Apprehension

Things I am unlikely to hear at my first stim scan on Wednesday:

  • Blimey......I think you are overstimulating!
  • Wow, you have twice as many follicles as last time
  • You're looking like you'll get 10 eggs instead of the measly 4 you got on IVF#1
  • Fantastic, you are right on track, see you on Sunday for your day 12 scan

I am not feeling much in the way of ovary response to the drugs, I think it was day 8 last time when I felt the first twinge (today is day 6). I have felt little twinges but they have been so slight that it really could just be my mind playing tricks on me.

I am dreading the scan. I keep looking at my work diary and wondering if I will be an absolute mess when I have meetings on Thursday and Friday. I think about the weekend and wonder if I will be happy or not. It's my Other Half's birthday on Friday, and I would love us to be really pleased with the way things are going.

I just want to have a better response than last time. I would just be so pleased with 2 embryos to transfer....make a wish for me.

I know what it downer it is to be a poor responder. I hope this protocol goes better for you. Good luck, and I am hoping for you.

Leah said...

I have made a wish for you. Many wishes, in fact. I sincerely hope you hear wonderful, encouraging news on Wednesday and that your follies fully cooperate!

Not only did I make a wish for you I also picked a card from my Doreen Virtue Angel cards for you.
It said:

Angel Therapy
Archangel Raphael;"Give your cares and worries to us angels, and allow us to take your burdens"

Additional message in book for cards says:

"Have you asked us angels for help with your situation? We can only help if you give us permission. Close your eyes, take a deep cleansing breath. Mentally call upon the angels to help you. Be open to receiving help as it comes to you. The help might be a hunch, idea, intuition or direct intervention. If you receive repetitive guidance, it's important you follow it."
