Or lovely, how long are you on holiday for? Glad your feeling better hun. I get really bad pmt, I dont know how my OH puts up with me!
Im ok, just waiting to get started with ICSI now. Going back to the hospital on Monday so we will find out exactly what is going to happen then. Im just hoping everything is going to go ahead. With them moving to a new hospital unit theres a few teething problems so fx everything is sorted for when we go in. The nurse said she was planning on booking me in for egg collection on the 22nd March but couldnt get to the diary for some reason or another so im hoping she has sorted everything out. Im a little bit worries of getting timings right, more on the work side and being able to get time off.

Hey sparkle and everyone...I know it has been a while and thanks for stopping by my journal to give me a kick in the rear to get me back on here! 
I need to read back when i get a chance and play catch up! As for us: I am giving hubby HCG injections to see if that increases his counts....which shit...tha reminds me...we forgot to do it this morning! Aggghh lol well, when he gets back I need to stick him in his arse!
It's been 2 weeks and initially it looked very promising, but yesterday his counts were near nil, so I don't know. Will keep you updated. I'm gonna try and read back to see what you all have been up to since i was gone. Nice to be back!

Hi Ladies, its the weekend!!!! Wooo!
I have told my office manager but I havnt told anyone else. I thought she had to know so that she would understand why I need time off if I need to take it at short notice.
Welcome back Grneydnurse! Hope your ok. My OH has a mate who took HCG injections and they worked a treat for his poor sperm count. It was so bad the doc told him it wasnt even worth trying IVF, but his count has gone through the roof! So fx things improve for you.

grneyednurse~ yay for you coming back in. Very keen to know how your dh gets on 
Not much point in reading up on me, I really have nowt exciting going on, though coming up to next consultant appt on march 8th, so need to work super hard to shift some weight.
obe~ do you have to take it as hol, or sickness? I'll be taking hol time after the ovarian drilling, cant really afford to be off sick.

Hey Obe, thanks for the positive story about your friend's OH, did they ever get BFP? I am hoping his goes through the roof too! But too early to tell for sure. I will be keeping an eye on you and your IVF for sure. I am so excited for you!
Sparkle: too late for seeing what is going on with you...done it and will be keeping track! lol I am rooting for you all! At least we all have something to try for now or actually have IVF starting soon...exciting! Hope we all turn this thread into 100% BFP rate soon!

Im with you on that! Hope the good luck is on its way to us!!!
Im taking any time off I need as holiday, I dont want people asking questions if I take time off as sick, plus it wont look good on my attendance so im happy to do it this way.
The girl I cover for and who covers me, is on holiday for a week, the week after I have my egg transfer, so im going to have to go back to work : ( but I am planning on taking a few days off towards the end of my tww and testing time. I only work in an office so I should be ok but we will see what happens!
Cant wait until Monday and we can know for sure what dates we are looking at.
Grneydnurse - his wife did fall pregnant but miscarried, so I think they are trying again. My OH wants to think about doing HCG injections if ICSI doesnt work for us, but were not talking about that for now.
I will let you all know how we get on on Monday anyway.
FX we all get there soon, we all bloody deserve it!!!

oooh - it'll be fantastic to get those dates so you know when its all gonna kick off!
I had to have another ultrasound and HVS (smear) 'cos the clinic rejected our referral 'cos the hospital had 'lost' those results. But... I'm calling the FS tomorrow to confirm they've both been done and they'll re-refer us.
Wonder how quickly we'll get our first appointment at the clinic for ICSI...

Our first appointment with the FS was in September. We knew right from the off what our problem was so it was just a case of confirming we needed ICSI. Weve been back twice since then. The 2nd was a follow up and the 3rd was signing the paper work.
Its taken us a little longer to get to the stage we are at because of the unit moving hospitals, so they closed over christmas while they were moving so there was a back log of people waiting to be treated.
If I had to do this all over again I would keep chasing appointments because you tend to get forgotten about. Keep calling and making sure youve been given your appointments.

Hi girls, hope your all ok?
Everything went ok at the hospital this morning. I had a scan (internal) which the nurse said looked fine. She thought I have already ovululated (which I thought was today).
Then she showed me what to do with the 1st injection, Prostap, which I take on the first day of my next period. I have to phone the hospital that day to book in for a pre stimulation scan. She said we will be shown how to take and what to take as we go along. I wish I had asked about when we would be doing egg collection so I can book some time off work, but my brain was working over time!
So there we go! Just a couple of weeks to wait now till we get started!!!! OMG!!
