Good luck for tomorrow @twinkleyes35 💫

QuantumGirl · 03/02/2020 22:40

Oh I'm sorry to hear @HJF84, this is really shit 😔💐

Welcome @MrsLouB and @Stace999. @MrsLouB we are FET buddies as I also had my transfer on the 29th. When is your OTD?

Thanks for thinking of me @BambiOnIce80. I was very happy and positive until today when the devil 😈 on my shoulder came to visit and I started the slippery slope of 'what ifs'. I don't have any Frosties from this cycle and can't stop fretting about the test day and where I am going to get the courage to test from. My boobs stopped hurting as much and I keep getting twinges around the ovary areas. It of course might mean nothing and I'm just bored with the wait as today was my first day in the office after transfer day. I'm out of my mind 🤪. When is your next milestone? 6 weeks scan?

Viletta · 03/02/2020 23:28

@Stace999 our last FET with a slow blast was the one to stick! Good luck!

Viletta · 03/02/2020 23:29

@twinkleyes35 and @Sarab2020 good luck for tomorrow!! Crossing everything for you!

FlapJackered · 04/02/2020 03:48

Urghhh and I am up again at stupid o'clock. I love progesterone ❤️

Welcome @Stace999 😁
Try not to worry too much, the clinic would not have transferred them if they thought they had no chance. 🤞

Welcome @MrsLouB ! 👋🏻

Good luck @Sarab2020 @twinkleyes35 !! 🤞🤞🤞

I am so sorry @HJF84 , look after yourself. Wishing you all the luck in your next cycle. ❤️

MrsLouB · 04/02/2020 03:58

That's all @FlapJackered i am so glad it not just me up at stupid o'clock lol
@QuantumGirl yay my official test day is sunday but as the clinic is closed they said monday lol never going to happen.

This is our second try after 14 years with one frostie left so have everything crossed. Have had awful af type pains since saturday though so not sure about that x

FlapJackered · 04/02/2020 04:20

@MrsLouB welcome to the 4am club 😂
When do you think you will test?
Gosh 14 years! That must be very tough. I have got everything crossed for you 🤞🤞

MrsLouB · 04/02/2020 04:29

@flapjackered lol going be a long day at work.

It has been an awfully long time we have had a few chemicals along the way to but our last ivf failed. This time i am just going with it.

In regards to testing i already have POAS addict here its way to early but i did get a faintfaint line but DH has banned me until wednesday now lol.

Where are you at in testing days x

MrsLouB · 04/02/2020 05:10

@FlapJackered just wanted to say congrats that a beautiful bfp ( just read back through the threads)

FlapJackered · 04/02/2020 06:50

@MrsLouB sorry to hear about your chemicals, that must have been heartbreaking. You definitely deserve to get a nice strong line on Wednesday!
Thanks, Yes I got my bfp on Friday, very cautiously happy!

Sarab2020 · 04/02/2020 07:18

Unfortunately not good news this morning, test was a BFN. The clinic is calling later so will see what the next steps are.
Hope you get a better result @twinkleyes35

BambiOnIce80 · 04/02/2020 07:40

Oh yes @QuantumGirl , this is the TWW to end all TWW's and it is massively crazy making! 🤪 I found going back to work was mostly helpful for the distraction, but then I'm also struggling to concentrate, so can't win really! 🤷‍♀️ How long until your OTD again?x

Welcome @MrsLouB 👋 Good luck for your TWW 🍀

Sorry you got the 4am wake up call again @FlapJackered 💐 I was really lucky last night - went to bed at 10pm and woke up with my alarm at 6am! I was desperate for that solid 8 hours, but then I was also desperate for a wee when I woke up! 😳

I'm so sorry that it's a BFN this time @Sarab2020 💙 Please let us know what the clinic say the plan is going forward.x

MrsLouB · 04/02/2020 07:51

I did cave a tested again today but both yesterday and today so very faint almost imagining them hmm @sarab2020 sorry to here your news xx
@BambiOnIce80 thank you

QuantumGirl · 04/02/2020 08:17

Sorry about your BFN @Sarab2020 hope your clinic will come up with a good plan of action.
@BambiOnIce80 my OTD is Monday 10th and I will NOT test before then, that's a promise to myself 😉

MrsLouB · 04/02/2020 08:52

@quantumgirl wow thats some will power.

