IVF Cycle Buddies August/September?

952 replies

meadowlark3 · 02/08/2017 19:21

Anyone starting a cycle this month? I know there's a July/August thread, but seems that they've mostly all started on their cycles. I'm due to start DR tomorrow and if all goes well will have EC at the beginning of September.

Have not shared our IVF journey with too many people in IRL so would love to have a bit of company here. This will be our first go at IVF, so quite nervous at the mo!

Scotslass01 · 10/10/2017 09:00

Awww I'm sorry to hear you are not in a good place hunny. You still haven't had full flow so there is still some hope. I'm thinking about you.
I'm still feeling crampy. I sneezed earlier it it was really sore, felt like something pulling inside xx

Bbyg81 · 10/10/2017 09:03

Scotslass01 Not yet but I really sure it will b here for sure. I didn't feel like that tbh not when I sneezed but cramps yes sounds good Hunni
I took a test it's negative 👎 so I'm sure this hasn't worked xxx

Scotslass01 · 10/10/2017 14:45

Awww I'm really gutted for you. I don't know what to say, you must be so disappointed hunny. Massive hugs xxx

Bbyg81 · 10/10/2017 15:18

Thank you scotslass01 I do have 2 Frosties so I guess that's a lil hope but not sure how long I'm going to have to wait again or if I can do this again it's so hard xx

Scotslass01 · 10/10/2017 15:47

It is such a tough process. It will take you a bit of time to come to terms with this but I have no doubt you will go on and try again. Try and stay focused on why we are doing this to ourselves xxx

Fox23 · 10/10/2017 19:03

Bbyg- I'm so sorry, I'm lost for words. I'm sure you will take your time to digest what has happened, and then try frosties. When I had my ET I asked what will happen if it doesn't work, and she said you have to wait two cycles before you can have FET. You are strong Bbyg- you'll be ok.

Bbyg81 · 10/10/2017 20:02

Thank you both just feel so alone. My OT not helped either like I'm not supposed to be upset said I'm being daft like having 3 job interviews and failing the first and giving up !! How disgusting and disrespectful I'm so angry 😡

Fox23 · 10/10/2017 20:31

Your OT is just probably trying to find words on how to calm and comfort you, and encouraging at the same time. Agree, very very poor choice of words during this difficult time, but hey... we love them because they are not perfect 😉. He means well I'm sure

Fox23 · 11/10/2017 19:29

Bbyg - how are you feeling today lovely?
Scots- what about you? Any aches and pains?

Scotslass01 · 11/10/2017 23:14

Fox Im really bloated round about my tummy area, quite uncomfortably. Im getting we twinges and some strange pulling sensations.
How are you missus?

Bbyg how are you? Been thinking about you. X

My much younger sister had her 12 weeks scan yesterday and i have to admit I'm struggling with it a wee bit. Feel so guilty for feeling like that but it's so hard.

Fox23 · 12/10/2017 16:31

Oh Scots, I know exactly how that feels. My sister in law is 22 weeks... and she is huge.
I'm feeling good actually, if you forget tummy cramps, trips to toilet every 30min, feeling like my bladder has been squashed and mood swings that turn me into dragon.... well, at least I don't suffer from morning sickness.
How do you feel about Saturday? You must be so excited!

Scotslass01 · 12/10/2017 16:42

Oh man that doesn't sound like much fun.
A mix of dreading it and excited. At the moment I'm blissfully unaware and the thought of seeing another bfn is filling me with total dread xx

Fox23 · 12/10/2017 18:26

Do you think you will be able to resist? Or have an early peek?
As my test day was Wednesday, I figured, that if I checked Tuesday pm, at least that would give me time to stomach the reality over night, before going to work. Thats me, I couldn't resist.😀
Please keep me updated!

meadowlark3 · 12/10/2017 18:38

Hi ladies, just popping in to say hello. Scots, good luck with your test Saturday. Fox, have you had a scan yet? bby, how are you getting on?

Sending you all good thoughts. Xx

Hello ladies

Fox now early testing I will wait till the morning. I am actually totally dreading it. I'm so scared.

Meadow thank you hunny. Nice to see hear from you. I hope you are ok.

Fox23 · 13/10/2017 17:12

Afternoon girls,
Meadow- great to hear from you! How are things with you?
My scan in not till 23rd, so still just over a week to go. I'm so scared every day to do anything that can cause any harm. I really can't wait for the scan, that hopefully will be good.
Scots- today is the scariest day for you! Don't know how you will sleep, that's why I gave in. But I'm proud of you that you will wait. I'm sure you will have your answer before sunrise 😲 Please, please, let me know!!

Scotslass01 · 13/10/2017 17:26

How exciting Fox. Mind keep us posted.
I think it's more out of fear and dread I'm not giving in if I'm honest. I don't think I will sleep a wink. I will. X

Scotslass01 · 14/10/2017 09:57

Omg omg omg I've only just gone and got a BFP!!! I am in total shock!! I can't believe it.

meadowlark3 · 14/10/2017 10:57
