Almost there...

I've been really bad at keeping this up to date lately thanks to being really busy but I'll get you up to speed.

On Friday I had my second scan to see if my lining was thick enough for transfer.  They wanted around 7mm and unfortunately my lining was only 6mm so I was asked to carry on with the Suprecur injections and oestrogen tablets until Tuesday (tomorrow).  I cleverly made sure that I had enough medication to last that long before I left Sheffield.

However, I did NOT make sure I had enough needles and syringes.  Fortunately, once again, working at a hospital has its perks.  Trying to get needles just before 4pm on a Friday wasn't exactly easy though.  I finally managed to get some from the antenatal clinic but pretty much every man and his dog knows I'm doing IVF now.  I spent a lot of time running around frantically, explaining my situation to anyone I thought might be able to help.

I got my needles but these ones are twice the size (length and thickness) of the ones I've been using so they cause quite a bit more difficulty in inserting them and more bleeding - although they aren't any more painful!

So tomorrow we head back to Sheffield and I find out whether my lining is playing ball - I feel quite bloated and keep having random twinges (as if I was premenstrual) so I guess that's probably a good thing.  I'll try and make sure I post tomorrow and keep you up to date!
