Hi!
How are you both getting on?
Nearly half way through theFlowers

Newchances · 17/06/2021 18:51

Thanks we are grand,trying not to read into every symptom (cramping,sore breasts,tired,etc) they all seem to be a symptom of medications and unfortunately are also a symptom of the dreaded period lol. Cramping was Monday and a bit Tuesday so hoping that could be the implementation. We have been told to test on the 22nd so we will know Tuesday if it is successful. Keeping everything crossed. She's been keeping her feet warm and we are a lot more relaxed than with the iuis so hopefully all stands in our favour and we get the BFP.

Hi OP,

We're a 2 mum family with one DC and another on the way, both conceived via IVF. I've got no advice really because everyone copes with the fertility journey differently but just wanted to send some best wishes for OTD (offical test date) next week 🤞🤞

Thanks and congratulations to the 3 of you 😀

Partner feels like she has PMS,trying to stay positive but not feeling hopeful. Really tempted to do an early test but trying to hold out

I'm place marking for the result Smile

Newchances · 20/06/2021 16:32

Took an early test, clear blue digital - and somehow there was either too little or too much urine on the stick so we got a book on the screen! Just waiting now until Tuesday. No more pms hoping it was early pregnancy signs, we hzve everything crossed!

I also felt like I was going to my period close to test day so hopefully this is a good sign!

Newchances · 20/06/2021 19:19

Hopefully, we have everything crossed !
