had a scan today..

[Georgette]

Hi girls, i havent posted for a while.. so i thought i would update you on my progress.
I am currently on day five of stimulation injections. today i had a scan and some blood works done. All in all i have already 27 follies and my blood test come back at 3000.
Clininc is really happy. i am reducing from 100iu to 75iu tmrw. and then another scan on friday to see what going on. i may be going on for ET early as 3 of my follies were already at 15mm and about 10 of them were at 11mm.
Im so happy today apart from belly ache and sore BB.
Anyways i thought i would share some good news.. i definately needed it after our loss earlier this year with the ectopic.

baby dust to you all
hugs

just living healthy as possible and started acupuncture for the next cycle. it is spring here so easier to feel good about diet, exercise etc. loving and enjoying my life as it is also helps.

Congratulations Georgette on your 27 follies. Wish you all the best with the EPU. I hope they get a lot of mature eggs and you have some to freeze.

Dusty- im in a town called colchester near london our capital city. It has been very cold and wet weather here, but i am none the less keeping up my mood. I have heard great things about acupuncture. good luck with that.
Max- thanks hunny, good luck to you too. im not sure where about you are with you ttc, because i dont get time to read anyones journals.
thanks to you both

Hi dusty,
Gosh it has all gone by to fast.. well it is wednesday the 3rd of october here and this evening will be my trigger injection, ready for friday egg retrieval.
I have loads of follies, i had another scan today i think 6 or 7 of them were over 18mm and ready to be retrieved. Im absolutely poopin myself about friday now but at the same time excited to get it all over with so i can get on the TWW. They will be putting 2 embies back in on monday so im due to test on the 22nd.
I have been relaxing this past week as i actually have nearly 40 follies weighing my overies down lol so been very uncomfortable. I feel like an incubator lol feeling very walm and suprisingly protective of my follies??? lol.
How about you.. how are you doing hunny?

wow that is great. best of luck with the trigger and EPU. have you got anything planned to do during the TWW to treat yourselves?

all good here. a couple more weeks until i start a flare cycle. been enjoying the TTC break but need to get back into it again. enjoying unseasonably warm spring weather (scary this early in spring).

[Georgette]

gosh its like wnter here, very cold... well so people say, with these hot flushes im still walking around without a jacket or coat LOL. Just a question, what is a flare cycle, we have so many different sayings in different countries im not always 100% sure LOL. Im glad to hear that you are ok and getting back into ttc soon, im sure everything will work for you this time round dusty.
I just had my trigger injection and boy did it hurt.
Anyways lap up the warm weather hunny, we dont have anything planned actually it didnt occure to me to plan anything. We both have so much going on at the moment, im a student part time and to be honest with all this ivf i have found it hard to concentrate. I find myself lurking on these threads more than anyhting else lol.
Any ways i will let you get on with your day as mine is slowly coming to an end.
I will keep you updated and will add a post to my thread here on friday too, to let you all know how the egg retrieval went.
Heres hoping we all get a BFP very very soon

hey G

at least there is a use for your hot flushes

glad you got the trigger out the way. bring on the EPU/ ET and then a bit of a break for G and DP. i look forward to hearing how it went.

a flare cycle is where you start the stims and lucrin when you get your AF and two weeks later have EPU. it is less controlled and you risk not getting follies the same size and O'ing before EPU, than a normal down reg cycle but i seem to respond better (well at least i did last time!). fingers crossed.

i hope the study picks up for you in the 2WW and of course there is always BB. do you have a UK forum you use as well? i wonder how different BB is to those in other countries.

ps btw i will be away until sun and will check then
