The Trials & Tribulations of Trying to Conceive when its just not happening (12m+)

tea_lover

Hello again, well scan went much as expected (ie, not much happening yet!) We compared the graphs and it's exactly the same as last time, so I'm not worrying about it. I'm clearly just a late developer with lazy ovaries They're keeping me on 150mg menopur for now as obviously none of us want OHSS again! Start cetrotide as well this evening.

Feeling v calm about it all (for which I thank the IVF relaxation CD lady). Would be calmer still if I didn't have to come to work and deal with the world's most annoying 'colleague'.... such a pita. But I will do my best to stay zen about it all lol.

Hope everyone else is doing ok, best of luck to everyone with appointments today xx.

Tea glad to hear your feeling relaxed, your ovaries sound very much like mine. I hope things stay on track and pick up soon for you.

Just tried to get an appt with the nurse for my smear but shes on leave for a week and will be back to crazy bleeding then.

Confirmed EC on Wednesday and trigger shot tonight. Scan showed 11 possible eggs so far

Woohoo star - that's brilliant!! :j:D:j

picklekin - that's a bit rubbish. Any chance it's implantation bleeding, or am I clutching at straws??

good vibes - am egg-dancing for you! Got everything crossed for a great haul on Wednesday.

PM - hope you're feeling ok.

Next scan is wednesday morning.... so will be continuing to drink lots of water (and milk, when I can stomach it), eat lots of protein, stay calm and keep my tummy warm.

I hoped that too, but google says the earliest that can happen is 6 days DPO, now because I've been in a mess I didn't track OV this month, but it sure wasn't at CD8 sadly We've only DTD twice this month anyway as we've been a stressed mess I think the hallowed mythical implantation bleeding is probably less that this though, like a splot.

And no, its not usual at all, I know I shouldn't moan as PM you have it worse, but its confusing and odd. I'm not sure if it makes me CD1 or not either!
