Hi everyone,

Interesting to read about doing egg pickup when you only had a few large ones and alot of little ones. I had my pre egg pick up scan on Wednesday and had a 21, 20, 19, 18 and then around 10 between 12 and 16. I was told I had the choice of trying for egg pick up on Friday when I might get 3 or possibly 4 eggs, or I could wait and stay on the hormones for a couple more days in the hope that the smaller ones will grow and I might have the chance of 10 eggs. The nurse suggested that waiting was better so that is what I am doing - Egg pick up on Monday (the larger ones will be gone by then). I'm very anxious and hoping I have made the right choice as I wonder if the ones which have grown faster might have provided the better quality eggs. Oh well too late to stress about it now.

This is my first cycle of IVF and I have been on 225 gonal-F and had no side effects (thankfully).
