    Hi girls good luck motherhood i bet it will be a BFP for you and jaki trigger tonight awsome not long now and you will be in the tww as for me i am so tired have worked some late nights and had to be up early for BT and U/S but i got todays results my E2 is 3005 so still a little high but ok to continue i have 21 follicles which is good but only 7 or 8 of those are big enough to to make it to EPU if i'm lucky one or two more might catch up in time but they doubt it as the others are getting quite big anyway have to have another BT and U/S wed to see whats happening so i am happy all is going well i would have liked more bigger follicles as we need a lot of eggs for testing how many good size follies did you have jaki i know you said 30 all up i have 21 but they only want the big ones i was a bit disapointed at 7-8

    That's not to bad ferrals. It is your first u/s too. Although I'm not impressed I had to have 4!
    Like I said they never tell me any results in detail, I don't know how you get so much info out of them. All I know is from the u/s report I took out if the films envelope, I have 35 follies, some big, lots medium and small.
    I must say I'm not impressed with the lack of personal attention from FS. Last time she rang me at least once, and this time nothing! I haven't actually spoken to her since febuary. The most contact I've had In the last few months is a couple of replys to my emails.

    Jaki-what do you mean you only 4 is that 4 on your 1st U/S or 4 big enough to have mature eggs you have like 30 follies i thought you would have heaps.

    Cool No Answer ......... Yet!

    Quick one!

    Just got a call from the Nurse who advised me that I will definately need to go in for a follow up blood test when we return from Fiji!!!

    FS is happy with where things are at today. Nurse advised that there are pregnancy hormones there and they want to see them increase and double etc, etc. When I asked she told me I was on 27!!!!!!

    Worst part is though, TMI warning, today when I have been to the toilet a couple of times, I have noticed blood. Not much really. So dont know what to think. Am disapointed really.

    Best be off. Need to finish packing for tomorrow as we fly out at 8.30am.

    Hope everyone has a great week coming whilst Im not here and my fingers are crossed for you all!!!

    Not everyone, and I'm sure it doesn't have a bad effect on everyone. We aren't sure if it was the overstim or the pregnyl that made me so sick but I felt fine till I had it so FS is going to skip it just incase. I'm having vaginal gel and estrogen tabs instead.

    Can i ask a question i am still a little worried over my E2 levels today was 6000 so they have doubled since monday i have read anything over 10,000 at EPU they worry about OHSS i am due to trigger sat night so if my levels double again in the next 2 days that will be 12,000 what was your level at trigger and does the E2 level still rise after EPU.

    Honestly I have no idea! Like I said they never told me anything other than all's well.
    As for after epu, I presume it still rises. Fs commented today they need our overies to keep pumping out the hormones to help et stick.
    Try not to worrie too much.

    Umm, you will be in pain but the only drugs you should have is a wee bit of pethadine. Unless your going under. The epu doesn't hurt but it feels uncomfortable. And embaressing but our fs makes you feel right at home. And the nurse & scientist in the room are awesome too. The worst part is the worried look on hubbys face.
    I may be monday too I'm hoping for my et!!
    Good luck tomorrow!
