Please tell me this means we are all getting good news on Friday as my first stim scan is then as well....
Meo - Bummer about the double up. Hope you are okay with the injections still, I am sure they will be fine though.
Cadence - sounds like you are tracking along nicely, with lots of potentials eggies on the go. Hopefully with all those follies you are still feeling great.
Danyelle - I too am pretty sure I've had a couple of CP's, but like Meo, its just sometimes not meant to be. I hope the next round will bring you the everlasting joy of a bub.
Loops, esperan, K1 hoping you are all feeling okay atm.
I'm fine, just waiting waiting waiting nervously until Friday. It can't get here fast enough for me this week
Hey all
Cadence: Sounds like things are going well with you. All the best for the EPU next week - let us know how you go.
Meo: Wishing you all the best for Friday
Danyelle: Sorry to hear about your biochemical pregnancy. I had a biochemical pregnancy (non IVF) some years ago and it was very disappointing and painful. Thinking of you.
We discovered on Sunday that our most of our fertilised eggs were lagging in cell division, there was however one "shinning light" which was selected to be transfered and is now 'brewing naturally'! Over the next few days the lab watched the remaining eggs (or the lill'ens in the lab as I like to call them!) and all but one didn't progress. (They kinda of hinted at this on the transfer day so we half expected that news). But one litt'en did make it and its been put on ice - yay!
Now we are just siting and waiting and hoping. BT booked for 7 May.
K1, that's awesome news! One in the oven and one on ice is a fantastic result. Sending you heaps of sticky vibes and got everything crossed for the 7th!
Good luck for your scan today, S'rose. Hope you get the results you're looking for.
Good luck to you as well Cadence, hope they set you a nice early egg pick up so that you can relax for the rest of the day when it happens!
Danyelle, hope you're taking it easy and being kind to yourself. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, it's gonna happen for all of us.
Possums and esperan, hope the synarel headaches aren't getting to you too badly! I had a doosy yesterday, but wore off by hometime (funny how that works, eh? )
AFM, had my scan this morning. Double dose is working, but SOOOOOO SLOOOOOOWLY! I have ANOTHER bloody scan on Monday. This is starting to get frustrating and I'm wondering if I'll ever get to EPU! But on the plus side, I knew things weren't ready to go yet as I've only today started to get the sore ovaries from the swelling. Had fluid retention for two weeks (since starting the injections) and not been able to fit in any pants except my jeans since (!), but today I feel like things will be ready. I suspect that EPU will be Wednesday next week and if it's not I think I'll scream!
Another plus is that I'm going away this weekend for my permaculture course, so get to hang out with Mum and learn lots, so will be well distracted! Wishing everyone all the best and I'll be back with more scintilating updates on Monday. Have a great weekend everyone.
Hi all,
Sounds good S'Rose will be thinking of you as you get closer to your epu!
Hi Meo, sorry that things are going so slowly for you, believe me I have been there and understand how annoying it is but I am sure you will get there soon
Loops, Esperan and Possums, how are you all going? Hope things are well with you.
K1, am hoping to hear some fantastic news from you soon.
Danyelle, hope you are hanging in there and are feeling okay.
AFM I am scheduled for my epu on Monday, will be having my trigger tomorrow night, am feeling excited to get to this part but am also nervous as it is unknown territory. It is great to have all your support though!
I'm still alive, I was a little depressed but hey life goes on.
I went to FS yesterday and picked up everything to start my FET cycle. Started injection last night of Puregon 50 units, which was a lot better than the IVF cycle which was 450 units per night.
I had about 20 questions for them, we spoke about embryos and also about my age. Things seem a little clearer now for me : )
I was reading that a lot of you use Synarel spray. My sister has been doing IVF for four years now (with no success) and the Synarel gave her terrible headaches and sinus problems that her FS put her on Lucrin. Seeing that we both use the same FS - I actually requested the use of Lucrin for my IVF Cycle. (Once daily injection exact same time each day). I had no side effects at all.
I would also like to mention another thing that might help someone. After receiving the result for DH, Tunel Assay and Sperm Analysis:
DNA fragmentation was just above 20%,
Shape was 4% they prefer it above 15%,
Motility 12% only half moving and they prefer it above 25%
Please note that the above is common over a certain age group.
FS asked us to buy the following tablets and said they have to be taken daily by DH until I am pregnant. So here?s the list.
Centrum A -Z, 1 Tablet Daily
Co-enzyme Q10 - 100mg 1 tablet a day
Vitamin E 1000 units 1 Tablet a day
Vitamin C 1000 units 1 Tablet a day
FS said that taking all of this has been tested to improve sperm quality.
Wow looks like everyone is doing the same thing at once.
Meo and K1 good luck with the blood test for the 7th May, sending you both lots of sticky vibes. The two weeks waiting is the longest. Thinking of you both.
Cadence, best of luck with your EPU on Monday.
S?Rose, wishing you the best of luck for your EPU on the 7th May.

Hi Ladies
Sorry I have been MIA for a little while - ive been moving into my new house.
Danyelle - sorry about your chemical pregnancy - ive got no idea what that is like but I feel for you. GL with your transfer
Meo - Your follies sound good. Good luck for your EPU - thanks for asking about me.
K1 - GL on the 7th
S'rose, Cadence and everyone - goodluck with the waiting, jabbing, EPU and ET's.
AFM - Just waiting to get on the IVF journey still - which will be happening June/July hopefully. Ive been reading some of the other threads and comments about IVF procedures and it all doesnt sound good so I really hope that we just have a miracle happen naturally.
