@79andnotout sorry to hear about the scan. Fingers crossed for the next stage and that more grow in size in the meantime. It's such an ordeal all of this. Hope you're doing ok. In terms of egg white cervical mucus, I seem to have a lot too... I think it's normal, so wouldn't worry.
@thefishthatcouldwish I couldn't really say what's good, as I think I just hear everyone say it's mainly down to egg quality.. so high numbers don't always means the best. But it seems good to me. Good luck.
@poupou hope you're feeling a bit better. I'm on day 6 stims on Menapur and Cetrotide. On the first couple of days on Menapur I had terrible headaches, felt tired and my mood was all over the place. I can be highly strung at the best of times, so this did not go down well with the other half :) I'm feeling a bit better this week though, less headaches... still feel a bit tetchy though... I think if you are feeling down, it probably is the drugs. Firstly this is an insane process.. especially when you have to put so much into it, emotion, energy, time and money... and the odds are massively against you.. it's hard not to get in your head about it all, nevermind the drugs screwing your mind over. Hang in there xx
@UnicornPuff best of luck for your EC tomorrow. xx
@ChicaXS I started Cetrotide yesterday and it has been absolutely fine. Didn't sting as much as Menopur I found.. you're supposed to let the solution go to room temp (leave it out for 30 mins) it says in the instructions, so not sure if it's cold if it stings... who knows... it's been fine for me.
@zebra80 glad the injections have been ok... I must just be a few days ahead of you as started Cetrotide with the Menopur yesterday. It's not been so bad,,, except the weekend when I had really bad headaches and just felt off and tired.
@pattaz2711 I know how you feel... when I was out having a walk at the weekend I couldn't stand to be near other people because my head was banging and then this lady licked an ice cream a metre or so away from me, I know it sounds strange, but seeing her lick the ice cream repulsed me so much that I nearly lost my shit. I just walked away. Strange things these hormone drugs! haha lols that you say you can't blame it on the medication though, haha
@JandL2020 good news on the scan, hopefully you can still go ahead with a FET, but if not, it still sounds very positive.
@Unicornpuff your EC sounds like it was a success, fingers crossed for the next stage. It's so hard waiting isn't it.
@AllySC welcome to the thread. sorry you've had such a hard time.. I hope things turn around with the intralipids.
Sorry if I've missed anyone. There's been so many messages.
I'm due to have my day 10 scan on Sunday. I honestly don't know what to expect... I'm hoping for good news... but it's out of my control isn't it.. that's what's the most annoying thing about this whole thing! In some ways I can't even believe I'm actually doing this. It really is intense. My haramaki arrived today from nukunuku.co.uk I do feel a little bit silly I have to say. I'm sure overall it probably won't make much if any difference, but hey, I get cold a lot anyway, and it does make you feel a little warmer. I've found the hormones have made me really thirsty, so I've been drinking a lot...
Out of interest, what's the average time that people do stims for before taking their triggering shot... I'm just wondering whether it's likely they'll say to take it on my day 10 scan or keep going for a few days... who knows? Hope everyone is doing ok in this busy thread. Take care everyone xxxxx
