Climb abourd donkeys 😂

@clolo interesting. They’ve told me I’ll be on 150/225 on alternating days, scanned every two days.

@paintfairy yes, it's ARGC in London, expensive but so so much better than my first clinic in Hampshire

@clolo bless you hun, September round the corner tho so it's getting closer! ♥️
@Motherofkittens28 I remember your debacle with the first clinic, so pleased that this one was good 😊

@Motherofkittens28 what was the 1stclinic you were at?

Thinking of you @Sunbird24 x

@MIW01 Wessex Fertility in Southampton. I had two abysmal rounds with them and they told me I would need to use an egg donor. Now here I am naturally pregnant!

@Motherofkittens28 ah yes I think I remember now. I originally went to complete fertility in Southampton for my HyCoSy and I remember we wondered if we had gone to the same clinic. I am sorry you had that experience. I have to be honest. I have been advised by my acupuncturist to prepare myself for this possibility with the levels I have and I was really upset at first but I think I've got my head round it now. And as you have proven! These low AMH levels don't mean a jot when it comes to TTC naturally!

@MIW01 it's a hard thing to come to terms with, I hadn't really got there but I was prepared as a last resort if it was our only chance to have a baby.

I’ve got to scan again in a week - both my embryos implanted but only one still has a heartbeat and I’m 7+6 but it’s only measuring 6+1

@Sunbird24 I posted on the other group but didn't want to read and run on here! I really hope the other embryo can catch up, so sorry to hear there was no heartbeat with the other. I hope you're doing ok x

@Sunbird24 sorry to hear you’ve got another week to wait for definitive news, how are you feeling? There is a chance that the embryo with the heartbeat might catch up, right? I’m sorry I don’t know much about measurements at this point. Have been thinking of you x

@Sunbird24 I read (no idea how true it is) and it was on a fertility clinic thing- that losing one, actually takes it out of the other. So the measuring less would make sense? Fingers crossed it carries on fighting for you.
@becarefuloutthere good luck tomorrow!

Keeping everything crossed for you @Sunbird24 that the other 1 is OK! 🤞

Sorry that it doesnt look clear for you yet @sunbird24 ♥️

Hopefully baby catches up and heartbeat stays strong xxx

Will be thinking of you

Thank you hun @paintfairy ♥️

@Sunbird24 keeping everything crossed for you that your little one catches up and stays strong! Sending lots of love 💕

@Sunbird24 keeping everything crossed for you that it catches up and hopefully this week goes quickly for you. This ttc process is so full of waiting, it really sucks!

@Motherofkittens28 ooh I've not heard of killer cells before that's a new one!

@MIW01 glad everything's getting started for you

@Sunbird24 sorry about your 2nd embryo, I have everything crossed for the other little one!

@becarefuloutthere how did your scan go?

@Marvellouslymadmum heya, how are you? It wasn't quite to plan as I was still ivf mode and turned up with an empty bladder 🤦🏾‍♀️ couldn't find the letter so didn't have the reminder to go with a full one so he couldn't see anything. Gave me 30 mins to fill it up n I downed 7 cups of water and then was sick 🙄 but he was able to measure the head and show me arms, legs and heartbeat, got to hear it for a sec too! But he couldn't do the other measurements or print any pics so he said go eat, walk about and drink some more so I did and got called bk in after another 30 mins. He still wasn't happy with the amount that was in my bladder so rebooked me for next week so going again Thursday.

@becarefuloutthere I'm ok thanks just trying to wait patiently for my appointment! Ahh I hate the full bladder scans, I always end up with too much so when they press on it I feel like I'm going to wee myself 😂 then they tell you to go empty half of it, which is no easy thing to do! Glad you got to see baby though and now you get an extra scan too!

@MIW01 how are you getting on with your meds? Hope all going ok!

@becarefuloutthere glad you got to see some of the baby even though it didn’t quite go as planned! Hopefully next week will be better!

@Marvellouslymadmum it's a thing where your immune cells attack the sperm or embryo so causes problems getting or staying pregnant I think. My clinic is heavily into immune testing and then treating any issues. I had to have immune bloods sent to Chicago for testing at a cost of £800! But luckily this was my only issue. If you have other immune issues show up they put you on a drip at a cost of £2.5k a time!

@Marvellouslymadmum bless you, the wait is a killer isn't it! Lol I was so annoyed with myself for forgetting but I do get an extra scan now so silver linings eh!
@crazycatlady1981 thank you hun, hope you're doing ok?
@Motherofkittens28 wow never heard of that either! Hope you're getting on well?
