IVF/ICSI in Aug/Sept/Oct Updates on 1st page!

[Kelly9]

Will try to rest lots. I don't have much on the go anyway no more shifts at work till after collection.

 

[Maddie30]

AQ I'm so so sorry you are both going through this. Can't even imagine how you must be feeling now. You are in my thoughts & I hope you can sort this out & its not the end xxxx

 

[schoolteacher]

AQ- so sorry to hear your news, thinking of you. All this fertility stuff does put a strain pn the strongest people! Xxx

Hope- lovely to here your little wrigglers are doing well! Fantastic you must be so pleased! X

Sorry you were a bit disappointed Tiff! I hope some more pop up! I have pcos so always get loads of follies but only about half that amount of eggs! At day6/7 I had 14 follies on each side, and today they counted 14 on one side and19 in the other so that's 5 more popped up! That's 33 altogether but I reckon i will only get about half that again so would be super pleased with 20 perhaps!! X

ER will be on Friday, they debated stringing me out til Monday but then that would be too long! So decided to stick with Friday! Lots of the follies are still too small at the mo so I hope they catch up! I have last shot of gonal f tonight so hopefully that will help! Trigger tomorrow and interestingly for the first time they are giving me ovitrelle instead of suprecur! They made me have it in first 2 cycles due to pcos and apparently your less likely to get ohss on it. They giving me ovitrelle as apparently as well as being the trigger it gives your eggs another big push! Xx

Hi maddie, babies, princess, rosa, kazza, tinks, trask and all the lovely gang! X

Thats reassuring, I'd be happy if 5 more follies popped up and made it to be mature on time. If you think about it out of my 20 I ended up with 10 by the end of it all so I'm scared I'll get 10 and only have 5. or less. Just shot myself up with 300 units so I should be feeling my ovaries percolating soon. I also take 75 units of luveris they haven't changed that dose. I only stemmed 10 days last time so I think they're still trying to get me done in 10 but honestly I don't mind the 2 extra days if it means getting a few more eggs. I HATE WAITING! Ugh.

Yay for collection friday!

 

[princess_1991]

If I remember rightly we had 14 follicles, 16 eggs, shared half with our lady, so we had 8 eggs, 5 fertilised, 4 made it to blast, 2 transferred and 1 implanted

St yay for collection Friday

Tiff fingers crossed everything works out ok, like hope said quality not quantity

everyone!!

 

[schoolteacher]

It's good your having the higher dose now, I never gone higher than 225, but usually have 150. Hmmm, maybe try and hint to them that you really wouldn't mind stimming a few more days if it might mean more eggs! I have always stimmed for 14 or more days! X

 

[schoolteacher]

Ahhh girls I'm so excited! My pal on the herts and Essex thread is in for her ER at the same time as me on Friday! So we gonna meet!!! How cool is that???? We have narrowly missed each other several times!! x x

 

[Kelly9]

Thats great news ST. I have a feeling they'll have me stimm a day or so longer if need be. My clinic is usually pretty good at stuff like that. 300 scared me when he said it! I've been feeling my ovaries twanging a lot since my dose today hopefully it means good things.

Hi ladies and thanks for all supportive messages,
Dh and i had a massive talk this morning(something we have rarely done) and we have said we still love eachother and want to make our marriage work and try and get our family so we are going to stick together and try and work through all this heartache. We are not out of the woods yet but we sure as hell plan to try our best and not let so much anger and resentment into our already difficult lives.
I hope time is kind to us and makes us as close as we once were and blesses us with our miracle child. Thank you all again so much. I am so happy today compared to yesterday and so is dh. I am off to slimming class tonight for first time in ages as want to concentrate on my mental and physical health now and pray we win our appeal xxx

 

[schoolteacher]

Yay AQ great news oh I'm so so glad! Infertility plus all the other stuff you have had to go through, well it's just so hard!
It changes a person, I know it upsets me when DH says things along the line of 'your not being the real you at the moment' and 'your so far away from me at the moment I don't know where you are'.
I wish u all the luck and courage in the world! X

 

[babies7777]

Aq, so happy for u that you're working things out, everything crossed for u!

