Keeping everything crossed for you becky, hopefully your clinic might be able to give you some answers.

Hope everyone's doing ok. I feel like time is moving slower than it ever has done before! Will be 7 weeks tomorrow. Still have symptoms and no bleeding, but I have no idea how I'm going to hold on until the 12 week scan (fingers crossed that I make it that far of course). Still obviously delighted at how it has gone so far, but terrified of MC again.

swim we have decided to pay for a 9/10 week one for peace of mind. Would you not consider doing this just to keep you at ease? I’d already decided this before I got the two lines 😂 xx

Good luck Becky.

Currently sitting in the waiting room for my baseline scan.

Liverpool19 · 29/03/2018 11:52

Good luck winnie xx

swimchick1980 · 29/03/2018 13:05

Liverpool, my scan at the clinic is 8+5 so probably not. Plus we have a massive credit card bill and I'm self employed so won't get much pay while I'm off, so eBay single penny counts.

swimchick1980 · 29/03/2018 13:05

Every not eBay!!

Liverpool19 · 29/03/2018 13:46

swim oh yeah I understand every penny defiantly counts then. I’m lucky I will get 6 months full pay.
Credit cards are the work of the devil though 😂 xx

Congratulations Becky. Might the test be fainter because the urine was more dilute?

Swimchick, hope you're managing alright. Two more weeks until your scan and having symptoms sounds reassuring.

Jane, official test day for me was yesterday, still positive, hurrah. On the callback list from my clinic for next steps.

Liverpool, if everything is alright at my 6 week scan I'll probably also do one at 9-10 weeks, as the anxiety is high! how much do you reckon they cost?

becky114 · 29/03/2018 18:38

@wombats one lady on a different forum said that it may have been affected by the fact that I went to the toilet at 2.30am and then did the test at 6.30am? I will know for definite by this time tomorrow xxx

Liverpool19 · 29/03/2018 19:53

wombats my hospital does them for £45 and there are a few clinics local to me that also do them for around that price. For peace of mind it’s 100% worth it I feel. Xx

Liverpool19 · 29/03/2018 19:54

That makes sense becky I woke up at 2 and wanted to go the toilet but I made myself go back asleep and woke at half 5 and done it then 😂 I was scared to go for 2 wees. Fingers crossed for in the morning. Xx

Winnie56 · 29/03/2018 20:26

I went to my baseline scan today and they said I'm ready to start injecting tomorrow. Booked in for a scan and bloods on Wednesday, Friday and then the Monday 9th to keep an eye on things.
They seem to think I may have polycystic ovary syndrome and even though my day 21 tests show that I ovulated that month I probably don't every month and it's kind of been lucky or unlucky depending on how you look at it that when they tested I showed I had.

becky114 · 29/03/2018 20:49

@Winnie56 good luck Hun, what injections will you be starting with? Suprecur? Xxx

Winnie56 · 29/03/2018 20:55

Gonal f at 150ml for 3 days then down to 112.5 . Then cetrotide.

How you feeling about test day tomorrow?

Liverpool19 · 29/03/2018 21:18

Good luck wombats you will fine! I had cetrotide not gona lie it’s was the worst for me. Always stung going in 😭 soon be over for you.

@Winnie56 I'm very nervous, hoping I sleep 😴 xxx

Liverpool19 · 29/03/2018 21:36

Sorry I should of wrote good luck winnie!! I’m loosing it! Xx

Liverpool19 · 30/03/2018 05:35

becky everything ok?
It’s official for me. I can’t even believe it.
Xx

becky114 · 30/03/2018 06:41

I got a BFP!!!! Xxxx

wombats · 30/03/2018 06:57

Congrats Liverpool and Becky! Love all of the BFPs! Liverpool, 45 quid is completely reasonable for peace of mind Smile

Winnie, the injections are easy compared to the emotional roller coaster. Though I'm quite nervous about needles so DH injected me, surprisingly he loved it Hmm

I'm feeling alright, absolutely knackered yesterday and felt a bit sick with dinner, hoping this is reassuring. Was apparently on the callback list for the nurses from my clinic but haven't heard anything yet, not sure if they are closed for bank hols?
Xx

Lavmc · 30/03/2018 07:04

Congratulations liverpool19 and Becky. I tested this morning (a day early) and got a faint second line. I'm trying not to get too excited!!

Yayyyy so happy for use becky lav amazing news.
wombats mine are open bank holidays which I’m happy about, I have to work them so should everyone 😂😂 xx

becky114 · 30/03/2018 07:24

@Lavmc I know exactly what a faint line feels like, get the ones that say pregnant 🤰 or not pregnant 🤰 for your main test tomorrow. That helped it feel more real xxx

XstephanieX · 30/03/2018 07:51

@becky114 @Lavmc Congratulations!! All the BFPs are filling me with positivity! :)

Lavmc · 30/03/2018 07:54

Thanks very much ladies. I will test again tomorrow. Staying positive for you all too xx
