Scan today...

Hi lovelies!

Sooo we battled the snow which turned out to be fine and had our first monitoring scan today since starting meds a month ago. You have to laugh... at the end the nurse, trying to be kind, ripped off a bit of the paper bedding for me to "wipe myself" of the lubricant following the scan which i had to do behind a curtain whilst the consultant and nurse were still in the room. Who knew a tissue wiping could be so loud ๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿคฃ

On another note consultant said it was looking good in there and i have 4/5 follicles on each side. I have another scan in a few days. No changes to meds. Im am taking this and his comment as positive?! Xx

Thatโ€™s an excellent start, well done you! Your trek through the snow was well worth it to get that news ๐Ÿ˜Š Delighted for you.

Loving your tissue/wiping experience. Been there, done that. So funny because itโ€™s true xx

Thank you Dunla!! I think that sounds good 4/5 but this is all new to me so really mostly basing that on his reaction lol.

Haha. At start my hubby was in the room. Sooo glad i opted for him to leave. There is no need for him to see any of that including the long poking device having lube applied ๐Ÿ™ˆ. Any little romance left after 15 years would have been killed then and there ๐Ÿคฃ im only joking but you have to laugh sometimes to make the experience easier ๐Ÿ‘ xx

4/5 on each side sounds great ๐Ÿ™‚ well done!

Oh the tissue ๐Ÿ™ˆ I always felt awkward after like I didnโ€™t know where to put the tissue ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ bin was always behind curtain and Iโ€™d be thinking do I hand it to them or put it in myself or hide it in my bag lol! Xxx

๐Ÿคฃ oh its just hideous isnt it lol.

They also said u can get up now and get changed but they were both still in the room at the computer so i had to try and slide of the bed whilst simultaneously wrapping the sheet round me like a burrito to avoid having to choose between a front or behind grand reveal lol.

Im sure the doctors and nurses are used to seeing all sorts of mishaps xx

This made me laugh about the bin ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ I get baby wipes at the clinic Iโ€™m at, Iโ€™ve now become a bit of a ninja at opening the packet of wipes and the pedal bin silently

Awww bless you, so glad the scan went well and you have great news ๐Ÿค—. Youโ€™ve made me laugh with the tissue part as you have with everyone else. I remember having 1 scan with one nurse pressing down on my left side and the other with the scan thingy between my legs because my left ovary is high and they couldnโ€™t find it. I then said at the moment of madness โ€˜your lucky I donโ€™t have wind or youโ€™d be in my pathway if I fluffed right now with all this pressure!!โ€™ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ lucky they had a good sense of humour!! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ xx
