Trying to Get Pregnant

IF Testing & Treatment w/o Aug 26

**This is a place for those of us who have already started TTC, but have started infertility testing and/or treatments. You can express your thoughts, feelings, and frustrations on infertility. TTC can be a long journey naturally, then add in the difficulties associated with infertility, and it becomes a whole new ballgame. The road to infertility can be lonely, frustrating, and complicated, so let's make this a place where we can vent, ask questions, and support one another. Feel free to resurrect this thread at any point in the week if you have something to say. Treat this as an ongoing conversation.

Diagnosis (if you've been):

Status (TI/ICI/IUI/IVF/FET/benched):

What are you doing this cycle? (Testing? Treatment?):

How are things going?:

Any questions?:

GTKY: What are your favorite sports to watch (in the Olympics or elsewhere)?

Re: IF Testing & Treatment w/o Aug 26

  • Diagnosis (if you've been): Unexplained

    Status (TI/ICI/IUI/IVF/FET/benched): IVF then Benched

    What are you doing this cycle? (Testing? Treatment?): IVF/egg retrieval, prep for surgical hysteroscopy

    How are things going?: As well as I could have hoped. We went through with the Thursday retrieval and while we don’t have the final blastocyst count, so far things are looking promising 🤞 breakdown of results in spoiler.

    We retrieved 15 eggs (which is truly wild, we never saw more than 14 follicles of any size on the ultrasound)! 11 were mature, and 9 fertilized normally. Should have a blast count by Friday, then just have to wait for the biopsy results of PGT-A and PGT-M testing.

    So now we’re looking ahead to a surgical hysteroscopy on September 9. Back on OCPs. They did tell me today that they’re hopeful no further follow-up care will be needed, so I’ll just have to heal up nicely and then we can be cleared for an FET.

    Any questions?:

    GTKY: What are your favorite sports to watch (in the Olympics or elsewhere)? The summer Olympics are one of my favorite things! Hubs joked that he needed them to end so he could have is wife back. Fave events include track and field—especially the distance races, gymnastics, triathlon, and sport climbing.

  • A rare midweek update, since we got our final results for this cycle:

    We’ve got 6 new lil bb blastocysts on ice 🤗 They’ve been biopsied for genetic testing. Given my age we expect ~50% to be euploid, and then we’ll have to wait and see and hope none inherit both my and my husband’s genetic mutations (carriers who inherit just one mutation would be ok with us since they are essentially unaffected).
