I'm back from my EPU!
I have to say the procedure was not as bad as I thought it would be.
Was given a "mild general" as the anaethesist called it so was put to sleep.
Next thing I know I opened my eyes and just thought I had dozed off didnt even realise it was over until the nurse asked me how I was and told me we were done.
She said they got 4 follicles which was no suprise to me. Spoke to the FS soon after and he said everything was fine and all we can do now is wait and see how many fertalise.
So keepining my fingers crossed for good news tomorrow.
I dont know why but I feel a lot more positive now. I have accepted the fact I only have 4 follies and am now just excited about transfer which should be on thursday (if all goes well )
Kaydee when is your transfer, do you now how many eggs fertlised yet?
Nicole S good luck for tomorrow! :goodluck2: I hope all goes well!
KellyD - Yes I hated the Synarel too but unfortunateley for us we have to do it! Hope your FET goes according to plan and results in a BFP!
Possums I am keeping my fingers crossed for you! Hopefully in a week you will get a BFP!
Wishingbaby - 3 follicles is great, good luck over the next few days!
Smithy - When we want AF to come it doesnt! Just be patient I am sure it will be here soon.
Shelbee - good luck with your BT on the 15th and that BFP!
I'm glad it all went well LuckyStrike! I really hope you get good results from here and my fingers are crossed for you. My EPU last time wasnt as bad as I thought it would be either. Now take it easy and may they all fertilise
as for me....I am trying not to think about being in the TWW and what's happening inside my body, but it's ALWAYS in the back of my mind. Have more acupuncture on Friday. Sadly DH will be away for work on BT day (back in the afternoon though thankfully, because good or bad, I'll want him around)
Smithy- My sweet friend..has the wicked witch shown up yet.I went 63 days once without her and went to see my accupuncturist who bought her on within 1 hour of my treatment...just a thought for you. Am thinking of you always.
Wishing baby- I hope you and DH are getting busy!!
Kaydee- 22 is an unreal number..big congrats.
Nicole- All the best for EPU. I hope you get good quality little ones!!
LuckyStrike- Glad to hear you are feeling positive. 4 good embies is a great result. I hope they all behave nicely for you and grow grow grow!
Kelly- I too unfortuantely get the whole work stress thing. I also have to just keep going so I can afford to keep on this TTC journey. I'm going to go back to yoga though as that was a great release and relaxation tool for me. I hope you can find some stress release too. There is just so much stress involved in all this. Am thinking of you.
Janet- How are you going my friend? I hope you are feeling ok and are feeling stronger every day. You are always in my thoughts.
Bride of Chucky- How are things at the moment?
Future Mum- Great to see you here in this thread too. I know there are some amazing ladies in the older women thread where you normally post. I hope we can be of some support to you as well. All the girls here are fabulous.
To anyone I missed out...sorry...need to go and get some dinner into my tummy.
AFM- am cruising along. Am very happy to have found out today where my FS has relocated to. And it's only 10 minutes from home. So next cycle will be with him. Day 5 now so still about 3 and a half weeks away. Will book in tomorrow to see him at his new clinic ASAP!!
LuckyStrike, great news that the EPU went well. that your four eggies all fertilise....
Possums, Hope that the TWW is not testing your patience too much...sending you lots of
KellyD, I have never used Syneral but know that it will be worth it in the end.
Hang in there October is only a blink away for your FET
Smithy, I see AF has finally started for you...go the pill popping
Kaydee, I hope that you got a fantastic fertilisation rate today.
wishingbaby, hope the trigger went well for you last night. your time is around the corner.
AFM, I just want to thank you all for your well wishes
EPU is in approx 12 hours time and am a little scared but know it's not too bad and over quite quickly.
I am however very excited to look down at my hand and see how many eggies we have and for a fantastic fertilisation

Smithy- Sorry I'm behind the times here. Didn't realise operation give DH a BFP for Christmas was in full gear now..GREAT NEWS!!! I'm pill popping too. Big hugs xxx
Luckystrike, your eggs all fertilise. Hope you're feeling ok today, not too sore.
Nicole, I hope your epu went well today. I'll pop back in later and check on you.
Kelly, hope work stress settles down. I think it plays a big part on our emoitonal well-being when you look at the emotions of ttc alone... work stress just adds to it all.
Possums, I find acupuncture really relaxing. The drive home in peak hour traffic un-did all my relaxtion yesterday but when I was there it was bliss! You're on the countdown to next week's bt...
Smithy, glad to see you're underway. Yay!
Bel, how awesome to find your fs so much closer to home - no excuses for being late now, can't blame getting stuck in traffic!
I was jumping each time the phone rang yesterday... a little anxious! 17 eggs out of the 22 had fertilised yesterday and I've been hoping like mad they keep growing! In for an ET today after lunch. I've been drinking so much water... I was worried the acupuncturist would put in her needles and little fountains of water would spurt out! I enjoy my water during the hotter months but don't drink this much when it's colder.
