Sammy2009 - Well how are you feeling now, is the away yet?

Wrightywales - Hey hun, not long to wait now. Fx for you

MaryB - I am soo sorry to hear that. You need to hang on in there, I wouldn't go to the miscarraige threads as you may spook yourself out. You need to stay positibe, PMA PMA PMA

Mrs G - Listened to the song - your a sappy git...but I like it. Ha, I'll now need to go and google the song I'll play to my embies...maybe my first dance!!!

Brambletess - Dont write him off just yet. He may just be stressed by the whole infertility thing (even though he'll not want to show it) and maybe thats why you are having some problems. I'm quite sure once all the stress ot TTC is away and you have your wee baby it'll all be fine

Hi, yes i did wonder if it stopped AF and it did! I feel stressed...

A problem.... They have told us to start Puregon on day 3.... Which Pûregon? We have 3 x boxes of Puregon 300 IE/0,36ml and 1 x box of Puregon 900 UI/1,08ml... we have to take 150ml of one of these and they both fit in the Puregon pen. I have had to take one of them or i wont be able to take my meds so its 50/50 if i have got the right one. I could cry.... they never told us there would be two kinds and now the hospital has closed until tomorrow (well closed for questions about this as they only open 2 hours a day for questions - the idiots!)

Sammy, Well, that's confusing! I checked with my engineer DH (yay!) and it looks like the volumes are equal: three 300 boxes add up to one 900 (as you probably saw) and so **unless you can tell the concentrations are different** seems you can take 150 from one of the 300 or from the 900, either one.

And the reference to 36 and 108 (3 x 36) may be the measure of what's actually in the vials but stated in different units from what you are measuring the shot with, meaning there may be more in the 300 vial than your total 2 x 15 (actually, 150 unit) doses. That's the way it was with Follistim.

**I'm no nurse though*** if you can reach one, all the better...but this is your first day so there shouldn't be a danger of overstimulating if the measure ends up being wrong, just tell your doctor what you did.

Hi Mary... thanks so much for putting such an effort to try and work it out for us.... Allan thought the same. We were going stir crazy trying to work it out. I blame the hospital for being informative. Allan blames himself as it was explained to him in Dutch and I dont understand the language! I think we took the right one. We took the lower dose. We will check with the hospital tomorrow just so we know we are right but i think you are correct in what you are saying. Thanks again for looking into that for us you are very kind.How are things with you? Really well I hope...

Sammy - How frustrating, you poor thing! I am sure that you took the right one.

Mrs G- I would say no to having regs when pregnant, or the chance of being pregnant. I think you need to be avoiding ovulation at the moment - but that's just based on the advice I got from my FS.

Im back!!!! We found it!!

So baby is in uterus... we saw gestational sac and yolk.. thats all we can see at this stage.....

FS said she is so happy cause she was also worried that we did not see anything on monday and she thought it may be somewhere else.. but she is happy it is there!!


So there is 1 baby!!

I have a pic but my camera died.. so will recharge it and post a pic later.. not that u can see anything lol..

so i have my next scan in 2 weeks when we should see heartbeat... now FS said we just have to watch out for a missed miscarriage and if i can get through next weeks she is confident we will deliver baby.. so please baby stay...... i am not going to worry anymore.. now its time to enjoy this pregnancy... she said all looks fine and she is happy.. i guess if she was not she would do more bloods but she is not doing anymore so i guess now we have to wait another 2 weeks..

Oh yes.. so my mom sounded disappointed that it is not twins.. she said u could have got it over and done with

so all in all excited

thanks for your support girls.. these bloody doctors freaking us out!

Fantastic, Tanya!!!

Sammy, Dutch! Navigating IVF terminology and decisions was tricky enough, I couldn't imagine doing it in a foreign language. lol

Cupcake Queen, Waiting can be the worst. Sounds like you are almost there though.

Fantastic news Tanya! Can't wait for your pic.

Sammy, I'm glad you got your meds straightened out.

Cupcake, what will they be testing for at the geneticist appt? BTW your kitty is adorable!

Brambletess - I hope your talk with your DH went well. I'm sure he will come around.
