Nurses Appointment and Info Night

Yesterday I had my IVF injecting section with the Nurses at the clinic. My plan has now changed

THE PLAN
Start Pill before 25th July
2nd August - Sniffing Synarel Morning and Night
8th August - Stop The Pill
11th August - Blood Test (Period of some sort)
16th August - (If all well with blood test) start FSH injections (Puregon Pen 150mg)
21st August - Blood Test 8am
25th August - Blood Test 8am and Scan 1:15pm (Moved to the next day so I can have my scan done in My Town as FS had a clinic day here then)
Sometime from the 27 - 29th EPU is planned.
This time I will be triggering with Ovidrel and not Pregnyl

Then a few days after EPU I will start on Crinone Gel which will continue until my BT 16 days after EPU.
ET is planed for 5days after EPU so I will be going to Blast


This new plan is much better as it means lest travel for me. It's also better for the clinic as they have 26 cycling this month and as we are all cycling together they have decided to put some of us back a day so that the 2 FSs are not rushed with the scans. The Clinic is also going to send me my medication, so that is an other trip that I don't have to make.


The information night covered everything that was involved in IVF and how to contact the clinic in an emergency and when not to. It was mostly aimed at the people that have never headed of IVF before, so really there was no information overload for me. Mum did come with me to both the nurses appointment and to the information night and she said after, that I had told her almost all of the information already
So now we both know that we were not walking blindly into this. Thanks to SMC and all of you lovely sharing ladies

Oh and BTW - The customer (her name is Mel) when we meet up at the hospital waiting area the first thing that she said to me was - So where is your partner? To which I replied - I don't have a partner
Well her reaction was great she smiles and congratulated me on courage to go for this alone. I am really not sure when she is cycling, really didn't get a chance to chat to her much as I was the last to leave the information night as the nurse has some paper work for me to sign and wanted to protect my right to privacy by not talking about it in front of all the other couples. LOL it was just the drug form that she had forgotten to get me to sign. Nothing that really needed to be done in private.
