Spoke with the clinic - apparently I should be right to go for a Friday ER/EPU - exciting. However, I do have to go for one last BT on Wednesday - I am guessing to ceck my E levels? Not sure... but should be smooth sailing FX!!
Saffy - isn't it messed up, the things we look forward to when we're IVF-ing? AF, jabs, sore BBs, cramping! ha!
Hi everyone and thanks for the warm welcome and advice. Its so lovely to feel supported and hear from people who are going through the same experience.
I had my ET today, one good blasty on board and one in the freezer... I'm stoked they both pulled through. Thanks for all the well wishes and crossed fingers! Ready for the next hurdle....
Oneday - I was sedated for my EC and had no dramas. I was still coherent and aware, just didn't feel anything. The canula was the worst part.. but i hate needles. My recovery was fine and i was out to lunch a few hours later.
Frugal - I tolerated the injections and they definitely weren't that bad. My DH did all of mine except my first luteal pregnal shot which I had to do (I'm needlephobic). In my nervousness.. I ended up shattering the glass ample lid and had remove all the shards of glass from my thumb. The good news was the needle didn't hurt and I even did my injection today. Hope your having fun in the sun!
Fatgirlslim - Congrats on your follies!
Loops - I appreciate you sharing your experience. My embryologist(who is a close friend) told me she was relieved that i could produce good quality blastocysts despite my low egg haul. So I'll have to talk to FS to see what she thinks. I know every cycle you have can be completely different to they might keep me on the same protocol for next time...hopefully it's only the FET. Good luck for your EPU...fx
Trishy - Thanks for the advice, I will talk to my FS again and see want she thinks. I was keen on trying acupuncture.. I will now that I'm more comfortable with needles. Good luck for your EPU!
Kristine - I know my AMH isn't too bad, i suppose that's why I expected a couple more eggs... but quality over quantity and it only takes one...as my FS and nurses say. Its hard when you have to deal with the pregnancies of others. While excited for them it reminds you of your own struggle. I have babies coming out the wazoo (just not mine..)..All of my friends bar a few are either pregnant or trying for their second (with ease). My SIL has four young kids, fell pregnant again and got rid of it. Made my blood boil.
Saffy - you'll have to keep me posted on your antag cycle
fatgirlslim hope you stopped playing telephone tag with FS. Goodluck for Frid if it is all systems go. Ok got to the end and saw you have. Hope your blood test comes back with the results you want.
saffy hope the week goes fast and you move on to the business end. The pill does that too me, its shocking.
Loops my EPU is at East Melb. I have to be there by 9 am. Goodluck will be thinking of you.
AFM EPU is at 1020 need to be at hospital by 9 am. Have to make my transfer appointment tomorrow I was the last one called today so they rang me at 5. To late to make transfer appointment. Mum is still in hospital, looks like she will be off to rehab in next day or two. I should know more tomorrow.
Trishy and loops - hope your pickups go well on Wed, Trishy - hope your mum is feeling better soon
Night walker - fx for a sticky one! I'm surprised your SIL would share that with you - how insensitive
Fatgirlslim - glad your numbers are up - it's sounding good
Nicoleh - hope the increased dose does the trick fx
ehm - wow that's a lot - hope you're not getting too swollen! Hope you gets lots of nice ones for your bday!
Thanks Saffy - glad you're onto the jabs soon!
Kristine - glad I'm not the only one - there's next to no chance for me either, but I'm always hoping Good luck with your injections - the first one's the hardest but they're not that bad - I actually prefer them to the synarel. Sorry about your SIL - it's really hard when it seems everyone but you is pregnant. I was at a bbq on the weekend with some friends I hadn't seen for a while - 4 of the 6 girls were pg - I only knew about one beforehand - they all sat there complaining about it! Not fun - I got through the afternoon and cried on the way home
I've reacted badly to my trigger, it didnt happen last time I have a rash and nausea. Plus because it was warm last night I was hot which made me itch more.
There is so much going on here, here I am just sniffing away LOL
Kristine I'm getting better at the whole Royal Jelly thing, I have lnog nose plyers and take the lid right off, put it into a shot glass and throw it back (all that training came in handy ) trying so hard not to taste it...
I felt exactly the same with my SIL, she rang a couple of times and I didnt take her call, then last week she MC twins and I feel really guilty. Its a horrible feeling, glad their happy but wish that we were...
Saffy I can't believe that the Royal Jelly doesnt bother you, I'm sniffing away. Rang accounts only have to pay $190 this month which is great, hopefully I get to use the money this month, dont know how I'd cope if I was cancelled again this month..NO SNIFFING !!! Lucky you
Loops I think that was the problem I used the straw, I could taste it until I ent to bed that night. We are a bit lucky in regards to DH'd trade, but still a bit dunted by the whole move thing....
Retail therapy YAY!!! love it..Not long now
Oneday I've prob missed you..but enjoy Fiji
Trishy I hope your Mum's getting better, sounds like a long haul for you and your family.. Someone else on here had a reaction to the trigger, but EPU went without a hitch..wish I could remember who let us know how you go
Ehm I will be on the same amount of Puregon this month, I'm nervous that I'm going to go the other way and over stimulate, glad its going well for you
Nicoleh Try not to stress, that a nice number of follies..
Fatgirlslim They tell me fresh is best, the capsules are dead jelly..the ear wax/ cough medicine is the best stuff....oh ofcourse it is because it couldnt taste like honey and be good for you could it
Good numbers of follies...
AFM just quietly sniffing away, have lots of distractions atm with mares foaling.
GOOD LUCK EVERYBODY WITH EPU AND TRANSFERS THIS WEEK
With so many of you in the EPU and tranfer stage I think this thread must be due a couple of BFP announcements
