[ShareLove]

Hi just wondering where you inject yours thanks

Here it is! Little bean

Oh thats amazing . I bet you are so happy.

Fingers crossed that will be us all soon .

Waiting for the clinic to call me hopefully today . O don't know why I'm getting excited . I know ots going to be weeks away .

@ngy21 omg that picture is amaizng !!! Soooo cute wow !!!! 😍😍😍😍😍
And thank you ! I will ring my clinic on Wednesday for updates and see where I go From then and see when my next cycle will be / I hope in January 😊 I’m really hoping they do new egg collection as I don’t trust my 2 Frosties on ice and the other 3 what we use weren’t good quality . I went a fresh trasfer haha 😚 love to you both !
@Justawannabemam good luck for your phone call ! What was the phone call about !? Your next cycle !? Sorry I forgot , I haven’t been on here much because I was down about my result xxx

Hey .

So yeh they just chatted about my medication for next time. They are going to change my stims and trigger shot.

They expected it to be April but they've just rung now and we can start again on 3rd Jan . Whoopieeee. I'm going over to collects meds on 15th Dec. BMI checks eeekk and some swabs bawk! Massive diet for me this week. I've just had a weekend too so I'll have put a few lbs on.

Thank you both, hopefully will be you guys soon because i am impatiently waiting!

@Justawannabemam such good news!!! must be so wonderful to hear that your appointment has moved up so many months, start the new year with a bang!!!
So glad you stuck with NHS and didnt go private!!!

@ShareLove hope you are feeling better and more optimistic for next round, as they say it can be trial and error and perhaps if you do another EC they will change up your dose as well!! Let's hope they can manage it well so you can do a fresh transfer as i know last time they found a little bit of fluid which is why it got postponed. hope your call goes well tomorrow and you can get some dates scheduled in for next steps!

@ngy21 I hope next time they reduce my dose haha not up it lol last time I got over stimulated . 😂 I hope that I give me lower medications so I make less eggs but better quality and I can have fresh trasfer because I won’t have OHSS then ,
I’m so jelous of you being already 13 weeks ! 🥲but ofcourse happy for you ! Nobody deserves infertility !
I bet you’ll give birth before I get pregnant haha !
@Justawannabemam wow you have all dates sorted ! So good knowing what to expect and you have plans in place ! I have uncertainty when I don’t know when is what . Hopefully soon I will know what I will do next 😇 wishing you both 1000000% luck ! I might join you in January cycle @Justawannabemam 😍

Aww thank you

They said they are going to increase the overleap stims to 450 which is maximum . I just don't want them to over do it . If ya know what I mean . I was on 300 then 375 last time. Going straight in at 450 there's no room for improvement then . And like u say a few of better quality are better than lots of crap ones .x

Hopefully you get a start date soon. And we can all be together .x.

@Justawannabemam wow 450 of ovaleap I was on 150 and I overstimulated and got 17 eggs 🤣 I hope they reduce it to 100 next time so I don’t over stimulate

@ShareLove I know . I only had 4 before trigger then 6 at egg retrieval. But only the 4 were mature enough . . I'll mention it .

@ngy21 I start my next cycle after Christmas in January when my next period starts ! I got my withdrawal bleed 3 days ago after failed cycle . So when I get my next period after like 28 days then I ring the clinic and probably start taking tablets from day 21 of the next cycle . So if I do same protocol then it looks like I’ll have trasfer in March as protocol is 8-9 weeks long . I have consultation January 12th to discuss what went wrong etc , personally I want a new egg collection but they said because it’s funded I have to use all frozen ones first , I have 2 left ? But I am worried they will be bad quality as my other 3 were bad quality as you both remember . So I’m begging my consultant if I can have fresh trasfer instead and new egg collection , because I don’t like the idea of hoping the 2 embryos I have will survive or be good quality from the same batch . Then it’s like another wasted cycle if the 2 other frozen embryos are also bad quality and I don’t want to rely on the 2 frozen ones . Most likely won’t survive or only partially survive like the others I had trasferred which didn’t work ofcourse . And I’m also asking if I pay for any other testing like immune or anything else to make my chances higher . Or even pay for new egg collection from my pocket . Hope you both doing well ? Oh this infertility is such a rollercoaster . I’m sorry I haven’t been on here much , I just have no motivation and just can’t be bothered . I’m a bad mood so I stay away from internet and ivf related stuff xxx

