Round 1 ✖️

Absolutely devastated, round 1 of IVF a complete failure. I was doing a shared cycle as I have good AMH and they thought I’d get a good number of eggs. They collected 8 eggs on Monday, so 4 for me, 4 for the recipient. Out of my 4, 2 fertilised and by day 3 we had a 3 cell and a 5 cell (6 is the target). Just ha...

IVF cycles and cost

I really hope this question makes sense…. If you have IVF and they get a good number of eggs and they are all fertilised etc but only put one in you and you freeze the others, if that first cycle fails would it make another cycle cheaper as they’d be able to use the spare eggs? I’m very aware a round of IVF is expe...

Do I just do it and accept that I will be...

First Positive 💫

We got our positive today on our second round of FET.
