Yes dont let work get in the way of you and your partner and what your going through stacey 😊work will always be there u need time to relax me and my partner have been out for tea tonight and weve had a chat about this its hard work tryna juggle things about ive been lucky so far as appointments have landed on my days off and ive kinda winged it but this time im gonna need at least 2 weeks off work 🙈 were so used to putting people first in our job roles i think its hard to focus on ourselves 😓.... wishing you lots of luck keep me posted also ❤️ x

I’ve been very lucky that my boss has been supportive and has let me go in work around my appointments so far but she leaves for maternity leave next week so am worried the man coming in to replace her won’t be so understanding 😩 I am going to either go to the doctors and get a sick note or take a few weeks off unpaid.

You are right tho it’s important to make time for yourself and time with your partner.

I will keep in contact with you and see how ur getting on ❤️ xx

I started gonalF on Tuesday. So far I’ve found that one not too bad but I think it’s because it’s a prefilled pen. I start the cetrorelix tomorrow and I’m more nervous about that because u have to make it up! So far I’ve been quite lucky as I’ve had no side effects but thinking it’s early days!! All the best for doing yours, the first time yourself is the worst once that ones past it gets easier! Xx
