They will sort it Geek they may need to play hide and seek or hunt the ovie but I'm brooking no argument they will do it!

So Solars 3 eggs returned, you could be the mummy of the Solars 6 GrinGrin

Beedle when is your collection day?

Sorry not keeping up well over here, you're all so bloody busy working towards your BFP's I can't keep up.

Beedle well done with the covert trigger shot and good luck for tomorrow. Hope MrB gets on ok with his JIAJ too.

Geek gosh it sounds like it is all happening for you too. Are the clinic hopefully they will be able to retrieve some eggs? You sound like you have produced a good number. I am sure they will have a way of getting to them especially of you are having GA. Fingers crossed for MrG and the job situation too.

Solars how are your other embies coming along? How are you feeling about things now apart from terrified after reading that article Hang onto the 70m-1 odds.

Hope everyone else is doing well, I am Brooking for you all

keepitgoing · 03/06/2013 04:13

Good luck for today beedle!

solars did any embies make the freezer? When are you going to test?

geek they'll get to your ovaries. They will, they will, they will. I mean, it cant have gone all that far!? I'm sorry mrG's job looks to be in trouble, that might muck up the spreadsheet...

BeedlesPineNeedles · 03/06/2013 05:16

geek I'm sure they'll get to some of your eggs, you can't be the first person this has happened to. Hope it all goes well with Mrg's job, what hideous timing.

keep we ate Chinese yesterday, if I had thought about it earlier I would have chosen Thai food as it helped you get your BFP didn't it :o

Ok off for EC soon, please send some brooking vibes to mrb at around 8am (your time) and for any early risers brooking vibes for me a bit earlier that all my eggs haven't hatched prematurely. Will let you know numbers etc this afternoon. Now I'm off to drink some more water so my body doesn't notice I'm missing breakfast!

Brookety brook brook brook beedle x

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 03/06/2013 06:55

Brooking like billio for you both Beedle :):)

Solars · 03/06/2013 07:27

Sweetie I'm feeling quite nervous about it all but trying to keep calm, just really want things to work this time as not sure where we would go from here.

Keep we've still got 1 embie with us and they will let us know if it's suitable to freeze later on today. Test date is the 12th!! Eek!

Brooking for you Beedle & MrB

Good luck with your scan again today Geek hope you get to trigger tonight! They will sort out what's needed to be done so don't worry!

Beedle brooking like crazy for you and for MrB!

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 03/06/2013 09:00

Hope everything went ok Beedle

Geek fingers crossed they can get to the wandering ovary. I'm brooking for MrG too

BeedlesPineNeedles · 03/06/2013 11:39

We got 12 eggs :o :o

I think mrb sperm may have been a bit crap but I'm sure they can find 12 in there.

They won't let me know tomorrow how everything is going, we have to wait until we go in on wed pm for them to put one back. Unless it goes hideously wrong and we don't have any embryos, then they'll call us wed lunchtime Shock

Feeling a bit sore but not too bad. Thanks for all the brooking.

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 03/06/2013 11:55

Wow 12 eggs Beedle that's fantastic Grin

cartoontrickster · 03/06/2013 12:03

wow beedle amazing. hope the soreness doesn't last too long.

SweetieTime · 03/06/2013 12:12

woo hoo Beedle well done on 12 eggs. hope they are all getting jiggy now. roll on Wednesday

RubberBullets · 03/06/2013 12:31

12?! It seems like sniffer dogs is the way to go :o

cartoontrickster · 03/06/2013 12:33

what are these 'sniffer dogs'?

BeedlesPineNeedles · 03/06/2013 12:53

cartoon i had to spray the downregging drugs up my nose, so they were sniffer drugs which became sniffer dogs :o

I have to say 12 is more than I had thought possible. And as you say sweetie I hope they're all getting jiggy with it :o

ControlGeek · 03/06/2013 13:10

Oooh beedle 12!!! That's amazing!!! Brooking like crazy that they get jiggy with MrB's swimmers. Hope you don't feel sore for too long, and are able to get a bit of rest and put your feet up while you can.

I had a bit of a shock in the scan - my right ovary has gone a bit mental! They measured 13 on there, but counted 21 - just on the one ovary! The left still has 5 and they don't appear to have grown since yesterday's scan.

Righty has finally dropped with the weight of all those golden eggs, and the nurses both said that it looked like they can now access it for egg retrieval

Unfortunately, my body's responded so well that they decided it was a good idea to check my estradiol levels, and I've just had the call back to confirm that these are at 22,900. They won't do EC until they have dropped to at least 16,000, so I'm back to playing a waiting game. I have to stop the stims completely, and just keep up with the cetrotide to prevent early ovulation. I need a scan and blood test tomorrow morning, and they have warned me they are expecting to see my E2 levels rise even though I won't be taking any more stims. They should then plateau, and finally drop. I will need daily blood tests to monitor my levels.

So on that basis, I have absolutely no idea when EC will be - but I'm reasonably confident that we will now get eggs! As a rough guide, every 1000 units of E2 represent one egg so I've got potentially 23 of the blighters floating round! Not sure what happens when the E2 levels drop - will the eggs die off? No idea. But they've said it's no reason to cancel the cycle, we just need to coast for a bit until the E2 is more reasonable.

Sorry for the seriously mememe post.

Love and brooking to all, and thank you for the brooking vibes sent in my direction - they are obviously working overtime!!!

cartoontrickster · 03/06/2013 13:43

ah ok its a spray! I get it now Blush .
wow geek some of that's a bit over ny head, but sounds good. I'm brooking for both you and beedle
solars how are you? I'm waiting for your bfp announcement!

keepitgoing · 03/06/2013 15:43

Oh beedle well done you!! But what makes you think the sperm weren't brill? Anyway, its icsi. Gosh I can't believe they don't call tomorrow! Rest up.

geek Omg, that's pcos for you... I don't think the eggs die off as it drops, but I don't think people coast for too long usually. If its still high they can collect and not transfer. You will have a high risk of ohss once you trigger, so drink lots and lots. So pleased the heavily laden ovary is in a better place. Wowee!

keepitgoing · 03/06/2013 15:44

Drink water, not wine... Tut tut.

ControlGeek · 03/06/2013 16:12

keep no, I'm sure they meant drink lots of wine Grin

GenericDietCola · 03/06/2013 18:25

Wow Beedle, a dozen eggs all getting amorous with Mr b's swimmers. Brooking for them!

And Geek, all that brooking has paid off for your ovaries! Brooking for levels to drop so EC won't be delayed too much.

Brooking for everyone else too, especially Solars and the triplets !

Solars · 03/06/2013 21:40

Beedle that is fantastic news, well done you, I hope you can relax now until wednesday! I too can't believe the clinic don't even give you an update tmrw. MrB must also be relieved his duties for now are over.

Geek great to hear things are moving on and that there's still lots of hope this cycle will work out just fine.

Luckily work has kept me busy today and I also managed to have a bit of me time too this afternoon and relax.

Waves to Gen & Face I'm good thanks, I'm on the prednisolone now so worried I may be getting the round face soon!
