Hi all,
NIcole - thanks for your wishes, yes all legs, fingers and toes crossed.

KitKat72 -
I hope your 6 eggies are getting on well.
thanks so much for all the info on AMH. I hadn't been told about that, and I'm 39 y/o. I see some of their methods as a bit hit and miss. I was surprised they didn't adjust the Gonal F (follicle stimulating hormone) after they found a low number of follicles. Increasing it may have given me a few more eggs and maybe an embryo to freeze. they had me on Gonal F 150 units on my first cycle, tonight I start on Gonal F 225 units. I suppose each place or FS have there choices in what to test for. Gosh, maybe they did test me, I'll ask them next Tuesday. I know when we started on this, they didn't even check my fertility, they just went ahead and said well the sperm is behaving badly, you need ICSI. Naughty spermies.


As for me - I feel a lot more relaxed going into this IVF down reg ICSI cycle. A lot less nervous. It has really helped reading the forums. my attitude last time was this must work or else I will be devastated. (yes and I was devastated ) Now I've learnt from all the girls that you take what you can from it, and what can you do with what's out of your control anyway. I think having 3 weeks holiday also helps.
Yesterday I asked the nurse about light sedation instead of having a GA this time round. She said that last time I didn't actually have a GA at all. It was sedation. No tube down the throat. Sedation good enough that I didn't even wake up while they do all their prodding around. Anyway, I need to take each step at a time. Follicles, EPU and fertilisation comes first.
as for Synarel, yesterday started to get some headaces after 2 weeks on it, so hopefully starting the Gonal F tonight might help balance that out. Maybe the headaches might go away.
