JLeigh29 - of course I don't mind you asking. We are all here to help everyone! I didn't really get the option. My periods are very regular, every 28 days and I ovulate around day 14, so since I had no problem there, I guess my FS decided that I could just do a short antagonist cycle. I am not sure if the Gonal F injections are the same as the Syranal? I don't think so. My cycle was so quick and easy, I could not believe it. I was never moody or down and I didn't get any side effects other than feeling bloated. I believe the Gonal injections were to produce the eggs, and then I had the Orgalatrun injections to prevent the eggs releasing prematurely. Then I had the trigger injection and 36 hours later had the egg collection. Any other questions, just ask!
Toby - when are you due for your blood test? for a positive for you!
Have a great Sunday, its so windy out there, so I think I will stay inside where its warm!!
I too am also just starting my first IVF ICSI cycle. DH and I are currently going through Dr Lok at SIVF. They have been fantastic so far.
Anyway, started on 10units of Lucrin injections last Thursday. Was quite surprised with myself that I was able to do them. Was a bit worried to begin with. So moving on, took my last pill on Sat night and now just waiting for my monthly friends to arrive. Have a BT all set for this Thursday and have been told by the IVF nurse that all going well, will start my FSH injections on Saturday .
Just a bit more about us, as well as the ICSI and the IVF were also doing PGD. My husband has a genetic condition and so we were able to be provided with the option to make him the only one in the family with it. We started our whole IVF adventure just a little over 12mths ago now and now its time for all the great exciting things.
Hope we can all support each other on here. Will definately need it. Am kind of stressing a little too because I know im taking the injections but aren't really feeling anything other than a slight sore head. Is this normal I wonder??
Look forward to hearing about all of your experiences and tips
Thanks for all the goodluck vibes.
Amy my FS is Dr Talbot and BT is Friday. I'm going to be a nervous wreck then (not if AF shows up first)
How are you all going?
Welcome "Motherhood here I come"! Wishing you all the best. I expected the injections to be hard too, but after the first one was over, it was easy!
Toby, I am that your AF doesn't turn up and that you get that BFP!! Do you think you will do a HPT before Friday or just wait until BT?
I found out today, that of the 10 remaining embies, they were only able to freeze one. The others didn't make it unfortunately. Oh, well I am staying positive that the embie inside me has implanted and will be a BFP next Wed! Its still such a long time away!
A really good friend just called to tell me she is 13 weeks pregnant, I am so happy for her as she has been trying for a few years, but it is still so difficult to hear!
Hope everyone is having a great night! I think I might head off to bed early!
