Only 7 follicles

Just had my second scan and I’m about 7 days into stims. There are only 7 follicles responding and about 9 that aren’t. I’m feeling really disappointed. Has anyone got any success stories with that number?

Just got a new internal job and about to get pregnant…

I have recently been successful in securing a promotion on my team. However, I applied for this job over 6 months ago and didn’t expect for it to take this long. I most likely won’t start until June due to background checks (no idea why civil service do this for internal candidates). I’ve been planning to have a baby this year for the past few years and I really struggle with my overall health (won’t go into it), so it’s really now or never as my body will not be able to handle it if I get any older. I’ve had fertility issues for the past few years and I’m currently in the middle of IVF and due to have my transfer in 2 weeks, so will most likely start the role already 2 months pregnant. I’m really worried about how this will go down as I will most likely only be there 7 months before maternity start. I really want the job and plan on going back to work full time after maternity leave. Can they get rid of me at all? For reference I’ve worked on this team over 8 years. Anyone else gone through similar at all?

Cetrotide nightmare!

I’ve heard the stories but oh my gosh. Cetrotide is a pain! I injected the first one this morning and it was a right faff, there were so many bubbles that kept appearing and I’m worried I didn’t get enough of the medication due to letting lots of liquid out! (Not to mention it’s so stingy). Any tips would be great please!
