Hi! Had my first menopur injection today!

Hi 👋 had my first menopur injection today it wasn’t too bad stung a little bit though can’t believe it’s happening! Xx

I just started a couple of days ago - it is really odd to finally be doing a cycle after so long! I sort of wish I was having some kind of side effects just to be sure something's happening in there. Congrats on starting and wishing you all the best x

[Hidden in reply to LCharlton]

Oh god yea I have been waiting soooo long for this I hope this will be our year for both of us! And thankyou! All the best to you as well! Xxx

Hi! I got my first injection of menopur today as well 🙌🏼🙌🏼

This is our second attempt at Icsi. They have upped my dose to 225.

Do you have bloods scheduled for Thursday and scan for Saturday? Xx

[Hidden in reply to L400ynd]

Are you on 225 menopur? This is my first attempt at ICSI. I don’t have bloods scheduled just a scan for Wednesday Then every 2 days. Xx my husband injected I was too scared to do it my self 🤣xx

[L400ynd in reply to Hidden]

Yeh 225 menopur. Are you private or nhs?

I had to inject myself. My husband can’t even look at me while I do it. 😂😂. He’s far too squeamish.

Good luck sweetie xxx

I’m self funded with the nhs hospital. What dose of menopur was you on the first attempt? Xxx and good luck to you as well! Xx

[L400ynd in reply to Hidden]

I was on 150 on my first attempt. They thought I was reacting well after my blood test but at my scan I only had 3 follicles. They gave me another 4 days stims but still only got 2 eggs and only one was mature enough for icsi.

Hoping for better luck this time. Hopefully it will be great for both of us. Xxx

I really really hope it works for us I think this time it will work for u since u upped the dose. Do u have other children? Or is it u trying for your first? Xxx

[L400ynd in reply to Hidden]

This would be our first. Been trying for nearly 5 years now. I’m 35 and hubby is 38.

My sister gives me hope. She was 39 when she had my niece. She was a FET on the second attempt and she is a gift from god.

Did you say this is for your second child? Xx

[Hidden in reply to L400ynd]

u are still young! Im 37 now still the clinic said im still young and there are people in there late 40s even 50! They got pregnant so we are still young hun. And yea trying for a sibling. My daughter was conceived naturally took 8 months only. And now nearly 3 years and nothing they have put us in the unexplained category which is annoying! Do you have any fertility issues? Xx

[L400ynd in reply to Hidden]

Hopefully that will stand you in good stead then. Fingers crossed.

My husband has a low sperm count. They told us we wouldn’t conceive naturally and icsi was our only hope. So hoping and praying. Xxx

[Hidden in reply to L400ynd]

I’m hoping so and you should get pregnant this round since u upped the dose. If low sperm count is only the issue then this time round it should work. you have to stay hopeful I was feeling so guilty for nearly 3 years to try and give my daughter a sibling but today I feel that has gone and feel in control and ready for what this journey brings have to keep walking forward and praying 🙏 and keeping hope 💫never ever go of track just keeping focused because we got this 👊🏻

I've just done my 2nd Meriofert injection today, 150iu. I'm really struggling mentally with all of this. I don't know how you girls do multiple cycles. Feel sick and a little bloated and twingy, I can't decide if its the injections already or just the fact I've eaten so much rubbish

[Hidden in reply to xxktlou02xx]

This is my first cycle so far so good but then again only had my first menopur injection 🤣

[Kiedy84]

Good luck🤞🤞🤞 it's quite emotional to start this journey I remember it so well. Now 40 weeks pregnant with our little fighter.

You can do this xx

[Hidden]

Good luck wishing you all the best and it’s a journey but you have to keep positive for your own self and it will all be worth it xxx this is our second round of IVF ICSI on such lower dosage but body seems to be responding well so in for scan tomorrow and egg collection on Wednesday eek! I think I feel more nervous second time round but you have such great support you can get through anything xx
