Had all my blood tests yesterday and the NKC ones will be back on thur as they have to be sent to chicargo. My hgc levels have gone from 90 to 267in two days so they are pleased. To go for another blood test on wed morning.

Diona best of luck for wed i am sure it will all go welland you will get lots of eggs from your follicules.

racquel i am so glad that everything went ok with your scan and that you still have two little heatbeats . Just keep resting and looking after yourself.

Hope everyone else is ok

Well, I survived the EC and all went well. I actually feel fine and am very surprised by it.
They got 12 eggs which was more than we expected. They said that the sperm looked good too...no dead ones. A total surprise!
Will check in tomorrow when the report comes in.

The news is in...out of 12, they were able to ICSI 8 and 6 of them fertilized. I was hoping for 8 (I have no idea why), but am happy to have 6. I feel so blessed.
6 is a good number, right? I'm only putting back 2 and want to freeze the rest so I really have all I need.
Transfer Saturday or Monday. Gotta stop drinking coffee tomorrow (I have said that everyday).
As for the PIO shot...I tried, oh how I tried to give it to myself this morning. For 40 minutes I iced, re-iced, counted to 3, then to 10, and no matter what, couldn't bring myself to do it. Called DH and told him to come home to do it for me. He did so good and it didn't even hurt. I had planned to do the PIO myself like the others but change of plans. DH will have to wake me at 5:30am before he leaves for work to give it to me. There is no way I can do that loooong needle myself. Hats off to those of you who do!
Thinking of you all,

Hi all

Dione- Your numbers are fab good Luck with ET I think we will test similar time.

Rileydee - great news good luck with scan.

nicola - big hugs to you its such an emotional journey.

Racquel - congrats twins take it easy look after yourself.

Rachel good louck with follie scan tomorrow.

Well had my EC Tue and ET today. I have two good 5 cell embies back so now the dreaded 2ww I test the 22.8 which is the day my AF would be due. Did not get enough to freeze unfortunately, which is a little disappointing as we have limited frozen sperm not to mention funds, anyway fingers crossed.

Hello All,

Hope everyone is doing ok.

Susan and Riley they are great numbers. Are you suffering with any horrible symptoms or are you lucky enough to have got away with them?

Well done Dione, 6 is great. Best of luck for ET. I found the full bladder a killer but other than that it was a breeze!

Rachel I hope the migraine stays away, dh suffers with them and they're awful! Hope the follicle scan goes well.

Nicola you are doing so well. I just can't imagine how you are feeling so am not even going to try. If I can help with anything at all just shout.

Hope everyone else is doing ok. Sorry if I've missed you.

We had another scan yesterday. It is so reassuring to see the little heartbeat beating away like there's no tomorrow! Baby is the size it should be, nice and happy and everything looks great. We have now been discharged from the clinic. I have an appointment with the midwife next week.

My boobs aren't hurting as much now. Still hurt a little but have eased. I'm starting to feel sick every morning but don't know if that's because of my sugar levels - I have to keep them really low during pregnancy and my body's not used to it!

The gestone shots are really hurting still. The sites are numb now and really bruised. The doctor said we can stop them at 11 weeks so only 2 weeks left!

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Jo
