Hi Ginger
Wanted to let you know I've been thinking of you, but am crap with "supportive words" and *hugs* seems a bit trite. Ah well, I'll say it anyway *hugs* Hope things work out for you.
And Melly and others, good luck to you all as well. I feel bad complaining about my devil spawn when you ladies have so much trouble getting one of your own. All the best so you can join us in the moaning soon, lol.

And fattarts? Just because we're in the situation we're in doesn't mean we can't appreciate a devil spawn  I said to DH the other day that I am SURE that I have seen more children throw tantrums since starting IVF!!

yeah i did mean at 11am on Thursday - doh!
Not too keen on that trigger injection though, it was the most painful of the lot. DH had a few attempts at getting it to pierce the skin, then it finally went through - not the kind of problems you want at 11pm at night when there is no one around to help.....got a bit panicky but all ok.

Hmmm ... mine yesterday was fine (aside from the massive hormone surge!  ), but your problems would explain why the nurse had a death-grib on my stomach and threw it in there dart-style! I just looked at the ceiling while she was doing it (have taken to giving myself my injections with my eyes closed - seems to hurt less that way! ) so I didn't see if it was a much bigger needle or not. I'm guessing so though because the Buserelin needles are the finest gauge of needle you get.

I'm doing ok - we just kept the Buserelin going right through the trigger period. I think the plan was that the trigger would cause the follicles to ovulate and the Buserelin would, everything crossed, mean that there would be no chance for more follicles to grow. Whether it works remains to be seen - my next BT for down-reg is the 15th.
In the meantime, I feel completely horrible and I'm taking that as a good sign that the Buserelin is actually doing what it's supposed to this time.
How are things with you melly? How are things developing?

Hey Ginger, glad they kept you on Buserelin, just wasn't sure if you had to stop and start.
I would agree, if you are feeling as terrible as it sounds then it will be working - I was terrible on it, just wait till you start puregon, mind you I was on Gonal F so you may be ok. As I've mentioned I had the final week of work as headaches and tiredness got the better of me and couldn't concentrate - can't remember what your job is, but mine is solving problems so concentration is a big thing.

I'm pretty lucky with work - they know what I'm doing and although it's not the easiest to take time out, if I need it I'm taking it and that's the end of it.
I think the idea of keeping me on Buserelin was to not give any more follicles a chance to grow. Here's hoping it's worked! Mentally, the injections are getting harder just because I've been doing them for weeks and I feel like they're not getting me anywhere. Silly as it sounds, I feel like  when my alarm goes off to remind me to do the Buserelin!

Thanks melly I'm hopeful - I've had another bleed which should be a good sign (although we all remember what happened last time). At the moment though I'm nursing a very sore arm - my veins are apparently really deep so they had to dig for it It went completely numb there for a bit after the BT!
The days are counting down for you melly! When is your BT?
