Hi, I was wondering if anyone is about to start IVF. Would be good to go through this journey with someone/people. Share experiences etc.

Kjackson I didn't have any implantation bleeding. So stay positive x

Ok cool, it's so hard to know if it's worked or not! X

Well I got an equally faint bfp on a first response this morning but a negative on a clear blue digi. Plus cramps like AF Aus on the way. Pretty sure this is a chemical - have emailed my clinic to ask if I can come in for a beta.

Kjackson02 · 16/03/2018 08:43

Has anyone reached the half way point of the tww and felt very emotional as your not sure if it has worked or not?

PonyPals · 16/03/2018 08:45

Yep. I'm there today Confused

TryingToStayRational · 16/03/2018 08:51

Me too. I’m not feeling v hopeful tbh, but struggling to sleep as the uncertainty is playing on my mind. Would rather just know it hasn’t worked and find out when we can try again. 6dp5dt today and really feel like AF is on the way.

Kjackson02 · 16/03/2018 09:26

Are any of you going to test earlier?

PonyPals · 16/03/2018 10:08

6 days today and mean to test on Friday so might text a day or two earlier

TryingToStayRational · 16/03/2018 10:17

I’ve been testing already. I know it’s early but I’ve got a load of internet cheapies with short dates so thought I’d use them up. Nothing so far but at least I know the trigger is out of my system. I’m just gonna test each day and see what happens.

PonyPals · 16/03/2018 10:21

Just realised my last post didn't make much sense Confused
I think I will test a couple of days earlier. If I could cope with a negative result, I would start testing now!

Kjackson02 · 16/03/2018 11:41

@PonyPals I'm meant to test next Friday as well today is 5 days isn't it?

Kjackson02 · 16/03/2018 11:44

I don't know whether to test or wait!

Snowdayfet · 16/03/2018 15:14

Just got my results back from clinic. My hcg is only 3 which they think means early days but I know I’ve been getting bfps for 3 days now so I think my hcg is falling rather than rising. So I think it’s 99.99% confirmed as a chemical - I’m out of this round! Sad

TryingToStayRational · 16/03/2018 16:40

Hope somehow things turn out ok for you, Snowday. Thinking of you Flowers

Snowdayfet · 16/03/2018 17:33

Thanks rational. I’m afraid that’s it for me this round - but I still have some frozen embryos left so I’ll just figure out when to go again.

Will be cheering for you guys to get your bfps though! Keeping everything crossed x

Hi Snow

Really sad to read your update Sad

I know it looks to you as bad news and you want to be able to accept it .

As trying said I'm really hoping that things will still work out . Keeping my fingers tightly crossed
Xxx

Snowdayfet · 17/03/2018 06:25

Thanks herewego. I’m ok. Sad and disappointed but I have frozen embryos so I can have another go. Onwards! Wishing you all the best for the future too.

Sibbo84 · 17/03/2018 11:13

Hey ladies!
Hope your all well Smile
Me and my husband are about to start our first cycle of IVF after trying to get pregnant for a year and a half. Would be good to chat to people going through it too as it's all a little daunting!

Leah2018 · 17/03/2018 21:13

Fingers crossed for you ladies on your 2ww, are you trying to keep busy to pass the days?

Sorry to hear that snow it must be terrible but I do hope that there is still some hope for you on this round xx

Welcome sibbo84 I found this group really helpful so I am sure you will too.
When are you due to start? Do you know what meds you are on?
I have my third scan on Monday and if all goes to plan egg collection wed/thurs
Xx

Kjackson02 · 18/03/2018 13:01

How is everyone getting on with the tww? Test say Friday and I really hope for positive outcome, for anyone resting this week I hope for positive outcomes for you all xx

TryingToStayRational · 18/03/2018 13:41

Welcome sibbo!

kjackson My OTD is thurs. Been testing daily since 4dp5dt and all bfn, so am not hopeful. I know it’s still too early to be sure. I’m ok tho, we are fortunate to have 2 more attempts.

PonyPals · 18/03/2018 13:48

I'm on 7dp5dt and it's bfn... not holding out much hope.

Kjackson02 · 18/03/2018 13:56

@PonyPals have you been testing then? X

Kjackson02 · 18/03/2018 14:00

@PonyPals don't be down, I read that it would be too early for us to take a test as hcg has only just started being released Tuesday would be the earliest I have read- have you read this

Evening Ladies!

How is everybody doing?

Had another scan today and were all good to go with egg collection on Wednesday afternoon... feeling quite nervous and excited at the same time!
