Trying for a 2017 Baby

Hello Hello Hello Ladies

Hope that you all had wonderfully restful weekends?
Thank you to everyone who responded to my previous post, even when no one but Jooste could really advise, it was simply so nice to be in your thoughts

So yes, I went for my scan yesterday morning with a very heavy heart because I honestly didn't know what to expect. On CD11, as I mentioned one was 13 and the larger was at 14... I was then given the Fostimon 75IU injections to take for 2 evenings and then went for the follow up scan, yesterday (Sunday morning). And now my follicles are sitting at 14.8 & 16.4. My FS was very happy with this, and basically explained to me, that we simply carry on with the Fostimon for 2 more days (last night and then tonight again) and then my follicles will be the correct sizes. Then on Tuesday evening at 8pm, I do the Ovidrel injection and I am now booked for my IUI on Thursday morning!
So I must admit I feel VERY relieved to finally have some answers and to better understand what is going on and mostly that everything is still sort of on track and this month isn't getting written off!!

Hope that everyone has a wonderful Monday

Bless you all xxx

Afternoon Ladies!

Happy to say that we have 8 good size follicles!!! Got more injections until Thursday when i see the FS again. Egg retrieval would most probably be on Saturday.

Feeling good after the news as i was worried that there wouldn't be a good count.

@ Jay-bee sorry AF showed. Good luck for the next cycle!

@ Angel good luck with you app today!! Update us!

@ Tryphie, the hardest thing is when you don't want to think about ttc it always seems to pop into your head

@ Lisa, good luck for tomorrow

@ Chanti, wishing all the best for you. It might be daunting but in a way enjoy each step as it is bringing everything closer for your BFP

@ Anzel, how are you?

@ Angel, thanks going to look at Dischem

Afm, yip AF showed up so I am now on CD2. Not so worried as going to try on our own for a few months till we visit the Gynae.

Hey ladies!

@liza - You are doing so well hun! It feels like time is going by so quickly now that you have started! Please update as soon as u have been to the doc tomorrow xx

@stilletomum - I'm sorry about AF arriving It never gets easier!

@Tryphie - That's not good that you are so stressed out, it is so bad for TTC! You need to try catch your breath and do some things to keep you calm and relaxed. Let us know how the doc app goes and if you O'd

@Angel - Thinking of you hun and hoping you have nice plump eggies!

@Nicola - Thinking of you hun!!! Everything will go well and you will soon be back on the TTC wagon Praying for you xx

@Jay - How are you doing hun? Did AF show her face?

@Sammy - I am sorry I can't help much hun, still learning as I go. Did you see the gynae today? What did he say?

AFM, 3 sleeps left!!! Still keeping myself busy and distracted and not allowing my mind to think of the negative. Excited and scared to get started. Time to open this new chapter in my book

Afternoon my Internet Sister!

Thank heavens its Friday!

So i'm halfway through the ïnjection" phase. Starting tomorrow i will be injecting 3 x daily. Started with the Cetrocide yesterday morning and that one burns like a Bitch!

Last injection will be Monday morning and then i'll also be seeing the FS@ 6:30 to see how the follicles are doing. Very excited to get the POA for the week!

Other than the odd headache now and then and slight bloating/swelling i feel fine. I'd rather not comment on my emotional state!!

Have a fabulous weekend! May God Bless us all with LO in 2017!
