Boody hell - busy here tonight my lovelies.
Nelly - my follie count and size looked very poor at my first scan. I agree, you may need an increased dose. 225 doesn't sound that much - I had loads more stim drugs than that and my BMI is about 21.5. I say keep going despite the recent phone call. Like Art I don't know much about what low oestorgen means but you DO ovulate and the advise others have given sounds great! You are not menapausal and I think there is still chances and time. I bet you are a slow grower. But I am really really thinking of you. I am with you every step of the way. And if they didn't get a good look at both ovaries at scan then there may be follies playing hide and seek. I agree with Rabbit -that woman has poor bedside manner! It's her job to be informed about you and not instigate silly panic. Oh sweetheart - what a crappy day. When my stimming was going badly and I was told I was in ovarian decline
I had emergency acupuncture which in my opinion did help. Can you get in anywhere quick for 2 - 3 sessions? No babies in skyfall - get a supersize bag of maltersers!
Heart - hooray, I am thrilled that the recent scan went well. Just goes to show that symptoms are not essential. I say go join the antenatal thread and enjoy your very special pregnancy!
Mellow - what a relief. That is such great news about your scan. Good luck for the next one but in the mean time, relax a little if you can.
Buzz and Euro - thank you so much for the job advice.
Joy - In relation to the op - I would prefer to have my op under current workplace. But new emlployer want me asap and being arsey about it. So start date is as soon as it can be. This means in all likelyhood I will be working with new employers for 2 weeks and then going off for the op. Not ideal at all. But I have told them about the gynae issues. And I simply can't do anymore to make the universe spin they way I want it. I am 10 dpo today. Although I am still a little heavy and bloated, no way am I preggo. I'm already on the
. I usually drink plenty of water but maybe not enough just lately. The antibiotics period sounds amazing! Wow - this is starting to feel like something might just happen.
Art - I know what you mean about the scanner being uncomfy when pressed on the bladder - I thought I was going to squirt wee in to the Dr's eye. I bet people have you know
. Happy Birthday and extra slices of birthday cake sounds perfect. The transfer sounded like it went well. Embryos at that stage have every chance - do not worry one jot about how they were graded - no one knows what will happen next. I can very much recommend the new magnum chocolate icecream which comes in a tub to help with the extra layer. 
Gin - grumbles are a normal part of progesterone support and no bearing on how gordon and saphire are getting on. Please don't worry, they have a really good chance. Try and keep yourself busy for a few more days. Sorry for the angry fighty mood - not your fault. It;'s Romulus' and Remis' fault.
Rabbit - hooray for shooting. "Run rabbit run rabbit run run run, don't let the farmer catch you with his gun." The 2 year mark isn't easy. It is tough. And I just want to give you a big squeezy hug. 2 years doesn't change your odds - please keep remember your recent BFP!!!!!!!! It will happen again sweetheart.
O my Lord - doll - what a crazy situation. Not even a glass of water - wanking in the toilet - chilly fanjo - throwing up -
. But wow wow wow at 4 beautiful eggs. Every chance they will fertilse beautifully. Ooo well done honey. Make sure you rest and are kind to yourself over the weekend. Let us know what the embryologist's say.
Hello to Buzz, Critter, Pout, Euro, and everyone.
Work crap update - I met with big boss today who told me I was leaving our service 'under strain' as there was no cover for hospital service when I leave.
. She told me she was rejecting my resignation
. I protested that I could leave as long as contractual leave notice was fulfilled (thanks Euro) and I said my leave date WAS carefully planned around the service needs as well as my own needs and I had delayed the new job start already to help out over the busy christmas period. Big boss then checked the annual leave register and realised that my line manager (who had put this whole issue forward) was the only one in the team on leave that week. Therefore cover can be sorted, with out any huge problems. I then received THE BIGGEST apology ever from big boss. She was very cross that my line manager had basically "spun her a yarn" as she put it about how much stress the service would be under if I left. They were actually looking in to legally blocking me resigning based on the made up shit little boss had been spouting
don't know how they would have done that although front line hospital staff can be accused of bed blocking if they don't do their jobs properly which can become a legal issue - hell I don't know. Now I have every blessing to leave on 14th Jan with a week of annual leave before (which will help me sort my head)
. Big boss was really nice and very embarressed that she had acted in the way she did - but it wasn't really her fault, little boss has ben talking crapola - she may have issues me thinks.
I am still in the tent.
I am still a bit windy.
This has been a weird cycle. But I am having temporary respite from all the shit. Just had some supermarket ready made roast chicken with ready made carrot and potato mash followed by magnum icreacream from a tub and lots of rioja!
. Ah - that's better. The BMI thing is intersting. I think mine might be 21.5 ish too Gin but last year and prior to that it was likely around the 20 or 20.5 mark - very interesting.
