Updated Fert Report!

I just got a call from the RE this morning, and all 6 of mine are hanging on!  They said that they're all looking great, and scheduled my 5 day transfer for 9am on Sunday. They try to transfer only 1 when possible, and said that they wouldn't do more than 2, but will make the final decision based on what things look like the day of.

 

I'd been really nervous this morning, but I'm SO happy to get this news.  Keeping my fingers crossed that the next 48 hours go well, but I like having the chance to be hopeful!

 

Question about the ET - is the bed rest afterwards just to help implantation/keep it from falling out (lol) or is the procedure physically taxing, too?  I had a practice transfer before the cycle started, but I wasn't sure if that was all it was, or if there was more?



married 7/21/07; ttc since 2/2011
me 31, minor endo; him 32, minor MFI
laparoscopy 5/12; uterine septum corrected
failed IUIs 6/12, 8/12, 9/12
IVF #1 - started stimming 11/24, ER on 12/4, ET on 12/9, beta at 11dp5dt - 417! BFFP!

Awesome!  I haven't been through ET yet, but my understanding is that the procedure is not taxing, should be just like your mock transfer, but with full bladder and ultrasound guidance.  The bed rest is to help implantation.  Good luck on Sunday!
TTC #1 7/10, Me (31)- Dx DOR (AMH 0.6); DH (30)- normal
BFP on Cycle #8. Natural M/C at ~8 weeks
IUI #1 and #2 (8/12, 9/12)- 50 mg Clomid + Ovidrel = BFNs
IVF #1 (EPP) 13R/10M/9F, 5DT 1-4AA blast, beta #1-148, beta #2-322, 5 frosties!
3/18/13 - It's a Girl!
4/18/13 - A/S- baby looks perfect, but partial placenta previa

Wonderful news on your fert report! The transfer was the easiest part of the whole process! The bed rest is to help with implantation and I was given the ok to go to work the next day.....even though my hubby insisted on bedrest all weekend lol. I guess you can say it helped!

Yeah for 6! The transfer was easy. I was given a Valium, got a picture of the embies, and then the transfer. The worst part was the full bladder.
TTC #1 since 2008. IUI #1: Clomid+trigger=BFN. IUIs #2-4: Femara+Follistim+trigger=BFNs.
IVF #1, Nov 2012: Bravelle+Menopur. 17R, 12M (all ICSIed), 6F. 5 day transfer of 2 embies=BFN. 2 embies frozen.
FET #1: started BCPs April 2013.

So exciting to be so close to transfer! Are you leaning one way or the other on how many to transfer? I go back and forth... I haven't had an ET, but I think the bedrest is just for implantation. I have restrictions for bedrest, then pelvic rest, no strenuous activity, and no lifting over 10 lbs until pregnancy test. GL!!
Me: 28; DH: 35 1/2008 -- Started TTC
3/2009 -- FD discovered at 17 weeks
1/2011 -- Lap and HSG reveal Stage IV Endo and both tubes blocked.
4/2012 -- Consult with RE for IVF#1 -- All bloodwork and SA are normal -- Repeat HSG - SURPRISE! Both tubes are open.
May, June, August 2012 -- IUI#1-3 -- Letrozole + Bravelle + Ovidrel trigger = BFN
9/2012 -- Lap#2 to remove endo and Hysteroscopy

IVF#1 (Long Lupron) -- 12/6 ER - 20R 11F * 12/11 ET - Transferred 2 excellent blasts *
Beta #1 79.7 * Beta #2 240 * It's a GIRL!!
