ET day today..anyone else

[MrsLouB]

Hi So after my ER i had 9 eggs all mature and 7 fertilised with ISCI, on day 3 all 7 where still all be it 1 a bit slower. So i have been booked in today for my ET. I am so worried about this as my lining wasnt where it needed to be but at ER the dr said it looked fine but had not measured it.

So anyone that's had ET do they measure and check before you have the embryo implanted ? Then im so anxious already for 2ww xx thanks ladies

Also if anyone else is similar would love to wait with you

@MrsLouB I'm doing okay. Cold has subsided (yay!) All I have is a few twinges every now and again. I'm only 4dp5dt, but it seems to feel a lot longer. I've also been waking up ridiculously early, like 4/5am and needing a wee! Yesterday I managed to get back to sleep, but not today. I didn't have this with my last ET, so I wonder if it's the estrogen, are you taking that too?

Christmas decs go up today! I'm a strict 1st Dec kind of gal. Anyone else putting their decs up?

Hey gals also 4dp5dt here and no symptoms yet that couldn’t be explained away by the estradiol / progesterone. Tiny bit of brown spotting yesterday on wiping and then brown ewcm this morning so a bit concerned progesterone levels are too low but already on 3x Cyclogest p/d and they’re messing with my guts so not keen on taking any more. Oh the joys of ttc 😬

@HJF84 how organised and festive!! I haven’t given Xmas a thought yet this year - too all-consumed with the cycle but will be a nice distraction so have asked DH to get ours down from loft today 🌲🙂

@kell2126 Glad to have inspired someone else with the Christmas decs 🎄 They are down from the loft and I'm ready to go. I might stick on Love Actually or The Holiday.

Maybe speak to your consultant tomorrow about the spotting? Hopefully it's implantation bleeding, as that could be around now?

Would the combination of estrogen and progesterone tablets delay our periods? With my fresh cycle, I started brown spotting on day 6. I wondered if I might not get that this cycle as I'm taking estrogen too?

Hi @kell2126 @HJF84

Yay i have put my decs up today too.

So i am 6dpt 5dt today ive had spotting or anything, i am on cylocyst x 2 and lubion injections but no estrogen but i think that may be an issue if we dont get a bfp this cycle.

As i was concerned my lining wasn't thick enough.

Oh this a long wait ladies

I developed a mild stuffy nose a few days after my embryo transfer. I thought it was a cold and was worried about it, but I still got my BFP. The stuffy nose persisted for weeks and I now think it was pregnancy rhinitis. Good luck everyone!

Huge congrats on your bfp @Cattenberg!

Yeah I think good call on contacting the clinic tomorrow re the spotting- can’t be too careful I guess

@MrsLouB and @HJF84 I think I’m going to try a cheeky frer tomorrow morning. Anyone with me? 🤞🏽

Oh sorry @HJF84 forgot to say: last cycle I got af day after it would normally come and I was on 2x Cyclogest per day. This cycle I’m on 3 per day so I’m guessing if this cycle is a bust it might take longer for af to show

I had my ET today, feeling super tired I think the entire process has tired me out, so will take the day off work to rest up. I have been having twinges all evening, not sure if that is normal?!

I put Christmas decorations up on Saturday (couldn’t wait until the 1st!) so definitely feeling festive which is nice.

My test day is 12th Dec - election day - but the only result I’ll be thinking about is POAS..

@Jem01 Congrats on being PUPO - and welcome to the TWW club. Yes, twinges are normal, especially in the 24 hours after ET. I still have them now, hopefully it's implantation but it's caused by the progesterone

@kell2126 I didn't test this morning. I'll give it a few more days and test on Wednesday.

Back at work today! So much to do but trying not to stress about it. I had a really bad nights sleep too - I was so hot! Which is crazy, it was -minus degrees outside and the heating wasn't on. I got up to check. I wonder it it's the estrogen? @MrsLouB are you still having night sweats?

Morning all @kell2126 i did do a cheeky test this morning but not a frer as only have one waiting on others to arrive and bfn. But i am weeing every 2hrs so my am may be diluted. Did you test???

@hjf84 good luck back at work try not to stress i know its not easy. Yeah i had a bad night sweat on thurs and sat night and a smaller one last night but woke up at 2.30am and back to sleep till 4am so tired. Maybe its the progesterone?? How are you other than that?

other than that i am struggling to regulate my temperature i seem to he either to hot or cold but normally hot.

Ive had AF cramps or sensations the last few days that real heavy feeling and a couple of poking sensation on the right side.

I keep thinking im out xx

Hope you have a good return to work, @HJF84, and congrats on getting through the ET, @Jem01 x

I did do a FRER this morning. Woke up at 0315 for a wee so did it then. Inconclusive (surprise!). Not sure if I can see smth or not (DH says not), so will try again tomorrow morning

@kell2126 oh no! well at least it was not stark white like mine.

I may just wait till Wednesday now as my DH said he would want to test with me from Wednesday :-)

@HJF84 When are you testing

@MrsLouB Other than the lack of sleep I'm fine. I feel bloated with the odd twinge here and there. Oddly it feels like ovulation twinges, which can't be right. This morning has been okay. I bought myself a pukka tea advent calendar so I've had two of those this morning (1st & 2nd) and one was called Relax. It's easy to symptom spot, or not, but it's probably way too early to tell right now. I'm going to test when I get home from work on Weds. I know FMU is best but I don't want to then have to go to work, regardless of what it is!

@kell2126 Why do you think the test was inconclusive? Was there a faint line?

@HJF84 oh that's lovely I am pretty much the same I will try and wait till Wednesday not but will depend how many times I am up in the night xxx

Yes a very very faint one- v difficult to get photo but here’s the best one. Not sure it has colour though so it could be just a cruel evap ☹️

@kell2126 There's definitely a faint line there for you. Maybe try another one tomorrow and see if it's darker?

@kell2126 i can see the line! Cant wait to see what tomorrow holds xx

thanks @MrsLouB and @HJF84 – everything crossed for you on Weds – not long to wait now xxx

Well i caved and took one today and BFN feel so low. I dont feel well either have bad af cramps and feel ill plus night sweats again so i dont think its happened xx good luck this morning xx

I think there’s a more obvious line today. Definitely pinker. Not letting myself believe and still v early days but a tiny step in the right direction 😶🤞🏽🤞🏽

Hope today flies by for us all xx

Oh I’m sorry @MrsLouB. it’s still such early days though - hang in there - you’re not out yet! Cramps and night sweats could go either way. Sending hugs 🤗

Congrats @kell2126 i see it xxx and thank you I'm trying stay positive

Also @kell2126 is that pic on a tweek app? As i can see something slight on mine and tweaked on phone but prob just making it up x

These e
Where tweaked

I think I can see a second line on your inverted pic @MrsLouB!!!

Mine were screen shotted from an app called ‘Pregnancy Test Checker’, and the first one was untweaked (I don’t know how to tweak using just my phone )
