Coggy's Catch Up........

It seems FOREVER ago that I was properly on MN and obssessively ttc!
Only 2 1/2 months ago but alot has happened in that time I expect (no.....sadly no bfp from me yet!!!)
I guess that Debbsy has had her Bibsy and maybe Peachy too......BooBoo next month.....lots of other BFPs??????
Natty, MrsMc and Trace have kept me with some of the news on here.

Here's a quick catch-up with me and what is happening.....
I am CD25 of a usual 26/27 day cycle with all the classic AF signs.....cramps, tiredness, wind etc. etc. (It's nice to be back!! )
I am starting IUI this next cycle so I am only a couple of days away from that and VERY excited and VERY nervous about jabbing myself too!
I figured as well as catching up with my old ttc buddies I could also moan and groan merrily away about it all on this thread and (hopefully) get a little bit of (much needed) sympathy at the same time!!!

I am SUCH a wimp really!!!!
Roll on CD1......

Hey coggy, lovely to hear from you again!

So you're doing IUI with injectibles this cycle? Is it Menopur you're using?

I'm currently in my first IVF cycle, and have been injecting Menopur for just over one week. Egg collection is Tuesday - I'm both scared and excited. I was injecting Buserelin for a couple of weeks before that as well.

If this is your first time injecting, trust me that it's painless. It's a teeny tiny needle, and you won't feel it at all. It took me a little while to get over the mental barrier of sticking a needle into myself the first time, but it's been a doddle since then. And I'm the biggest wimp going - I passed out the last time I had a blood test!

Hugs,
Artoo.
