Thanks for the well-wishes ladies!! I'm so excited to have my BT tomorrow. Am praying that it's baseline - because of my clotting disorder I can't go on the pill so am not sure what they'll have planned for me if I'm not baseline.
Anyway I'm feeling positive about it so fingers crossed. Fortunately the lab is just a couple of blocks away from my work - very convenient!

Here's a silly question - roughly how many days do you need to do the injections b4 EPU? I know it varies, but is it roughly 2 weeks? Trying to get an idea of a timeline...

Hope everyone has had a lovely Easter!

Hi MrsP, hoping baseline for you. I take a liong time to trigger but I think I am the exception to the rule.

AFM still jabbing away but very excited of to Melbourne in the morning with the girls to catch some shows and do some shopping. Have the ice ready for the drugs and the letter for security, sure to get stopped at every check point. Hope it will be all right. Talk when i/ get back.

Hi Saph,

have a great time in Melbourne. I am sure you know that yourself but just in case a quick tip as I did the same with my 1st cycle. I stupidly kept the syringes with the meds in my eski for the hand luggage - got obviously stopped and had to transfer them into my backpack and check them in....

Thanks sara, I didn't know that but I have to do the needle at the airport just before we board. They are the pen needles so hoipefully wont cause any problems. Will put all bar one in my suit case. So glad to see you made it to the TWW have my fingers and toes crossed for you, come on sticky baby.

MrsP- hope you are baseline and good luck with this cycle

Hi Everyone....I'm waiting to get back in here.....AF was supposed to arrive (according to normal cycle) however this probably won't be the case since stopping drugs last cycle......the waiting game. I'm waiting to start our first IVF cyle and of course can't do this until she arrives!!!! Driving me nuts. DH suggested to POAS.....i've done 3.....NONE have them have worked!!!! Blaaaaahhhh!!!!! Anyhoo I have been lurking for the past month and am hoping to join you on the NEW part of my journey soon!!

So Sara, you had to put your syringes, in the suitcase,with your clothes etc, and you could take the meds and iceblock on board the plane. ?

I wouldnt have thought of that. I was going to ask FS for a letter to say what the injections are for, but I realise they wouldnt want the needles on board the plane ..
