Made a new thread because idk if it's the same for use but on the app I have to scroll millions of pages before getting to the most recent comment on the other one with having so many replies? 🤷‍♀️

Nattx · 22/09/2020 21:38

I'm excited but nervous at the same time more so for collection, it think it's more the unknown than anything else 🤷‍♀️ it's all coming so quickly now I just wish I had put more effort into weight loss during the lockdown 🐷🤣 x

Haha oh I know I keep talking about plans for Xmas which usually would include drink and I keep saying “but hopefully I’ll be pregnant anyway!” 🙈 I have essentially started half starving myself this week in the hope of losing some weight! Lol 🙈x

Mw050389 · 26/09/2020 07:30

Anyone else feel like they’re having bloody deja vu... I’m really concerned about the reports of covid-19 in James cook... this Is what happened last time. I’ll be seriously devastated if the same thing happens again and I get cancelled halfway through again 😫

Hoping1 · 26/09/2020 09:00

I keep thinking this to and checking news. I spoken to another girl yesterday who rang as period start and she book in for Monday for bloods so it still happing. I so hope we all get ours this time xxxx

Hoping1 · 26/09/2020 12:18

@Racs83 just tagged to see if you want to join us lv xxxx

Racs83 · 26/09/2020 15:29

@Hoping1 hey thanks for adding me. Hi everyone. Hopefully exciting times ahead for us all. I am having my blood test on Monday morning then full steam ahead with any luck. We were stopped just days before starting the injections. So close! I feel the same as you all though and hope the second wave doesn't affect treatment again xxx

Mw050389 · 26/09/2020 16:27

Hey! Are you on long or short protocol @Racs83? X

Racs83 · 26/09/2020 16:47

@Mw050389 I am on long protocol. Egg collection is w/c 9th November. How about you? Xx

Mw050389 · 26/09/2020 16:51

Oh quite close to me! 26th of October is my egg collection, I start buserelin injections this Thursday x

Racs83 · 26/09/2020 17:05

Very close. Good luck starting on Thursday xxx

Hoping1 · 27/09/2020 10:34

@Nattx has your period showed yet lv xxxx

Nattx · 27/09/2020 16:59

Nope still nothing. I got a call on Friday asking if I can call in the pharmacy on Monday/Tuesday to pick up some tablets to force my period so probably go tomorrow and start taking them. My egg collection will be probably a week or 2 later than expected but aslong as I know what's happening and things are going the right way I'm fine about that 😊 x

Well I hope it comes soon for you love so you get started xxx

Racs83 · 28/09/2020 16:32

Hey all. Had my blood test this morning and just rang for results and to book next bit and they asked me to call tomorrow as she was with the doctor. Anyone else had this happen. They said results were fine. Just thought it was strange as this didn't happen last time Sadxxx

Hoping1 · 28/09/2020 18:01

Hi love no not happen to me before they havnt asked for bloods off me this time yet. I come on tonight early and we booked in to see them on the 20th of October so they can show us how to injected then injected around the 27th but with this being early that one might be xxxxx

Racs83 · 28/09/2020 18:39

Who knows then. I guess I'll find out when I ring them tomorrow. Xxx

Nattx · 28/09/2020 19:11

I had a call today to give them a ring on Friday to let them know if tablets work and my period shows up. Still just waiting on my period it's just my luck that this month of all months that my period goes awol 🤦‍♀️😂 x

Mw050389 · 28/09/2020 19:28

Oh I’m glad they’re still booking appointments... I didn’t have to do. Loods on the first day of my period this time either... apparently they only check amh every 2 year 🤷🏼‍♀️ Not sure how true that is... my appointment is Thursday I’m excited and nervous.. my first question will be do they think there’s a chance this round may get cancelled again due to covid... prepare for the worst hope for the best as they say lol x

Nattx · 28/09/2020 22:40

I've heard the only time they would cancel appointments and things is if the NHS got overwhelmed with Covid patients again. I'm in County Durham and although we are in a local lockdown of no two households to socialise etc my appointments are still going ahead and the local hospital are still giving out appointments too so hopefully hospital cases stay down!
