Wow, fourteen follies? You're doing so well! :yelclap:
Make sure you plan to have some help with your little ones on the day of the EPU...you'll need to put your feet up and drink lots of water OK? No running around and being supermum that day OK? I hope the rest of your journey is rewarding and full of joy for you and your lucky IPs. Thanks for keeping us posted.

OMG the trigger was weird.:eek:
The needle wouldn't go in so I had to stab it in my belly, very strange feeling.:(
We are all a go now so I will keep you all posted.

[wa mum of 4]

Ok now I am nervious.:eek:
EPU tomorrow, I am not too worried about the proceedure just it all being successful.
I am worried that even if they get a good quantity the quality may be poor and we would have done all this for nothing.:crying:
I know there is no garranty's but still its a concern.:(
Well I will let you all know how it all goes tomorrow.

Awww honey. You are such a sweety.

Having done this only 2 days ago, those concerns are still very raw and real for me. All the what ifs.

You will be fine, and your IP's are getting a chance at parenthood that they didn't have before. You have done the best that you could do. Anything internal is totally beyond your control.

My oly advice is to make sure you have PLENTY of help with the kids for a few days. I'm still resting up, and with 4 kids it isn't easy.

Good Luck and we will all be cheering for you.

Love, Michelle

Hi Sarah

I wrote a long reply earlier but bubhub seems to be having a few online difficulties, cause it ain't here.

Anyway, sharn't rabbit on as i have a headache for hell and typing won't help.

Just take it easy your at the final hurdle of an amazing juorney to help someone else and I think it must be as hard on donors as recipients if the outcome isn't a success but the success rate is less than 50%, and you've given someone a much better chance of success that they could themselves. If like me it was 2% of 5%, complex calculation, when both sides have problems.:confused:

good luck you in the hands of the gods so just look after yourself as that is the best you can do for the eggs:hugs:

Lxxx

[FOURtunate]

Any news yet?

Are you okay? Will have a chat with on MSN later if you feel up to it.

Love, Shell

P.S. We've been here all day cheering for ya! :smiliedance: :yelclap:
