Sunday 29th October : from embryo transfer

So, I had a bit more bleeding before bed but none over night. It is more like the brown icky stuff that you get towards the beginning or end of your period. I still have some mild cramping, nothing as bad as a period pain. I have a sense of guilt about anything I may …

Wednesday 18th October: lead up to embryo transfer

Work has been so busy I haven't had time to collate my thoughts! So, I'm on Progynova and Cyclogest. The cyclogest suppositories are giving me squishy bowel movements which are not the nicest thing in the world. That seems to be the worst side effect so far. I'm doing one in the morning and one …

Day 26 : Monday 22nd May

I skipped a blog post yesterday. It is my birthday today and we had a party on Saturday. Yesteday was all about the tidy up! I have a scan this morning to see how everything is progressing! (Later) The scan revealed that there are some eggs (about 6) but they are all a bit small …
