Is anyone else due in Jan 2020? My dates are a bit iffy 🤣 but I’m either due 30/12 or 2/1. Baby number 4 ( I swear we were stopping at 1). 🤣

I had loads of bleeding in the first 7-8 weeks with my son. Lots of brown blood but on a couple of occasions bright red gushes. Had a scan at epu at 6wks and all fine. He’s now 3!

CatRash · 07/05/2019 09:45

POAS with second wee of the day today and got 3+ weeks on a Clear blue. Very reassuring when very little symptoms as I got 1-2 weeks last Monday. I'm 5+1 today 😁

Good luck @Bunnylover84 - I have everything crossed for you!

Missmonkeypenny · 07/05/2019 10:00

DD was a whole two weeks late which felt like forever but I don’t believe my trust lets you go overdue with an IVF baby so I think I’ll be a due date woman, unless baby has other ideas!

I’ve just been for my HCG blood test, standard IVF thing, and should have the results by 1pm today Smile

DaisyMay25 · 07/05/2019 10:05

@Missmonkeypenny I've heard this too that they don't let IVF go over, I'm gonna ask them on Thursday. Hopefully you've got some nice high hcg!

Bunnylover84 · 07/05/2019 10:44

Thanks for thoughts and well wishes everyone... so results are good- weds hcg level was 703, Friday provisional result is 1700!! App to chat through things with gp on Thursday.
@McHelenz All the best for week 4!
@MynameisMrG, @plipliop and @Catrash All the best for your fifth week ladies!
@Bentley111, @Izabelus, @DaisyMay25 Thanks for your messages!
@Seahawk80 and @BowiesJumper Thank you for sharing ladies, makes me feel better to know other people have experienced bad spotting and gone on to have healthy bubbas. Also good choice with the Harry Potter series!

Bunnylover84 · 07/05/2019 10:45

@missmonkeypenny fingers crossed for 1pm!

DaisyMay25 · 07/05/2019 10:46

@Bunnylover84 that's a fantastic result!! Best of luck for Thursday

Seahawk80 · 07/05/2019 10:46

My friend who had IVF was induced on due date but I think that was partly because baby was looking a bit small (also she was the grand old age of 41)

Seahawk80 · 07/05/2019 10:48

Great news @Bunnylover84 !

mynameisMrG · 07/05/2019 10:57

Great news @bunnylover 😊

And that’s great @catrash! Now I want to test again to see if can get the three plus sign!

Missmonkeypenny · 07/05/2019 11:14

So my Beta results are back. At 14dp5dt/19dpo/4 weeks 5 days pregnant my levels is....
5890 Shock

DaisyMay25 · 07/05/2019 11:20

@Missmonkeypenny my gosh! Nearly the same as mine at 5+4!!

Bentley111 · 07/05/2019 11:30

That's really promising @Missmonkeypenny - correct me if I'm wrong but does that mean a higher chance of twins?!

Spoke to the GPs this morning and they've referred me to the midwives who will call me to arrange my booking in appt in the next week. DH is swinging past the drs to pick up my maternity pack. First time this has felt remotely real...!

Missmonkeypenny · 07/05/2019 11:46

Daisy I had to ask her to repeat it, she was very positive about it being such a strong level!

Bentley I only had the one embryo put back but I guess there’s a chance it could have split...

Scan booked in for 23rd of this month!

CatRash · 07/05/2019 14:55

Yes!! Great news @Bunnylover84!

Congratulations @Missmonkeypenny - I have no idea what the numbers mean but they sound great!! Grin

Avocuddles · 07/05/2019 15:54

Haha @CatRash you stole my words exactly! Very glad things are looking good for you @Missmonkeypenny and @Bunnylover84.

Caved in and bought another clearblue on my lunch break today as can't resist the opportunity to see if it's stepped up to the '2-3' mark. Think I'll do it when I get home from work. Does the time of day you take it affect the result?

Avocuddles · 07/05/2019 15:55

@Bentley111 what is a maternity pack?

Bunnylover84 · 07/05/2019 16:14

Thanks so much Everyone!
@avocuddles they say first morning urine has the most concentrated amount of chemical in but at your stage I wouldn’t have thought time of day would matter too much?

Bunnylover84 · 07/05/2019 16:15

Congrats @missmonkeypenny!

Bentley111 · 07/05/2019 17:15

@Avocuddles honestly have no idea Confused think it's just some leaflets. Nothing too exciting!!!

plipliop · 07/05/2019 17:17

I'm so tired!
I'm ready to get into bed.
Great to hear so much good news on the thread.

I've finally booked my GP appointment for Thursday.

Have also told my mum Smile

Avocuddles · 07/05/2019 17:26

@plipliop get yourself some rest! How did your mum react? I live far away from my parents but I'm seeing them at the start of June so will probably tell them then. Did tell one close friend over the weekend, she asked if we'd had our IVF referral through yet so was over the moon to hear that we've had to cancel it! I'm finding it hard to not tell the world but going to put off telling anyone other than really close friends for as long as possible if I can. Think we'll get an early scan at c8 wks as we have a family weekend away with the in laws and there's no way I'd be able to get away with staying off the Prosecco then, so all being well I'll be able to share some happy news (and toast it with some juice....)

plipliop · 07/05/2019 17:33

@Avocuddles she was really pleased!

Duebabynumbertwo · 07/05/2019 17:54

Tentatively joining if I may?
I’m due 08/01 so think I’m 5 weeks but will be getting a clear blue conception indicator tomorrow to confirm!
I’ve had a miscarriage before so I’m not getting too excited just yet...
