Apologies for those I have forgot to tag - please add yourself :)

@Kelb79
How are you feeling I was ameant to be starting my ivf journey myself but my friend had other plans for me, you will get your rainbow girl.

@PeanuttyButter ❤️❤️❤️

@Babyghirl im fully on that emotional rollercoaster! I think I’m more anxious than excited tbh - I know the odds are against us and it’s such a lot of money - the guilt is awful!!! Trying to stay positive as much as I can.
Baseline scan in 2 weeks then, all being well, stims start straight after that!! 😳😳😳

@Kelb79
I'm rooting for you, and will have you in my thoughts and prayers. Even if your not in to all that my sis is doing the novena 9 days in a row I will get her to pray for you.xx

Please these beautiful bubba’s are growing well 💗

@Kelb79 I have everything crossed for you.

I am okay thank you 😊 plodding along!

Thanks lovelies ❤️❤️❤️
All prayers and positive vibes are very very gratefully received 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

@Kelb79 we’re all right behind you!

@Kelb79 we send you all the love!

I'm off on my holidays now so nice relax. AF due next week unless something happens. Got tests with me to check x

Well girls I'm past the 12 week mark according to my scan last monda when I was 10+5 I am 12+2 today baby still going strong today, still nervous thou but I expected that to happen with everything I have been through, got another scan with epu on Monday at 8.10 got my first midwife app on the 28th, still getting the odd cramp but have read everything starting to move up and out of pelvic area now so will feel the pulling x

@Babyghirl thats amazing news 💖I’m so pleased for you!
Yes cramping is normal. I’m 20+5 today and still getting mild cramps occasionally. As long as there’s no blood they’re nothing to worry about. Xx

@Angelmama1121
No bleeding thank god baby had its hand up to its mouth today on the scan lol, girl in work give me a quick two second one to check heartbeating her and another girl I have known 20 years where crying, just hoping it all goes well never got this far before. So that's got to be something.

Omg yours seems to be flying in can't believe your at the half way mark already. So abit of mild cramping is norm thank you for reassuring me xx

@Babyghirl i know! I can’t believe it either. We have our anatomy scan Tuesday. It was meant to be Monday gone but because we all tested positive for covid the week before they rearranged it.

I’m so pleased you got to see your little one again. 💖 seeing them on screen is amazing isn’t it.

Hello, how are everyone including our OHs?
@Angelmama1121 I hope it all goes well 🥰
@Babyghirl seeing them move about is incredible isn’t it. I hope you are okay.

An odd time for me at the moment, before I start I am absolutely not pregnant (not possible) have all the symptoms; cravings, hot, nipples sore etc just when your body couldn’t be any crueler. Hopefully it won’t last 😂 and wish my AF would get her skates on!

anyone else used home bargains tests?

on holiday and been drinking so been doing the odd test just to double check. i've done two of the HB tests and as soon as the dye ran the test line came up but then as it's settled the line disappears and that's happened on two out the 3 i've done.

not sure if there any good or not x

@Izzyboo1234
Class seeing them move never seen it before.

@Bubbles1995
Never used them myself, but hoping you about to get your bfp girl.

Well girls scan today brought forward another day so now 12+6 so main scam next Tuesday and if all goes well can tell the family's, my mum thinks we r ready to start r ivf so will be a shock for her lol.

@Babyghirl thank you. gorgeous scan. bless your mum!

@Bubbles1995 could you try a different test? I have taken lots of different kinds but not those in particular

@Babyghirl lovely scan :D congratulations xx

@Kelb79 sending love and strength for your ivf cycle! When does the stims start?

@Annny27 where I am there's no pharmacies or anything so it's I don't think I can at the minute x

@Bubbles1995 😵‍💫😵‍💫 what a head f@£k!!! 🫣 what happened with the other tests?? Any lines? Can you get to a pharmacy and get a better test?? Fingers crossed for you 🙏🏼🙏🏼

@Babyghirl epic!! ❤️❤️ I don’t know how you’ve kept it secret!! 🫣

@Annny27 i come off the pill on the 29th and have a baseline scan and bloods on the 1st, as long as I have a bleed then and the scan is cool I’ll be starting stims on the 3rd…. 12 days!!! 😳😳😳 wtf??!!
Then I have scans and bloods here on the 6th and 8th then (as long as it’s all going to plan…) I fly to Spain on the 10th for retrieval between 11-16th 😳😳😳 it’s insane that it’s all happened so fast!!!
if we get any viable embryos transfer can happen from mid/late august - we’re doing PGT-A testing so they get frozen and the tests take up to 20 days!

my head is spinning with it all tbh!! 😵‍💫😵‍💫

@Kelb79 we're gonna go on the hunt for one see what we can find. all of them bar one went to show the second line and after it settled went and one this morning has left the faintest of faintest line. so not sure. we shall see. AF is due tomorrow xx

@Babyghirl oh lovely your scan pic made me cry happy tears - how amazing!

@Kelb79 ahh that is moving fast, so excited for you!

@Bubbles1995 i hope you find one 🤞

Even though I knew I couldn’t be, I did a test 😂why you ask, no idea!!! I am not getting into this as seeing the BFN was heartbreaking. I have set myself the goal once my AF has returned I won’t test until day 35/36 as if my normal cycles return, AF would have arrived by that point!

so. out of the whole area we're in the nearest chemist is about 45 min drive away. none of the local stores stock pregnancy tests just condoms!!! so looks like i'm waiting till i'm home unless af shows😫

@Bubbles1995 thus is torture 😩 I’m not sure where you are but could you get an Amazon delivery? They’re all over the world xx

Just catching up on this thread ladies. Currently away myself, feeling rotten haha
Don't like this new Mumsnet interface, feel like it doesn't work properly!

So exciting that the IVF is imminent @Kelb79 hope it all goes smoothly

Can't believe you haven't told your mum @Babyghirl I was bursting!!

Sounds promising @Bubbles1995 hope this is your BFP!!
