I took the plunge and instead of brunette (as originally planned!) I ended up a redhead! What the hell, it's nice to try something different and it'll fade over time. And I got the chop too! So I have a new look for the Spring and my upcoming pregnancy. Because this IS going to work. I am going to get pregnant and have a happy and healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby. I am!
I must confess though that I am starting to get a wee bit nervous! This time around I am going to be on only 75iu of puregon. Teeny tiny dosage compared to most people but in my case I got 18 eggs on 100iu and a nice dose of OHSS between collection and transfer. Not something I would like to repeat as I was miserable for a good five days. Really miserable. Think waking up in the middle of the night in tears from pain and vomiting type miserable (and I am guilty of not informing the clinic of how I was feeling and stubbornly going ahead with transfer anyway). I know I shouldn't be nervous because clearly I need a lower dose but I can't help but feel my body may not respond as well this time around as that time I had been doing acu for a good 12 months prior and this time I only started going again about 5 weeks ago. I just hope it doesn't influence things too much. And that my eggs decide to behave and grow at a normal rate rather than an inflated rate. Eek!
Hot!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're looking absolutely wonderful love! Athena xoxo
ReplyDeleteI like the new look and the new attitude! Yes, this IS going to work. And don't forget, slow and steady is better. I had better quality eggs when I had fewer. I'll be checking in of course
ReplyDeleteThank you for commenting on my blog ;)
Love the new hair. Everything is going to work out and you will have that healthy and happy pregnancy. :-)
ReplyDeleteYou look great! And yes, your new pregnancy hair rocks, great attitude!
ReplyDeleteLooks cool! I am crossing my fingers and toes for you. I just went on to the waiting list to go and have my fibroids surgically removed. I have to wait up to six months. I sure am hoping it all goes well and we can get pregnant after it.
ReplyDeleteNew to your blog! Good luck with your IVF cycle!

Ooo, looks gorgeous! Yep, definitely need a new look to go with pregnancy. :) Hey, I was 75iu of Puregon remember...sure, I don't have possible polycystic ovaries, but I'm sure that this will be the perfect dose for you and you'll get a good amount of quality eggies. Yay, not long now!
ReplyDeleteI did not see your hair before but I like it now! Good luck with this cycle!
