Hi ladies I thought I'd create this thread to support anyone doing ivf in May 2024, it's great to have other people to talk to going ture the same thing!
My background I'm 31 with low AMH of 3, suffering from secondary infertility 2.5 years ttc had a failed IVF cycle in February where my 4 mature eggs just failed to fertilized so we have been advised to do ICSI for our next cycle! I decided to give my body a break and get back into end of April/may depending on how my cycle returns:)

Yeh I have been feeling the same .. irritated today .. and down as I feel it’s not worked, it’s rubbish huh ? If I don’t have a positive by day 10dpt I’ll be coming off the progesterone .. am not staying on it for no reason .. would just rather my period came if it’s not worked that injecting myself for longer than need be ! 😣

@hopefullsosbry my official test is also 14 days , which would take me to the 11 th of June . Why so long I have no idea … wow your embryo is also amazing 4BB . Thats a great little embryo there . I think I have had symptoms on day 2/3/4 past trasfer , heavy feeling in the womb , mild mild cramping , very irritated as if my period wants to come but I’m blocking it with progesterone . But it’s very hard for me to tell as my ovaries must still be very swollen after 24 eggs collected so I’m not sure if the mild pain was the ovary’s shrinking back down or what . But I have been very short tempered last few days , feeling down , maybe it’s anxiety and not knowing what’s the outcome going to be ? So yeha , only time will tell 😖

@hopefullsosbry I am praying for both of us to get a positive this week ! I had 4AB trasferred, so pretty good grade xxx but it doesn’t matter what we do or don’t do , we can’t change the outcome regardless 😕 just imagine if we both get positives ? That would be so cool ! Alongside with @BakinABaby and others 😍

Yeh that’s a really good grade ..fingers crossed 🤞🏽 mind was a 4BB … have you had any symptoms at all ?? I dunno if I have or if it’s just the progesterone 😑 but my official test date isn’t until the 15th .. which is 14 days after transfer .. my other transfers on my last cycle were all 10 days after transfer? Don’t know if this seems a really long time ?!

Awh sorry it’s still negative .. you never know though !! It could start to show in a couple of days ? What grade was your embryo ? I have been testing every day yeh and trigger still there .. I am 3dpt .. but I feel it’s not going so well .. like you I have a gut feeling it’s not worked this time and also I have been wanting chocolate .. and I only ever want chocolate when my period is coming .. 😐.. I know am super early but i just dunno 🤷🏼‍♀️.. only time will tell for both us .. hopefully we are both surprised and get sone dark lines soon . 🤞🏽✨💖

Ilovebees · 04/06/2024 17:28

@BakinABaby gongratulations on your trasfer ! Hopefully this pretty embryo will grow for the next 9 months or so 😍and great news about your embryos numbers that you have left still :)

@hopefullsosbry yes i did test but still negative , I’m on the 6th day today past trasfer today , so technically I’m 5 and half days past trasfer because today is not over yet .
I think I’m out , you know like sometimes you have a gut feeling ? I have used first response too so that proves that I’m most likely out ! So sad …. Last FET I had , I tested a faint positive 4dp5dt so …
and how many days past trasfer are you now ? Are you testing everyday to make sure trigger is gone ? Xx

hopefullsosbry · 04/06/2024 17:16

Ilovebees · 03/06/2024 10:00

I’m so stupid , I tested today , I’m on the 5th day after transfer and ofcourse it negative 🤐😥 with first response too so I think if I was to have positive , it would at least show a faint line by day 5 past 5 day trasfer ? Am I kidding myself to say that I might still have a chance ??

How’s you today ? Did you do another test today? My trigger is still showing for me but is very faint.

Ooh aa soo excited now! I had my transfer today and finally got some info on our embryos too!
10 eggs retrieved, 6 mature and 5 fertilised. They transferred a fresh day 5 3BA, they called it "pretty" 😍Also still monitoring 2 that are a bit slower, if they keep growing and don't degrade they'll freeze them tomorrow. Please stick pretty one, I really do not want to do another EC.

@camelinastorm have you tested yet?

Congrats on your transfer day !! 🥰 fingers crossed it all goes well for you ! Hopefully your other two little ones will keep growing strong so you can freeze them tomorrow 🥰✨

hopefullsosbry · 04/06/2024 11:42

Oh no hope your daughter is ok ! Hopefully your line will get darker with time . ✨🤞🏽

camelinastorm · 04/06/2024 11:40

My daughter has woken up with a stomach bug so don't want to visit the clinic on ase I pass it on so that's put back, they said ohh just do an at home it may show ......

hopefullsosbry · 04/06/2024 11:27

@camelinastorm dont loose hope .. some people don’t get a postive till later .. did you say you are getting a blood test also ? That should confirm the amount of beta in your system ?

camelinastorm · 04/06/2024 11:21

@BakinABaby congrats on your transfer 🤞🏼 for you xx

camelinastorm · 04/06/2024 11:20

@BakinABaby yes did a at home one there seemed to be a faint line within 5 seconds but then it disappeared so guessing I'm out as I'm 8 dpt

@camelinastorm ..I totally understand .. I have had 3 chemicals now .. and two missed miscarriages .. but keep faith .. it’s so painful to have to go through but you never know .. this could be your time !! 🤞🏽✨

camelinastorm · 03/06/2024 13:54

Can also do urine as of Wednesday I think, after having a chemical I'm reluctant to test 😬 that line being there then it going a week later is heartbreaking

hopefullsosbry · 03/06/2024 13:21

@camelinastorm sore boobs is a good sign and the womb feeling .. 🤞🏽.. fingers crossed it will be BFP for you, did they advise to urine test at all or just to beta ?

BakinABaby · 03/06/2024 12:23

@camelinastorm for what it’s worth the only time I have been pregnant I felt absolutely nothing of interest in the tww, I almost threw the test away before 5min but actually it had a faint line and sure I was pregnant.

camelinastorm · 03/06/2024 11:45

@hopefullsosbry I don't think I have had any symptoms 😞 general sore boobs, heavy feeling in the womb area but nothing really, that's lro6why I don't want to test

camelinastorm · 03/06/2024 11:35

@hopefullsosbry I've delayed it until tomorrow it's too scary 😬

hopefullsosbry · 03/06/2024 11:28

camelinastorm · 30/05/2024 12:08

So I'm on day3 after 5 day transfer, no symptoms feeling quite deflated tbh as I don't feel any different.
My blood test is on Monday and it's getting very close so very scary.

Good luck with your Beta test today !! Have you been feeling any symptoms at all ? Wishing you luck ✨🤞🏽

BakinABaby · 03/06/2024 10:58

@Ilovebees 5pdt should be the same as 10dpo and that is still pretty early, a lot don’t get a positive that soon. Keep your spirits up, I think you’re still in the running.

hopefullsosbry · 03/06/2024 10:47

@Ilovebees try not to worry .. 5days is still very early to test .. some don’t get results till the day their period is due !! Keep positive and maybes wait another two days before testing again?

I am good I had my fresh transfer on Saturday.. currently 2fats part .. out of our 8 follicles we got 5 mature / 5 fertilised.. 1 4BB fresh transfer, then with a 5 day - 3BB and a 6 day 5AB frozen .. so we done not to bad .. the tww is just the worst huh ?

Ilovebees · 03/06/2024 10:00

I’m so stupid , I tested today , I’m on the 5th day after transfer and ofcourse it negative 🤐😥 with first response too so I think if I was to have positive , it would at least show a faint line by day 5 past 5 day trasfer ? Am I kidding myself to say that I might still have a chance ??
