springlola don't feel bad this is a really hard journey and at times we all feel what you are feeling now. It's hard to always be positive and at times we all think is this all worth and you need to let those emotions out otherwise you'll go crazy
Hope all those with EPU went well today - only have a moment as DH is working from home.
Had my 3rd scan today and the eggs still are not big enough, continue on the increased dose of puregon from 200-300 till Friday and re-scan possible EPU Monday. I thought an atagonist cycle was supposed to be smoother? Why can't I just have a straight forward cycle? too many eggs, crap quality eggs, now not big enough eggs, I was feelilng better about this cycle but now I am not. Left the FS and made it to the elevator before I burst into tears with frustration. I just want a baby - why is this so damn hard? why am I such a "difficult patient" I do everything I am told. I am just dreading this is going to be another failed cycle. I am feeling pretty low so will sign off - sorry for the vent.
Wishing everyone else well for the stage they are at.
Trishy- good one, 10 eggs is awesome! Congratulations!
Nicoleh- god, thats so disappointing, I hope so much they grow in the next few days, take it easy and rest up to give them the best chance. I can understand your frustration
Frugal- hope you are having a better day you poor thing- AF is a nuaghty little thing, she refuses to show her face when we really need her. Sounds like you have a bit of PMT ( I always feel like I can't do anything right when I have it) so hopefully she is coming very soon x
Springlola- hope you are feeling a bit better today
Kristine- wow bad timing, you can do it though, hope the exam and the scan go really well!
terry-sorry your transfer was cancelled, that must be difficult x
Hi to Ehm, Kass, nightwalker, fatgirlslim, loops, Kaybee, oneday
(((GBH))) to Nicoleh and SpringLola, I know sometimes this process is very tough, feeling for you. Goodluck with the next steps, stay strong
Trishy ~ Well done on the 10 that is excellent! GL for fertilisation and transfer, FX!
This is just a quick one sorry as I need to go and rest. Im super happy and excited, best EPU Ive had. We got 15 eggs :-) Waiting for call tomorrow re: fertilisation!
Sorry if this is hard for some of you to read I guess my past cycles havent been the smoothest either so its nice this time to get a good result. Thanks for all your lovely support xoxox
Good luck ladies, hoping for lots of BFP's in here very soon
Wow... such a mixed bag of emotions in here at the moment...
Congrats to Loops and Trishy - both with FANTASTIC numbers - fingers crossed we have some GREAT fertilisation rates too!
Nicoleh & Springlola - HUGE HUGS.
Nicoleh - I had a rough cycle last time and I was stimming for 4 or so weeks. I was a complete wreck emotionally... if they're still too small - that still means they're growing - mine literally sprung up overnight and I literally went from "maybe one or 2 eggs at most..." to 8 eggletts.
HELLO to everyone else... I absolutely cannot keep up in here at the moment!!!
AFM - Triggered about 30 mins ago for an 8:50am pickup on Friday morning. Had to go in for bloods this morning - to check my e levels... I have REALLY bad veins, and she tried both arms and ended up DIGGING in one arm whilst getting me to pump my fist so she could get a trickle of blood to test. NOT FUN. have a HUGE bruise on the inside of my arm - she wrapped it tight in bandages - so she knew it was gonna happen!!!
Oh God... I am trying so hard to not get too caught up in the hope/emotion/excitement of this cycle... but I couldnt help but check my estimated due data based on Friday's fertilisation... July 7th. Oh God. I hope it happens.

fatslimgirl - great to hear you are getting your EPU Friday, obviously your increase in meds helped. Are you sure we are not related cos if I do not go and get my blood taken at one collection centre I have the same problem as you (hard to believe only one centre in Bris can get blood from me easily) last time I went to the one where my FS is and I was there ages as she had sseveral goes and dug into my arms etc.. and she could not get a drop.
loops & trishy so glad to hear your epu went well, was wondering about you both today. Great numbers and I hope fertilastion goes well for you both
springlola I know what you mean about not being cut out for this, I am feeling the same
guess I have no other choice than to wait for Fridays scan and keep my fingers crossed
