@Sunbird24 how many dpt are you? Look at the comparison between the first and last in that pic, it’s getting stronger, keep your chin up! When is OTD?

Sunbird24 · 14/07/2021 11:32

9dp5dt @polejunkie, OTD is Monday so I know it’s still early, just can’t help worrying Confused

polejunkie · 14/07/2021 11:34

@Sunbird24 I know the feeling, hang in there, it’s looking good x

MIW01 · 14/07/2021 11:59

Currently sat waiting for my AMH blood test in Worthing Pathology and it is absolute madness! Anticipating I'll be here for a looooong while 🙄

becarefuloutthere · 14/07/2021 12:15

@polejunkie yay 👏🏾 so pleased for you!! I said stay in the bubble and don't test and it paid off! Thanks for the Insta ad too, I thought it must be you with all that pole action 😎
@crazycatlady1981 good luck for tomorrow hun!! 🤞🏾
@Sjhigs lovely line progression! You def did more than me 😂
@Annny27 I thought it was august for mother of kittens but could be wrong!
@Theawkwardblonde are you seriously still poas at 16 weeks?! 😂 that's hilarious 🤣
@MIW01 oh honey, you're not having a good time at all! When will you hear bk about your dismissal appeal?
@Sunbird24 lovely to have progression hun! And the way you're thinking is defo right, no point comparing bk.
@CreativeThinkerTequilaDrinker thank you honey! 💕 you can complain to PALS if you feel you need to. Hope you hear soon!

Just got my call back my bloods yesterday were 221.4 which is good so I can content myself now till Monday x

MIW01 · 14/07/2021 13:03

Thanks @becarefuloutthere wprk and fertility are jist the tip of the iceberg unfortunately but at least with the work situation the worst has already happened. Now it's just about not letting them get away with it. I'm drafting my appeals letter now. Will probably be a couple of weeks after I've sent it before I hear anything.

crazycatlady1981 · 14/07/2021 14:18

Thanks everyone!! Trying to keep myself super busy today so I don’t think about it too much!! 😬

@Sunbird24 great progression!! 💕 I’m with Care too, although through NHS at the moment, but it’s good to know the frozen costs are quite reasonable! 😊

@MIW01 the transfer is really quite quick so as long as you can drive to your clinic within a reasonable time from Longleat, you won’t have to cancel anything and you can just carry on with your day afterwards!! Sorry your work situation is so awful! Sending lots of love 💕 hope you get your AMH test done soon!

@Annny27 I think mother of kittens was getting married this month!! Not sure of the date though!

@Sjhigs ooh that’s good news on the bloods!! 🎉 😊

Theawkwardblonde · 14/07/2021 15:30

@becarefuloutthere yep! I think it's inbuilt on me to just pee on sucks now. Husband went mad when I showed him my massive collection of used tests 🤦🏼‍♀️ I'm not a hoarder but seriously need to get rid and start believing it's happening.

So I think I may have gotten myself confused . . . Is the eggs or embryos they freeze (if they can) from your 1st round? I'm with NHS.

Juno231 · 14/07/2021 17:16

@MIW01 embryos!

becarefuloutthere · 14/07/2021 17:22

@MIW01 I'm glad you're on top of it! Best of luck hun x
@Sjhigs nice one on the bloods! I'm going to get mine taken on Saturday.
@crazycatlady1981 I think you're right re mother of kittens, we need to get on Insta or fb so we can see her pics!
@Theawkwardblonde haha I think you do honey, it's def happening! Ru finding out the sex?
@clolo thanks! And yes you're right, you've inadvertently volunteered now 😉 unless anyone else puts their hand up?!
@Juno231 is spot on, defo embryos @MIW01

MIW01 · 14/07/2021 17:52

Thanks @Juno231 & @becarefuloutthere got my wires crossed then. That is bothersome as means we're relying on fiancée's shit sperm! 🤣

becarefuloutthere · 14/07/2021 17:59

@MIW01 they'll use icsi so they'll pick a gooden! 👍🏾

Busy day here in Tofu towers- after 4 days ttc in a row and my ovulation kits and temps telling me that it's now the tww- I had a healthy amount of ewcm today so...day 5 TTC where both of us were bringing B game at best 😂

We were also watching my best friends child (they had a funeral today and no other childcare booked up) so we got a great glimpse of parenthood and the relentless snacking habits of a toddler!

Congrats @polejunkie @sjhigs! So pleased for you both!

Sjhigs · 14/07/2021 19:32

@Tofu35 best of luck 💕💕💕

Annny27 · 14/07/2021 23:12

@crazycatlady1981 best of luck for testing!!

MargotChateau · 15/07/2021 00:30

Joining the bus, 38 ttc with endo low ovarian reserve and starting ivf in a few months 🚌 👋

Sjhigs · 15/07/2021 07:01

@MargotChateau welcome to crazy town 💕

crazycatlady1981 · 15/07/2021 07:24

Morning ladies! Did a frer this morning and as predicted, it was whiter than white! 😭 Feeling ok, but I think DH was more optimistic than me so he was quite upset at the result! Gona phone the clinic today and ask if I can stop the progesterone now even though it’s not otd yet. 🤞🏻

polejunkie · 15/07/2021 07:34

@crazycatlady1981 so sorry to read this, definitely see what the clinic say about stopping progesterone - I know it’s tough but those Frosties are ready and waiting when you are, lots of love xxx

Sjhigs · 15/07/2021 07:35

@crazycatlady1981 aww I'm so sorry was really hoping for some good news this morning. They'll maybe want to check your bloods first what did you test with? Xx

Sunbird24 · 15/07/2021 07:44

So sorry @crazycatlady1981, really hoped for a line for you.
