Morning ladies

Well I had a stressful night last night. I had another scan yesterday which showed the follicles had grown nicely over the weekend. My FS nurse rang in the afternoon to say my lining wasn't thick enough and they were thinking of doing the egg collection and freezing the embryos until my lining was the right thickness. I spent the night worrying if it's better to go with fresh embryos with a thinner lining or frozen with a thicker lining. I had to go back for another scan this morning and I was prepared to argue my case that I still want a fresh transfer.
Anyway turns out my lining has thickened up over night is easily the 6mm recommended size so all this worrying over nothing. I'd drunk two cups of Raspberry leaf tea last night because I read it had helped. It was too late for chinese herbs and acupuncture.
So looks like egg collection is Thursday which makes this the fastest cycle I've ever done. My FS increased the Puregon from 200 to 300 so maybe this has made a difference but of course it doesn't guarrantee many mature eggs.
With my last Antagonist cycle I remember having a lot more follicles but less eggs than the first down reg cycle.

Tantee Good to hear from you, sorry you have a sore hand and hope it heals quickly.

Melissa What is the difference with the Flare cycle? Is it what we call an Antagonist with 2 types of injections? I hope you get some answers from the specialist. My FS has also put my on low dose of aspirin if I get pg.

N2L Hope you had a great b'day. I turn 40 in 18 months and I wonder if I will ever be a mum before then. It's my cutoff date as we will have been ttc for 5 years. Can't belive how fast it's coming around.

Teirae Yes that's very depressing being surrounded by new borns at the clinic. We just had to resign the big consent form for ivf treatment as our clinic likes them to be updated every 2 years. There is a section we have to consent to the ongoing treatment and research into ivf patients and children.

Saffy Glad you're going well with the FET cycle and that you still have a uterus.

Loops Yay for ivf in Sept. FX you don't need it.

Hi Coral. Jayejaye and anyone else I've missed.
