Zero
The results are in: we have zero embryos.
The eggs looked good, the sperm looked good, but nothing happened. The lab was very much surprised. No ICSI was tried, it was too late.
Needless to say, I'm in shock.

I know this is not sufficient, but I am so very sorry... I am saddened by your news and don't even begin to know what to say. Know I'm thinking of you...
OMG, Lut. I don't even know what to say. I am so sorry that this has happened. This is all just so unfair.
Oh, no, Lut. No! I'm so terribly sorry. I wish I could come over and comfort you somehow, though I know there's no comfort to be had right now.
SHIT. I could just go kick something.
So, so sorry Lut. This is bringing back such strong feelings for me and I am so sorry. After our 1st IVF w/ no fertilization I cried and cried and cried. Please let me know if I can do anything for you in any way. The feelings of disappointment are so incredibly strong. I am truly sorry.
I'm so sorry. I know there are no words that could make it better... it's so unfair.
I am so sorry. You are in my thoughts...
OMG, I am so sorry. There just aren't words.
Oh nooooooooo! Oh no!
I'm in shock too. How I HATE the zero thing. How I hate it. I'm sad, but mostly I am angry and in disbelief and so sorry! Nobody ever should have to go through this.
Big hug from my side, if you want to talk via i.e. MSN or Yahoo Messenger let me know and I switch it on later tonight or I could call you?

Oh my god I too am in shock.
I'm just stunned. I hope that you can get some answers becuause this fucking blows.
I wish I could give you a hug. You are very, very much in my thoughts.
damn.
Oh my god. What a shock. I am so, so sorry for you and the husband.
Damn. I wish I could stop time and go back and ICSI your eggs.
Lut, I'm so sorry. That really blows.
Lut, this is so horrible. I am so, so sorry. It sucks to feel like everything is going great, and then all the sudden somebody slams on the brakes. That's how I felt with our one lone embryo, (which doesn't really look all that promising at this point either.)
I join the others in saying how unfair and sucky this is. I am also angry that this is so difficult for all of us.
We are here for you, Lut. I hope that can bring you some comfort. Sending you and your husband a hug...
I'm so sorry.
fuck.
Oh no!
I am just so sorry for you.
Crap this just sucks.
oh no, Lut, this is horrible news - you must feel dreadful. I'm so sorry.
I feel a bit odd posting this as I'm not a good commenter, just a (very assiduous) lurker. I mean you the best, so please forgive me if it's the wrong time to bring up someone else's story while you are licking your wounds.
I just wanted to remind you of Mellie's story over at iftheredsoxcanwin.blogspot.com. They had zero fertilisation on her first IVF earlier this year. Second time round they used ICSI and she is happily pregnant. I hope the same will happen for you.
Fuck fuck fuckity fuck.
I'm so very sorry.
What the hell??? How awful for you, I am so sorry. I hope somehow, you get some answers. Are your RE's giving you any insight?
I am so terribly sorry this happened.
NOOOOOOOOOOO! I am thinking of you today as I can't imagine your frustration and sadness by this news.
Oh Lut, I'm so sorry. Is there nothing they can do to try to figure out what happened (other then trying ICSI next time?)
Crap - and after such a great looking cycle too.

That is just absolutely bloody awful. My initial response when I saw this on bloglines was unprintable, so i will do like kath and just go and kick something. Unfuckingbelievable.
OH Lut, this is fucking unbelievable. I am so, so sorry- I wish I had words for you.
I just can't get my head around it....
Wow - I am so sorry. I just don't know what else to say.
How crushing! I'm so, so sorry.
I'm speechless. This sucks beyond words.
Motherfucker!! I know the despair and the anguish all too well and my shoulder is here for you, Lut.
I am so very sorry. Thinking of you.
{{hugs}} Thinking of you.
((hugs)) my heart broke when I read your post. You are in my thoughts and prayers
Fuck! I'm in shock, did not expect this (who does?)
It's so devastating to have lost all those eggs.
Take heart in the story Carrie P just left.
All along I know you've been in fear of this situation, take care.
Shit, Lut. Shit. I guess you know why the IUI wasn't working now. Thankfully you still have ICSI up your sleeve, although it's pretty small consolation on a day like today, I'm sure. If you want secret hope stories about people who went through this and triumphed the second try around, come and find me, but I won't force them on you today.
Bea
Wow, I am so sorry. My heart goes out to you.
I am so so sorry, Lut. Sending hugs.
Nina (Stella/Ben) sent me over here. I'm so sorry. How awful. I've had embryos explode in the petri dish (leading to a cancelled transfer) and its a similar hell. I'm really, really sorry you have to go through this.
Oh good grief..I am so so so sorry Lut! I can't imagine what you feel right now. Hugs sweetie, hugs!
Oh Lut, I am so so sorry to hear about your news. I can only imagine how you feel right now.
I know it may not be welcome right now, and send me a virtual slap in the face if you like, but ditto what Carrie said... this happened to a friend of mine, and she is now 22 weeks with a FET from IVF #3, in which they finally decided to use ICSI.
I am thinking of you.
Oh Sweetie-I am so sorry. There are no words to describe the level of unfair suck that is. I'm around if you need to talk...
Dear Lut, I'm just checking in to say I'm thinking of you all the time. In fact, we're probably all thinking of you so much, you have a terrible buzzing in your ears on top of everything else.
If only thoughts were changes...
I am just as shocked as you are and so very sorry. The waiting time to hear fertalization results is so nerve wracking, it breaks my heart to think of you getting that shitty news.
Lut--I'm so sorry. I just heard. I wish there were magic words to say right now that could move back time.
I'm so very sorry. Every failed cycle is such a blow, but this much be extra hard because the shock comes before hope even has a chance.
I know from personal experience that being told how "rare" your situation is, is no consolation!
Give yourself some time to heal and we'll be here to cheer on the ICSI try when you're ready.
So very sorry for your news.
Oh, Lut. I'm so sorry.
