Thanks for answering my ? I was just concerned at it happening already kwim? Guess Ill have to find some clothes that hit my tum for the next little while
mitf - sorry and hug. Yeah if this doesn't take I would want to take a month off too. What's is the norm guys.. do you girls go straight back into it??
Tracy - I def started feeling bloated and ovary pain straight away
They got 17 eggs today... feeling right sore!! This is my first go - jeepers not usually a winger but I can't even sit down on the couch and I am sooo afraid of going to the toilet and ahem My ovary paain lessened off but now its the mid to back region which is painful... waddling around like a duck at the moment
Cass & Krikkit - sounds like your follies are coming along nicely. Keep us posted on when your EPU will be. I think you'll be about a week ahead of me.
Onja - Congratulations on 17 eggs!! That's great news. Fingers crossed that you get good fertilisation rates.
Tracy - how are going? I too should warn you that bloating is just part of the IVF journey. Hope you can find some comfy clothes to wear.
Mitf - already PM'd you but didn't want to leave you out of my reply. Hope you're going ok.
AFM - Have had 4 gonal-f injections so far and have my first U/S and BT tomorrow to check progress. Not feeling too bloated (yet), but I'm sure that will come soon enough. At this stage, my EPU is scheduled for Friday 4th Sept, but that will all depend on how quickly / slowly thing are developing I guess. I'm hoping it's the Friday though, so I have the weekend to recover.
Have decided that I'm doing this cycle with 100% positivity this time around (am usually pretty pessimistic and always expecting the worst to happen). This time though, I'm only going to be positive with my fingers crossed that this cycle is going to be the one.
Onya - The best best advice I can give you is to rest all you can, and drink water, the longer you lay down after EPU the quicker you will recover, and wow ... Well done on a great EPU
Im good today, so far and blaoting isnt as bad as yesterday wierd.
But I had to tell you all this.......I staggered out of bed, half asleep....snorted my Synarel and whacked a needle in my tummy, then realised I hadnt dialed up the dose yet
What an idiot
Like as if I really like stabbing myself in the stomach
Ohh that made me laugh... and it hurts to laugh but also felt good!
Don't you all think these hormones make you super dopey!! I have been doing some dopey stuff whilst taking these hormones. Sometimes I couldn't even remember basic words... felt like Homer Simpson: "food - need dig.. metal.. thing"
I have been TTC since July 2007... on and off... probably more off than on the past year! Unexplained, had mild endo removed in March which has helped my AF sooo much.
Anyway if I don't fall preg by end of year I will go for IVF.. of course I don't want too, I did have a psychic say I would fall spring this year, which is now... so here's hoping
It is so hard to talk to friends etc about this... i keep it all to myself and do get a bit sad, but I have started to ensure I live life to the full and not give up on anything and not stop planning things 'just incase'.
good luck to each and every one of you and look forward to 'getting to know you' all better
