AF finally arrived yesterday so today is CD2. Started Synarel sniffing this morning and Puregon injections tomorrow night. The Puregon dose is increased this time so I am hoping we will get a few more eggs. Actually I don't care - just as long as the quality is good. Actually, no, not just good - I want fucking brilliant eggs this time please, and a bigger fluffier lining too while we're at it!
I am staying Friday night at a friend's house, and another friend who is also staying has agreed to help me as I have two injections that night [DH usually does all my injecting]. I must say she sounded a little too excited at the idea, I'll have to make sure we do them before the wine starts flowing too freely! This friend has been keeping baby things for me for 7 years and told me today that she finally gave them all to someone else on the weekend. Rather than apologise, she said that her keeping these things has been holding me back and now that they are gone I am free to get pregnant. I wish it was that simple...
I have an ultrasound appointment next Monday. If all goes to plan EPU should be next Wednesday and transfer around the 27th. I was planning to lose a bit of weight before starting this cycle but as usual I have procrastinated and now it's too late.
Anyhoo, come on Cycle #11, we're off!

I'm glad things are underway. Aren't friends the best? Even if they have needles pointed at you, it's usually with the best loving intention :-) I hoping for some great quality eggs and a great big nice fluffy lining!
He he. I think some people get too much enjoyment out of sticking needles in us. My Dh gets way too excited. Glad to hear you are starting!
Oh, good luck with the sniffing and the jabbing!!
Go Legs Eleven!!
I like your friends mentality ... kinda makes sense xox
Good luck with this cycle! Hope stimming goes well and you get plenty of good eggies!! (and thanks for stopping by my blog)
Well meaning friends, I so wish their theories were right. I hope she is right about this cycle. Good luck.
Hope the increase in FSH does the trick. Legs eleven here we come! Heres wising you a great EPU and plump lining. I never get around to the weight loss either...
All best wishes for this cycle! On the baby clothes, etc., I actually made my sister get rid of the stuff she was saving for me because I hated the pressure from her continually asking if I wanted her to send it to me!
How exciting!!! I can't wait to follow along -- G always laughed that he needed a dart gun instead of a needle when we did the follistim :)

Ps -- it's good to know there are other stepmonsters out there :) ROOOAR.
