Lindy- Have you triggered now? what time is your EC tomorrow? honestly dont be nervous it is completely painless and quick and you wake up so refreshed x

Yasmine- We may well cross paths tomorrow then. Good luck at appt x

Lisa- I understand why you are scared to enjoy this and so will any other woman who has ttc for a long time or had a loss. Just enjoy best you can and im sure after the 12wk mark you will feel a lot better. Keep us updated x

MrsE- You will soon be posting about your EC etc. Once stimms start the rest of the cycle does go very fast x

Hi to Laura, Melbram, Susie, Jane, Sharkey and all the gang x

AFM- Did trigger shot last night at 11am with the pen which was fine to use even tho i panicked as so used of syringes. lol. Took about 15 seconds and all done i am proud of myself for doing every single needle myself inc the trigger as i am very weak stomached Today is my needle free day and i have EC tomorrow morning at 11am. I am sooo excited and nervous! got a lot of butterflies in my tummy today but hoping that turns to embies asap ;-) xxx

Well done Sarah iv got ovitrell this time round too. Didnt realise it was a pen, i mentiond it to dh yesterday saying ill have to open the box to see and he wouldnt let me. He said it has to stay in the fridge until we are told to take it out so we cant take it out before. He is at work now so ill have a nosy later.

Lindylou they said that to me because i ended up in hospital with really bad pains after my ec. When the hospital in preston did an ultrasound scan they said my uterus looked tilted and that was causing me the pain. It was so painful i couldnt even stand up, as soon as they did an internal scan the pain disappeared. Mr Gazvani insisted that this was not the case and i had over stimulated and that is why i was in pain and due to this, i may have to wait if it happens again. When i questioned him on why the pain disappears after the scan if it was ohss, he had no answer. He still insisted on ohss but i know my body.

Have anyone of you been told about clexane? It is a drug which thins your blood and provideds a rich supply of blood to the uterus. It is usually taken after et. Someone i know took it and she became pregnant and she asked me to make sure i take it. She did say they doctors try and talk you out but insist on it as it reeally helps.

I have done some research and everyone that has had it has had a bfp. I also read some lady who worked as a nurse in a doctors surgry witness many ladies coming in for it at the surgery and they all became pregant apart from 1 and that was cuz she had 2 uteruses which was an unusual case.

I have also read that baby asprin works the same.

No harm in trying it out

Hi. Site keeps going down so can't reply.

I took trigger last night at 10-30. Worried about it all, and if they decide to freeze them. Big day tomorrow. I'm there at 9.30 tomorrow.

Baby dust- do they say not to take aspirin or is it just nurofen?

Hope all you others are ok.

Hi everyone,

Ive been coming on here every day checking up on you all and I cant tell you how valuable it is knowing that we are all going through the same thing. Its been such a big help to me.

Im just waiting to start the meds... we have our appointment tomorrow to learn how to use them and the we start on the 24th March.
So excited, its been suc a long time coming. Its especially diffcult as my brother and his wofe are expecting theior 1st baby at the end of april - roughly around the time when we will find out if this round has worked or not.
This is our 1st try and its a whole lot of mixed emotions, as Im sure you all know!

Will keep you posted on how things are going!


Wishing you all ots of luck xxx
