Sorry I've left this thread so long! I've had an interesting few days and not wanted to update prematurely but more on that later.
@Caityprice Welcome to the 2WW and congrats on 1 in the oven and 2 in the freezer! Hope you make it through with your sanity intact. I've tried offering the tug toy to the puppy instead but it doesn't seem to be helping. I've got teeth marks all over my arms and legs! Yoga wise I like Yoga with Adrienne but not sure if it's suitable during 2WW/pregnancy.
@sometimesalways There are very good arguments for holding out on testing (clear result, possibly less anxiety inducing?) but I've been naughty and tested early.
@confused107 Glad you have been keeping yourself busy but sorry you've had some spotting. You're on the home straight now! We're planning to do puppy classes once our pup is 13 weeks old. She has so much energy I can't wait until we can take her out! 4 more weeks to go.
@Parkandride Sorry you've had a delay, must be really frustrating, every day feels like a week when you're doing IVF!
@Bailey2017 After my last chemical pregnancy (fresh IVF cycle) I started to bleed 3 days after stopping progesterone. Hope you're doing ok. x
@Lola124 I think the main thing is to enjoy your food and not stress! My clinic recommend vitamin D also. How are you finding the stims?
@Dlpdep One in the oven and 3 in the freezer is a fantastic result! I can't wait until we can start puppy training classes, the pup is getting more and more mental by the day! (As am I it seems...)
@Peanut1980 Hope your little one had a fab birthday. 13 fertilised is a fantastic result, fingers crossed they develop nicely. This part of the process is so stressful! When will you get an update?
@orangefolly That's a great result, hope you get good results with the testing and have a chill couple of weeks.
@Celledora So sorry this cycle didn't work out. Hope you're being well looked after. 
@Marmite83 Glad you are doing ok and keeping yourself occupied! I personally find the 2WW absolute torture.
Right, on to my news. The short version is, it's a BFP.
The slightly longer version... I'm now on my 5th cycle of fertility treatment and can't figure out which is worse - holding off and testing when I'm supposed to or testing early and often. They are both excruciating in slightly different ways!
I noticed I was feeling quite nauseous at 2dp5dt and unusually sensitive to smells. This cycle I started testing daily with cheap one step tests at 3dp5dt and all the tests are positive (I'm now 7dp5dt and official test date isn't until Thursday which will be 13dp5dt). I did have an hCG trigger shot but am confident this is not what I'm seeing in the tests as they are getting darker (and also on my first IUI cycle I tested with a FRER at 13dpo/15 days post trigger and it was a stone cold negative). I took a FRER this morning and it's got what I think is a fairly decent line for 7dp5dt/7dpo. I can share a pic if people don't mind?
I'm obviously pleased to have a positive test but after 3 early losses it's hard to get excited. My lines are looking better than they did at this point with the chemical pregnancies that ended at 3+6 and 5+0 so hoping this is a sticky one. I'm experiencing quite a bit of anxiety and going to try and see if I can arrange some counselling.
This journey is a crazy one and I'm thankful to be sharing it with you ladies. I hope we all get to hold our babies someday.
