Great news Lou!! keep up the good work eggies! xx

 

[JJ Mum]

Greek Girl - Been thinking about you,as I always let my hubby know how the cycling ladies are doing.
Hope your doing ok today XX

Hi Lou - great news on your folicle scan - sounding lovely in there - very disapointed at your lack of measurements, you'd be telling us off properly if we came back with just a number! ha ha I'll let you off as your overseas... they may be less flexible..

Good luck for EC on sunday or monday - how exciting is that, seems like only yesterday I was cycling and you were desperate for the time to fly , so you could start your cycle..

Pennie - how did you get on too ? hope all went well for you.

Me - I am still happy that I got my first cb smiley face yesterday, on a thursday, so a weekday, meaning as long as this next cycle /period arrives on time, I would maybee have my surge cd13 again on a wed! def midweek!! I have my failed cycle review on the 11th next week and then I will have a better idea what were upto next month , god I hope I don't have to wait another month for some reason..

I actually didn't post them because I put them in my diary and didn't want to spam the same stuff everywhere

I was actually just thinking the same thing about not believing that we're a few days away from judgement day... Just trying to focus on EC for now

Congrats on your weekday surge! So, just a month away?!

Scotch -- just wanted to say that I hope the apt on 27th Sept gives you both some decent feedback as well as a comfortable plan and a positive focus xx


Pennie & Jenniemarie -- how are you both getting on? Are your scans going ok? x

 

[laurat]

Hey Girls, ive now been sniffing for the two weeks and a few days. Ive got my scan and blood appointment on Tues at 2pm. Ive kind of started to kind of freak out a bit I think. Im worried that its not going to work and the injections are not going to make me ovulate. Ive been really positive about it but today its like a wee kind of panic. Dont know if it realisation its here. Im thinking the down regging will have made my body worse as my pituatry gland hasnt worked for over a year and Im taking something to shut it down!! It may just sto it altogether!!

Oooh did any of you have a wee mini melt down???

 

[LouiseB]

Hiya

10 eggs for me today, they're going to phone me tomorrow between 12 and 1 with egg maturity and fertilisation results

JJ - good luck at your review appointment tomorrow

Laura - I'm sure I've had some mini meltdowns along the way, mainly when I can't feel something working. This cycle I've been worried about the Decapeptyl not working because I stopped taking it before I stopped stimming so I kept freaking out that maybe I'd ovulate before EC or something.

You just have to try and remind yourself that lots of people go through the exact same thing and they do fine

As for your pituitary... Well the body works in mysterious ways and I wouldn't be at all surprised if your pituitary started working perfectly after being switched off. I reckon there is just as much chance of that as there is it not working at all

Rea - how's things with you? Told anyone about bubs yet?

Pennie and Jennie, I'd love to hear how you are getting on xx

 

[Tinkerbell3]

Laura - I think what you're feeling is pretty normal, during my ICSI cycle I was worried at every stage that bit wouldn't work especially the stims stage. It's such a roller coaster of emotions going through fertility treatment.

Oh wow Louise, you had EC today, how are you feeling? Hope theres a good number of mature eggs from those 10 and you e a great fertilisation rate. Now the horrible 24 hour wait to find out x

 

[LouiseB]

Hiya Tinker

Yeah I know, i can't believe I'm upto this point already!

What've you been upto? Enjoyed the sunshine? xx
