Hey you! I'm guessing similar to you, the pill...prostap....then progynova which is adjusted as necessary! Good luck toots, so excited to hear how you get on!!xxxx

[Patty74 in reply to Cinderella5]

Yes start progynova tomorrow so it's getting real now!! When for my scan today and good to start 😀😀 2 weeks and I will be on my way to Athens. Fingers crossed for us both. (I'm 44 next so I really hoping this is the last time) xx

[Cinderella5 in reply to Patty74]

Wow, I'm super excited for you both! It's crazy how quick it all goes once you get going! Hope you've been feeling ok on the meds. Would love to know you you are getting on & where you're staying....such a massive city!! Best of luck, keep me posted!!xxxx

I am just going to book it today 30 per cent off easyjet flights at moment. I think we are going for an airb&b apartment on the coast as they as so cheap and it's flexible will let you xxx good luck

[Cinderella5 in reply to Patty74]

Yeah that's what we did first time around! Best of luck too!!xx

Meant to say, this is a little webcam on the coast of the city. Will give you a little look....weather looks lovely though don't suppose it'll be that hot at this time of year, around 15 degrees but way better than here.xx

yes progynova is the best option ! I believe it is also important to get a letter from the consultant when you are carrying medications in your luggage. Also is it true although not proven yet it could be argued that the lower levels of oxygen in the cabin could affect implantation?

[Patty74 in reply to jesssiep]

Never thought of the medication side thanks plus hopefully we will be in Athens a week so plenty of relaxation before we fly home xxx

The rounds before in UK but first time there worked.. Wishing you all the best.. Will keep look out.. Cinderella when you out there again? Let's hope it's a happy new year for you both 🎉 xxxx

[Patty74 in reply to Jaky76]

Thank you Jacky I'm super excited too and I booked this after hearing about your and a few other ladies experiences. Wonderful news on your baby boy!!!! Best Christmas present ever!! Xxx

I'm back 24th Jan but just for tests this time. They want to do cervical dilation, hysteroscopy, biopsies and bloods for immunes etc. Being very thorough!! I think after having such wonderful embryos without a sniff of a bfp they're starting to wonder if there is something else underlying!! Glad to hear you're doing well Jaky76

[Jaky76 in reply to Cinderella5]

Ooooo not long to wait... So glad they being thorough cinderella... Like the fact that they look beyond just putting embryos in and hoping for the best... Hope trip goes well... Be here waiting to see,.. Lots of love Jackie xxx

[Cinderella5 in reply to Jaky76]

Yeah they're really good and I know I'm getting well looked after. Kind of hoping they find something to fix so we cab crack on with another transfer! Will keep you guys updated.xx

Hi Jaky76 can I ask was this serum in Athens? Did you use own eggs or donor please? Could you recommend your experience there? Are they affiliated with a up clinic? Any advice please as I’m just about to embark on my research to doDE in uk or abroad and feeling a bit overwhelmed! X

[Jaky76]

Ah so glad you super excited.. I felt that way too.. But didn't in my UK clinic... When my Bertie was born I emailed Ruth from ivf abroad. She so happy for me and said that the clinic in last year has had such a baby boom and success rate high... They genuinely take such care of what they doing... Wishing you all the best, will be looking forward to seeing how you get on..

Yes I had the best Christmas present ever and know how very lucky I am. He really is such a wonderful baby xxxx

Feeling a bit concerned donor due to start her period on 4th it's now 7th and I've heard nothing I've been messaging Ruth everyday but today she hasn't replied worried now about our donor. Xxx
