Hi all. We're a group of first timers who've been plugging away on the conception boards for some time. The support here is amazing so if you're in a similar boat please jump onboard.

Time to hand hold through treatments and support each other through to becoming the mums we deserve to be 💪🏼🌸🙏🏼

Oh my gosh Otters this is great news - I've been thinking about you this morning and hoping for good news.Amazing!

Jamon · 01/11/2017 09:20

CONGRATULATIONS OTTERS!!! 👏🏼💕🌟 that’s wonderful news - it’s been such a long time since we had a BFP! Did you have an inkling / feel any different?

Skipper good point I’m not actually 100% sure - I think it’s another NSAID like ibuprofen so perhaps check with your GP

InspectorPenguin · 01/11/2017 10:29

Congratulations to Otters! Wonderful news! Enjoy every moment of the excitement Star
Did you feel any different?

Nice Primark haul Kwick 👍
Since we moved house I don't live near any shops anymore so my days of impromptu H&M trips are over which is sad. Sometimes a splurge on disposable clothes is exactly what you need. Hope you've got plenty of keepers!

I can't believe the Bake Off winner was leaked - how stupid!! I don't use Twitter or any other social media so manged to avoid finding out but was a bit indifferent about the efforts last night in the end.
I haven't watched previous series but are they not usually better than that by the final?! The biscuits and bread seemed pretty ordinary for 'star bakers' and I thought some of the show stoppers from the first episode were better than last night.
Maybe I'm being really harsh??

Still off sick and feeling sorry for myself - tonsillitis has now migrated to ear infection. DP had to help me shower this morning before driving me to my scan 🙈

Things didn't improve there either sadly. My smaller follicles haven't grown so no chance of egg collection on Friday as I only have one that is big enough to contain a mature egg.

They're going to re-scan on Friday and see if there's been any movement and the best case is I go for collection on Monday and get between 6-8 eggs.

However, there is a pretty big risk that I'll ovulate over the weekend (because of how far ahead the lead follicle is, and the ovulation-blocking drug I'm on being a weak one compared to Buserelin which is used in standard cycles) which would obviously mean abandoned cycle.

All pretty disappointing. All these scans and time off work and injections and then looking at probable cancellation at the last minute is a bit of a kick in the guts. But I guess it is what it is 😑

On a more positive note I got through eight episodes of Mindhunter yesterday! Thanks for the rec!

planegazer · 01/11/2017 11:19

Good luck kerry 🤞

Hugs inspector xxx

So my amh is 2.9 which is low but not as low as I thought considering I only have 1 follicle per ovary. I’m taking this as a positive.

I’m not fucked yet! 🙌

Kwick I need a primark haul!! Love a good bargain!!

quiet 💐

Hope everyone is doing ok ☺️

QuietTime · 01/11/2017 11:43

Thanks guys

Sorry it wasn't better news penguin - really hope they don't have to cancel, must be so frustrating

Oh my gosh, otters!!!!! Fantastic news! Hope you're doing well Star

MouseLove · 01/11/2017 11:50

Omg otters!!!!! YAY!!!!! We’ve been due a BFP for ages. I’m so happy for you!! 😊😘

Kathrino · 01/11/2017 13:33

Huge congratulations otters, what fantastic news!

kwick · 01/11/2017 18:02

CONGRATULATIONS otter!!!!!!  about bloody time we had a BFP!

inspector I am with you on the GBBO final... very lacklustre
What a fcuker about the cycle, I will keep my 🤞🏼. You being poorly probably has not helped. 

@Pyjamas81 where for art thou?

sk1pper · 01/11/2017 19:16

That’s great news Plane - those remaining follicles are going to keep you going on to your BFP. Definitely keep that wonderful positivity going!

Penguin - damn you’ve been poorly for a while now. Sending a ton of get-well-soon vibes your way. I hope you can get some eggs collected, i can imagine how deflating it would be to have nothing to show for it after all the appointments and scans. Fx for you though 👊

otters2017 · 01/11/2017 20:31

Hi. Thanks for the all well wishes. It hasn't quite sunk in yet and I know that we're not in the clear yet but just want to enjoy every moment as much as possible. I've called the clinic and they've booked us in for an early scan in 3 weeks time. Something to work towards!

plane AMH 2.9 is reassuring despite what the scan says.

inspector agree with you about the bake off leak. I only watched it today so had to stay off social media but it was quite a lack luster final. Sorry you're still feeling rough, hope you get better soon. Good luck for the scan on Friday

kerry how did the iui go?

wingingit yes my first ivf attempt. Well done on getting the ball rolling

kwick what did you get in primark? When is the transfer ?

Hope everyone else is ok xx

Chlo22 · 01/11/2017 20:46

Definitely enjoy it otters! I was so pleased when I read your post this morning, we were definitely way over due a bfp on this thread! Today has been a good day for positive news... A friend posted on FB that they are pg again and baby 1 is only 4 months old! They had an ectopic, 3 rounds of IVF and 2 mcs and ended up falling naturally before the first baby and now this! Just made me think that miracles can and do happen
