    There is dressing up?! My Dummy ET's were just in my normal skirt. But I suppose there is more to worry about with the real one. I'll decide tomorrow.

    Clinic in this country, normal clothes, just shoe covers for OH (I took my shoes off). Clinic in Spain, I was gowned with nowt on underneath and OH was gowned up too (over his clothes obv).

    I've just spit tea out at the thought of all the OH's walking around in those gowns with nothing underneath and their @rses on show :rotfl:.

    ET at our clinic is gown and dressing gown for me, gown and shoe covers over clothes for OH.

    Good luck today T2D and Peonie!

    My OH was at ET and it was a full gown affair (I was allowed to wear my dressing gown when walking about though. I found it useful to have OH there because so many things passed in a blur (and TBH I wasn't really taking it all in) that it was handy to be able to quiz him afterwards about who said what etc.

    I hope you get a picture of your embryo...I don't know if it is standard to give them out but I really wasn't expecting one and was so exciting to see and keep!

    I've done my acupuncture and heading to clinic now for et. No call yet, which is good as they will only call if the embryos haven't made it.

    Trying to stay calm. Feeling quite weepy actually. Probably progesterone and worry.

  • Good luck ladies for today x

    Had my appointment today.
    latest results are now pointing towards ICSI.
    My results are fine, but OH SA again shows low motility, but this time count now down by half compared to last one 9 months ago, which was already low.
    Was so upsetting that SA results are worse. Both had a little cry, now a waiting a "group meeting" for final treatment plan.
    *hugs* to those that need it
