May IVF

Mrs T · Apr 26th, 2009, 12:47 PM

I've spoke to some of you about starting IVF or like me trying again, am sure there was a few of us starting in May.
Just thought it would be good for us to get together in one thread so we can help each other through the next month with all the highs

and lows

and install some PMA

. Think it would be great to chat about how everyone is preparing themselves for their cycle etc.
So sign up girls.........

Starting down reg drugs on 9th May. I don't feel stressed about it but I will be honest, I am having panic attacks. Literal, God awful panic attacks about LETTERS at work, about the fact that I did not save something in Times New Roman, about the fact that left my computer switched on, about the fact that I did not do 30 minutes on the Wii Fit last night.

How is it that I am not in the slightest bit stressed out about IVF yet I am having panic attacks about work?

Mrs T · Apr 26th, 2009, 13:02 PM

am no expert but I'd say the stressing at work its probably coming from worrying about next months IVF...even though your not worried!

The though of failed IVF? I feel nothing. The thought of a letter I sent on Friday being wrong, despite the fact that our managing director was the one that told me to send it? Actually had me awake at 4am shaking, having hot sweats and barely able to breathe. This entire weekend has been spent worrying about nothing problems at work...but, feeling fine about IVF. My brain is clearly wrong.

When do you start down reg?

Hi there

I've been on some tablets for the last 6 weeks to try & improve my egg quality & started my stimming injections 4 days ago...got a scan tomorrow to see how the follicles are going so fingers crossed. This is my 4th IVF, was successful on the 1st, but unfortunately mmc, (my 2nd). So, think I may be ahead of you, but would be great to keep in contact!

Hi Jayne
Good luck with the scan today, keep us posted.
My problem was egg quality too, what tablets are you taking to improve things?? Did you down regulate or just stimulating?

Wow this is your 4th time, you must be an IVF expert by now. Am expecting to start my folical stimulation drugs around the 12th May, depending on the

hello Wrightywales

of course your welcome here, I think it helps to know we're not alone in this. Am sure we can help each other get through the ivf and share some tips that will increase our chances of getting that long awaited

Sounds like your managing your stress, its only natural to be worried. Have you thought about trying accupuncture? I did last month and loved it, obviuosly it didnt help me get pregnant but it did a lot towards helping me relax. I always slept like a baby the night following treatment. I also listened to a relaxation/visualisation cd everyday.... must start doing that again!!
