January 2012 IVF

Woohoo, its so exciting us all shooting up :haha:

My first jab this morning went fine. It took me about 5 minutes to bring myself to do it. Weird considering I have been through it once already. I never felt it at all, just hope the rest are like that :shrug:

Good luck ladies xx
 
Is everyone injecting in the morning?? I'm doing mine at night so DH is there to do it for me :blush:

Hope everyone is ok and kristy well done on first Jab :thumbup:
 
Mine is once a day and the clinic says to do it between 6p and 8p, so I'm a night shooter :thumbup:
 
I shoot up in the mornings. Get it out the way lol.

Last time the first one was the hardest and I am sure will be the same this time. Its mixed emotions. I look forward to doing it but then I think OMG what am I doing :haha:
 
Well done on all the injecting in here (and Kristy's scan). I'm a night shooter, mine is a once a day and they recommend evenings. I also get my DH to do the stabbing for me :haha: Hate needles!
 
Hi ladies! can I join? hoping to start stimms (on short protocol), w/c 23rd jan but I think that might be put back a bit as still waiting for my flippin AF (cd78!) Grrr...
Anyways I know some of you already! Hi Kristy, princess and trask!
For those of you who don't me, this will be second icsi cycle and I'm egg sharing again. Last cycle went well apaprt from end result.
Gl to those already stimming and Dregging! xx
 
Hi Schoolteacher :hi: I hate the crazy long cycles. I get those from the PCOS when I'm not doped up on fertility meds. I ended up having my RE put me on BCP back in October because my natural cycle after the last IUI was 49 days and I didn't want to risk another long cycle screwing with our IVF plan. Can they give you provera or something to bring on AF?

Sending dust your way :dust:
 
4th shot done tonight and 1st centrocide, both went smoothly apart from the fact I had to do them in the pub toilets :haha:

:hi: st!

Hope everyone's well and stimming is going ok for those that are :thumbup
 
Just did my first official IVF shot! 300IU looks like an awful lot in the syringe.. oh well, gotta do what you gotta do :thumbup:
 
Got the first stim injection done. 400IU of follistim. Panicked a bit because the medicine didn't go in like I expected. The end turns rather than just being able to push it in. Hopefully will be easier tomorrow. Much more liquid to inject w/the follistim than the little 10 units of lupron.
 
I'm a bit ahead of everyone--I'll be triggering tomorrow and my ER is on Tues. Excited to have finally made it this far.

Fx'd for everyone!

I'm waiting to start bcp, but can't start til get AF! had bcp last time too. Have to take it for 2 weeks before stimms and meant to be starting stimms w/c 23rd! so as you can see I'm running out of time! boo!x

Happy sunday everyone! x
 
Follie scan tomorrow, very nervous but dying to see how many eggies there are!
St hoping af turns up soon!
Constance good luck for trigger :thumbup:

Hope everyone is well :hugs:
 
constance - good luck with the trigger :dust:

schoolteacher - hope AF shows soon for you, it is so frustrating when she won't cooperate

31 - I agree, these high does stems seem like a ton of meds when waiting for them to go in. At least now that you got the first one done the next should be easier.

princess - good luck for your scan

:dust: all around!
 
schoolteacher - fingers crossed that AF shows up soon for you. It doesn't make it any easier when your body doesn't do what you want it to!

Constance - ER on Tuesday! It will be here before you know it. Have they been giving you updates on your follicle counts?

Princess - Good luck tomorrow. It will be exciting to see what is cooking in there.

Update for today - MENOPUR BURNS! Holy cow! That stuff is zero fun.
 
31 andtrying-how rubbish about the menopur!

Good luck Constance and good luck princess for scan-can't wait to hear about your follies, I'm sure there will be plenty! xxx
 
Oh and 31andtrying can I be added to front page please?

Schoolteacher:
ICSI #2 (Gonal-F and Cetrotide)
Short protocol and egg sharing
Stimms: approx 23/1

Thanks!
 
Hello, mind if I join you on here? I've just started my 1st IVF and will be having ICSI due to DH having azoospermia. I'm on lomg protocol and started down regging last week, injecting Buserelin (0.25) I am due back to the clinic on the 17th for tests after which I will be told when to start stimming. My stims will be Gonal-F (225). I'm lookin at retrieval/ transfer at the end of January or very early February.
I'm in the UK and get 2 cycles on the NHS which is great as it means I don't have to pay, but on the other hand I don't get to make decisions on what drugs etc. Good to be able to share experiences though and to read about what other people are doing, makes you feel less alone. And of course the bottom line is wouldn't it be great to be bump buddies?
Lots of :dust: to all xx