 

[babies7777]

Re follies and eggs, we had six follies, 5 eggs, 4 injected, 3 fertilised, 2 put back in and the 3rd didnt make it.

 

[Traskey]

Hi everyone

Kelly, hope your follies have a growth spurt. I always had to stim for a bit longer than the minimal days to get mine up to size.

AQ, i'm glad that you and DH have managed to talk and are trying to work things through. You are going through the most stressful time imaginable and it's not surprising it's taken it out on your marriage. Sending you loads of

ST, good luck for Friday How lovely that your also going to see your friend from the forum. Loads of follie/egg growing dust for you.

I can't remember who asked about eggs and ICSI but on our second attempt it was 14 follicles. 12 eggs collected, 10 injected, 9 fertilised. Two blasts transferred and two implanted.

Hi to Princess, Tinks, Hope, Babies, Doodar, Maddie, Kazza and everyone else i've forgotten

 

[rosababy]

AQ, such good news! Have you considered seeing a couples therapist? Infertility is so hard on couples. Hopefully this will just make you a stronger couple in the end.

 

[~Hope~]

AQ that is wonderful news. Keep talking to each other

St yay for EC on Friday! I had ovitrelle as my trigger shot. Grow follies grow

Tiff sending some grow follies grow dust for you too

Now does anyone want a stinking cold? Going free to a good home? I'll even pay extra for a courier to get it to you real quick

 

[Maddie30]

AQ I'm so pleased you have managed to work things out with your husband. It hasn't been easy for either of you. Hopefully this will make you so much stronger the big waves in life do. Were here if ever you need to talk. Goodluck in getting things sorted & for your appeal. X

St Friday is nearly here, woooop xx

Hope send that cold to someone & hopefully it will get lost in the post, haha xxx

 

[Kelly9]

I don't want it I had one that last forever! I'm just happy it came and went before transfer!

Aq thats great news, best news I've heard in a while.

Scan tomorrow, time is dragging, my boys aren't home till late tomorrow and I'm going bonkers.

Ovaries are really making themselves known! Been feeling them for days now all tender and such. Really praying for some good news tomorrow.

On another note, one of my closer friends is having her bridal shower on the 7th and the one planning it is the friend that had a baby girl and named her Hannah just before my due date, I'm expecting her to bring the baby to the shower since she's likely nursing and it scares me. I dont want to end up breaking down when I see her but I don't think I can control my emotions and I really don't want to miss my friends bridal shower.

 

[africaqueen]

Thank you all for such fab support x

Hope- I hope you feel better soon. Its hayfever season and iv been full of it too x

ST- Oooh so excited for you for fri! hope u get lots of eggs an embies x

Tiff- It will be hard for you at the shower but you need to keep thinking that her baby is no different than any other and that although she has called the baby Hannah, that she is not your special Hannah and is nothing to do with her. Lots of little girls are called Hannah but only your Hannah will hold a special place in your heart forever and nothing else matters. Just think your there for your friend and that you have your gorgeous lil Skyler and you will be a mummy again soon. Big hugs x

Hi to Princess, Trask, Maddie, Babies and all the gang x

Results: So more follies this time! Relieved. I have 4 that are 1.2 and another 3 that are .8 then some smaller ones about 5-8 in total so still staying on 300 of gonal till Saturday at least then back in for a scan and hopefully they've caught up. Retrieval is still possibly Monday if all is good sat then I'll trigger then. In the last two days my follies grew roughly .4 and they usually trigger when they're around 1.8 so I expect I'll Stim a day longer ad maybe have collection Tuesday though hopefully they'll grow lots and I'll still be good for Monday.

Lining was .84 which is perfect.
