BMW yeah for getting started!!

Aurora congrats on being pupo! Hope they are both snuggling in nicely!

AFM - here comes the meltdown...... So phoned clinic for my blood test results and they just said to stay on my same dose of stims but instead of going for another scan on fri I've to wait until mon!!! WTF mon will be day 12 of stims!! The logical part of my brain is saying it makes sense that my follicles are small, they have just shut my system down with drugs, so it makes sense and scan again on Monday where there'll hopefully be a massive growth cos clearly on fri they still won't be big enough to arrange egg collection. Does this make logical sense??

However my ivf warped brain is saying there must be something seriously wrong if they want to wait another whole week before scanning again. And I was hoping egg collection would be next week. Do you think this will still be possible? And... If everything is so small should they not scan sooner incase they need to up my dose?? Driving myself nuts here!!!!

Ladies, AF is FINALLY in the building! (Day 38 is a record!)

Got baseline booked for 2mrw but not getting hopes up for FET this cycle as prepared that there could be another cyst again which has caused this issue, so going to see what the clinic say (and see on their screen) before jumping to join you all. No point wasting our best embie if my body's not ready x

 

[Bumpsparkle]

Great news BMW! You're on the rollercoaster. Good luck for 2mrw's scan x

Aurora - congrats on being PUPO!

CMO - I'm sure the clinic are just giving your follies some extra time. Slow and steady is good for quality! My clinic has always made me wait til stimming day 7 or 8 for first stimming scan so your follicles sound fine for day 5 x

 

[beneathmywing]

Bumpsparkle -- our af's must have called each other!!! Woohoooo! Good luck tomorrow.

Cmo -- im sure your clinic knows what they are doing!! Try to relax and trust the process even though I know how hard that really is.

Ladies, I get to join the stimming party! Af is here!!!

Fx for baseline being A-OK!

CMo, I had day 13 of stims as my last stim scan, it was a Tues, and I had EC on the Thurs, which would have been day 15. I also still stimmed on the night of the trigger itself. Did they tell you what their threshold us for collection - is it 3 follies at 1.8 or over like mine was?

 

[star25]

Bumpsparkle, yay!! Hope all is ok at baseline and it's just a late af, our transfers might be near each other as I have to wait an extra week :

Cmo, I think you will be fine as if they were concerned they would ask you in sooner, try not to worry
Easy for me to say after my panicking about my lining which I still am slightly, it's natural to worry though as we want it so much

 

[Mrs W 11]

Bump and BMW yay for af! Welcome to the party! Hope your baseline scans go well tomorrow.

Aurora, pupo, yay! Sorry you haven't got frosties but brilliants news that you have 2 good quality embies on board! Got a good feeling for you.

Cmo I imagine they just think you need more stimming time to let the follies slowly grow. You are responding and reacting to the mess so try not to worry.

I've got my day5 scan tomorrow, I've felt nothing so far and I'm really nervous that I won't have responded.

 

[Mrs W 11]

Ooh bump what time is your scan?! Might see you at complete x

 

[MoBaby]

great news bump!!!

cmo you still need those follicles to grow another 10 mm to be mature. So really scanning you any sooner may not be beneficial. You are looking at least 5 more days which including today would be a scan saturday so I wonder why they wont scan on saturday? I assume they are correlating with your estradiol level as well. I am sure they know what they are doing.

 

[Bumpsparkle]

Mrs W - in for scan at lunchtime which is a pain coz parking can be a nightmare up there at that time. Phoned up around 3ish so probably the only time left available.

 

[lizzie78]

Ate too many sweets tonight and given myself a sugar hangover so just a quick one to wish everyone with scans luck tomorrow before going back to bed xxx

Aww! Lol thanks, sweety ❤️

Cmo- I think that sounds quite steady to me. I know it's frustrating but I don't think you should worry about the wait, it sounds like your on schedule otherwise they would adjust your dose. If it helps I'm not having my first scan until day 10 of stims (I'm day 7 today).

comfy and lizzie- the tww is difficult but hang on in there! The cervix is no measure of pregnancy, it changes constantly through the day sometimes. I read a whole thing about it on fertility friend once Thinking of you both, it must be so tough when it's just a waiting game.

Beneath and bump- Woo hoo! Let the stimming the party begin! Good luck with your scans

Aurora- Pupo! congrats! A full bladder for that long must have been awful, but the babes are aboard!

Mrs w- keep the faith, I'm sure you're responding, my body is only just giving me signs of stimming after 7 days, and I know some people don't ever feel any different. Don't worry x

Afm, not a lot of news, still tired, I have a big hard tummy and twinges and more bloods tomorrow! I have a day off tomorrow thank goodness! x

My RE called me earlier himself. So sweet of him! Totally not expecting that. Anyways, he asked if any bleeding or spotting, etc and how I was doing. He was optimistic but I was negative nelly. But we moved my beta check until thursday because the roads here have gotten ice covered so it may be a little unsafe to drive almost 20 miles to get to the clinic. So I will have to wait one more day. Not expecting a miracle, although it would be nice. He did say he has seen plenty of pregnancies in this range.

How many dpts were you at beta? Have you done more FRERs and were they darker? I think that will give you a good indication.

Limbo is the worst
