Trishy - FX you can get a baby sitter. Do you have family or friends close by? I can't help you with your trigger question. I haven't gotten that far as yet.
Hey Trishy I was crampy after my trigger too - like within a couple of minutes, right up until now. Had my egg collection yesterday so I am still bloated and sore - seems like this is gonna be how it is for a while!
Good luck for your egg collection, really hope it goes well. What a stress having to think about babysitting on top of everything else - my clinic doesn't let anyone bring children even to their tests/scans etc and I often wonder how people manage who have kids! Hope you've been able to call in some favours and it's all sorted now.
my egg collection went well - much better than I expected, my laparoscopy last year was much more traumatic with the general and bad pain afterwards. I am fine now, they said 4 excellent looking eggs so they stopped collecting (we only wanted to use 4) but it did hurt a bit at first until the pethadeine kicked in! It was an issue that so many of hte follies were smaller due to be being only on mild stim, so thankful they had enough of the big ones.
After the first bit of pain I don't remember anything including the whole part where they showed us things on the screen - just as well DH was there but he was so surprised that I have amnesia for like the whole thing. I thought it was only a few mins in there and it was actually like 45min! Apparently I was so sedated I wasn't breathing much so the nurse was trying to wake me up by talking to me and I remember I started going on (half teasing DH) about how DH is really squeamish about medical things and was he looking okay, how he can't even watch House on telly and might need to leave at some point. Then the nurse started getting worried and saying oh maybe he should leave! I was like 'oh no does he look green then? is he ok?' (stressed now) and nurse didn't say he looked okay and started telling a story about a husband who fainted and broke his nose... by now I was really worried! DH said afterwards he was mortified and didn't know how to explain to them that he was quite okay and that I was being a bit squiffy on the drugs.
Ringing for my results at 3pm today... so nervous!!! If there's only one fertilised they planning to do a day 2 transfer (tomorrow) or if more, day 5. I was reading more about how 50% of embryos that look okay at day 2 still have genetic problems, so if you do day 2 transfer it's much more likely to fail. As you can see I am prone to overthink, wish DH was here for this!

(my very first cycle of IVF, me 34 DH 27, unexplained)
hey all i hope you are all doing ok. i have a question.does anyone know if a nk cell blood test can be organized by gp or is it only through FS. havent got another FS planned for a while yet but when i got results of my lap gynae said it is possible with my long cycles that i would probably have nk cells but that they couldnt do a biopsy for it publicly so i thought maybe if a got blood test done first and then went from there depending on results we might know more before startng ivf. and my cycle is still even more screwed up for about a year my cycle has usually been about 8 weeks,last cycle was 6 weeks.now this one i had spotting for a couple days around cd29 now four weeks later when af should be rearing her ugley head i have heavier spotting than last time but not heavy enough for af.hpt are neg.got a gp appointment on monday to try and figure it out
trubabe sorry cant help you with that one, this bing my 1st cycle and all.
Saraz I over think too, so you are experiecing cramping too. DP is on holidays this week, starts a new job next week so we went out for lunch and I was cramping so bad i was convinced the trigger worked too soon or something. I am so excited for you that you gote the 4 good size eggs you wanted. Sounds like the nurse you had was good and treated you well, after I read your other post about your experiences I am glad you got someone like her.
We sorted out babysitter kind of, but means DP cant stay with me after he has given sample, he need to rush home and get daughter and drive back and get me, pain in the butt.
My fs is doing a 5 day transfer, so my transfer is on Wed.
Hope you got excellent results.
Porsche inlaws live close, but they are the ones who cancelled on me. But FIL spat it at his wife so they will watch C but DP has to be back home by 9:15 to get C and drive back and get me, pain in the arse.
gday girls just a quick one bt results came back today all super hormones have flatlined which is perfect so just had injection no.1 at least this rund I know what to expect this time though instead of puregon 300iu i am on 900iu @50iu per night i have another bt on monday then u/s on friday and then should be insemination on the 12th it's come round so quick woohoo hope the tww goes just as quick hugs everyone gl and hope to see more bfp's in here
Hi everyone
My transfer is tomorrow - I'm excited, but trying not to be if that makes sense? I'm feeling good about it, but don't want a big let down later... I wish these things came with guarantees!
Saraz your collection story made me smile - I don't remember anything of mine, but before I went in for my first, one of the nurses was telling me how some people kept talking throughout - that worried me more than anything else that day I'm sure if I was talking it would be pretty random!
Glad it went well for you - hope they are all progressing nicely!
Trishy - hope everything goes smoothly for you - and I hope your inlaws have a good excuse!
Trueblue - it's a good feeling when things are happening - isn't it funny to be happy to be having shots!
I thought when you went in for the egg collection you were knocked out completely? So they only give you a sedative? I'm freaking out a bit now. I guess they probably hear all sorts of things from their patients tho. It probably gives them entertainment for the day! Good luck to all of you. I have another month of being on the pill before i start my cycle.
