Scared of the pain again, even more so of the outcome. I know, it might be ok. But I'm still scared as hell. Eventhough had no more drugs I'm feeling more emotional than ever and huge 😢

It seriously is not as bad as you think it's going to be! I had never been so scared. If I am totally honest I can't even remember my procedure due to the sedative but my husband says I was awake and talking throughout! And as far as the outcome goes I was devastated they only got 5 eggs, 3 matured and only 1 was good enough for transfer on day 3! However, I will be giving birth to our little boy within the next 3 weeks! Keep going on your journey stay strong and have hope xxxx

Not my first time hun. Still trying to be positive, but last time wasn't good at all. Sat in the waiting room and people coming out crying in pain, I remember it well. I've not been allowed as much stims this time as two follicle gotten too big to wait, so we'll be lucky to get 5 so I'm told which is hard considering we got 13 last time with only two good enough by day 3. Lost first early days, then our daughter at 4 months, so a lot more nerves this time. Good luck for a healthy birth, take lots of care xx

It is definitely not as bad as you think! You are knocked out so won't feel a thing. I had mine done yesterday and was so nervous but it is an ok procedure and you won't even remember it! Rest up tonnes after and don't be alarmed if you are bloated. Today I can barely get my clothes on, my tummy is massive :( drink tonnes of liquid! Good luck xxx

Oh bless you, I know what you mean as this isn't our first time. I had a awful amount of pain, but certain painkillers are a no no for me, so it's tricky. Hope your swelling subsides soon xx

Didn't go well. Only 1 egg from 15 follicles. I'm devastated

Of hon you must be so disappointed. I'm not going to tell you the " you only need one " line as you aren't new to this and it doesn't help.

I wish you loads and loads of luck, that your little egg is a winner, and as there was only one that it got all the goodness to make it a fighter and a sticker when you come to implant.

Loads of hugs xx
