FET day 3

After what it seems like months on OCP and progynova (oestradiol), finally got the go ahead for FET on last friday.

It took only one scan on wed to reveal that the lining is primed sufficiently at 8mm to proceed with FET in 2 days time. - a lot less hassle than a fresh cycle.

was put on cylogest suppositories but had very bad bloatededness, and some nausea. switched to im progesterone instead for luteal support. the jabs are really painful. somehow though having gone thru the same jabs for a fresh cycle, this time round, the oil based jabs are less tolerable. :(

got to just grin and bear! perhaps it's the oestradiol acting as well, cause every pain seem to be magnified and am really super short fused. husband got the brunt of that..

what we did different this time - we did accupunture 3 days continuously before the FET (inluding on the day of the FET itself). and am taking 14 days of twice a day sachets of some TCM powder.

also avoiding all cold water and raw food. and taking chicken essence once or twice a day. trying to drink lots of warm water.

I have good feelign about this cycle, the law of averages should be on my side this time.

hi there! sorry that your blog hasn't been updated in many months. just wondering how your fertility treatment is going and if you're doing well. i am sorry that your path to motherhood is so tough. i just had a dnc after a miscarriage and am on bedrest now, so i'm harbouring hopes of trying again soon. your many tries is inspiring and while i hope that i don't have to go through so much before getting pregnant again, i am inspired and determined to try again and again until i become a mother!
thanks!
