Dear Diary - I have finally started stimms! I am currently on day 2.

I'm sure I won't be using many 'smiley faces' in due course; especially when the bloat sets in! But do you know what I say - bring it on! lol
So last Friday (on day 15 of down reg), I went in for bloods, scan and teaching session.
Bloods were the usual debacle of trying to find a vein to tap.......
Scan was over and done with very quickly - the 'scan lady' (I'm assuming she was a Doc or a scanning tech not sure) said my uterine lining was looking good and on my right ovary there were about 4-5 follies and on the left about 7-8 follies. These numbers seem quite promising - hopefully though its more about quality rather then quantity! Fingers crossed! Teaching session nurse Zoe was very lovely and super helpful/informative. And we were sent on our way with loads of info and a big bagful of drugs.

I called them late in the afternoon - as I wanted to know whether I would start stimming from Friday night. Luckily it was Zoe who answered so she gave me all the info I needed to know; I wasn't completely down regged and they wanted to give me a couple more days.
And she booked me in for a hysto at 6.30am on Monday morning!
So went along yesterday - hysto was over very quickly (I love sedation) and woke up with some bad cramps.....nurse advised everything was looking good; cervix to uterus length was 7cm which is normal and the opening to both my Fallopian tubes were good also. Went home and stayed in bed for the rest of the day.
Got the call I could start stimming from that night :-)
And that's you up to date diary.
On a side note; I am forever in the loo - 2 litres of water and 1 litre of milk a day is a killer!
So here we are - right at the precipice if you like....I'm excited, nervous, scared and anxious. But also in a weird way - feeling like we can do this.

My husband is so so so supportive and I feel like he has literally wrapped me up in cotton wool to protect me.
