We have relocated from the conception board where we were previously chatting under the thread 'ttc for 10 months or more'. A lot of us are now long term ttc-ers and are going through infertility treatment or looking to take steps in this direction so we feel this might be a more suitable home for us!

Feel free to stop by and say hi and hopefully we can share the journey together and make it a little easier along the way!

Oh FFS. I'm doing another FRER from a different batch. So confusing!!

I think it looks hopeful.

lucieloos · 18/09/2016 12:56

Ahhh I thought you might get that banana! Well you're not out yet. See what happens tomorrow. Wishing you lots of luck. Do you definitely have the first response early result tests and not the one step?

Yep definitely the Early Result. And still coming up negative with a different batch!!!

MrsRen · 18/09/2016 16:11

Fingers crossed for tomorrow Banana xx

loopylou1984 · 18/09/2016 17:18

Banana - that's so weird. When did a clear blue digi ever pick up more than a FRER?!

bananafish81 · 18/09/2016 17:24

Clearblue Fertility Monitor also coming up positive. That's 25iu I think. FRER still only a squinter Confused

Hello ladies - just checking in!

I'm on night shifts all weekend (living the dream)!

Looks like you've all been busy! I've not got a clue on what's more sensitive etc but that's a fab picture of a digi test! I'm a great believer in good things come to those who wait (even if the wait is bloody agonising!)!

Hope you all have a fab weekend x

loopylou1984 · 18/09/2016 18:47

Where did you get the FRERs from? I think you have some dodgy ones there.
What time will you get your results tomorrow? Xx

bananafish81 · 18/09/2016 18:51

Two different batches!

Used ones I bought from Boots ages ago that I dug out of the cupboard. Then today's was from Superdrug bought this morning. So must be different batches.

Clearblue is saying one thing, FRER is saying otherwise, it's only a squinter Confused

Banana you are a medical mystery!
I suppose it's possible to be so unlucky as to get two separate dodgy batches....

See what happens with your blood test and if results are high try another FRER???

bananafish81 · 18/09/2016 19:55

My consultant said everything about my case has been paradoxical - he's never seen anyone have their AMH go from 1.5 to 62.2 in the space of 8 months. And I'm the first person he's ever had to do a full round of stims with EC just to do a FET. So it wouldn't surprise me if I was able to break other aspects of the system?!!! Confused

maplebaby · 18/09/2016 22:07

Goodness banana! I have my fingers tightly crossed for tomorrow's bloods!

I can see the line Mrs!

No AF yet for me - Just want it to hurry up so I can get started on my next IUI and the stabbings!

loopylou1984 · 19/09/2016 07:54

But it's literally impossible that a CB digi would pick up something a FRER would t when it's less sensitive! What time are your tests and results today? I'll be looking out for your post from my desk!

bananafish81 · 19/09/2016 07:57

FRER is getting darker - proper line today

Going for bloods in an hour or so - will let you know when I know 🙏

lucieloos · 19/09/2016 08:24

Woohoo! Keeping everything crossed for you banana. Keep us posted!

Good luck Banana! Everything crossed for you today.

Paige43 · 19/09/2016 08:35

Banana good luck for the results. This cycle is really putting you through it. Fingers crossed xx

maplebaby · 19/09/2016 08:39

Good luck banana darker frer sounds promising!!

MrsRen · 19/09/2016 08:49

Sounding more and more promising Banana! Fingers crossed for you xx

loopylou1984 · 19/09/2016 08:52

Good luck lovely. Xx

bananafish81 · 19/09/2016 13:52

It's doubled! Still low obvs. Only 33. Wasn't going to be much higher given where it was on Sat. But out of 'equivocal' and into 'pregnant'. At least something has tried to implant - and hopefully just a late implanter and a lazy bastard who was wandering around aimlessly before it found somewhere to get comfy. Go back on Friday for a repeat 🙏

Paige43 · 19/09/2016 14:02

That's great news Banana! Let's hope.it keeps doubling and the little one has settled.

Brenna24 · 19/09/2016 14:27

Grin great news. Sounds like he or she just fancied a wee float around before they settled in. I hope things keep going well from here on in.
