[latestarter]

Thanks Mrs. T.

This is also my second go-round with IVF, so I'm used to the injections. Although I must say, this morning's injection was not smooth sailing. Hurt a bit (a tiny bit) and I had a bit of blood, and that never happened even once last time. Think I did something wrong. Oh- well, lots of time to practice.

Brambletess - I think you are fine for the spa too. But if you are concerned check with your clinic. At my clinic, the nurses are fantastic for those kind of questions, so maybe try them? And have fun at the spa. I'm very jealous.

 

[Brambletess]

Yes I am probably being a bit over the top. I should relax a bit! a spa should sort that one out.

Latestarter - sorry injection hurt, obviously a bit rusty (you, not the needle!). I guess it must be a bit easier this time knowing what to expect etc..

Hey girls! I'm liking the Maybe baby name too haha!!
I've got just under a week until I start my down reg drugs. I'm feeling really apprehensive! Did any of you girls who have been through IVF before suffer any side effects from the drugs? When I was on Clomid I was like a woman possessed so I am slightly scared haha!! I don't know too much about my drugs yet as I do not have my appt at the hosp until the 8th of May and then I start the down reg on 9th May.

Brambletess - the spa sounds like a lovely idea, so relaxing......I'm quite jealous!!!!

Latestarter - how did your stimming go today?

Hi Roobie. My first IVF I was on superfact (buserelin) for down reg, and this time I'm on synarel. I had very few symptoms on both - slight headache the first few days, and then I guess my body got used to it. That was really it for me. (injections today were fine - I'm off to the races!) I've heard that some women who are on lupron have more symptoms, but then when they start stimming its better.

I tried clomid for two months, and I had way, way, way more symptoms.

Good luck with down reg...

Hi Latestarter. Thanks for that. How are you feeling today? I am also going to be takig buserelin (I think). How many days did you take it for, before you started stimming? Have a great time at the races!!

Wrightwales - Thanks for the signatures. I love the pink one !!!

Hi Girls,
Do you mind if I join you .. ?
I started DR on April 13th ( 0.5 ml burselin daily injections ) and I have to be honest I haven't suffered from one side effect at all in fact my OH commented last week about how pleasant I have been ... Not that I am not anyway !!

I have been quite clam about the whole process so far and haven't been at all anxious ... BUT theres always a But .... I went for my baseline scan yesterday morning after DR for 17 days and I haven't completely DR !! They've told me to carry on for another week and I have a rescan next Wednesday. My lining was at 5.5mm and they wont even contemplate stimming until its 4mm.
To say that this completely knocked my cool, calm and collective attitude is an understatement and after scrubbing the whole house top to bottom and completeing 3 loads of washing, drying and ironing I sat down and cried my heart out.

However Im back to my normal self today, full of PMA and looking forward to the future. I just keep telling myself that someday we will have the baby we so dearly want its just taking a liitle longer than we anticipated.

 

[Brambletess]

Emerald - a good cry really lets it all out and at least you have a lovely clean house now. I am sorry its a but bumpy the road. Hang on in there though - the PMA you have is brilliant. I have everything crossed for you.

Wrightywales - thanks for signatures. I think I like the pink one, although like red one too.

Roobie - hope the next week doesn't drag too much. I am sure you must be eager to get it all underway.

Morning All,

Wrightywales - the signatures are great. My favourites are the purple one and the yellow one. But they are all fine and I'd happily put any one of them on my siggy. So, ladies - which one should we use. And dumb techie question... how do you add them to your signature??

Welcome to the group Emerald. Sorry you are still down regging. My clinic did not even check to see if I was down regged enough. They just put me on the meds for a certain number of days and I started stimming yesterday. I'm not sure why as it seems most clinics do the check.

Injection this morning was smooth sailing. Seems like I'm getting the hang of it again.

Have a great day everyone.

Hey

Im stressed ladies right now, my company is merging with another and im def being made redundant. I will know if i have a job or not on the 2nd june. Great timing isnt it!!!

Hi Mrs T (& other ladies)

Sorry for the late reply, as to your question I'm not exactly sure what tablets I took as I'm living in Spain, one was a contraceptive pill, the other I'm not sure, (that's not very good is it? I just putmy trust in my Dr!! Anyway, these tablets also stopped my ovaries from doing anything, then I started the stimms. The other day when I went for the scan, I had 1 follicle bigger than the others which concerned the Dr (not my usual one) & he said it may be possible that we have to cancel the IVF because if it kept growing it wouldn't give the smaller follicles room to grow, (if that makes sense)? So, had to take another injection that hopefully slows down the growth of the larger follicle, enabling the others to grow. Took that & returned for another scan yesterday & all ok, (at the moment) smaller follicles are still growing & the bigger one not so much! So, back again tomorrow & we'll see.

Hope everything is going well with all you ladies.

Take care
Love Jayne x

 

[latestarter]

Hi all,

My favourite is Curtz - the purple siggy.

Jayne - I'm happy to hear the Dr. was able to slow the growth of the largest follie. At my first IVF attempt, they couldn't do anything for my lead follicles (I had 4 really big ones and a bunch of smaller ones) and I had to cancel the IVF. This time they changed up my protocol, so my fingers are crossed. My first blood test is Saturday.

I'm happy someone else here is stimming too! What is your protocol like?

Because I was cancelled my first time I'm really, really nervous this time around. I just want to get to retrieval!!!! I'm on Synarel for supression and hate it. I'm never sure if I'm getting enough, and it doesn't help that I have a cold (its a nasal spray). Saturday is my first blood test, so I can't wait to see where I'm at. This is soooo nerve wracking!
