Glad to hear this retrieval went well. Hopefully the embryo quality will also benefit from lower dose stim meds and a Lupron trigger. 🙏🏾🤞🏽 You’re amazing! So excited for you and the days yet to unfold. Sending you loads of baby dust! 😘

[@cspencer1810]

This is such a great update so happy for you about your results and no OHSS and 20 eggs is still amazing! Also presumably because you’re not freezing them this time maybe you’ll have a higher amount in the end?

[@SaraMaria83]

Well we are already down to 10 on day 1 and I had 18 on day 1 last time AFTER thawing them. But you never know! Maybe I’ll get lucky and have more of the 10 make it to blast! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼❤️❤️❤️

[@hanafri8]

Good morning. I can see you looksick - so sorry. I hope you are going to have several perfect embryos this time arround :) It's such an exhausting and draining process - all the very best for you. ♡

[@SaraMaria83]

Thank you so much, Hanneke! 🥰 Yeah I think the anesthesia takes a little while to get out of my system completely!

[@inkerikavantera]

It's the quality that counts in our age unfortunately. Best of luck. 💓💓 Mammogram is easy peacy for me as well. I haven't had any genetic testing done other than me and my brother's dna. That was pretty interesting though!

[@SaraMaria83]

Yes absolutely! I know that far too well since I only had one out of my 9 blasts last time 😩 It’s crazy how some woman don’t mind mammograms at all ans some find them excruciating! Glad you and I don’t mind them ☺️ Genetic testing is so fascinating isn’t it! Thank you for your well wishes 🥰🥰🥰

[@justinehelenmarie1690]

Praying for you ❤

[@SaraMaria83]

Thank you so much, Justine! ❤️❤️❤️

[@CaliforniaFarmGirl]

So nerve wracking! Hopefully fewer eggs this time means better quality!!! 🙏🏻 Glad ohss didn’t strike.

[@SaraMaria83]

I sure hope so!!! 🤞🏼❤️🙏

[@annkuhlman6603]

It only takes 1 embryo! I’m praying for you!!!

[@SaraMaria83]

I really want two children but yes! Only one embryo per baby 😂 I just worry about more failed transfers and hoping for more than one shot this time 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

[@fixie650]

You eat a lot of special food and take many supplements. Do you think you could make a video on just that stuff? I get confused about the dates, the fries, the drinks, etc.

[@SaraMaria83]

I do have my PCOS video where I talk about all my supplements! The fries are just superstition and have absolutely no benefit 😂😂😂 I will put it on my list of videos to do! Thank you for the suggestion!

[@mindymiller8203]

Dense breast tissue doesn’t help with the pain of a mammogram! At least not for me but I am a 32H

[@SaraMaria83]

Ahhh ok I don’t know why they don’t hurt me at all then 😂 I guess I’m just lucky. I’m only a 32D so maybe that’s why??? Who knows.

[@cyndizebra6119]

You also used a different donor this time so maybe that will make a difference in the genetics.❤️❤️❤️❤️Take care and get some rest!!!

[@SaraMaria83]

I sure hope so, Cyndi!!! 🤞🏼💞🥰 Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@sabrinar9101]

Will you transfer one ? Or have you thought about transferring two ?

[@SaraMaria83]

My clinic will not transfer more than one embryo if you are under 40, so just one!

[@sabrinar9101]

@@SaraMaria83 i wondered how that worked.

[@SaraMaria83]

@@sabrinar9101 every clinic is different so some are totally fine transferring more embryos at any age!
