Of the remaining 5 embryos, none made it to freeze.

Shit.

We are beyond bummed but trying not to dwell on it.

This cycle has to work as we can't afford to do it again. We hoped that with a donor, we would have some to freeze for future efforts, making it worth our $30,000 investment.

This cycle has to work. Please, work.

Try to hang on to the thought that you transferred your BEST two embryos.

Sending implantation vibes your way...

I'm SO sorry to hear this. Please remember it just takes 1, just 1. I'm definitely praying for you during this 2ww...

Sticky vibes coming from here!

Sorry...but like Summer said...you transfered the best of the bunch. I'll be praying for those little guys to burrow in and get nice and comfy for the long haul

Oh I hate hearing that. Damn. But I have a really super good feeling about the little ones who made it, so keep thinking those positive nurturing thoughts!! I'm on pins and needles for you ...

Thanks everybody.

That does make me feel better. The doc said we had a 70% chance so I'm focusing on that. I appreciate your support and optimism!

Bummer - but the best babes are in your uterus growing already!!!

I'm sorry to hear about the freeze but I'm seconding everyone's optimism...I'm checking in often and hope for you that you find moments of peace during the wait.

So sorry to hear that you were unable to freeze any of the remaining 5, but I KNOW it's because this is going to work and you won't need any of the other ones anyway. I am sending you tons of good thoughts and keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Don't let it bum you out -- I know, easier said than done...I'm in the same boat (none to freeze). Focus on what you do have....good embies in your belly. =) ++ thoughts.

Anne said...

I know this is a disappointment. Try to stay positive and don't stress out. Stress does terrible things to your body. And that body is working hard trying to take good care of those embies. You're in my thoughts.

Think positive thoughts! This same thing happened to a friend of mine-she had none leftover to freeze, but she's now 25 weeks pregnant with twins!!

I have been reading your blog for quite some time. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Stay positive!

Sucks you don't have any frosties but you did get the best of the bunch.

I've got everything crossed for you!

I'm so sorry that the other blasts didn't make it to freeze. I know how upsetting it can be. (none of the 4 we had left made it for freezing and I was very upset) It's harder to freeze blasts because they often don't continue to grow the extra day needed before freezing. But, as everyone else said, you know that the strongest little ones were transferred. I'm hoping and crossing everything possible for you. May the little ones already be burrowed in for a nice 9 month stay!
