Part results

Out of however many follicles, we got 8 eggs
Out of those 8 eggs, 6 were suitable to fertilise
Out of those 6 they tried to fertilitse, 4 of those did fertilise

Tomorrow at 1pm we go in for transfer, and a discussion on the quality of the embryos. Looks unlikely we'll be able to freeze any, which is a shame. Next go after this will cost £4000, mainly because of the drugs. If we simply had only embryos to implant, it would only cost £900.

Feeling nauseous and sore and very out of it. Thid morning they got 8eggs, which is cool. Now just hoping to god they'll fertilitise. In an ideal world 8 would, but chance of that are rare. 2 to implant and at least 2 to freeze, would be a good thing. Any more is a bonus. Find out tomorrow hopefully before12pm.]

*crosses fingers*

Last night I took a shot of Pregnyl at 11pm, which pretty much 'ripens' the eggs up before collection. Bloody nerve-wracking! Don't shake, don't spill, don't fuck it up! Managed to inject everything OK, which was something! :)

Today I had a day off from the injections which was nice, especially as my injecting patch is very sore!

Tonight I take a tablet of Lorazepam, which is a sedative. Tomorrow morning nothing to eat or drink, and take the other tablet at 8am. Have to be in the unit for 1030am, and then egg collection after that. We should find out how many eggs we have whilst we're there. We wont find out if any of them have fertilised until the Thursday.

Went for an internal scan on Thursday. They can see 10 follicles, but not as developed as they should be.. she talked about calling off treatment and restarting me in a month or more, on a higher dose.

Find out Sunday at 9.30am, when i have my next scan.

IoN, I am in much pain, and am hugely bloated - I am the human version of a flump. It's not much fun :'(

Ouch. Apart from the ever bloating me, I know the drugs are working because my right ovary hurts. Sharp stabby pain. I'm not about to go rushing in panicking, because I have a scan tomorrow. But in contrast it makes me feel like there's absolutely nothing on my right side. Which is weird and unsettling.

Went to the hospital at 10.45am. The weight I'm carrying is very noticeable - I'm now carrying a body that resembles silly putty - you can pull and push and everything is squishy. I find it quite revolting tbh, but cracked a joke or two with the nurse about it today. Hoping it'll go when the drugs stop, else I shall be very unhappy :/

Now on injections instead of nasal spray. I did my first tonight - fine, but itches now. Least I'm getting the drugs anyway :)

Hayfever

Really struggled this weekend with hayfever and taking nasal spray, hence haven't been out today. Spoke to the RMU about it and have to go in tomorrow mornings and start taking the nasal spray as an injection instead :/
