Oh @Iris2024 I welled up reading your update. I still check back to see how you are all getting on every now and then, you were all such a support to me. I'm so pleased for you. Fingers and toes and everything else crossable for a sticky bean xx🤞❤️

Awwww it’s been a rollercoaster 🎢 🙈 I’m hoping this is it now and a sticky bean. The tests today at 10DPO were strong for how early I am. I’m so scared to do more tests now though. How’re you doing darling?

@Fullofconfusion so sorry, hopefully you’ll get some clarity on your cycle soon so at least you know where you’re at 🫶🏼

Congratulations to you all! @Esssa @Iris2024 @LuckyDuck93 Such lovely news to see 🥰

Iris2024 · 16/02/2026 19:16

Thank you ladies, I’m really trying to protect myself but right now I’m pregnant.

@ChaE05 History is we have a 7DD and caught first cycle. We started in April, caught in August and a chemical, cycles were all out of whack until before Christmas I would say. Hycosy in October. All tests been fine and DP sperm. Just need that one good egg and hope this is it 😩❤️❤️

@Fullofconfusion im so sorry for all your going through. The heartbreak is horrific!

@ttcnumerodos I hope they do give you the meds tomorrow and give you the best chance. I’m 42 so know how it feels. I have a fertility appointment next Wednesday and if I’m still pregnant I’ll be asking for it too! Sending love ❤️

I'm sorry you've had a rough time @Fullofconfusion. Sending big 🫂 I am in the same boat, 41 and before I caught this time I was beginning to think we might draw a line under it. No pain at the moment, mild cramping. I phoned EPAU there and I've just to monitor bleeding and call if it gets worse. They might be in touch to start me on progesterone tomorrow, then early scan Wednesday morning. Just a waiting game for now x

Fullofconfusion · 16/02/2026 18:13

@LuckyDuck93so happy that your 8 week scan was good news.

@Iris2024and @Esssatentative congratulations!! I’ve got everything crossed for you both.

so many positives on this thread at the moment. It definitely brings hope.

@ttcnumerodosI’m sorry you’ve started bleeding. Have you any pain? I hope EPAU are helpful. Unfortunately my local EPAU weren’t brilliant when I called with bleeding however they have looked after me well since. I hope they can see you asap.

I’ve had bloods every 48 hours since EPAU saw me last week as I still had pain. Finally been told I don’t have to go back for more and just need to take a pregnancy test next week which will hopefully be negative. No idea where I am in my cycle at the moment due to miscarriage so will just see how we go and start trying again next cycle. I’m not sure how many more cycles we can keep going. Unfortunately age isn’t on my side.

ttcnumerodos · 16/02/2026 16:30

Sorry to change the tone when there's happy news but I've started bleeding this afternoon. Been wiping pink for a few days but now it's bright red. Building myself up to tell DH and phone EPU 🥺

ttcnumerodos · 16/02/2026 16:28

Congratulations @Iris2024- everything crossed for you ✨ xx

ChaE05 · 16/02/2026 16:22

@LuckyDuck93amazing news on your early scan. So so pleased for you!

@Iris2024yay!! Congrats! Please remind me of your history again? You had an early loss last year didnt you? Xx

Great news @Iris2024 keeping everything crossed for you!

@Iris2024Oh amazing 💐🤞🏼✨

LuckyDuck93 · 16/02/2026 11:55

@Iris2024 Congratulations!!❤ Fingers crossed for everything going smoothly for you.

@Blondepeach I spent all of last week telling myself the same, absolutely nothing could convince me otherwise, I tried so hard to remember that worrying wasn't going to change the outcome, but it's easier said than done isn't it. Definitely be kinder to yourself, it's an emotional rollercoaster x

@LuckyDuck93Thank you. It reassures me that your felt the same and that there is a change I can get a happy outcome. I’ve brightened up a little bit this afternoon, just riding the anxiety waves out💛

LuckyDuck93 · 16/02/2026 14:44

@Iris2024 I remember feeling exactly the same when you set the thread up too! Hope you can try to enjoy the coming weeks, I've really struggled with it but seeing a heartbeat this morning has finally made me take a breath and relax a little!

Iris2024 · 16/02/2026 12:45

Iris2024 · 16/02/2026 11:57

Thank you @Blondepeach ❤️ never in a million years thought I would see a positive test when I set this thread up. Lovely news that your 8 week scan went so well 🤍

This was meant for @LuckyDuck93
my head is everywhere! 😂

Congratulations @Iris2024 everything crossed for you. I'm basically a pretzel at this point 😂

Going to collect heparin and cyclogest from the hospital this afternoon. Now to tell my mum she is having the kids while I go.

Allmywishcometrue · 16/02/2026 12:20

@Blondepeach It's your anxiety playing tricks with your mind. I hope Thursday come fast for you and you can be reassured.

@Iris2024 Congratulations. So exciting!

Feeling an absolute anxious and emotional mess today, my mind just keeps going over them telling me bad news at my scan on Thursday. I also had a termination 13 years ago exactly (I was 17) and I just can’t help but think I took it for granted back then that it was actually a pregnancy in the right place, even though I was in an awful relationship and it was the right decision at that moment in time.

Sorry to vent and be a bit of a misery ladies, not looking for any answers but just wanted to put it out there in case anybody is feeling similar on this Monday morning! Hopefully not 😬 x

Blondepeach · 16/02/2026 11:12

@LuckyDuck93thats incredible news 💐 so happy for you!

ttcnumerodos · 16/02/2026 10:45

@LuckyDuck93 Congrats! I'm so happy for you.

Hi Ladies,

How are you all doing?

We had a healthy 8 week scan this morning and honestly I still can't quite believe it, I honestly can't thank you enough for all your support over the last few months, wishing more than anything you all get your BFPs soon ❤

xx
