Second round stims start on Wednesday.

So, my baseline is on Wednesday for my second cycle of short protocol. Stims expected to start wed night and I'm flying to Ibiza with my drugs for the first 5 days for some relaxation 😊

This time nothing is being changed (my clinic only uses merional) and I was already on max dose. But this time round I bought Micronized dhea from the US so we shall see! Last time I just had standard dhea. I'm happy to be guinea pig for anyone else considering trying it!

Is anyone else starting stims this week?

Hiya

If AF plays ball I should be starting my injections on Thursday so will be a day behind you.

I'm on the short protocol too. On 150ml merinol.

It's my 1st time so nerves and doubts are starting to kick in.

I don't have to have a scan on day 1 just day 7. I suppose all clinics are different tho

Good luck and lots of baby dust xxx

Don't worry about it all all! We were all prepped and planned for my hubby to do all my injections but I decided to try the first one and it was really easy, now I'm not sure if I could let anyone else do them! I'd recommend getting a little gel bruise soother that can be both warmed and cooled - warmed for after stims and chilled for after cetrotide. I didn't get any bruises at all but it just soothed the area after. I'm on 450 units so 6 vials per day. Good luck!! 😘😘
