Hi all, Anacris - the threat of the OHSS getting worse on pregnancy was what made me tell the clinic there was no way I could go through with it. I had the ER on Tuesday the 18th and was hospitalised on the Wednesday overnight. Came home OK but then Thursday night I started vomitting and was admitte...

Hi Ladies, Thought I'd poke my head in and say hello. I was in the May cycle group but due to a cycle that started out somewhat promising but has ended badly with 6 nights in hospital from OHSS - just escaped hospital today, I'm looking to do FET with the embies we managed to get from that round in ...

Hi All, Sorry, not to have kept up with everyone's news. It seems we've had both good and bad news among us all, so I'm sorry to those of you who've had BFN and congrats to those with good news. I've had a horrible, horrible week. Following my last post, the issue escalated quite badly. The nausea w...

Thanks Ghost. To be honest, the prospect of getting it again after ET terrifies me. I've never been this sick. My belly was very distended and tight - couldn't even bare to wear PJ's or underwear or even covers on the bed for a while. The ob/gyn in the hospital, who was not an IVF expert, told me th...

Hi Quick background - this is my first round of IVF. I have PCOS, was on synarel nasal spray and 150units of Puregon (FSH) with few symptoms other than slight ovarian pain. Some sickness when I did the hcg trigger but not too bad. Egg collection on Tuesday (14 eggs) left me in extreme pain and event...

Hi Ladies, Just another quick one, as I'm too sick and tired to write, though I have read everyone's posts. Just after I posted here yesterday I rang the ob/gyn that did the egg collection since the IVF clinic itself seemed completely unconcerned. He sent me straight into emergency. They did bloodwo...

Morning ladies, PMApsy - hugs hon. I'm sure there's still at least one there! Hope everyone else is well. I had a horrible night. Slept very little because of the pain despite constantly taking oxycodone and paracetamol. The pain is up much higher than my ovaries, more like my stomach. I can only as...

Hey ladies, just a quick one. ET went OK, well at least they got 14 eggs and DH's testicular biopsy was good. Got to say though, that it has been the single most painful experience of my life! The cramping has been insane, it hurts to breath deeply and I think if I were to eat anything, I'd be seein...

Rio - Hugs girl. Sounds like you had one tough day. It also sounds like your stepdaughter needs a kick up the bum! If I had to guess, I'd imagine she thinks that the focus of her father's affection has moved from her to your new baby. She probably figures that whilst playing the perfect sister in fr...

McFarland - Hugs babe, I hope you have success next time round. It must help tremendously to have such a supportive DH. PMApsy - Perhaps just drop the plan with the other woman? Sounds like she might think she's a big fish rather than seeing it as an opportunity to broaden her potential clients? Con...

Just a quick reply ladies - I'll do personals later! Had BW and US today and although I have to wait until this afternoon for doc's opinion and BW results, the US looked GOOOOOOOOOOD! 19 follies above 10mm - didn't count anything smaller. No wonder my ovaries are sore! They're just tired! So US tech...

Bei and Rio - I am near Melbourne (about an hour out) in Victoria. So kind of south but not as far south as Tasmania and not as north as Sydney, somewhere between the two, only better! :D Rio - The great barrier reef is magnificent isn't it? I don't dive, but we've been to the Whitsunday Islands and...

Rio - sexy huh? We went to the UK and France in 2005 and again in 2008 and even though I speak TERRIBLE french, I had more trouble being understood in England than in France because of the terrible accent! :D At least they understood me in Wales! In 2005 when we got on the plane to come home and the...

Bei - How frustrating! It'll be tomorrow before you know it! Well, for me, it is tomorrow already (I'm in Aus, so a day ahead of you) so do you want me to give him a call and find out for you? LOL - we can pretend I'm from the future! PMA - I here that ice cream calling you - "Oh, Sophie, oh sophie,...

Good luck Purple!
