Heat pad on tummy isn't recommended during TWW though but you can have it on lower back 😉

Smith hope you get some good news soon!

I'm sooooo crampy today, it feels like my period is imminent but I'm only 8 dpo and my luteal phase is usually 13 days long.

So got the call it's a bfp!!! Apparently the numbers are good and high!! I think I'm still in shock!!

Big congrats!! I had a strong feeling it would be! Didn't think all those pregnancy tests would be wrong!

Woohoo!! That's amazing news congratulations!! X

Yay that's amazing @Smithguy86 I've kept checking back throughout the day to see if any news
Congratulations!! Have they booked your viability scan?

Thanks everyone I still can't believe it! Yea pickle I have the scan on the 7th of March so three weeks away! I want to tell everyone lol

I also got my positive (my clinic doesn't do blood tests so I used four different brands of stick just to make sure). I've had a few days for it to sink in, and am a wee bit terrified. I have a scan booked in two and a half weeks, and hopefully I'll be able to relax a bit after that... This is my first BFP!

Forgot to say congratulations Smith!

Ahhhhhhhh Late that is such wonderful news!!! Huge congratulations sweetie! Yay 😀

Congratulations late brilliant news! I have to admit that I probably done around 30 tests lol I became a little obsessed!!

Amazing news Latenightreader! Congrats! A wee bit terrified is normal, I think?!

Congratulations both 🎉 @Latenightreader and @Smithguy86

late coming out of hibernation to wish you congratulations. This is fabulous news.
And congrats to you smith. From reading back and early positive testing - am not surprised.
Valentine's Day celebrations all round

@TinyPaws sorry to hear about kitty - hope they get well soon.

@Mandy002 I am pleased to hear the spotting has stopped 🤞🏼

@Smithguy86 congratulations!!

@Latenightreader what wonderful news!!! Well done!

I'm spotting again! I'm thinking this is probably not a good sign 😬😢

Oh Mandy sorry to hear this- phone the clinic tomorrow morning. I don't know about fet at all but why was the procedure planned so long after your cycle?

smith congrats for your bfp!

late darling girl, congratulations!!! It’s been a long old road and I understand exactly how you’re feeling! Of course you’re terrified, I am too, every day! But just take each day at a time, and enjoy it as much as you can!

@pickle162 thanks I've already emailed them again. FET planned for then because with my job I can only be off at certain points in the year and I'm going abroad. I've been looking at the dreaded GOOGLE and it seems lots of people have had bleeding on progynova so fingers crossed it's not all coming away as at the minute it is only spotting.

The cat is much better, I took her back to the vets and they put her on a course of antibiotics along with the anti-inflammatories already recommended. She's allowed out again so no more litter tray to deal with, yay. She's also become super affectionate the last couple of days, but only with me.

Still having lots of cramping but they aren't as sharp as my usual period cramps. I'm 10 days into the 2WW and starting to get really tempted to do an early test, the trigger should be well out of my system by now. Not looking forward to handling the disappointment if it's negative though.

Congrats late and smith super news xxxx

Glad your kitty is doing a bit better tiny

Mandy* things still going ok with you?

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend

Hey everyone, I've been AWOL for a while (trying unsuccessfully to distract myself from the waiting) but started buserelin injections last Sun ready for first FET (after fresh transfer had to be abandoned due to OHSS).

Looks like I've missed a lot but many congrats to all of you with BFPs, kwick so delighted to read that you have a positive result, hope all is going well for you, and Stork, Smith, Late and anyone else I've missed. Will try and catch up with the news.

I'm stressing about AF, which is due Sun theoretically (28 days) but which has been quite irregular since starting treatment. I've just realised clinic only gave me 22 doses of buserelin so if I don't get AF Sun or Mon then I won't have enough to last until the lining scan. Argh

@pickle162 currently awaiting appointment to sign documentation for FET at clinic on Tuesday and FET scheduled for Thursday. Still bleeding a little at the moment. I'm gonna ask them if we can do a scan on Tuesday just to check what's going on as I would hate to waste embryos by putting them back when the lining is starting to shed though I have read online that if it's too thick it can shed the excess. Maybe that's why the clinic don't seem overly bothered. I'm just totally confused I can't see how bleeding in any way can be ok but I'm sure they've seen it all. Hope everyone else are having a much more straightforward time of it than this....wherever you are in your journeys.

Cracked and took a FRER this morning (12 dpo), negative. :(
