Hi there, starting treatment in next few months after 3 1/2 years of trying naturally. Anyone else starting IVF/ICSI in next few months? I have very low AMH so odds are very low x

@Furmummy not booked me in yet. They tend to go day by day at my clinic so they'll just tell me in the afternoon when I should trigger that night. I reckon it will be in the next couple of days.

Janefx40 · 27/03/2021 22:00

So all change here. Triggered tonight. EC Monday morning. Eeekk!

Furmummy · 27/03/2021 22:37

Any hints or tips to stop injections being too painful

Janefx40 · 30/03/2021 15:24

@Mrs32 that is great news. I'm excited for you. To be honest I have never found injections particularly painful. People do try things like icing the area but most of the time it is just a sharp prick and then fine. Most areas of the tummy it goes in easily but occasionally you hit a bit of skin that is resistant or a bit more sore. You can always just stop and pick another spot (technically you should put a clean needle on). Personally I usually just push through it. Sometimes it stings a little as the meds go in.

Personally I think it is best to count to three and just go for it. Good luck!!!

Janefx40 · 30/03/2021 15:26

@Furmummy how are you feeling? I hope you're coping ok with the 2WW. It is so hard sometimes xxx

Furmummy · 30/03/2021 16:45

I am ok thanks, feel like I have having twinges in stomach and really tired .. I have gone crazy doing tests ... I am showing a faint positive today that’s stronger than yesterday so am slightly hopeful .... I am day 7 today so could be ... my clinic have said to test on day 15 which is so long away still ... how’s your restful day going? Xxx

OP posts:
Furmummy · 30/03/2021 16:47

Aww that’s great news ... I ended up bring useless at injecting myself so just let my husband . However never really hurt .. I used to leave the antiseptic wipe on for a minute before doing it, the menupur is better slowly as can slightly sting if done too quick .. but they were fine ... so excited for U xxx

Mrs32 · 30/03/2021 16:53

@janefx40 thank you
I think im going to do the 3,2,1 stab technique LOL

Keep me posted on how youre feelling and how things are going xXx

Thamk you for all the support

Janefx40 · 30/03/2021 20:10

@Furmummy I can totally relate to doing tests. I did a test the day after my trigger because I knew I had Hcg in my system and wanted to see a positive test even tho obviously it's not because I'm pregnant! Now that is slightly tragic I'll admit. I actually really enjoyed it Blush

It sounds promising if it's getting stronger as the trigger should be getting weaker by now. Fingers crossed.

If I get as far as a transfer, I think I'm going to test out my trigger with cheap tests but avoid using the FRER until nearer the test date. Xxx

Mrs32 · 30/03/2021 20:11

@furmummy OMG hun i just read your messages, a faint positive is still a positive aaaaaaaargh are you super excited
I am so happy im praying that positive gets stronger and stronger oooooooh so exciting

Furmummy · 31/03/2021 07:01

@Janefx40 that’s a great idea -I wish I had done that as got myself confused earlier in the week with a positive that was prob still the trigger. Since then had negative, then 3 days of positives .. so fingers crossed. Hope your ok, bet you can’t wait to hear from the clinic with an update. Xx

@Mrs32 thank you ... it’s still there today and slightly stronger - am day 8 today so am starting to get excited xxx good luck with the injections xxx

OP posts:
Janefx40 · 31/03/2021 07:25

@Furmummy oh that's amazing. If you've seen a negative post transfer and now positive that can only mean one thing. You must be feeling so excited xxxxx

Furmummy · 31/03/2021 08:22

Hopefully ... trying not to get too excited till official test day but it’s looking likely eeeek

I also feel sick and didn’t enjoy my coffee this morning which is a first to me ...

Desperate for confirmation and scan to see if it is and if so 1 or 2 😬😬 xxx

OP posts:
Mrs32 · 31/03/2021 10:57
