Hey all for all that have followed my story from last year im updating you on my process. After having egg collection last year in September i had 20 eggs collected but then suffered OHSS so after a few months of getting my body back to normal with periods and stuff i started my injections on 1st Jan and now on day 19, ahh i so remember how much i hated them lol . i Have my 1st scan on thu 21st jan to see if lining thin enough to start the next stage. Not sure about what will happen after or how the the time scale will be before they can thaw our little embies, but i think it will be the 1st week in feb so not long now to wait. I had a practice of the small catheter going though my cervix as a few years a go i had the lap and dye test and OMG the pain was horrendous something that should of took 20 mins to do took 2 hours i almost passed out with the pain i dont think the woman new what she was doing as she couldn't get it in so she was taking it out then in then out :( anyway i had a practice one just before xmas and the doc was brilliant no pain at all and was over within 5 mins, so now im looking forward to that stage as originally i was dreading it. We are so keeping our fingers crossed that it works as we are going to keep it a secrit till mothers day if we are and surprise mother in law with a 'I Love Nanny' baby grow as it will be her 1st grandchild :) xx

Hi mrsgoodby2015. You certainly had a rough ride at the start of all this last year with OHSS and painful egg collection! Still, you’re well on the way to having ET, so hope your scan goes well for tomorrow. After that it will take 7-10 days to build your lining up for transfer. ET should be straight forward, so good luck – will be thinking of you for tomorrow. Diane

Great, all systems go! 👍🏼 I'm on my 3rd day of progynova- but only 3 per day. Suppose that might change after the scan next week if they don't think lining is thick enough x

I've felt fine with them but I'm only taking 3 per day- morning, afternoon and evening. I guess with 6 you might feel different x
