@ Mia's House

2006 has been a crazy and amazing year for me and my new husband. Besides finally getting married after 6 years together and buying our first house, we are now trying to have a baby via IVF. It's a lot to go through in less than a year, but so far it's been like a dream come true. This is my journal to share with you. Please feel free to post comments to my blog. For those who know who we are, comments are public, please don't post real names to protect everyone's privacy. Enjoy!

Reviewed cycle

We met with Dr. S this morning to review our IVF cycle. He explained that everything went perfect until after the transfer when the embryos failed to implant. He said he could see from all my blood levels that I had taken my meds as I should and my levels were perfect. My blood levels indicated that my endometrium was in good shape. He showed us photos of the embryos as they developed and everything looked normal and they appeared to be healthy. He said that sometimes the embryos that look the best may not always be the best and that it's possible that one of our frozen embryos will be the best. He thinks that the embryos failed to implant because my endometrium may have been just slightly ahead of the embryos and synchronization was off. He said that can happen sometimes in a fresh IVF cycle because of the stimulation hormones. In a FET that's not going to happen. They will make my endometrium just right then thaw and transfer the embryos. The embryos will have aproximately a 50% chance of implanting. We are still very hopeful and feel very fortunate to have our frozen embies. If we did not have them it would be all over for this round.
