happy Sunday ladies. Real spanner in the works but my period was 9 days late now after all the IVF as expected but just did a pregnancy test this morning and it’s a really strong positive. We have literally had sex twice in the last month - no idea when I ovulated - so idea how pregnant I am. I am in so much shock. I know I have been here before - so scared and also I haven’t been taking the pred, intralipids Progesterone, aspirin or the new drug GSCF. I have started on Pred today and will call CRP tomorrow. Maybe we can save this one.

OMG @Jecca88 Amazing news! Gentle congratulations to you. Dont stress about the meds, start as soon as you can and wishing you the absolute best for this one hun xxx

Deerdancer34 · 05/10/2025 21:31

@Jecca88 Oh wow, isn't life a whirlwind! Crossing everything for you 💓🙏

Fletchasketch · 05/10/2025 17:50

@Jecca88 wow, yes, I'm not surprised that came as a shock. Good that you can get to CRP easily next week. I'm rooting for you that this is your time. As previously mentioned, the clearblue weeks might give you a bit of a clue. Where I am, you can get them on Deliveroo if everything is shut. Sending gentle congratulations and lots of luck your way x

Whoa @Jecca88 that is so crazy and amazing!! Must feel like a total headfuck. Wow. Could you get the clear blue weeks one to see if that could shed some light? Try not to panic about the meds - remember its never an exact science and you are doing all you can now you know. Sending you a gentle squeeze and gentle congrats. xxx

@Jecca88 oh my gosh, what a shock!! Gentle congratulations, I have everything crossed for you ❤️ x

pagey23 · 05/10/2025 13:11

amazing - I’m sure they will fit you in and possibly could even get in tomorrow. Is it worth getting a scan too? @Jecca88really hope it works out!!!

Jecca88 · 05/10/2025 13:09

Thanks @pagey23 i am about 40 mins away - so luckily quite easy to get there and get meds. Hoping can have the intralipids this week.

pagey23 · 05/10/2025 13:03

@Jecca88that much be such a shocker but amazing news! Are you close to CRP
amd can pick up meds tomorrow? I think they can also post them to you but ideally you don’t want to wait. Hope they can for you in for intralipids soon! Best of luck 🤞🏻

@Hopeandfaith1990 70%! I mean that's good to know but then so terribly disappointing/frustrating that it didn't work. I can only imagine how you feel with that 🥋💓At least you will get checked and then you are armed with more information and give you the best chance on the next round 💪

Hope everyone doing ok ❤️ Xx

@Deerdancer34 thanks lovely, I need to write that down and say it out loud to myself everyday!! It’s like a TTC rat race isn’t it sometimes.

@MC8 definitely, and I find symptom spotting almost completely pointless because of all the various medications! Hope you’re doing ok.

@Jecca88 I didn’t really know I needed one either but have accepted the NHS offer as they’re so expensive privately! The consultant basically kept saying my last transfer should have worked, that I had at least a 70% chance of it working (helpful, not) so a hysteroscopy could uncover something to explain why it didn’t? I don’t know. Still going to try naturally this cycle again haha. Even with the surgery.

My period was late too after EC. So sorry about your waiting times, if it’s any consolation my experience has been so similar and I’ve spoken to lots of people who also were the same. I think it’s because IVF is actually so nurse-led, but it doesn’t make it any easier to stomach when it seems so simple to us. So frustrating.

Jecca88 · 30/09/2025 13:52

@Fletchasketch ahh i bet, but if its your first time hearing a heartbeat, just try and hold onto that. Each day, 1 foot in front of the other.

@Hopeandfaith1990 i didn't know you needed a Hysterocopy? I had one in March and i actually had it awake and it was not too bad tbh. Not as bad as the MVA i had. Also my Husband got to be in the room with me. Hoping all goes well my love. I am feeling so frustrated. I just called up Kings and they have no nurses consultation until 28th October, and wanted to check if there was a cancellation - but nothing. I am waiting on my period which is 6 days late, already taken a test and negative, and know that IVF can mess it up. Really wanted to do a transfer in October, just don't understand why a 15 min nurses consultation will prevent that. SOOO frustrating.

Gentle congrats @MC8 glad tests are getting darker, you are doing all you can - keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Fletchasketch · 30/09/2025 10:57

Thanks so much for the lovely comments, the support and solidarity on here is just incredible, I am so so grateful to have found you all. Still a long way to go yet, and conscious that both of my losses were around the 8 week mark, so will definitely start to feel real if we get through the next scan.

@MC8 keeping my fingers crossed for you, these early weeks seem to last an eternity. All the best x

@Deerdancer34 and @Objectiontime thanks for the good wishes. Scan was this afternoon and we heard a heartbeat for the first time ever. Measuring slightly ahead at 7w1 but know we're very much not out of the woods yet. I was an utter mess going in and Dr Edge was so lovely. Feeling huge relief at least temporarily today.

How is everyone else doing?

@Fletchasketch Absolutely amazing news, so happy for you :) xxx

MC8 · 29/09/2025 21:24

@Hopeandfaith1990 zero symptoms - but it's so, so early, so trying not to read into it. Oh, definitely good that it's going to be done under general - I haven't had a hysteroscopy but after all my erpcs I woke up feeling teary, happy and in complete disbelief that it all happened without me feeling a thing 😂I totally get you on the schedule thing! I'm a planner (and slight control freak) so have to try really hard to let go...

@Deerdancer34 thank you 💕

Deerdancer34 · 29/09/2025 21:08

Hopeandfaith1990 · 29/09/2025 20:16

Oh yay hope it goes well tomorrow 🩷 do you have many symptoms ?

feeling okay thanks - happy it’s going to be done under general, not had one before but apparently it’s quite unpleasant if you’re awake! Trying not to feel as if I’m ’behind Schedule’ knowing that IVF and TTC rarely goes or abides by any kind of schedule 🤣

@Hopeandfaith1990 You're not behind schedule, you are very much on time 🥰 I had such an issue with timelines, I really had to work on calming myself down. Lots of love to you 😘

Deerdancer34 · 29/09/2025 20:39

@Fletchasketch Ohhh congratulations!! This has made my day, I am so so pleased for you! There really is nothing like hearing that heartbeat 💓 Soak it up! At one of the scans, I recorded it so I could listen to it, just a thought 🥰

@MC8 This is wonderful news! Lots of love for tomorrow!

Oh wow… that’s so amazing! Really happy for you and hope we all get to see that day! Put your feet up and rest tonight - it must have been an emotionally exhausting day for you

OHH my love @Fletchasketch what great news. Honestly it's the best feeling ever. Did you just burst into tears?

Thank you! I think I was pretty much hyperventilating and then when she put the sound on I just went to pieces. Genuinely the day I thought I'd never see.

How are you feeling this week?
