Started my CD1 before transfer!
First time I’m ever been excited to start my AF! Started my first dose of birth control. This means my body is preparing for transfer coming up and I couldn’t be more happy about it. It’s my first ever transfer and I feel so positive about it. I’m nervous for sure, but I’ve wanted this baby since I was a child. Can’t wait to have my BFP!

Transfer 9/17!!!
My first transfer is tomorrow! I’m so excited an nervous! We’ll be transferring one embryo per my clinic’s policy. Even though I’m secretly hoping for twins (please no negative vibes about twins or two embryos, thank you). I’m looking forward to tomorrow and nourishing myself during the tww.

Starting ivf tomorrow
I am starting IVF tomorrow. Starting with estrace for a week then will start injections a week or so later. I am 37 years old with low AMH and high FSH and endometriosis. I also suffer from pretty bad anxiety mostly health related anxiety. I am so nervous. I am afraid I am going to feel really sick or out of control or make my emotions so bad that I start having panic attacks. I don’t know if I can handle it but I am forcing myself to do this and be an adult. I’m afraid also of gaining a lot of weight. Anyone have any words of encouragement? Am I going to feel horrible and lose my mind?

First time IVF journey
I just had my first embryo transfer this past September 3rd. I’m feeling some changes down there. Like puffiness. We are doing natural transfer so I’ve been doing progesterone suppositories every night. Could this be causing the puffiness? Also have had some cramping so I pray it’s my little embryo sticking. Also is there a way to change on your profile into that you are doing IVF?

Early embryos with no grades 👏
I recently had egg retrieval and mange to get 14 eggs and 9 were mature. 6 made it to day 3 and got 3 early blastocyst at day 5.It will be an FET for me but they said it's an early blastocyst so they couldn't give grading as they were slow growing embryos. I'm scared as they said they are slow growing. It's my second cycle and I'm just exhausted with this process. Anyone had sismilar slow growing embryos that came up to a successful pregnancy??
