Yes good luck Mrs S. The injections can't be pleasant but it must be so exciting knowing you are so close now. Good Luck Honey x

Well done, they aren't too bad are they? I think it's more the thought of sticking something sharp in yourself intentionally!
Keep us updated with your progress.

feeling a bit low today but all good, JCB did you do anything to help them grow so to speak i have heard about hot water bottles?

Hi mrssmith,
I obviously avoided alcohol and caffeine, and stopped going to my usual gym classes. What drug are you on? I was on the short protocol so was lucky only to have to inject for 8 days including the trigger.
Otherwise, I just left things to fate. You should drink plenty of water too. Syptom-wise, I got increased cm, headaches and towards the end, discomfort and bloating in the lower abdomen.
Unfortunately, everyone responds differently but as they scan you frequently, your docs will be able to adjust your doses as required. I think they were a bit worried at one stage that I might over-stimulate but I didn't. Out of 20 follicles at the last count, they only collected 8 eggs, which I was surprised about.
Let us know how you get on, and thinking about you.

Good luck Mrs S
I think the first injection is the worst - as said its just the idea of stabbing yourself that is so alien
fingers crossed for you

Hi mrssmith,
Know what you mean about the bloating-it can get quite sore. I remember it being quite sore even walking as egg collection day drew nearer!
Really have got everything crossed for you. It's so hard though to stay positive, isn't it? You will have good and bad days.
I have my 7 week scan on Friday-so scared as I miscarried at 7 weeks exactly, in December. My husband and I have hardly had an unbroken night's sleep for the past month!
Good luck.
