Intralipids

Well I had my intralipids infusion today. Just took little over an hour which was great. The first time I had this it took three hours..ahhhh. Thus will help to suppress my immune system so as to make my uterus extra embryo friendly for next week. Just one more day in work and then I have St Patrick's Day and Friday off...yay! Before I know it...transfer week!

Excited, scared, anxious....hopeful!

Down

Dunno why but I'm feeling really down today. Just keep thinking of everyone else who's pregnant or just had a baby. Think I'm getting scared as transfer approaches...the thought of it not working :(

Also I've totally piled on weight these past few months - can't seem to get a handle on it.

Ahhhh...I'll cheer up tomorrow

Eeeeesh!

Lots of EWCM at the mo - really can't remember if same thing happened last FET. Still on the nasal spray (down regulation) so defo not ovulating.

I woke up super early this morning- so annoying as I really wanted to have lie in today. I have a three day week ahead in work- we have St Patrick's Day (thurs) and Friday off this week. And then next week I've booked thurs and fri off for transfer. Whoop!

Scan 2

Just a quick one. Scan went well this morning; lining looked good. Next appointment is Tuesday for intralipids. Feeling very under the weather the past few days , everyone seems to be sniffling and spluttering all over the place!!

Pancake Tuesday!!!

One of my favourite days of the year. I had 6 pancakes with sugar and lemon today....yum! Our pancakes are crepes...so beautiful. Lent starts tomorrow...hope I can survive without tea. I bought lots of fresh lemons so gonna drink lots of ot water with a slice of lemon. I'm ot a major fan of herbal teas so not gonna bother with them.

My next appointment with clinic is this Friday. Just a scan to make sure lining is developing well and to check if ovaries are quiet. Then next Tuesday, I'll be getting intralipids again, (this is to suppress the immune system )

Energy levels still high!

Energy!!

Wow I've so much energy since starting on the steroids on Friday. Since Friday, I've got so much done - sorting out our back room which had become a bit of a junk room, getting through all the ironing ( hate that), and a general spring cleaning. Our apt is gleaming right now!

I never noticed the difference in energy last time - maybe because I was up to my eyes in work and was run off my feet. I think it helps that Spring is in the air too and the evenings are much brighter lately.

Oh god, I really am so scared thinking that this FET might not work or even worse the same thing happen as last time. I try not to give it any thought one way or the other but every so often, it creeps in, I try to brush it away but it's so hard.

Anyway tomorrow will be pancake Tuesday and I can't wait, I LOVE pancakes!!!!

I'm gonna give up drinking tea for Lent...it's gonna be tough. My clinic advises against drinking caffiene after transfer so I may as well give it up now in time for the transfer.

Scan 1

Well I had first scan of the cycle today. All went well - ovaries are nice and quiet and lining is thin. So I start all meds today : steroids, clexane injections, folic acid, B vits, Estrafem, and aspirin.

Next scan will be next Friday!!
