@LRW26 that is so exciting and can't believe how short the wait times are. I have everything crossed that it is successful 💜

I am good . It has been pretty straight forward since morning sickness stopped . I Am now wfh which has helped too as it is not overly demanding compared to what I normally do (teacher).

@apwilso hope all is well xx

Update from me.. blood test results were normal so we’re now on the IVF waiting list and we’ve been told it’ll be between 8-10 weeks but probably shorter which is super exciting. We only get 1 free try on the NHS and then after that we’d have to fund it ourselves so we’re just going to see what happens.

@1992EM 30 weeks! Wow.. that seems to have gone by so fast. How are you feeling?

@apwilso hope you’re ok xx

Hey @apwilso how are you doing? I’ve just gone back and got updated because I don’t always get notifications.

So my journey and progressed a little. I’ve had blood tests (all normal) and a HyCoSy scan which again was all normal (tubes aren’t blocked at all and follicle was there ready to be released). They’re going to get my bloods again this week to see if I’ve ovulated. If I haven’t they’re going to give me some medication to make me ovulate and if the bloods are normal our next step is IVF. Apparently the wait list for IVF is weeks not months so just going to see what happens.

I’ve tried to keep off this and stopped doing all of the OPKs and stuff and just try to chill out (harder said than done) I’m also going for fertility acupuncture which was actually really good.

Hope everyone else is doing okay. X

@1992EM that's true hahaa. Did another this morning couldn't see anything though so will have to just wait a few days. Not sure if it was just a dodgy strip test or not x

Hi all! Having another shiz shiz shiz moment.

5 days before period and just had a shower and thought why not just do a pregnancy test. I watched it for a few seconds and when I came back there's a slight line I think but my boyfriend is home this week from work so I've not had chance to picture and show yous. It's extremely faint but saw it whilst drying!

Not going to say anything to him about it just yet! If I am I'm screwed! Got a works do on Friday another managers meal next Thursday. How do I cover that?!

apwilso · 20/07/2021 21:16

No weren't positive on my tww. To be fair not really tired this month so would be surprised if I am pregnant

I've only just read this thread, so sorry all!
@apwilso was it positive??

apwilso · 23/06/2021 08:48

@1992EM thanks! Don't know if I'm just making up lines because I want it so bad but feel as if I can an EXTREMELY faint line note like a shadow again. Going to leave it a few days now as I got darker tests last time around 14dpo

@apwilso best of luck 💕

@1992EM I think because I've stopped testing in my cycle around the 8dpo mark. My boyfriend is away till Thursday and I wanna know whilst he's not here but last time I didn't get a clear line till 14dpo but started getting a faint like around 10. So either tomorrow or Thursday or nothing then I'll leave it xx

@1992EM when I was pregnant the other month I had a few symptoms and some are similar this month but I'm going to wait and see!

@apwilso sorry to hear about you isolation. The best of luck when testing. I have everything crossed for you. I had back pain initially and then went away . It is now back . I think it is a good sign early on. Sees to come in waves throughout pregnancy . Well for me anyway xx

OP posts:
apwilso · 21/06/2021 13:55

Had my drinks on Friday. Now just waiting to see what happens. Extremely bloated and was cramping and had like pains shooting in lower stomach to pubic area. Backache as well!

Going to wait and see. Just been sent home from work due to having to self isolate which I wasn't even told till today and I'm 2 days overdue! How ridiculous. So maybe I can see how it goes whilst I'm working from home x

@tabbycat92 it is funny how you just have a feeling ❤

@apwilso I am sure it will be absolutely fine to have a couple on Friday. 💕

@LRW26 the human body is just weird! My friend has recently announced she's pregnant after a 3 year battle. Probably not what you want to hear but I guess it's a positive if your tests look normal x
