Floo that sounds positive re julz story.
I'm hoping your Frostie sticks and also good to know that the next round may not be as bad. The cost, well that a bugger.

You know the answer to that hit after last nights talk about accents you may not do it! Scotland!

julz394 · 05/09/2017 15:05

Fingers crossed for your frostie Floofles! Think positive.

Oh I'm NHS, so very greatful to not have that worry, although I've a horrible feeling we're going to use all our goes and have to pay for a round.
Now I can't say for sure, but you over stimulated and didn't get to Embro transfer it might not fully count as a go. For instance, this is technically my second round, but they didn't count the first round because of what happen and that we didn't get to ET, so I'm still technically on my 'first go' so still have one more if need be.

Yay, I've replied!! I think I've worked out what the problem was - I have the app and it doesn't give you the same option as the desktop version!!! Xx

Julz did you do your frer yesterday? How did you get on?
This 2ww is like waiting for Christmas but also wishing your life away. I just realised we got to September! Shock

Hi ladies, how are those of you in 2ww getting on? Who's testing next? Nervous and excited for you

thegamblersmrs · 07/09/2017 09:57

Hiya chivin! Think we only have 3 in the 2ww just now Mel,cho and julz.

I had my BFP on OTD yesterday. Still feel like af is about to start any minute!

chivintassle · 07/09/2017 13:00

Whoop whoop 🎉 That's great!
Congratulations, so happy for you 😊

Hopingandwishing · 07/09/2017 18:00

Congratulations gamblers! I have a week left to wait-tell me all your tips! Xx

thegamblersmrs · 07/09/2017 18:54

Sorry hoping didn't see you there! No tips at all. I stayed off work as clinic thought it would be too much but was still out and about doing things.

Hopingandwishing · 09/09/2017 13:20

Did anyone experience bleeding in their 2ww? I'm having a mini meltdown as just been to the loo and af has appeared. My clinic is closed til monday and not sure what to do

Whatamuddleduck · 09/09/2017 18:35

Hoping I didn't but the nurses told me that it is really common and not to panic but to still test on the date they gave. I can imagine just how worried you are, it may be absolutely fine but there isn't anything anyone could do either way. When are you due to test?

Hopingandwishing · 09/09/2017 19:49

Thanks duck. Friday is test day, so not too much longer to wait. Think it was the initial shock, hasn't appeared to get heavier so hopefully it's ok. Feel like I've been on an emotional rollercoaster

Whatamuddleduck · 09/09/2017 21:27

My fingers are crossed for you hoping that this is a sticky bean and that the bleed was just it getting comfy. This whole not knowing is just so hard and you are right , such a roller coaster. Roll on test day!

Floofles · 10/09/2017 17:16

Oh hoping I really hope all is fine!
Spotting is pretty standard I think and can be a sign of implantation - although if Fridays test day it might not be that???
Sorry I don't know more!
Have you tested yet or are you waiting?

How are things going for you duck? I can't remember if you got BFP or not? xx

Floofles · 10/09/2017 17:17

@chivin I can't remember where you are either!?

Hopingandwishing · 10/09/2017 19:42

I'm going to wait, I don't want to get a false reading and either crush my hopes or get my hopes up. Only a few days to get through now Smile

Floofles · 11/09/2017 09:37

Oooo you've got such self restraint!
I think I'm going to be a constant tester 😂
Fingers crossed for Friday!

chivintassle · 11/09/2017 17:46

floof I'm out. I had one dominant follie and the others (only a few) way behind, so cancelled cycle. I'm not sure if it's because of my age or different protocol. I queried it, in between crying, with the clinic but they said nothing to do with protocol, mr google disagrees and says starting with pill can suppress ovaries. Hmmm.
I'm now waiting for af and deciding whether to go back to Bath or try this clinic again, or another 😬 Just don't know. There should be independent advise on this.
How are you after your EC? How is your frosty? X

Whatamuddleduck · 11/09/2017 18:39

Hi Floofles, how are you doing? I hope the pneumonia has gone? Did you have a frostie?

I got a BFP (many in fact), 7 week scan tomorrow. I'm finding it really hard to actually think that there might be a bean in there. I'm so used to bad news. Fingers crossed for tomorrow though. It just seems like its gone to well to be true so far. I'm hoping I'll feel more confident if I see a heart beat tomorrow.

Chiv that sounds really tough. This is difficult enough without the clinic making you doubt them. No advice but I hope you find the option that's right for you.

Hopingandwishing · 12/09/2017 07:16

Hope all goes well with your scan today duck, it will be so exciting to see your little bean!
I bought some tests yesterday, now I'm itching to test, but I'm going to stay strong and wait -only 3 days to go

Whatamuddleduck · 12/09/2017 16:45

Thanks hoping. It went well and we saw a little heart beat. I'm absolutely amazed! Fingers crossed for you hoping. Did the bleed stop?

thegamblersmrs · 12/09/2017 17:06

That's great news duck! Is it another internal scan or do we get to have normal people scans now?

Whatamuddleduck · 12/09/2017 17:57

The nurse did apologise, another internal. Slightly freaked out now at the idea of stopping the progesterone! How's you doing gamblers?

Hopingandwishing · 12/09/2017 18:27

Another internal scan-oh my days. So happy you got to see a heart beat and don't worry about stopping the pessaries -your body knows what to do.
Yes the bleed stopped, I think it might have been the pessary irritating my cervix as i read that is common
