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? 🤷‍♀️

@Hoping1 will do. That rings a bell with me too. I think between period and ec no sex as you could end up with multiple births from memory xxx

Nattx · 25/10/2020 12:38

Nattx · 25/10/2020 21:21

Oh Monday's are the worst for bloods and scans with having blood and scan times at completely different times of the day! I have to arrive at 8.15 but giving ourselves a bit extra time travelling incase of any traffic so yeah maybe we will see each other, well you seeing me absolutely bricking what is going to happen next 😂 xx

Thanks @Hoping1. How are you getting on? When do you start your injections? Xx

Mw050389 · 26/10/2020 16:11

😅 no but I had a throbbing pain in me right ovary which overtook everything... more an uncomfortable feeling there but I’m getting used to them now 😂 but I was constipated and bloated for days! Yes I had a phone call from the embryologist this morning... all embryos developing nicely, 2 absolutely perfect others still doing well but some fragmentation but only small amounts so all good ☺️ phoning again between 9 and 10 in the morning and all being just as good book me in for transfer on Wednesday! No partners allowed in for that but she said to ask the embryologist who does the transfer to take photos and ask for the time lapse video so my partner can see x

Nattx · 26/10/2020 16:27

@Mw050389 omg I was basically lifting off the seat on the way home with shooting pains 😂 tbh he wasn't the most gentle person shoving them in like hahaha god. If just woken up from a couple hours sleep I don't feel as uncomfortable as I did earlier which I'm glad, not looking forward to those pessaries xx

OP posts:
Mw050389 · 26/10/2020 16:42

Well I was out for the count so I didn’t even realise anything was there till I felt it melting in the room 😂😅😅... the glamour! X

Nattx · 26/10/2020 17:39

I've done my 2nd progesterone one myself not long ago and was completely fine so I'm blaming him for being so bloody rough, didn't even prewarn me either 😂 I'm so glad it's over and done with and I'm so glad that you're eggs are growing nicely! Finally they mentioned the blue milk and they said I start drinking that after transfer for a week, they said if you struggle to drink it you can mix it with milkshake powder or something similar xx
