AFM - scan yesterday, they counted 14 follies of varying sizes between 10 - 17mm. Got a call in the afternoon and I'm all set for trigger tonight and ec on Monday! Eekk! Was not expecting it to be so fast, I'd taken wed- Fri off work so I had to change the days. Just done the last lot of injections, only 2 more nasal sprays and the trigger to go.

Hugs everyone xc

Wow 14!! That's quite a collection ! Good luck for EC on Monday, it does seem very fast but I think with all the injections and hospital appointments we have time passes quickly.........the 2WW takes forever though. Xx

Cwtw no I've not tried it, will have a look for it though. What sort of pharmacy can you get it in?

Think you can get it on prescription Partmouse, cos it's quite expensive. My pharmacy doesn't sell it, but dispense it OTC for hubby, who has bad psoriasis x

Thanks for the info, my scalp feels and looks better just after its been washed but the next day it's back to peeling away again.

PM - hope you can sort the bleeding. I can't believe your GP's nurse is more concerned with the smear test than your bleeding (not saying smears aren't important but surely your bleeding is the priority). I take vitD, vitB complex, zinc (essential for egg formation) and folic acid (wishful thinking). Apparently most people in Britain are vitD deficient due to lack of sunlight.

Vesper - don't apologise, all rants welcome here.

Sewit good luck with EC. What trigger did you take?
Fairy, Frozen - how are you?

Haven't heard from the embryologist today so I'm assuming my embryos are fine. She'll call me tomorrow morning and make the final decision on a 3 day or 5 day transfer. Keep worrying she'll tell me our embryos didn't make but we have 4(!) this time; sooo relieved that ICSI worked.

Rg I've got everything tightly crossed for you. Even though I've changed gp I've not found anyone that will help with the bleeding.i know I need another smear but saying to cone back when not bleeding isn't really helpful.

Rowingirl

My embryo transfer has been postponed until Tuesday as we have 4 top grade embryos. Hopefully they will develop into blastocysts.

Good luck tomorrow Sewit. I hope you have a decent haul of eggs.

PM I hope someone can stop your bleeding very soon. I can't believe that nurse's attitude.

Rg fab news for you. Wishing all the ladies going through treatment lots of luck.

Just had lunch and totally shattered again, I just can't stay awake.

That's great news RG! Am keeping everything crossed for Tuesday for you. Xxx

Thanks for the good wishes for tomorrow, am a bit nervous. EC was put back to the afternoon as the clinic couldn't get an anethistist to cover the morning. So I'd to take my trigger a bit later. Trigger was ovetrill, or something close to that! I can't remember the exact name.

Frozen/Fairy how are you getting on?

Hi and hugs to everyone else xx
