IVF/ICSI/FET 2011 everyone welcome

Hi all

Mrs Sunshine, sorry to hear that you have had more bleeding and are feeling upset. It is a good sign that the clinic aren't too concerned though - try and focus on that. They must see this type of thing lots and so I am sure they know what's what. Easy for me to say though, I can imagine how upsetting it must be for you, so have got my fingers crossed that all works out ok.

Raf-wife glad that you are finally getting started - sounds like you will have a decent number of follicles too! I didn't really think about cleaning the skin before injecting (just warmed it up with my hand a bit and then pinched some fat) until I started doing my cetrotide ones on about day 4, which came with an alcohol swab so I used that. Otherwise though I would just use hot water on a bit of cotton wool, if anything.

Nayla don't worry about embryo transfer - it is fine, just like a smear really. My one was a bit uncomfortable as my cervix is a bit squint (apparently!) but even then it was still just uncomfortable, not painful. Try not to worry too far ahead, just deal with one hurdle at a time.

Wallie glad that you are getting started, Jo you will be next!

Afm nothing to report, was quite weepy yesterday which concerns me as I often get like that before AF arrives. Had a few cramps this morning but could well be AF on its way : ( Seems too late for implantation I think, 10 days post ov. Anyway trying not to obsess too much, will see what the week brings.

Mrssunshine--I'm sure that all is well and its just some early pregnancy spotting :hug:

Raf-wife--they sent alcohol swabs with my meds for me to clean my skin with and the tops of the bottles before taking the medication from them...its weird they wouldn't say anything about doing that...yay for starting tomorrow :happy dance:

Wallie--Im glad u started :) I got that bloated feeling pretty early on too

Nayla--The embryo transfer was nothing bad at all...It was probably the easiest part :) There was 2 people and my hubby in the room when they did it. I think the most uncomfortable part was the very full bladder! But it was amazing when it was over knowing that your little one(s) were there and you were pupo :)

Polly--Stay positive! When r u testing?

I hope everyone else is doing well and moving along with everything. :hugs:

AFM: I have been sooo tired. I feel bad for hubby. I get home from work, sleep a few hours, eat dinner and go back to bed about 2 hrs later....All I do lately is sleep. Not too much for MS except when i first wake up and I think that is because of being dehydrated or not having eaten for awhile. I'm having an issue eating enough because nothing sounds appetizing at all!

Hi there- I've heard other girls saying the same things, I think it's just your ovaries enlarging with all the follies. And the EWCM is just because of the estrogen rise I think! Welcome to the thread!

I had tinned of the stuff, my clinic said it was normal it's just cos of the rise in oestrogen when stimming
Good luck
 
Hope all u lovely ladies r ok, thanks for the messages over last couple of days, am eventually feeling bit better, bleeding is slowing and I've had my beta done today too it's 426 so I think that's ok for 4 wks 4 days esp if it's just one. Have another one done on Thursday

Polly good luck for your testing, I still have zero symptoms so I wouldnt worry about that. When is your test date?

Everyone seems to be getting well on the way with everything, hope there's many more bfp's to come xx
 
That's great news mrssunshine, hopefully you can relax a bit more now!!!
 
Hey everyone. Glad everyone is doing well! I have been quiet as I had a bad dream I was spotting....ugh. Today is whne AF would be due and so having cramps isnt helping the bad dream thing though I have had them off and on since 2 days post transfer and it is normal. What is strange is my BB's stopped feeling sore overnight. With my pother pregnancies, if I remember correctly, my boobs did not feel sore and esp the last one, but it isnt making me feel better. Off to get more FRER's. I stopped after the 3rd BFP on Sunday. So will be taking them daily until my beta Friday~sigh
