Waiting to start IVF in January anyone else?

[Bumpsparkle]

Hey just remembered, has anyone read any tips for thickening lining? I know that eggs, chicken (protein) are good for egg production but is it the same for lining? x

 

[MoBaby]

Good luck everyone getting your bfps!! I'm going to leave the thread. Hope I see you all in first Tri section soon. Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone.

Sorry, didn't wanna read and run but no I haven't heard... Maybe iron might be good? Er, like green leafy stuff not household appliances!

 

[Aurora CHK]

Big hugs Mo, we'll miss you and be thinking of you x

Hi Bumpsparkle,

The following are supposed to be good but I think it depends on the person:

Pineapple including the core
Pomegranate juice
Asparagus
Avocado
Nuts (brazils in particular)
Kale
Spinach
Broccoli
Almond milk

I have a terrible lining, and when I asked my consultant what we could do he said nothing. As he's a leading expert in this particular problem I'm guessing he would advise supplements or foods if they made any great difference - still, I have been eating all of these things!

My guess is that you may as well, although I think I'm out this month, but still, it's all healthy stuff so won't do any harm.

I've also taken Vit B6, Folic Acid and Vit E.

Best of luck!

Thats what ive read bumpsparkle and I think raspberry leaf tea and whole milk?
I havent actually been doing this but didnt really think about it til
It was too late, just hope I'm over 8mm Tuesday, I do drink whole milk though so at least thats something!

Sorry to see you go mo, we'll still be thinking of you xx

 

[BethK]

So so sorry Mo . Xx

 

[amoreamy]

Best wishes Mo, let us know what you're up to later on sometime xx

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

I haven't have a chance to catch up with the thread. But just want to say that I'm sorry to see you go Mo? I'll see you in the pregnancy thread soon!

 

[Bumpsparkle]

Mo, best of luck with your frozen transfers. We'll be thinking of you! x

 

[Bumpsparkle]

Thanks ladies. I'm sure the docs are right and would tell everyone to eat those things if it really does help, although it does help us think we're doing something positive in a situation where we have very little control lol!

(Right, I'm off to eat a supermarket chinese with non of those foods included...)

(Imagine an embarrassed smilie as I don't know how to do one of those!!)

Amoreamy -- The pen is a little awkward to inject, but it's fairly easy and doesn't hurt at all. I think I got it down, though!

Lizzie -- I agree it is easier to be able to control the injection =)

Mrs W -- The Menopur needs to be mixed. I get nervous mixing because I don't want to mess up so DH does all that for me haha

Aurora -- Ohhh! Thanks for my sticker and lollypop hehe I do love the pen as well. SO SO much easier.

Star -- I get pretty tired during stims as well and let's not talk about the progesterone.. jeez I can sleep all day on progesterone.

Bumpsparkle -- Thanks for the tip! Good luck at next scan!

Mo -- Thinking of you!


As for what I do for a living: I am actually a freelance stenographer. Very stressful job and I am always on edge. I do 50 percent of work wherever and the rest at home proofreading. Only plus is I can take off whenever I want or work afternoons/just mornings when I have appointments.


Have a good weekend everyone

Wow everyone has such interesting careers! I'm planning to develop mine as I basically planned my whole life around bring a stay home mum ASAP and that clearly didn't happen!!

 

[lizzie78]

Here you then aurora my job isn't intereting, I'm a telecoms delivery manager for one of the uk operators -yawn lol. I just moved to this company and am much happier which I'm hoping will have a positive impact on my Ivf outcome but the travelling is a lot worse. Not sure how we will manage but shelving that for if and when we get that bfp. I was fed up of my life being on hold and miserable waiting to get pregnant when in all honesty it might never happen so when this opportunity came up I seized it. Stressful job but generally enjoyable! Xxx

Hi ladies just catching up on the thread. I'm on my mobile so I'll do personals later as I can't look back and type at the same time on my phone.

I'm not sure if it's the stimms but I'm so tired just now and when I do go to bed I feel really restless, like I'm not getting a proper sleep.

Hope your all having a good weekend. I've been out with the girls all day. Went to cinema to see 50 shades of grey, I thought it was fab but then I loved the books. Went for dinner and drinks after or 'mocktails' for me. Was definitely strange for me as I do love a wine or three!!

As for what I do for a living, I'm a nurse working in trauma orthopaedics. Very busy and heavy hence why I've got over 3 weeks off from egg collection until after OTD! Xx

 

[star25]

Bumpsparkle, I had a Chinese tonight, prawns and veg so nothing too unhealthy, got a bag of nuts and fruit now and picking out all the Brazil nuts lol, dh has not long gone to work so watching casulty then probably be ready so sleep!

 

[star25]

Cmo, now ive started treatment again I seem restless at night, think out minds are always too busy thinking about things and whats going to happen next, your job does sound very busy must wear you out!

Bump: ask you dr whether using a heating pad helps. I think I once did 20 mins per day and got a nice lining.
