Put on your vest/shades and grab your weapons, it's Action Hero Time.

The BESH are experts in all matters action, but specialise in taking out the local droids and sometimes Druids Wink

Cover me, I'm going in!

Norf my clinic did EC 35 hrs after I took my trigger, so think there is a wee bit of leeway. I found being tipsey when I did mine really quite helpful. :)

Are you doing ok? I know this makes it all seem more real now. But really, you are on the home stretch - EC, then ET, then some absolutely menkul WOOFLING.

Frank when is Droid due?

Thanks for all the menkulling assistance ladies. The difficulty with being on the progesterone is that I can't be sure what is due to that and what is due to possible diffage.

I am feeling v crampy this evening - just like droid is about to turn up. I even thought I felt the first trickle an hour or so ago (for some reason, the first trickle always "tickles" me) and dashed off for some frantic knicker checking, but all seems well.

It's just been an emotional day, euro. From my first little sob at the thought of penguins to my last little sob at doing the last injection.

What time is blood tomorrow?

EuroShagmore · 12/02/2013 20:24

No particular time. Apparently I just rock up to get the form and then go and get blood drawn and then sit in the office googling frantically and doing no work until they call me . I'll go on the way into the office, of course, to try to get the results as early as possible!

I found the lead up to EC the hardest part. I was in a right state about it. As well as the general stress of IVF, I hate hospitals and panic about being out of control (and being knocked out it the epitome of that). I was in a mess (and apparently growled rudely at everyone who came to speak to me beforehand - -KFZK told me off afterwards Blush). I also had a stonking headache from missing breakfast/stress. When I woke up, it was all over and whatever would happen would happen. The stress levels lifted a bit then. So what I am trying to say is that once you get through the next 36 hrs, it gets a bit easier.

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 12/02/2013 20:29

Norf, with you on the emotional stuff. I've just listened to that telesummit thing and seem to have spent most of it in tears. It was mostly about EFT -Emotional Freedom Tapping - which is that tappy thing Paul McKenna does. Seems to work, I feel less of a wreck now at least!

Droid is due anytime between 16th and 18th Euro. Clinic reckons 18th, assuming 14/15dpo, but my first cycle on the drucks crashed to an end on 13dpo.

Oh yes, to rub it all in, I'm currently reading some scientific papers on managing horses for breeding. The one on top of the pile?

"The Problem Mare"

Sums us all up really Hmm

I may have a lot of ishoos, but I can be thankful that I don't have "poor perineal confirmation" or "adverse behaviour when in oestrus" like the lot I'm reading about Grin

OP posts:
EuroShagmore · 12/02/2013 21:07

I just go with "adverse behaviour at all times". Grin

Northey · 13/02/2013 07:27

Good luck today euro.

I packed my bag this morning with a pile of work papers, three pairs of knickers and two boxes of suppositories. I really hope I don't accidentally spill all that in the office.

HavingALittleFaithBaby · 13/02/2013 07:28

Good luck euro! I've everything I can crossed and have prayed to my preferred choice of deity.

Yes keep your bag closed Norf! :)

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 13/02/2013 07:46

Good luck Euro, I'll be at work chanting IOTO and rooting for your Barry Grin

I'll get my progesterone blood test results later, though I don't expect there to be any shock results!

Careful with that bag Norf Grin

Good luck with Barry, Euro.

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 13/02/2013 08:24

Don't trip over anything, Norf!

TWinklyLittleStar · 13/02/2013 08:43

Good luck for today euro & Barry

captainmoll · 13/02/2013 10:30

Good luck!

EuroShagmore · 13/02/2013 10:39

You're nearly there now, Norf. In 24 hours the worst will be over.

Frank I hope the blood test is as expected.

faif fanks for the deity chat. I'll take any help I can get at this time.

I have been bled. Now the absolutely menkul waiting period begins. If it is -ve, I'll be devestated. I did another pish stick this morning and there was a slightly darker line. But I am still cramping.

HavingALittleFaithBaby · 13/02/2013 10:49

That's what I reckoned euro, thought I'd throw one up there for you Smile

I had the cramps from about 10dpo and they went on for a couple of weeks. They're aren't an indicator of not being diffed. Obviously they feel similar to the imminent droid but can just be your uterus stretching...darker pish stick is good! Keeping the faith for the very young Barry!

norf you're welcome any time Wink

maamalady · 13/02/2013 10:55

Fingers crossed for all :) So much going on at the minute! Is there anyone left who isn't either stabbing or probably diffed?!

Why isn't it March yet? I want my IVF appointment so I have some clue what's going on...

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 13/02/2013 11:11

Well done Euro, fingers crossed.

Progesterone has come back at 68 which the nurses are happy with, so it's menkul time for the next week Confused

OP posts:
EuroShagmore · 13/02/2013 11:26

That's a good result, Frank! Let the OneWOOFLING begin!

maamalady · 13/02/2013 11:32

Excellent work, Frank!

What does WOOFLING mean, again?

HavingALittleFaithBaby · 13/02/2013 11:40

68 is excellent Frank. I never achieved more than 28 Hmm

It's positive. Blimey.

Congrulations. You have taken on the odds and beaten them
