So that's me home after EC this morning in at 845am home by midday so good going I thought. I was a bit anxious about the EC but it was totally fine & I was really relaxed. Fiancee did his sperm sample which was good & I got 19 eggs!! Yay!! Just the wait till tomorrow to see if they've taken x

Amazing, glad it all went well and you're feeling good. Fingers crossed those eggs get busy!

Only just at the beginning myself, injection number one completed this morning so it's good to hear your positive experiences a few weeks ahead!

Keep us updated :)

The injections get loads easier as you go along aswell which is good I'll know tomorrow what my little eggs have been doing overnight, just got a dull ache pain in my lower tummy but told to drink lots of water and rest for 2 days now- hope all goes well with your cycle keep us up to date xx

Sorry, quick question! Were you advised to use a hot water bottle to help follicle growth? I've seen it in a few places online but it's never been mentioned to me x

It was never mentioned to me by my clinic but I had read it so I used one every night for an hour or so after my injections (I did mine each night) and I also heard milk was good for follicle growth too and I love milk so I was drinking that throughout. I also started acupuncture around 3 months ago too. I don't know if any of this helped or not but it was worth a go I thought xx

Well done Laura! 19 eggs is an amazing number.

They say it's good to visualise them and send them positive thoughts to fertilise and develop.

Wishing you all the best lovely. Xx 😊
