Hi everyone,

Thank you all for your good luck messages

Hope you are all well. Sorry I,ve not been on but been very busy. Anyway just to let you all know I had my scan, and to my pleasant suprise I have 15 follies, not bad for just 1 ovary. I am going for EC on monday & ET on Wednesday. Getting a bit nervous now everything is happening so quick. DH is very happy & ET is the day after his mums birthday. I am really tired as we,ve been to the clinic everyday since the 9th May for bloods etc. but we have a day off 2morrow so we are just going to try 2 relax. Got my final injection at 10p.m. tonight to support the lining of the womb. The time has gone so quick it seems a bit surreal. How did your scan go Bro? Good luck Shellie for Monday & I wish everyone loadsa luck whatever stage you are at. :)

Hi everyone,

Hope you are all well & that your treatments are going to plan. I am feeling a bit nervous about 2morrow, (EC) hoping everything goes ok.I sometimes get the feeling that things have gone too well so far. This is a huge rollercoaster of emotions my head is all over the place. Oh here I go more whinging must have PMA. Anyway what a beautiful day so i am going on a picnic with friends as we live by the seaside so that should be relaxing. Good luck everyone,have a great day!

Christina, just butting in from catching up on the various threads.

Good luck with EC tomorrow. Seems to be a different experience for many depending on the different meds used. I was quite with-it and chatted and watched throughout. I had 9 follies so stared at the screen to distract myself. Plus the Bio-Engineer checked each one immediately so would stick her head round the door and tell us how the egg count was going. If you're not knocked out, try and enjoy the experience as all part of the miracle!

I hope you get a good night's sleep and are able to relax a bit.
Good luck tomorrow,
love
Debra.

Good Luck with your EC's which I think are both happening on Monday. You will both be fine if you get the same drugs I did, I couldnt remember a thing although apparantly I talked all the way through.
Thinking of you both.

Hi everyone,

Just want to thank you all for your good wishes, it really touched me & made me cry, so thank you all from the bottom of my heart. Anyway I had EC this morning & had the anaesthetic as i was extremely nervous. I had 12 mature eggs which I never expected as I only have 1 ovary. I slept for a few hours & now am home. Feeling a bit tender & very tired. We phone the clinic in the morning to see how many embies we have, then have ET on Wednesday. I am feeling very emotional at the minute & hope to get a good nights sleep tonite.

Shellie hope everything went as well for you & hope everyone else is getting on well with their treatments. Talk to you all soon


Lots of Hugs

Hi girls,

Thanks for your good wishes. I had EC this morning and they collected 5 eggs. I thought this was ok until I read christina had 12. I hope my 5 fertilise so I can get the best two.

I am still a bit sore so just wanted to keep you informed before heading back to bed.

Hope everyone else is getting on ok. Well done Bron on your good scan.
