@Happinessandrainbows I think she did say she was taking a step back xx

@Happinessandrainbows I was just thinking about her this morning and wondering how she was doing. I think she's on the Facebook group right?

@TheBirdintheCave glad I'm not the only one!
@FfoxRedN oh that makes sense. I think some people choose to step away from internet for at least a bit when they have rainbow pregnancies as to not fuel their anxiety, so if would def make sense. Hopefully she'll be back at some point to update us ☺️

@Happinessandrainbows @TheBirdintheCave yeah I really hope she's back soon 💕 xx

@monsteramunch I can tag her ☺️, hope you're doing ok lovely xx

Hi, I saw this group in the active conversations, is it okay to join? Have been TTC with fertility treatment for a year now, one final go with assisted conception/ovulation induction injections before ivf referral next month. Hope everything is going well for you all x

Hi @Alexis7890 :)

We're about at the same place. I've got one natural cycle left (next month) before IVF starts in April/May. I hope the next one is your lucky month!

@TheBirdintheCave have you got ivf in place? They would send my referral in April which is a 6-12 week wait apparently here but that’s not too bad compared to some places and we are lucky the nhs have been really good to us so far. My new cycle of injections starts today! Thank you, there are some male factor issues as well and I’ve not always responded to the injections so it could be cancelled like the last cycle was. I think I’ve mentally got myself to a place of let’s give it one more shot but expect to be going to ivf. Do you know when your next cycle will start? Hope it is the one for you!

@Alexis7890 Yep, we're all set to go :) I already have a son so we've gone private since my last miscarriage in December and it's been quite fast. I had Strep A a few weeks ago and it's delayed my current cycle by two weeks 🤦🏻‍♀️ I think I'm 2dpo today so still a while to wait and then one more natural cycle before I can start the injections.

Still no AF. Getting a faint positive on an easy@home tonight after a negative digital this morning. My back is v sore..like little bursts of pain? I have no idea what's going on down there 🤷‍♀️ DH is in the loop now 😅 12dpo

@MrsJGrealish can you post the easy at home test? Digitals need much higher levels I think don’t they. Unless it was an ultra early one.
was it easy at home IC that seemed negative this morning too? Or a different IC?

@bringmearainbow it was a one step test I took last night. They say they work with 10iu though but it was negative. Negative weeks indicator this morning..I was so tired I just wanted a yes or no. I went really light headed at dinner tonight so tested with an easy@home and I'm pretty sure it had a faint line. I'll upload it now. DH asked me last night if I was pregnant apparently my boobs look it (really sorry tmi🙈) this back pain is annoying me😢

Ffs forgot to upload.

@bringmearainbow sorry meant to tag @Indianna2006 I'm a bit past myself 😩

@MrsJGrealish 😫😫 I’ve never used easy @ home so have no idea about how reliable they are. But deffo can see something on that.
meh it’s so annoying when you feel like tests give you different things. It makes it very confusing.
an otherwise there so exp aren’t they. Keep paying out for frer so. Your clear blue deff looked like it had a blue line an all but no idea on there sensitivity either

sorry about the backache. Maybe get DH to make you a hot water bottle for bed xx

@Indianna2006 😘 thanks for listening lovely. I know it's barely there. Yes he has already bless him ❤️

@Indianna2006 I bought a vitcoco ear wax removal kit from Amazon on a whim a few weeks ago. It's basically like a fine pencil shaped thing with a camera that links to your iPad so you can see the wax..just imagine if someone could invent something like that to check your uterus 🤣 You could in a ideal world look and see what was happening..possibly not a dragons den idea..cervix is in the way 😂

Hope your keeping well 😘 not long now lovely Xx

@MrsJGrealish I deffo see that on the Easy@Home :) Weeks indicator is 25miu sensitivity so I wouldn't read too much into that not showing up positive yet.

@MrsJGrealish there's deffo a line! Almost similar as mine. Super faint. I'm 10dpo today. Shit. See the pic below. We're in this together. You may also be able to help with my hand 🤣. Fecking cat decided to bite me last night...this morning my middle knuckle has blown up like a balloon...what can I take to get rid of the infection?!
Gargh, the fear is real. xxx
I've added my normal hand too for reference! xxx

@FfoxRedN shit!!
Check your tetanus covered ( a shot of tetanus is good for ten years)
Take an antihistamine
If that swelling doesn't go down you may need antibiotics (flucloxacillin)

@MrsJGrealish yeah I'm heading to hospital this morning it's pretty painful.
Have you done another test with FMU? I know what you mean about your head being all over the place, I've forgotten half of my stuff to bring to work 🤯. Total head fuck xx

@FfoxRedN That's not faint! 😂 Congratulations :) So sorry the cat bit you though, what a little terror ☹️

@MrsJGrealish @FfoxRedN eeeeeeek ladies I see lines I see lines 🤩

I just hope this is a healthy one, if it isn't, that's it and it'll be IVF for us in the summer. Just praying that doesn't happen 🙏🏼 xx

@MrsJGrealish @FfoxRedN I see lines for you both!! 🤩