I just cant seem to wait have never been able to in all my years. Here's to our OTD of monday the 10th xx

Lily999 · 04/02/2020 09:05

Good morning girls, I am happy to see you on the other side! :) Glad to see old "faces" here, so excited to join the 2WW group!

So to sum up my story I was on short protocol /mild IVF and started injections on the 17th of Jan, stimmed for 11days, then had EC on the 29th of Jan. Got 10eggs, 9mature. We did ICSI and 5eggs got fertilised (4+1 as 1 fertilised late). On day 3 all 5of them were developing, but the +1 was only 3cells, so really 4embies.
By day 5 (yesterday) we got 2 strong pretty little embryos 5BA grading so we transferred one back and one was popped in the freezer for later that we were very happy with.

After the transfer we went back home and I started watching comedies, then fell asleep and pretty much slept through the entire day :D
Glad to see the BFP's and sorry to hear abouth the BFN's it is a hard game and just hope for the BFN's are not the end of the road.

Wimbledon1 · 04/02/2020 09:19

So sorry to hear this @Sarab2020 , so disappointing. Sending you lots of best wishes for the next stage. Take care of yourself.

@twinkleyes35 I'm keeping everything crossed for you this morning 🤞🏻🍀

rainbow178 · 04/02/2020 09:23

Hi guys, I am now joining this thread after my day 5 transfer yesterday- hi everyone!

Already got some brown spotting though so feeling a bit confused about that- anyone else has similar experiences?

Good luck to everyone

Lily999 · 04/02/2020 09:27

Hi @rainbow178 could it be due to the catheter going in yesterday? Just a guess.

Chooklass · 04/02/2020 09:37

@rainbow178 I had that the day after ET too - only lasted a day xx

Welcome aboard the TWW crazy train @rainbow178 , @Lily999 and @MrsLouB !! 😊

So sorry to hear your news @Sarab2020 💐

OTD tomorrow and I'm dreading it 😱. I'm so proud I haven't poas yet! I know everyone says it but I just don't feel like it's worked. It's just so hard to imagine a BFP after so long? I've taken day off but OH is working. I'm thinking of things to keep myself busy - so far thought of shopping for new boots! Need more ideas (no more plants though 🙈🌿) xx

LouisaPipSqueak · 04/02/2020 09:59

Hi,
I’m new to this so thanks to @chooklass for inviting me. My story is very similar to @Lily999 had my 5 day transfer on Saturday just gone. Already symptom spotting and can’t help it. Had the chills last night and today a tiny sore throat starting. I’m already thinking it’s a BPN 😭 xx

twinkleyes35 · 04/02/2020 10:00

Ohhh sorry to hear about you @Sarab2020 I just hope next try works for you and your clinic has planned for you next steps x hugs x

I am at the clinic waiting to be called for blood work I think will hear back after lunch x fingers cross 🤞🤞🤞need baby dust guys x 🤞🤞🙏🏻

Chooklass · 04/02/2020 10:18

Sending all the positive vibes your way @twinkleyes35 !! What have you got planned to keep your mind off it while you wait? X

Welcome @LouisaPipSqueak ! I've had a sore throat and stuffy nose since a few days past ET too - think the progesterone pessaries can cause that? A few other folk mentioned feeling the same so don't worry! (Easier said than done, I know!) x

LouisaPipSqueak · 04/02/2020 10:27

Thanks @Chooklass I hope this doesn’t affect our chances? Everyone at work is joking that I have the corona virus!!

twinkleyes35 · 04/02/2020 10:41

Thank you all and @Chooklass just been back will hear by 3.30 ish 🤞🤞. Just going to chill and binge watch can't wait for the phone call ☺️
