I guess I’m just ranting or just sad. I feel angry because last year we had two normal embryos and we failed to use Lupron even though we know I have endometriosis and I take this is my fault because I was supposed to know better. So those didn’t work. I had to cancel a cycle in February for a lead follicle. And my April retrieval we just got that genetic report back and both of my blasts were not genetically normal. I turned 41 this summer. This is sounding more and more like it’s just not going to work for me and I’m having a hard time holding onto the faith. Trigger warning, we do have a living child so most of you may not want to even read this but we’ve been trying IVF for two years now and so far no more success. I just don’t know when someone knows it’s the end. I will say that I’m sad and all of this stinks.

I’m 40, as title says I had a retrieval 4/21. We had to cancel a cycle in February for poor response after having a great retrieval with five blasts last year. That cycle we had two euploids. One ended in miscarriage and one failed.

I got six eggs this cycle which I wasn’t very excited for. Day 1 only two had fertilized though all six were mature.

Got the message both made it to day 5 blast. My clinic uses poor, fair, good, excellent scale vs 5AA etc. I had one excellent and one good for biopsy. I’ll hear of course in a few weeks.

I’m shocked and excited and worried. Also fearful more transfers will fail. (My only LB used Lupron before and for some reason my clinic skipped it the last two times. If there is a this time we are doing all testing and doing Lupron since I have known endo).

Just sharing. I’m surprised and happy for the little critters. I expected the worst after that poopy upfront attrition.

Thanks for reading
