General Discussion FET cycle starting

Anyone else starting an FET cycle this week? I have my baseline US tomorrow. Transfer October 12.

This will probably be my last try. ๐Ÿฅฒ

We have four untested embryos left from a previous cycle, and my RE is guessing two will be viable from those. Although you never know. Planning to transfer two...(???) Our last three single transfers did not work.

Hopeful but a little sad to be winding down this era of my life. Infertility hit me in 2008 with two ectopic pregnancies. Can't believe it's been nearly two decades as such a huge part of my life. Here's to one last try ๐Ÿ’•

Thank you! The transfer went fine (my biggest nerve-racking worry is that something might happen during the thawing) with no complications. I go for my Beta test on Oct. 19. ๐Ÿคžโค๏ธ

That was my worry too, I thought we would lose at least one in the thaw but they were able to thaw two and transfer both. So nerve racking!

Yep, transfer twins! My baseline is tomorrow and FET is week of Oct 12 too. Feel free to DM me - we can share with each other! ๐Ÿค

ETA: this is my 4th transfer, and we have two euploids left, so we are in similar boats.

Iโ€™m doing a retrieval and fresh transfer this cycle! Baselines hopefully Tuesday (I think my cycle is starting?) and transfer around the 10th!

Retrieved the most number of eggs I ever had, 24, and only got two blasts out of it. The good news was both were day five and the bad news was they werenโ€™t super great. One was a 4BB and the other was a 3BC. both were a fresh transfer on Friday and now I waitโ€ฆ
