Thank you everyone for your advice on the mood swings.
I called the clinic the next day. They said that the side effects should get better next week as, assuming my scan on Wed shows that my lining is thin enough, I will be started on tablets that will counteract the effects of the suprecur. I haven't been feeling quite as low the last few days, so will try and hang in there. My worry is when it is just me and DS, it was terrifying feeling like I couldn't look after him but there being nobody else around.
They also said I have the option of doing an un-medicated cycle next time if it doesn't work out this time, as I have regular cycles. I think I would opt for that (hopefully won't need to though!), these side effects are awful, I never had anything like this on the cetrotide cycles.
Froggy - what an amazing amount of eggs! I got 28 retrieved which is why they postponed transfer. It definitely took my body a few weeks to recover, how are you feeling? I also felt really uncomfortable leading up to retrieval, so full and swollen, it hurt to sit down! I can't remember how many fertilised, but we ended up with 10 good quality blasts to freeze, hope that you get a good number to store away.
Unlucky - I remember when trying for DS what a blow it would be every time someone announced they were pregnant, but it must be so much harder when it's someone so close. Does your sister know your situation?
Fern - I am with you on needing numbers, etc. I also like to have a plan of what is happening when e.g. scan this day, start tablets that day, transfer x weeks after that, even if it is likely to change. I hate everything being up in the air! 1 blast is all you need, that's what we ended up with when trying for DS, we had all our eggs in one basket, but it worked out!
