beedle well done, now rest up. Try not to think about it, you could ask more questions if it fails.

WHICH IT WON'T. We are brooking right behind you.

It's fate so you can be twin buddies with sweetie

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 05/06/2013 16:33

Well done Beedle, now you're a pupo it's time to put your feet up! Brooking for the Beedle 2 and the Solars 6 3 Wink

You're next Geek then is it Maybe? Can't keep up with you all.

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 05/06/2013 16:34

Well done Beedle you and Solars are now PUPO Smile with Sweetie you will be able to start your own multiple gang!
Some of the information I've been given by my clinic mentions the risk of none or low numbers fertilising with ICSI. I think even though its low risk it can go wrong when injecting into the egg. The leaflet points out that and the risks of losing eggs when trying to get to blasto.
I'm brooking for a super quick tww.

Geek have you had chicken pox? Have you called the clinic? I personally wouldn't be particularly concerned as you haven't had any direct contact. It's easy for me to say though as I'm around sick kids all day so I get a bit complacent!! Btw I've never had chicken pox, I've had the vaccine but have not developed antibodies when last checked. I quite often see kids with something else wrong & the mum will suddenly pipe up that they also have chicken pox! It makes for an interesting few weeks anxiously waiting to get it Grin I never have though.
I hope MrG's job is safe but it's good that you have options for the worst case scenario.

Maybe lovely to have you back! Sorry to hear you've had rubbish symptoms from down regging. Hopefully it will get better with stimming. I often find at work that the amount in drug vials can be more than it should be. Did you manage to speak to anyone about it?

It's our wedding anniversary so we are off out for a meal

NoMaybeAboutIt · 05/06/2013 16:48

Happy anniversary Cups hope you have a lovely meal. I didn't speak to anyone decided I should stop worrying. I know how to draw up half a ml in a syring, I've done it enough times Grin so I think you are right, it must just be overfilled in case of people losing some.

Beedle this is the best news! I am sure those embies are making themselves comfy as we speak. Have yo got a nice relaxing evening planned?

Boo you are right, tis Geek next, then me. How is booby?

ControlGeek · 05/06/2013 17:17

Beedle, I'm sorry, I thought you'd had ivf. But you have two good'uns getting comfy, and another in the freezer. All will be fine xx

Cup yes I've had chicken pox but didn't know if that made any difference. Had a lovely reply on my fred though so feeling better about it now.

Sorry, am on phone so can't read back and have already forgoten everythimg I have read!

Well, I am now free for a week and two days, yay! Am alrrady enjoying an injection free evening, and weirdly looking forward to tomorrow.

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 05/06/2013 17:26

Thanks Maybe I'm busy beautifying before MrCups gets home Grin

Geek you still need to avoid chicken pox if pregnant whether you have had it or not. I thought if you hadn't had it then I would recommend you speaking to the clinic as I can imagine if you developed it before ET it might cause them to cancel the cycle. But that's not the case with you so I'm sure there is nothing to worry about.

Solars · 05/06/2013 21:43

Hey Cups Happy Annivesary to you and DH, hope you've had a lovely evening!

Good luck tomorrow Geek, look forward to your update and yay for being off work as well now!

Bleurgh - been up well over half an hour. This time of the day ought to be illegal :(

cups hope you had a lovely anniversary last night!

BeedlesPineNeedles · 06/06/2013 07:05

Good luck today geek

cups hope you had a lovely time last night

maybe I also had some liquid left in my menopur vials when I had already taken the amount they theoretically had in them.

NoMaybeAboutIt · 06/06/2013 08:37

Good luck today Geek brooking for many a golden egg.

Thanks Beedle I seem to still have quite a bit. But panicking I am not Wink. How are you feeling you PUPO person you?

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 06/06/2013 08:55

Good luck Geek for today

I had a nice night thanks. I'm a bit tired now as got to bed pretty late.

AF is due in a couple of days, I've got all the usual signs so I really want her to get a move on so I can request treatment again.

SweetieTime · 06/06/2013 09:55

Good luck for today geek I am Brooking for a great supply of golden eggs

ControlGeek · 06/06/2013 10:04

Morning ladies.

Good luck cups for getting accepted this cycle. They daren't not - they should know we brookers are on the case.

They managed to get 8 eggs, mostly from the good ovary. There were a few on the top of the ovary that they just couldn't reach. MrG has also done his bit, and seemed pleased with what he achieved. He's not been asked for another sample yet, though it said in our leaflet they may need a second. It's now all in the hands of the embryologist. Should find out tomorrow about fertilisation.

BeedlesPineNeedles · 06/06/2013 10:17

Well done geek 8 eggs is great

Now you get some rest!

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 06/06/2013 10:19

Ooh Geek well done. 8 eggs is fantastic, now put your feet up and enjoy the sunshine Smile

Solars · 06/06/2013 10:30

Geek great news on the 8 eggs, well done x

OP posts:
SweetieTime · 06/06/2013 11:29

geek well done on 8 that is a great number. are you going to swi to try catch any eggs as they pop that couldn't be reached?
well done MrG on his bit too.

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 06/06/2013 11:34

Ooh good plan Sweetie, all those lovely golden eggs just waiting, aone on Geek surely that's too good an opportunity to miss! 8 is fantastic! Well done both of you.

keepitgoing · 06/06/2013 11:47

I wouldn't swi, with another 15 at least eggs floating round... 8 is brilliant, well done you, and them. Hope you're not too sore? :)

Shimmies into well rehearsed fertilization dance, together with the double stick emby dance for beedle and solars. (Lucky I've just had a power map...)

BeedlesPineNeedles · 06/06/2013 12:16

I'm not sure geek should be having swi, we don't want her to be the next octomum Shock

cups really hope you get accepted this time

NoMaybeAboutIt · 06/06/2013 12:44

Well done Geek! 8 is a fantastic number. Hope you are resting in the sunshine and being waited on hand and foot. I also don't think is SWI. contemplates octuplets

Munxx · 06/06/2013 13:43

Oh I am brooking so very very hard for you all, I've been lurking like anything!

ControlGeek · 06/06/2013 14:21

Thanks Ladies

beedle brooking for implantation for you, and for some proper burrowing for solars - grow embies, grow!

keep a power map eh? Does that take you places faster?

For better or worse, MrG and I have done some SWI. The nurse said there were only a couple of mature follicles remaining on the right that they couldn't reach, the rest were too small to house mature eggs. They weren't able to get anything off the left ovary. The follicles they did drain from there just produced chocolate blood, a bit like the endometrioma that I had the op to get rid of, so we can safely write that ovary off in terms of viability.

Poor MrG though. I have a stitch up my foof as they'd had to do a fair bit of rummaging and I wouldn't stop bleeding. MrG must have somehow caught the stitch, because he's cut himself in a very tender spot Blush

I'm off for a lie down for a bit :)

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 06/06/2013 15:01

BlushGrinShock ooh poor Mr G!

SweetieTime · 06/06/2013 15:22

I second poor MrG Blush Shock Blush Hope you are feeling ok Geek and well done on the swi even if it means you will be octomum
