Egg collection done this morning- 25 eggs collected vs 15 the last time so hoping for some good fertilisation & quality embryos- Im at higher risk of OHSS so they are keeping an eye on me for the next few days & hopefully we will get a 5 day transfer Tuesday 🙏️xx

Nope nothing the only difference was I started on higher dose drugs, I didn't actually think I would have as many as last time cause I haven't felt as bloated etc this time round xx

In my first round I had the 15 then 7 fertilised so Im hoping at least around half of these fertilise to good quality xx

25 brilliant number! I had 29 collected and was so worried about ohss. I drank so much water and sports drinks and lots of protein (protein bars and shakes). Not sure if the protein really helps but I read up on it. I was fine and had a 5 day transfer. All the best x

That's good, you'll need that rest for your ovaries to heal after so many eggs were collected yesterday. They called us relatively early so hopefully not too long before you find out xx

That's really amazing congrats on the eggs! Can I ask what dose of stimms were you on? I've been put on a higher dose this time, 325 iu of gonal f. I have egg collection on Monday so hoping to get some more this time! (13 last time) xxx

Laura3101 profile image
Laura3101 in reply toBeckyboo1985

I was on merional 225 this time and last time it was 150 so 75 more this time, the rest has been the same although as Im at higher risk of ohss now with so many eggs collected I have an additional blood thinning injection to take aswell.
