That's fantastic news!
And well done Hubby, had he been trying to improve his count?
Hope you feel a bit better soon
xxxx
and this was way before Et, so I'm not deluding myself!!
That's one heck of a jump from 27 to a million! Does that mean the VR is working for him? Looks like it, will it keep going up?
I guess we just think that its more common than what it is as no one has managed to get any yet. xxxxx
100% fertilisation is fab, well done. I have everything crossed now they are developing nicely. Well done to DH as well, that increase is impressive. My DH has been taking wellmans for about 5 months now so fx he will also see an improvement, we do have frozen though if needed.
There is a good chance it was them anyway. I hope it continues. When is your next session? Yes by 8.10 we would have been sat in spoons, just ordered breakie We have 6 follies bang on and about 6 just a little on the small side but should be able to catch up. The nurse said I should be good to have my trigger tonight and EC on Friday but my cons has to see my file first and authorise it. So just waiting for a call with the go ahead. Oh and one is still way to big, the little mite has gotten carried away lol. I am happy with that and feel very lucky that so far my treatment has gone well 
Retrieval on Friday morning. Lining and estridol numbers are excellent. Doc and nurses seemed pleased...still wish I had a few more. I'm thinking positive thoughts only and envisioning nice, big, mature, beautiful eggies. 
I have a question.......
Is anyone taking progesterone suppositries? I am, and sorry for thisBut Ive been farting like a beast! Like I literally have no control at all, they just rip out! I'm dying from the shame, hubby thinks it hilarious, but its not!
God, I can't believe I just asked this, the shame!
Also struggling with No2's terrible constipation! Nurse asked me this morning how my bowels are I had to tell her I only had a few rabbit ploppings! How embarrassing Oh I'm so sorry sweetieHope, good luck with your bloods today! Sure it's working ok by your symptoms
Kelly, have you stepped away from the ICs?

No frosties for usI was a bit upset but the embryologist said it's quite normal not to get any to freeze so don't worry. I guess it is what it is and i'll just keep hoping we won't need any.
I'm still sore but i'm making progress. Fell asleep doing my post transfer relaxation last night. Better than a sedative. One day I might make it to the end of one of those sessions
god and here's me moaning yesterday! puts me to shame!Morning all! Sorry I didn't post yesterday I did get on here eventually at about 10pm but I was so frazzled after reading 8 pages that I didn't have the energy to type anything so I went to bed!
EC went well, got 18 eggs in the end so selfishly a little disappointing as expected more but I guess some of the follies weren't big enough or empty. It would be ok if all 18 were mine but their not....so 9 for me which is good I know.
The brilliant news however was that DH's sperm has gone up!! from 27 to a million! so he didn't need ssr. We were both shocked and so was the clinic, I thought it would never come back from 27! the bonus is it's saved us £900 which we fully expected to pay out! So now we gonna book a short break with it
Felt very sore last night, and in pain especially when trying to move, shift postitions, get up, walk or wee!!!! like other ladies have said you can't stand up straight! During the night was uncomfy but bearable but feel a little better this morning. Its defo gonna be at least a couple more days before I feel anywhere near 'normal'!
at least I don't seem to have ohss sypmtoms other thatn being hugely bloated and I'm presuming the pain I feel is from the procedure.
Anways...the clinic jut rang! of the 9 eggs, 2 weren't mature. So 7 were injected and all 7 have fertilised! Pleased as that is 100% fertilisation!!! fetilisation with icsi is normally 70% apparently. The lady seemed hugely pleased with this so it is good. We could have lost more I suppose. It feels selfish but I wish we could have kept a few more.....
sorry no personals but I have read everyones posts!
all I can remember is......
Trask-congrats on your blasto and being pupo!
Zowiey and Doodar-sorry you were both feeling down yesterday regarding frosties! hope you are feeling the pma a bit more today!
Thank-you Hope and Tinks and anyone else who thought of me and wondered how I was.

I know what you mean though about being disappointed. I think once you get something in your head then you expect it to be that. Your amazing hunny. Do you get to find out how many fertilised for your donor too? They say an average cycle you get around 7 eggs and to expect 70% fertilisation so there you have managed to produce the average for you both, its brilliant Oh ST, I found that so embarassing! To think a stranger had been poking around my bum whilst I was out cold!
Well since I've started I may as well add another random bodily occurence!! Since starting ivf, my nipples have darkened!!!! I'm super pale anyway, so have very light nipples, which have no changed to a dark pink!
mine too! I put it down to the extra meds though coz it definately didnt happen last time I was given Voterol to take by mouth! Hee Hee!! even betterAhhh, we were given the Voltorol suppository to take on the morning of ec so that we could do it ourselves! I'm so glad now
st congrats on ec
cant remember anyone else who posted
had a missed call this morning and i think it was off the clinic but cuz they ring me off a blocked number
but they are the only one who ring me off blocked, im tempted to ring them and find out but ill feel like a tit if it wasnt them
if it was important im sure theyll ring me back

Yay!!ST - I can understand your dissapointment with 18 out of 30. I would be the same but 18 is a fab number. I bet your lady never thought she would get 9
Traskey - Sorry you have no frosties, I reall think its quick uncommon to get any TBH, most people dont seem to make it. Hope you aren't too upset
Zowie - Sorry about the wind, another embarassing aspect of assisted conception
Kelly - I hope your ovaries calm down soon
Princess - I would call them, whats the worst they can do
Hope - Glad you are feeling relaxed for now
AFM - The scan went well
So so nervous about EC though and being put to sleep. I know I will be ok and its just the unknown but s**ting myself
You'll be fine sweetie. Its normal to be nervous!! but you'll do great, honestly Yay!! oooh you will both be pupo before you know it!hey ladies, just a quick post...
had my scan. 3 follies nice and ready, lots of others a bit smaller, but they may still have time to catch up. Hcg shot is tonight, and tomorrow is shot free!
Tinks, don't worry about retrieval. I was terrified to be put out for my laparoscopy, and this is not as bad. We'll be fine.
On a happy note though. I've Managed a No2 WooHoo!!! so happy
