    Popping in

    Hi Ladies
    Just popping in to say hi. Im not getting on BB very often as Im so busy and trying to keep occupied and mind off the wait.
    There are also so many people in here - its hard to do personals. But I have been reading everyones progress.

    There are a lot of you with good follies etc - good luck with the transfers etc. And goodluck with the wait for those waiting for treatment to start or waiting for results.

    Thanks everyone for thoughts and wishes for my firt IVF cycle starting. ATM I am taking the pill and so onto the nasal stuff etc soon I suppose. And have the counsellling session on 11th June.
    A bit nervous but happy about getting on the road with it.

    All the best to everyone x

    Hi everyone,

    I'm sorry I don't have time for perssies, will try to pop back in over the weekend. Sending to you all.

    I have been sooooo busy lately. My apologies in advance if I am only on here from time to time. I'm cheering for you all from the sidelines.

    I had my preliminary ultrasound today. The lady said that I did a really good job of filling my bladder and she got me to duck to the toilet and let some of it out so she could do the ultrasound properly I was a bit nervous when she then got me to get changed for the internal ultrasound, but she was lovely and it wasn't too bad. She said that I have a retroverted (sp?) uterus. I remember some ladies talking about that on another thread, but not sure exactly what it means. She said that it's actually quite a common thing to have.

    I am at day 8 today and she said that I have one dominant follie on my right side that is 13mm. She also counted 22 follies on my left side and 25 on my right. She said that these numbers are good considering it is a natural cycle. Fingers crossed this carrys on to a successful IVF cycle.

    to you all.

    Smile quick update

    Hi Girls, just a quick update... from the 23 eggs, we got 14 fertilized with ICSI and 2 fertilized on standard IVF!!! Because of OHSS risk, they were all frozen for a transfer next month...

    Hi all,
    First some quick Persies;
    TL- Thanks for the info.
    MrsP- I think your friend is so good to be understanding. That takes a lot of pressure off.
    MissK- I think I need a copy of that book
    Spring- I don't think sleeping on your tummy is bad in the 1st Trimester.
    Misty- Doc put me on provera as well. Maybe that's why AF came only one day late. That blastie transfer sounds exciting, GL with your TWW
    esperan- Well done on the EPU- rest up and take care of yourself.
    B2B- Thanks, I did have that app. I'll just blame the syneral for sending me even more loopy.
    Juniper- GL with you EPU tomorrow.
    Cass- hi, good to see things are on the move.

    AFM- well AF arrived on Monday, so only one day late in the end. I had 1st BT today. all good. I got the go ahead to start injecting purgeon(sp?) tomorrow night. I have mixed emotions about it all but am taking one day at a time.

    Hi ladies,

    I've had a very long two days so no personals today. I couldn't wait for my BT today so I did a POAS on Tues night. The result was negative. I did the test again in the morning, again negative. DH was a sweety and took me out to dinner last night to take my mind off it. Today I dutifully took the BT and guess what... negative. And so we sit and wait until we are ready to try again.

    Girls, I am at a loss to find out what I should and shouldn't be doing, eating, drinking (fluids) etc, during the TWW. Next time I want to know I am doing everything in my power to ensure a positive result but I can't find this kind of information anywhere. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Sorry for the somber post. I hope everyone is doing well.
