Hi All, egg collection done! I have 7 eggs, quite pleased with that actually as i was only expecting 5. I'm a bit sore and very sleepy but glad its over.

I should get a call before 2pm tomorrow to advise how many fertilised and how they are going. Now the waiting begins...

Hope your scan went well Crystal x x

yay
thats great!
did you feel anything during the ER? thats the part Im most nervous about.
you are not doing ICSI right?
this part is so exciting, hope they do really well. have you thought about how many you would put back in if they do well? my clinic will do 3 at my age, but Im only going with 2 the first time just incase they all take....if Im lucky enough to have 2 of course!

 

[Indigo77]

Really? I think I would do 3. I read that the likelihood of all 3 of them making it is less than 10% but twins does go up to about 30%.**DH and I are ok with twins.

Thanks everyone xx

i didn't feel anything as i was sedated however i do feel very sore now, they told me to take it very easy over the next few days.

We are having icsi due to morphology issues.

The NHS will only put 1 back if you are under 37, i am 37 in March so i am going to try and fight for 2 given my DOR i dont feel i have the time not too!!!

Glad to hear good news!

Hope you feel normal again soon.

Greenfingers- Yahhhhh!!!! that's fantastic I'm only allowed one back at my clinic as well, our fs said rarely do they put 2 back anymore I'm so glad it went well for you and you got more then expected so that's a bonus!!

We went to have the scan done and she couldn't see anything, my ovaries were to high so we had to wait until the ultrasound department could take us, the right ovary which did nothing last cycle had 2 but one follie is very small so not usable and my left ovary has 5 or 6 so that's what we were hoping for and the FS told us there could be one or two more on collection day that they didin't see. They ended up having to do an abdominal scan to find my ovaries...so I started the antagonist shots today and they'll call Sat and tell me what time to trigger and collection will be Monday

 

[Indigo77]

OMG! How exciting! It seems so fast!

 

[crystal443]

It does doesn't it??? I'm glad its going to be quick, this stuff is making me

 

[Indigo77]

Emotional? Or just psycho-bitchy?

 

[crystal443]

Honestly I think its from worrying about it,lol. I'm a bit irritable but not too bad and I did start to cry for no reason last night and thought what the hell am I doing?lol DH has been great though and I think that's why I haven't gotten really irritable or emotional..he picks up the slack so its been ok

 

[Indigo77]

It sounds like you snagged one of the good ones.

 

[LLbean]

way to go Crystal!!!!!

 

[crystal443]

Yeah Indigo I'm lucky He's always been great with the kids and would have a dozen if possible,lol. So how are things with you did you call your clinic?

LL- Thanks, I'm just on my way over to your journal..you made this look way too easy,lol

 

[LLbean]

I never lied. I swear it was not as bad as people paint it. You will see

 

[crystal443]

Lol LL...its not as bad as I thought it would be physically..but I worry way to much!! I think I might clean the house really good this week and keep busy

 

[GreenFingers]
