The verdict of the first trial of IVF

It was the last Friday afternoon, 12 days after the embryo transfer, after the blood test in the morning, I was told that the implantation was not a success. I kind a knew because there was no sign of pregnancy like tenderness in my breasts or change on taste, but I was still trying to be hopeful and believing 50 % of the chance until the verdict was announced. But I have to admit that my guts was telling me that unfortunately. Well, even though I was so aware that it's always 50 % of chance of success and failure and I was ready for both good and bad news, still disappointing.

I know it's not the end. We have got three more embryos frozen ready to be transferred. But I have decided to have a bit of break before next one. I realized that my heart is more fragile than I thought. I think my heart will get hit deeply if it failed again. So, I want to make sure I feel that I'm up for it before I go on next one.

In the meantime, I will do my best to create the best condition for welcoming the next embryo. Keep taking Noni Juice and veggie juice, improve body circulation, feeling happy and positive= laugh and love a lot...!

IVF Day 82 Embryo Transfer !!!

OK. It's been a while so I don't know where to start. But main thing to write is my embryo transfer is done...!!!
On Tuesday last week, I was advised that I was ovulating and my embryo transfer is going to be on Sunday. It had to wait 5 days to match the days that took for my egg's fertilization before freezing. I was also told to take Pessaries which is a stuff shaped like a tampon to improve the condition of my womb to increase the chance of implantation from Friday.

I followed the instructions the rest of the week and the day came, Sunday. My husband came with me and we met the embryologist who had informed the state of my embryo on the phone. She told us my embryo is thawed well and it is at 10 cells stage and the cells are nicely together which is the ideal condition for the transfer. I was with my husband in the Theater, the operation room. We were told it was very easy procedure like pep smear and it was. it only took about 15 min but I had to rest on the bed for half an hour to let it settle.I will have blood test which will determine my pregnancy.

I'm feeling ... quite relaxed. In fact, I feel that I should be more excited. I was more excited when I found out the success of egg fertilization. I think I'm trying not have the hope too big in case it didn't go well. I've done everything I could so I will just believe the will of universe.