Aww it's hard hey

When I saw my consultant they said that 1 cycle was for every egg collection . So if you use what you have frozen is that another cycle . Maybe question it. Then you could have your 2 cycles left after that. Hopefully you won't need it.

I had a lovely chat yesterday with the nurse at my work. She told me straight away she had ivf . She ended up crying with me. But I felt loads better when I came out . Just nice to chat to someone in person.

I'm going over Wednesday to collect meds. Worrying a bit about my BMI but I'm trying to be good . If I was an inch taller I'd be okay 😂

Hey ladies! Sorry been a bit quiet, had a long weekend in wales with the country side and lots of sheeps as neighbours lol!!!

So glad you both have start dates!

@ShareLove so they are using same protocol for your FET? fingers crossed your frosties will be ok when thawed. But i understand where your concerns are and why you want a fresh new cycle. Did they take into consideration your previously thawed embryos? Will they be taking one out the freezer this time or both?? It'll be interesting to know where the hiccups were in the process!

@Justawannabemam happy meds collection day for tomorrow! Hopefully you can relax and enjoy xmas and new year before your next cycle!!

I have my 16 week antenatal appointment with the MW next week, a, get to hear the heartbeat with a doppler !

hope everyone is well!

@ngy21 thank you certainly having a chilled one well I'm doing dinner for 11 but the MIL can help with that !!

I hope your scan goes well. So exciting for you.

I really don't know how I feel about starting again. Esp when I know what can go wrong . But ive to be positive. I were being given this opportunity and we shall embrace it .x

@Justawannabemam thank you!

And yes now that you have gone through 1 cycle, it should help eliminate any errors made along the way to help improve chances of second cycle. The chances should only improve as you keep going through new cycles!!!

Fingers crossed this is the one!

Hey both

Just a little update from me.

Been today got my meds. Starting 3rd Jan. Hopefully egg collecting around 7th Feb. Seems so far away but I'm hoping it will fly in x

Hey ladies

Bit of advice needed please.

My partner has tested positive for covid !!
I'm dreading catching it. And I think I will I've got a sore throat. And then the girl who I worked with last night has tested positive as well.

What do you will happen about my treatment ? My first scan isn't until 25th Jan so I'm hoping I'll be over the isolation period but then before egg collection I ha e to have a covid test. Which I think could show up as they can for 90 days . So do you think they'll cancel. Or could I do lateral flows.? I'm so worried. X

Hey ladies!

Hope you had a good Xmas and new year.

@Justawannabemam oh no! Hopefully u guys will recover soon. I imagine by 25th you should hopefully be out of isolation and Covid out of system. It's hard to say nowadays. I had caught covid last year in Jan and was positive on 21st. But come 10 days later we tested again as we needed to go somewhere, and it was negative (both of us).

You may still have some sort of symptoms but covid hopefully should be out. Have you been for a test just to check?

If you were to be positive on your scan day I imagine your treatment will have to be postponed to the next available date

Let's hope not!

Hey

Yeh I got tested and I'm negative. So im sure keeping my distance from him !

I was just worried if I was positive. Then when I went for a PCR before egg collection it shows up even thou I will have done my isolation. If that makes sense.

I'm so paranoid. It's unreal. He said I'm a nightmare . I thought pffttt wait til I start on the overleap that's when I'm a real nightmare . Hahaha

And my mother in law rolls her eyes one more time because im Stressing . Lols

How was your Christmas.

@Justawannabemam completely understand! with the new variant being more transmissible you don't want to take any risks. Have you started your cycle now? And then scan is still on 25th?
How is your partner now? hopefully he is on the road to recovery!!!
How are you feeling btw this time round with meds?

