Apologies in advance for this VERY long post but I feel like I have been neglecting everyone for the past few days...
Mummy: 11 is great! Hope you are feeling better by now I know I was still in a bit of pain that night and the following day but was feeling fine 2 days after. Hope they fertilise well overnight and you get a good update tomorrow.
Hope your wind has improved... btw the pain in your other end may be from the pessories (I know I havent felt quite right since I started using them last wed... but now that I think about it - it depends where exactly you are putting them (so to speak) I have gone for (as DH says) up your bum because there is supposed to be better absorption and no leakage.... I know WAY WAY TMI)
Brumbar: Best of luck for tomorrow the ET is a piece of cake (I was really worried about being so stressed out that the embies wouldnt be able to get in (again maybe TMI....) ) but I listened to my hypnosis tracks in the waiting room and during the actual transfer (one ear in and one out so I could hear what was going on and it was no problem at all)
ACLIO: I had 2 grade one transfers and we also got 3 for the freezer we were told it looked liked 6 to be frozen but a couple of hours later when they went to freeze them they decided to use 3 only (the other 3 had fragmented and they said while they could have used them for a fresh transfer they wouldnt/were unlikely to survive freezing etc. - I guess its better knowing know rather than banking on them being viable later (but we were a bit disappointed)) Basically of the 4 grade 2s one had slipped to a grade 3 overnight so that was out of the equation. So of the 8 embies left they chose the top 2 for transfer and the discounted the 3 fragmented ones leaving us with 3 for later!
They said they only freeze grade 1 and 2 and there is virtually no difference in success rate between 1s and 2s just that they need to grade them.
Tansey, annmc30, MrsR32, cazd: thanks for the congrats and I have absolutely no idea how I will survive the 2WW (Mummy is going to help be with my ticker!)
I have a couple of early conference call in the morning I said I would honour but after that I think I will take some time off the clinic said there was nothing I could do to impact the result now even if I went on a trampoline straight after ET it would change the result so just do life as normal but my acupuncturist said to rest for a couple of days but then work as otherwise I would just have too much time on my hands to worry etc
So I think I will do a little of both I have an acupuncture session tomorrow and plan on watching TV after that! But I might work towards the end of the week.
One of the nurses said to us last week that basically nothing we do will change the result its either sticking or not but dont do anything you might regret if you dont end up with good news I think thats the best advice.
MrsR32: best of luck with the trigger shot tonight and EC on Wed!
Cazd: yah starting DR!
My test date is 24th............... we were told to hold off for 2 weeks before testing as the trigger shot can give a false positive if you test too early (I thought we would just keep on getting BFN until the levels were high enough to register so I would hope I could stay away from peeing on a stick till then but who knows...). When we went shopping after ET today DH disappeared and I assumed he wandered off to get shaving foam or something anyway he came back with a pregnancy test and suggested maybe he should keep it locked away for the next 2 weeks!!!
We got to the checkout and the Tesco lady picked it up to remove the security case and asked is this for good news or bad? All I could do was grin and say 'good I hope...'
Summer Breeze: dont worry about the 6 amps I started on 6 and went down to 4 half way through and we did really well with our collection. During the Stims I wasnt very positive as it seemed everything was going really slowly but we got there in the end and we were told slow is much better than too fast so chins up and see things grow at the next scan.
Summer Breeze & MrsR32: I really think acupuncture helped me get across the finish line so keep getting stuck! I had a session Sunday, ET today, another session tomorrow and then another one on day 5 after ET I was told if I get a BFP I will need further sessions to keep the 2 in there!
If it gets and keeps BFP then I am willing to stick with it (pardon the pun...)
Thanks again everyone and apologies if I have forgotten anyone I just hope we all get that BFP we want xxx
PS Mother-in-Law and DH managed to get the bee swarm into a new hive beside our existing one so hopefully these guys will stick too
(they are very fickle - if they don't their new home they wander off...)
landed for me today so I start DR tomorrow. I'm beside-myself excited about it.
But they did correct themselves in a few days. Hope that helped!
for DR tomorrow!
stuck in bed feeling sorry for myself lol. I hope I feel better soon! I got my pessary in (up my vag) lol tmi! Is that for the lining? What's it for?
He is obviously being nice to me becasue usually he would tell me to move my own!
