Friday 27 October 2017Fly to the UK
Saturday 28 October 20177:30am arrive at clinic for scan 7:45am egg collection RESULT – 2 eggs collected 11am – called embryologist: neither egg was mature, so none could be frozen

Note: I didn’t have blood tests done at every scan. The scan results usually determined when and what I needed to have my blood tested for. Keeping the blood tests to a minimum helped keep costs down a little.

RESULT – 2 eggs collected, none mature so none frozen

Another unexpected hurdle – 28 October 2017, day of collection
