Awww fun fair am so sorry.. I must not have read your siggy properly I have just read it again there! Little boy how lovely

 

[Minno]

Good evening ladies. Lots of nerve-wracking but exciting stuff on here tonight!
H, so thrilled for you with 6 fertilised they are going for 5 dt then? I think you have a good pool there so if there is some attrition you should still have one or two, or even more, really good embies. Can't wait til you're pupo!

V, I hear ya with the dodge tum - mine settling now thank goodness, hope yours does same. Scan on 23rd to check lining then if ok will got on progynova to build lining ready for transfer in jan assuming all goes to plan. Not fancying being on progynova that long but hey ho.

Funfair, hope you get some respite soon. I remember that stage well! Exhausting!

Chi mama welcome. I haven't stimmed before as am doing donor egg ivf but I will keep everything crossed for you for good news tomoro. It is a pain that the clinic shuts for such a long time over Xmas/new year!

And finally, PCCT, how are you my love? Been thinking of you. How was the birth? Congrats on your lovely little man - aw. You are living proof that this treatment works! Xxx

 

[pcct]

Hi minno thank you so much! am doing great thanks, been silently stalking the thread and keeping up to date with everyone's process , it really does bring back so many memory's!
The birth was amazing, was everything I wished it would be but more... If you like you can read my birth story on my journal I shall add the link here for you and to anyone else that wishes to read you're more than welcome to.. I just don't want to post it in here in respect to all you ladies who are in the process of your ivf cycles

I rang ninewells couple of weeks ago to let them no kaden had been born, and they were asking his name weight ect, I got so emotional I just burst Into tears haha was very overwhelming the first few weeks... After the long journal to actually having my baby with me was crazy! A good kind of crazy! Anyway I struggled to tell her that we had a boy and I couldn't get his name out between crying and giggling LOL I sent a thank you card with couple of pictures of kaden in side to the nurse staff.. I hope they got it ok

Am so excited for u minno you are sniffing already!! I won't forget the yucky nasal spray taste in the back of throat as u were saying!

Praying for all u ladies that u will all be blessed with your little miricales soon

Birth story to who ever would like to read

Hi girls, just a quick update, i am just home. Ivf has been abandoned. However, the one lead follie i had has now got to 20 and i have about 16 12 and under which havent really changed, if anything they have got a tad smaller. Two doctors came in after my scan as we were prepared to hear it was cancelled, but alison ( quiet one) said hang on and in she came with them to ask if we want to convert to iui since we have the one lead, its either that or nothing until we can do ivf again, so we said yes! We have the trigger shot here to do tonight and then back in friday morning for the procedure. Its not what i wanted to hear but it is better than nothing so going to give it everything we have!

Any tips or hints before friday to help it work or make me relax even would be greatly appreciated, thanks for reading this xx

Lots of love to you all x

 

[pcct]

Sorry to hear this chi but good to hear it went from 18 to 20 and been giving the chance to try the iui I have everything crossed for u! Am not exactly sure how iui works x

 

[V2R]

chi mama - I am on 150 suprecur for 24 days!!
You still have a very good chance with IUI maybe even a better chance keep positive it's not over yet & it's really good that they have decided to try IUI & not totally abandon you. Get plenty of rest over the weekend put your feet up.

Sorry just a quick reply as I'm away to finish work, I'll read previous posts tomorrow xx

 

[pcct]

V2r - Ahh I remember being on that to for like 4-5 weeks thought it would have stopped when I started to stim was so yucky lol

 

[Chi mama]

Thank you! My last sniff of the nasal spray will be 8pm tonight, thank goodness! I have been on that sucker for like six weeks! I had to start sniffing on day 2 due to irregular cycles

Havent done any research or read anything about iui but as you say its better than being abandoned until next ivf! I am 34 dh is 35 fit and healthy never smoked so im hoping we odds are with us and not against! Might work might not but think the stats were similar to ivf, maybe just slightly less?

I am gonna google google google see what info i find, thank you for replying girls thats very nice, and hope ur all well xxx

 

[pcct]

I started day 2 of mine too to be in sink with the recipient , bet u r so glad to be having your last tonight

Your exactly right way better than it completly being abanded!

 

[Chi mama]

That must have been hard trying to tie in with someone elses cycle, let alone your own so thats a huge achievement in itself!

Will let you know how it goes, to be honest im more excited than anything, the needle for the trigger is way smaller than the syringe that i had to use for the menopur, i am a total needle phobe x

 

[H4M]

Chi mama that's great about IUI at least it's not a total let down! I have fingers crossed for you, have a lovely relaxing bath tomorrow night and rest up, then just relax over weekend 😊 x

Pcct congratulations on your wee man, bet you are ao chuffed!! Hope it's all going ok and I might have a look at your diary later to see how you got on 👍 xx

So much to catch up on!!
I'm just trying to give myself positive vibes.... Keep telling myself I will be pregnant!! I really just don't want to get my hopes up 😢 xx

 

[pcct]

Woo hoo for a small needle! I have a fear of them too , I thought I was guna pass out with complete panic when I done my first Injection am excited for you to!!

 

[pcct]
