I'm 1dp5dt and starting to wonder how I'm going to survive the 2ww. OTD is 20 June which is 14dp5dt, no way I'm waiting that long so trying to decide when I will test. Anyone else in same boat at the moment and want to join so we can try to stay sane together?

Just took another test (had to know one way or the other) and it still says pregnant 1-2 which is a shock but I don't quite believe it. The levels could still be detectable from if I was pregnant yesterday. I had a miscarriage a few months ago from a natural conception and my breasts changing to normal were the first indicator which has just happened again. So I'm no wiser anyway but not completely ruled out I suppose (but also not hopeful at all).

Oh shaun your post reduced me to tears. I can't imagine the cruelty of going through that, do you think it's definitely over. Just can't comprehend what that must feel like. I'm so so sorry. Why is life so cruel Flowers
How many embryos do you have left? It's a difficult decision about the clinic as I'm not sure how personalised the treatment is. But I guess while you have embryos you might as well use them up?
I hope you managed to somehow enjoy your girl's night out. Have you confided in anyone? We've told family and a few close friends and find it quite helpful. They don't quite get it but at least it stops them asking when we're having another!
My coordinator is at the clinic. Did you pay extra to have a UK person? I find mine very useful but do sometimes think they just give you what you want. For example I have asked for steroids and aspirin for next time because you had them, and she is going to check with Dr Frank!
As for me, my AF started yesterday at 12dp5dt, so didn't make it to OTD. Quite relieved for the closure to be honest. I did a frer this morning to be absolutely sure and then didn't do my pessaries. So I'm done. Got really sad looking at the picture of my embryo inside me. But actually doing surprisingly OK. I'm very aware it was only our first attempt so chances of success were low. I'm 32 next week, so maybe have false hope that time is still on my side...
Do you mind me asking about defrosting process, did you ever lose an embryo because it didn't defrost? I have four left, but not sure that this translates into four more attempts...
I'm just so sad for you shaun, sending hugs and hope you can muster the energy for another round. Maybe we can go shopping together in Brno as retail therapy!

Oh and my coordinator said I can do fet on next period. That seems so soon. I'm torn between getting on with it and being sure my body is actually ready...

User, how are you feeling now? How many days past transfer are you? I think I'd be very hopeful in your position. You've sadly joined an unlucky thread but I have everything crossed that your bfp will continue.

Thanks Scottish girl. I'm 8dp5dt. I'm still not too hopeful. Ive got lots of funny constipation/period cramps but not sure if that is caused by the progesterone I'm taking at night. Wow, you're only 32, that's great and gives you plenty of time. No doubt it won't be long for you. I think there's a very good chance with frozen eggs too. Sorry, hope I didn't hijack your thread. I was feeling so down earlier and husband is away. So many stressful things going on at once. Shaunt- hope you're feeling ok. good luck for the next cycle!

I don't think your trigger would still be registering. Mild cramps are a good sign! My husband was away during 2ww, it was tough but also very odd as I had grieved and got over it by the time he got home! Good luck but I reckon a whispered congratulations x

Aw thanks. That's so nice. I juust read that a lot of my symptoms like changing boob size can be down to the crinone gel I'm taking. This is a great relief coz I've been trying to predict what's happening based on my body and all the changing symptoms so now I'm just going to forget about symptom spotting and wait for thurs. did yet get bloating on the progesterone gel? I look about 4 months pregnant at mo or very fat all of a sudden. v hard to disguise in this hot weather!
