Omg 10th go?!?!?!?!?!?!

You deserve a medal, how do you do it?!

With injecting I'm on my 4th time injecting but hopefully 3 days away from 3rd egg collection.

It seems to be pot luck. Sometimes they hurt and bruise others no issues. I have quite a bloated painful tummy at the mo so plenty of fat to grab.

Some girls ice before, could be an idea?

I truly wish you all the luck in the world, you are a super star.

This is it for me, I can't do it againπŸ˜₯

Thank you miraclebeliever. 😊

It's something I've got use to ova the years ivf is all I've known for 20 years hence the 10th go. It's funny ppl tell me how strong I am but trust me I crumble everyday, they just don't see it. I'm hoping this is my time so I can start my next chapter in life.

I'll give the ice a try if it stops the brusing.

Good luck with your cycle hope you get a bfp

I'm along way from collection end of October for me

Thank you x

Strong is all I can say I pop in every now and then but to see that you are going for a 10th go is left me speechless.

Can I ask your age and why you have tried donor eggs? Are you self funding all of these try's and what have the doctors said.

Have you never had a Bfp?

There is so much to ask yet I admire you... I was 4. x failed fresh cycles private funded own eggs and 1 x donor eggs successful but lost at 17.5 weeks ☹️️.

About to embark on another round just waiting for donor to start her cycle.

I wish you all the luck in the world with this cycle

Hi tamtam1 I'm am strong but only because I've a good hubby who stands by through it all. I've funded 9 and got one go free.

I'm 40 years old

I've tried every new ivf treatment my clinic has offered at extra cost.

Idid get a bfp 2 years ago but ended in a missed miscarriage.

Donors are not an option for me I've tried to get my heads round it weve talked for years abt it but for some reason I can't accept it.

I wish you all the luck with your cycle and thank you 😊

10 wow. I found the injections ok at first as I had the kids size needles but when I ran out and they gave me slightly bigger ones I found it hard and kept bruising. I then had to use my legs coz I was struggling so much with my tummy, the small needles didn't hurt at all. I couldn't believe the difference. I've had one failed IVF and now need to find the money and strength to go through it again. I'm only 4 days after my BFN and go back work today. Scared I'm just going to crumble. Wish you all the luck in the world. X

I'm sorry to hear that, is it not to early to go back to work? I'm sure after what you've been through they will understand. Thank you and I wish you all the luck in the future. 😊

It is strange out of the 6 cycles I went through I had one cycle in particular that I really bruised up badly and I looked like I had done may rounds with Mike Tyson. I am sure I did not change my technique or anything.

I pinched a good inch of skin, flabby bits!!! before inserting. I also was advised to leave the needle in after dispensing all of the product for a good 10 seconds, remove the needle and press down with a medical wipe for a short time after removal of the needle.

I hope you see some improvements.

Good luck.
