ivf 2 - north cyprus!
i didn't wait around after my fet failed in december.
i picked myself up in days and contacted a private clinic i'd heard a lot about in cyprus.
before i knew it, they had put me on the combined pill in order to bring me on in time - ie 13 january.
they accepted me after one cycle- so i didn't waste anytime.
i had my endometrial scratch on the 4th jan... ouch fuck!!! it was horrible but i did it.
i bought my flights for the 13th and hubby for the 20th
the 13th came and i started cramping heavily... incredible abdominal pain came over me, due to the pill but i took painkillers and flew with it. i was an emotional wreck that morning after falling out with my mother and having to fly alone for such a treatment that went badly for me last time, in an unknown place with unknown people.
i shouldn't have worried... everything went so well!!
as if gods divine intervention was with me this time he placed me in the care of some amazingly nice fans of mine, younger brothers who took great care of me and spoilt me everyday. it felt like i was staying with relatives and was at home... while saving a lot on hotel bills and food bills
my injections were given to me at the hospital daily so i didn't have to bother about it at all
for just 750 euros i was stress feee and i didn't feel the injections at all this time! no bruises no pain - it was actually fun going in everyday and meeting the lovely team
i love the dogus hospital in cyprus and its staff. dr sevket is so experienced and abuse and mira and andri make u feel totally secure.
they controlled ohss by reducing the doses... so i didn't hyper stimulate and we triggered on my husbands bday at midnight
i was fine!!!
i went for egg collection on the next satc 25 january and i surprisingly wasn't scarf at all.... i window shopped and laughed and loved my ensuite room at the hospital!
my only fear was the canola going in which they then put in theatre... and the next thing i remember was waking up in my hospital ensuite with hubby on the leather sofa. i was done!!!!
they gave me soup and i ate some biscuits- then got dropped home! i even walked some of the way... strangely no pain nothing.
not a twitch?!?!?!
how can that be when 5 months ago i needed a wheelchair and was in pain for days!
14 eggs collected this time and we know tomorie how many were fertilized with icsi.
last time they took out 16, 12 fertilized with ivf but 5 were frozen of qualities A,A, B, C,C but a double embryo transfer on 29 november came back negative. i knew 2 days later that i hadn't implanted - i could feel it!
so this time with similar numbers returned i do hope for similar quality if not better...
we are having pgd testing on them too to rule out chromomsal abnormalities and tell us the sexes and health of each embryo
reducing the chance of misscarriage or down syndrome
so here i am... enjoying the cyprus sun ad having a holiday... loving this holusY...
singing shopping laughing eating exploring happily and in love with my hubby
it feels like a dark cloud has been lifted off our dark lives... we don't have our results nor the transfer not implanted yet nor carried to 12 wwwks safely yet... there are so many hurdles from now to giving birth to a living healthy baby but i feel better... in in a happier stronger better place...
i hope my lucky non jinxked phases continues.... my beta pregnancy test is due at the end of the two week wait which will be my 39th bday... valentine's day!
