    Arielle - its good they are warning you. they told me that it looked like i would only have 2-3 follies the correct size at epu but i ended up with 7 of which 5 became blasties! so maybe just slug it out and hope for the best. you might only need one good embie. but of course its entirely your choice. maybe discuss with your FS or clinic nurse tomorrow what they feel would be the best choice for you. take care...

    BW, Mon, and Sonya - thanks for your replies!
    Smithy - can't wait to hear how today has gone.
    Mon - I am so so sorry to hear the evil crone has arrived. My heart goes out to you. I completely understand why you're feeling angry and frustrated. Did they not tell you your follies were still small, and give you a choice if you wanted to push on or not?? Ofcourse, being 1st cycle for you they were no doubt being ultra-cautious about OHSS, and maybe weren't able to give you such a choice (?hospital protochol) but it still would have been nice for them to have informed you more of your situation before EPU. It feels a lot like these clinics don't tell us a lot of the ins & outs sometimes, and when you ask q's, they are not all that forthcoming at times. V.frustrating! Good on you, however, for being strong enough to give yourself a break. I hope you'll be feeling 'normal,' before long. Thinking of you.
    Sonya - thanks so much for your words last night. It was exactly what I needed to hear. Ofcourse, my result may end up being different to yours, but it's great to know there's still hope of getting more eggies, and that maybe just maybe, it could result in a BFP (as you've so bewdifully demonstrated - yay!!).

    OUR DECISION:-
    DH & I have decided to keep our chins up and forge ahead with this cycle. We are very much hoping that those 3 follies contain awesome qual eggies, and that a couple of other follies will have caught up by Friday, and provide us with some surprise eggies also. So here's hoping!!!!!
    As I am incredibly tired, I have decided to take off Wed. & Thurs this week also, so perhaps some R&R will help plump up those other follies *fingers crossed*
    Take care all! Will keep you updated.
    Arielle
