Sorry to hear about the scan sesame, what's the FC's take on what could be changed/improved if you do have to cancel?

spare I hope you were able to talk it over with the embryologist, let us know what happens!

good luck for tomorrow minx - beware the hatch of ignominy and the towering stirrups of doom! . FX for some good frostie candidates for you too.

beaky!!! PUPO! YAY! how are you feeling? Get lots of rest when you can and generally be a lady of luxury, let's get those embies feeling snuggly in their new home! When is OTD?

Feeling fine here, desperately trying not to succumb to symptom spotting. I wouldn't know where to begin there tho anyway! With my natural diff I had implantation bleed (quite late, happened when AF was due) and sore boobs, but I've had the latter since I started the cursed Lutigest and nothing of the former. Definitely some womble area twinges and whatnot, but again I've had that on and off ever since EC! OTD is next Friday which is 14DP3DT, which does seem quite late but I'm not sure I can handle testing before then. At least if it is a BFN it will be friday and I can chuck a sickie and cry all weekend. If i test early I'll have to hold it together for too long! Honestly not feeling very confident given how ropey our embies are but trying to maintain a PMA!

Def need happy on the new thread!! I've pasted my stats below, what's the theme this time? Maybe not the clusterdiff, just in case (oh god, so doom and gloom!).

Rain, 34, ttc since March 2012. unexplained. Mystery bfp oct 13, MMC Nov 13. IVF#1 Aug 2015

Sesame so sorry it wasn't a better result at your scan, fx for Monday still. Hugs in the meantime.

Oo Barking are you doing your triathlon this weekend?

Minx and Spare good luck for your transfers tomorrow!

Happy how are you feeling at the moment?

Rain that is ages to wait! Mine is also ages (two weeks yesterday) but I may test early because last round I started bleeding before that anyway. Also just remember the success other past berries have had with "average" embies. All fingers crossed for next Friday

I'm a right crabbit misery today, not sure why, maybe it's just the hormones but I don't like it. Im trying to stay positive and happy for the beakryos to have a happy environment!

Shall I do a runners and riders list too when we get the new thread underway?

Here's my stats for next thread:

Beaky 35, ttc 3 yrs, 2x failed iui 1 long protocol ivf cancelled, 1 short protocol IVF BFN, very low amh etc etc. In 2ww for 2nd sp IVF.
