I've been for my last scan today & they have confirmed EC for Monday, they require 3 follicules for EC above 18 which I have, possibility the others will grow between now & Monday as yesterday I had measurements of 20,18,15,13,11,10

Today I have 3 over 18 & 1 more has grown also my folicule measuring 15 must have grown to over 18 in 24 hours so meets the criteria......so hopefully my others grow between now & Monday , I've been told to do my menopur injection early today & trigger shot at 11pm. Hopefully early menopur today & trigger shot gives them a boost, ready for Monday πŸ˜€Xx

Thank you, I'm hoping my smaller ones catch up by Monday, did you get a calls 24 hours after egg collection? Fingers crossed my follicules grow in the next 48 hours to give a better chance at collection xx

Yeah they phoned this morning to tell me about how many they fertilised and how many are developing! Said they would phone back on Monday with further updates on their progress so fingers crossed they do good Iver weekend fir potential transfer on Wednesday xxx

Sounds like your going for 5 day transfer, fingers crossed for you. I think it's going to be nerve racking between EC & that first call. Xx

β€’ in reply toGemz29

Yeah hopefully they did at appointment yesterday chance if 3 day transfer but will find that out on Monday, think it just depends how well they develop and how many survive the developing stage! It is nerve racking but try to relax and get plenty rest xxx

Leo2017β€’ in reply toGemz29

πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜‚ no Gonal F & cetrotide!!

You feeling ready for EC? πŸ€I'm pretty anxious but tryn to take 1 day at a time...so face Mon's scan first and then think about Wed! 😳xx

Oh ok just wondered as they upped my menopur to double which I think helped. Yes & no I was hoping for more follicules but it's quality over quantity so fingers crossed xx

Leo2017 profile image
Leo2017β€’ in reply toGemz29

I'm already on highest Gonal F due to my age (39) & slightly elevated FSH! 😳

Absolutely as everyone keeps saying, quality over quantity now!! Will be keeping everything crossed for you for successful EC on Mon!! πŸ€xx

Leo2017β€’ in reply toGemz29

Thank you!! Went ok, going in right direction but slowly!! 9 follicles, only 7 a decent size: 1 at 20, 5 at 15 and 1 at 13!! Leaving me 2 more days on Stims, so scan on Wed again and EC Fri!! I can't help but feel all this stim can't be good!! 😏

How did you get on today?! Hope all went well? 😊xx

Try to trust there judgement, I know it's hard but hopefully they know best. I had EC this morning, they managed to collect 3 I was hoping my others would have grown but sadly not, however 1 was 21 in size on Saturday therefore I think they needed to collect today as this would have put the larger follicules at risk if I'd waited any longer. Currently waiting for the call tomorrow with an update x

Totally trying to trust them & the med's as they say, so tough tho!!

Try and stay positive as we said quality over quantity and they could be 3 golden eggs!! 😊 Wishing you best of luck for tomorrow!! x
