0mph - 60mph overnight...

It's funny... Because I look back over my posts and I'm reminded about how I never thought anything would start; how no one would ever understand me; how every obstacle possible felt like it was in my way.

Then, from calling hospital on Monday to discuss starting and inform them of last cycle (which appears to have been completely non-existent!) I end the week having had an appointment, set a date for first drug taking for forcing bleed, drugs for injections ordered and drug delivery date and timeframe confirmed with company this afternoon!

Now I find myself thinking.., wow! How fast?!

TwistedWillow gave me some great advice today... Advice I already knew... But advice I needed to hear again: take each stage a step at the time. Treating it one stage and hurdle to overcome before the next. It sort of helped me not to panic about whether the injections would work because I haven't got there myself.

In the meantime, I keep wishing to my moon gazing hare, telling my ovaries to pull themselves together and get ready to take this drug hoping it does make me bleed.

I know what you mean we waited ages to get the OK for IVF, then all of a sudden everything at once and have just finished my first week of injections! Good luck xx

Yeah not too bad so far thanks! I am a massive needle phobe... But getting into the routine of the injections now. Side effects so far have just been aching legs and a bit of a bruise with one of the injections we've done and that's it. Started down reg injections on 3rd June and have the base scan on 21st June, so if all ok then start stims. EC due 4th July if all progresses well. It seemed like so many years to start IVF and now actually on the cycle feel quite relaxed about it. X
