Thanks Girls .. been very good and stayed in bed for most of yesterday.... gosh, it is difficult ...!

BigJ ... Glad the patches aren't doing the nappy rash thing. I know what you mean about the passiveness. I actually felt like that with this cycle. It was my first FET and, even though I did the supression jabs, I felt like I wasn't actually involved ... no tummy jabs, no daily hospital visits .. it kind of felt like it was all going on around me..

Kagome ... Have I missed your news ? How did your scan go yesterday ?

Eskavon . So, is EC tomorrow or Monday ? 5-7 follies is a nice number, but to be honest between last day and day of EC you could have more spurters. Anything can happen with these meds. Good luck Eskavon !!

Christine. Thanks ! Have your tablets brought on AF yet ?? Any news ??

Josie ... It's always a great feeling when you have a date to start tmt. Hope sniffing starts as planned on Monday.

Minnow ... You're on day 4 (?) of sniffing ... Hope it's going okay, and not too many side effects (yet !).

Little P ... My test is 20th. You've only 2 more sleeps now !!

JennaJay ..Thanks for your well wishes. Well done on your 15 follies. Having so many at almost the same size is excellent. I believe the optimum size is between 17-20mm. If they're over 20mm they're too ripe/mature and no good. So, hopefully yours will all progress at the same rate and you'll have a bumper crop by time of EC. Don't worry about the bloating - it's pretty normal ! Good luck !!

Heather ... Thank you Heather for all your recent posts. I really was wacking it and your support is really appreciated. Hope you are okay ?

Susie Susie ...! Well done you. 7 fertilised is wonderfull - and some in the freezer already. I'm thinking of you right now whilst your at ET. Look forward to your update later !

Sharon .. Thanks Sharon. I haven't caught up on your thread / 2ww thread yet .... I hope you are feeling okay and confident for a big happy smilley :D tomorrow. Only 1 more sleep. Well done !!

Jane .. Well that's a nice short protocol. I hope you respond better to it. It is great to finally get going ....Good luck !!

Sher ... You're really almost there now Sher. Hope your EC comes as planned for Tues / Wed next week.

Debra .. Last but certainly not least, my friend ... I haven't read any posts from you today (but I'm still catching up from yesterday ..). I hope you are well, and that the baking went to plan !! The party's today ?? I hope to see some news elsewhere ... Otherwise, I WILL come and find you !!

Hope everyone else is okay today ...

I hope that you are ok. How do you feel?

Remember to get loads and loads of rest and don't do anything at all.

Stay strong and full of PMA and we'll send the Baby Dust fairy your way :D

Thanks Little P ... I feel absolutely normal. I wish I some symptoms I could talk about !! I've just posted on the other thread about watching the embi yesterday being replaced. Last evening I felt like I had butterflies in my lower stomach, where the embi was put, but now I think I was imagining this. How strong is the mind !?

The last 2 fresh cycles, I've had sore boobs at start of 2ww. I wish at least I had those ! I feel a bit of a fake at the moment sat here in pyjamas !

You're all set now for Sat ? What time do you go in ? Is it simply in and out, or do you have a bed on a ward etc ..?

What a lovely note, you made me smile.
Its ec on Monday, they've called me back for another scan and blood tomorrow. So fingers crossed it'll all go ahead as planned.
Glad things are going well for you - must admit not looking forward to the 3 days in bed - like you I'm always on the go and its really alien to me to lie in bed. Sex and the city and mags are gonna get a lot of hammer!
Take lots of care of yourself.
Big 'hi' to our recent newcomers x

There's nothing fake about it - "little embie" is just settling in, then s/he will make him/herself felt :D

I go in at 10.00 am and they do the hysteroscopy anytime after 12.00. Luckily I have my own room so I don't think it matters when I leave, but it is all over within 30 minutes apparently so I don't think I will want to hang around too long :D

I will keep you posted, but don't expect I will get any information until early next week :?

Take care of yourself and remember get plenty of R&R.

Good luck with the scan and blood test tomorrow - let us know how you get on.

I shall keep my fingers crossed that nothing changes and you will still be on schedule for Monday.

I bet you can't wait now.

PMA, hugs and best wishes

Hi Girls,
as usual I have been off the boards for a while and I have missed so much!

Just wanted to appologise if I haven't been supportive yet, I am thinking of you all xx

I had an appointmnet yesterday to collect drugs etc. All the injections are in the fridge ready - wow it really is happening again!! Dh injected me last time but he won't be here for all of them this time - ahhhhhhh I have a very kind friend who said she would do them , might try and pluck up own courage ( last time I burst out crying as soon as I saw the needle but by the end was able to watch DH inject me).

So I start sniffs on Monday - did I see Josie is starting Monday also??

Must get ready for all those hot flushes and night sweats again!!

Good luck girls, need to catch up with where you are all at x

Hi all, Had my 2nd scan today. Have 32 follicles now, don't know where the other 4 went. Had a blood test too, hormone levels are 16,000, if that means anything to anyone. Going in for another scan and another blood test and if the levels are still "low" and the doctor is happy with the way my follicles looks then I will get the go ahead for EC. Thank you girls for all your encouraging words. :P Feeling a lot better today.

Lots of PMA with you girls today :P

Welcome back and good luck with the cycle. You are in good company.

Kagome

That's fantastic - now sit back and let it happen. Get plenty of R&R and prepare yourself.

Wishing you both loads of PMA, hugs and Baby Dust.