@ShareLove hope you are doing well, still on track for consultation for the 12th to get cycle started?

Hope everyone had a good xmas and new year, not having to think about meds etc. Both starting this year with a bang!

@ngy21 hi

Yeh I started yesterday on the burselin, so far I've had 3 contacts and still testing negative. My partner is okay his out of isolation tomorrow his been locked away in the bedroom. So im hoping I've escaped it x. If the increasing numbers continue next week I'm going to ask if I can work from home . It's making me too stressed which I dont want .

How are you both feeling .? @ShareLove

@Justawannabemam i think you should really push to work from home for now! as im sure the gov does mention if u can work from home, you should!!

i am all good for now, also a bit on edge about covid. cause last year i caught it at peak, and im sure the peak was january! i have my scan as well which i dont want to miss. hoping my partner will be able to join!

how long are you on buserlin for? are you doing stims again this round and EC? just trying to figure out when your possible ET would be!

Yeh I will spk to my supervisor. I dont really have any work to do .but either he can create something or I ll go sick. Fortunately I have quite a good record and I dont think it could be used against me. I font want to isolate I just want to minimise the risk .

I have my scan 25th then start overleap after that. Egg collection scheduled for week commencing 7th Feb.
I don't seem as excited this time round.

Hey all you lovely ladies , I’m so sorry I haven’t been on mumsnet for weeks because I feel so down and fed up of always thinking about ivf and trying to get pregnant . I feels sooo fed up . Sometimes I feel like I want to give up ivf and forget about having a child ever .
My review will be on the January 12 about my failed cycle .
So I will see what happens after that phone call .
I will start norethisterone tablets in 21 days from now . My monthly cycle started today so I will ring clinic on Monday and they are closed over weekend . So far that’s it for me all I know is from today to my actual trasfer will be like 8-9 weeks . Because I will be down regulating too that’s why it’s so long 🥰 hope you all well and I’m again so sorry iv been ignorant , but I really haven’t wanted to be on mumsnet and read everyone’s pregnancy announcements because it’s makes me so sad

Hi @ShareLove aww it sounds like your having a rough time atm.
Keep ya chin up. Your gonna be starting again soon. It will be us announcing this year. X

I'm on day 5 of my down regs. I decided to do it at 6am so it didn't Interfere with work . But im on rest days now so I have to set my alarm to get up. 😩

How many cycles have you had ? I really don't feel as excited this time round . Maybe because last time we were on holiday down regulating and it flew in. We'll see what it brings .x

Don't let your self get down. We got this !! .x

@Justawannabemam hey , I’m glad you are down regulating already how exiting ! I will start down reguation in a few weeks time . Well I don’t have to do anything for down regulating as they will inject zoladex it’s like a little bullet under my skin , which lasts a month , thats the down reg for me and then soon after that I start my estrogen patches again for 4 weeks before trasfer .
I have had one frozen cycle and it failed as my embryos were very bad quality after thawing . But they trasferred it anyways . Now I have 2 left in freezer but most likely they will have same issue after thaw so I don’t have high hopes.
I just feel so weak and fed up !! I don’t know how much longer I can go through this . It’s like it’s on my mind 24/7 , it will never go away until I have a baby or get pregnant .
This weekend my friend is giving birth and next week I’ll be seeing the little one and I don’t know how I am going to cope with it .
Iv been trying for 10 years all together , well 4 years then I stopped for 3 years and then again 3 years now . With 5 pregnancy losses along the way . Do you understand why I feel the way i do ? this is my first ivf that failed , hoping for better results to next time .
All my friends and family are pregnant and I’m the only one left out . I am almost 30 years old and still not pregnant . Been trying since 20 years old . It’s a living nightmare . Sometimes I wish I could just disappear into thin air and not exist , (obviously just being sad about my situation ) so that I don’t have to go through this pain anymore .I just can’t get pregnant anymore or carry a pregnany , it’s like god is against me . I don’t know what I have to do .
