I’m just sat waiting for transfer...I felt really excited last time but this time I’m feeling emotional and nervous 😥

Minster2012 · 02/10/2020 11:31

@LKSF good luck!! You'll be fine, this is just the start!! 🤞🏻❤️

Honestly so pleased for you @JenniferRo28 🎉
I feel ok, weirdly my boobs having felt mega sore and hard and tender for the 3 weeks of estrogen now feel more normal so meh. I spent ALL of last night googling stuff 😂but working today albeit taking it relatively easy. Just had my flu jab too. Not feeling very positive though.

LKSF · 02/10/2020 11:35

Thanks! Little Embryo is all onboard....now for the TWW 🤯 they gave me two PT....OTD is 13th but if that’s negative I have to do another one on 15th! 🤞🏼

JenniferRo28 · 02/10/2020 12:45

@LKSF congrats on transfer, take it easy for next couple of days x

@Minster2012 My boobs were bloody agony until start of this week then all of a sudden nothing and they still feel fine, I felt a little odd tingling sensation in my nipples last night but nothing since. Ive got 3 days left of progesterone gel to take then after that nothing so hoping I will then be able to work out what’s been real symptoms and what’s not.

Minster2012 · 02/10/2020 13:21

@LKSF congrats on being PUPO!! 🎉your OTD is still sooner than mine 😂🤣now chill! Xx

thefishthatcouldwish · 02/10/2020 16:17

@LKSF glad it went well for you 😀. Hope you have a good TWW.

Fightingtobepositive · 02/10/2020 16:34

@unknownscot I was told lots of protein and fluids

@thefishthatcouldwish have you been constipated from prog, I get that when I can’t go to the loo.

@UnicornPuff stay strong. You’ve done so many ‘2 weeks’ already you can do another 💜

@Minster2012 aw I’m sure it’s fine, hopefully you can get some rest over ther weekend x

@JenniferRo28 glad you are nice and chilled. I’m loving the doggy pics. Yay another bfp congratulations 👏

I’m the same but I’m happy that it’s no worse so that’s always a positive 🤞🤞🤞. Still monitoring fluid. I was going to test today so feeling a little down in the dumps about not being able to find out for myself, I’m assuming there will be bloods now.

It’s nice to hear the thread is sounding so positive good luck to everyone waiting xx

unknownscot · 02/10/2020 17:10

YEY! Egg Collection officially booked for Tuesday morning. So trigger on Sunday night.

So nervous that it's all actually happening now. 🙈

poupou · 02/10/2020 17:24

Hello guys,
4 days after transfer and yesterday i had terrible cramps and sweated and was feeling like AF is arriving. At noon today i had some blood on the paper that increased afterwards. Its still bright pink Still nothing on my panties. My progesterone was 100 on transfer day but i think i am probably out! I am increasing progesterone per clinics advice but this will just prolonged my misery as they said test on the 13th!

Minster2012 · 02/10/2020 17:32

@unknownscot that's great! Wooooo!!!

@Fightingtobepositive really pleased you are feeling good and no worse, onwards & upwards & here's to getting better

@poupou it's likely good news, cramping & blood spots are great signs of implantation don't give up most ppl want to see small blood spots 🤞🏻

Sunbird24 · 02/10/2020 17:35

@poupou could it be implantation bleed? Will keep everything crossed for you.

@LKSF congratulations on being PUPO, hope you can relax for the next couple of weeks

@JenniferRo28 hooray for a BFP!

I had my 10 day scan today, and no wonder I’ve been feeling bloated, I’ve got 25 follicles growing in there! All between 8-17mm so I’ve to do a couple more days of stims and they’ll have another look on Monday. Should be collecting eggs on Weds. 🤞

JandL2020 · 02/10/2020 17:42

Sounds similar to what I have @poupou but without the spotting. It was likely implantation the nurse said - so could be a good sign.

poupou · 02/10/2020 17:46

@Minster2012 and @Sunbird24 i wish and i am hoping so much to be implantation bleed. I am really hoping! I am so deflated with all of this! The blood is pinkish but increased when i went the loo after 1 h and now its again as at the start! I left everything at work and i am home now debating if k should increase progesterone or not. @Sunbird24 that is an excellent and amazing number of eggs! Well done and best of luck with egg collection!

poupou · 02/10/2020 17:49

@JandL2020 thank you for replying. Its encouraging to hear. I hope so but we will
See if its increased or not.

Minster2012 · 02/10/2020 18:19

@poupou you should def do what your clinic says, don't be deflated at all, implantation bleeding can last over a day so don't be deflated at all & if you stop your meds then you are going to cause a period for no reason when you could be pregnant. Sorry for being harsh but it's true. Your body needs that and what's the harm?? Come on. Trust your body. I keep looking at my pants hoping for bleeding!! Even my hubby said yesterday after I had pain saying "that could be good yes? Was there any spotting?" So come on, big girl pants on and get that progesterone in. That embryo hasn't nestled in for nothing ❤️🥰

Minster2012 · 02/10/2020 18:20

@Sunbird24 that's great news, and boo to bloating I like it when it's for a reason 🤗

poupou · 02/10/2020 18:26

@Minster2012 thank you so so much! You made me laugh! I am not stopping my meds i wont give up yet! Hope dies last and i will be hoping that this is good until proven otherwise! I was just debating to increase the dose of progesterone as the first nurse said no but the second said to increase to three pessaries from 2 pessaries as my progesterone was well above 100 on transfer day! As if i increase the bleeding might stop but i wont know if this is implantation or not! Iam waiting a an hour or so to see if the blood is increasing or not and probably do the extra dose so i can give it all!

poupou · 02/10/2020 18:27

@Minster2012 how are you feeling today? Any better?

Sunbird24 · 02/10/2020 19:08

@Minster2012 when do you get to test?

Minster2012 · 02/10/2020 19:40

Oh I see @poupou sorry! Prob a bit harsh then!! I'm on 3 x 200mg of progesterone anyway, and was last time all the way through, but my progesterone 2 days before transfer was only 27 this time and last was over 30, yours is much higher. But I would say 3 is fine I would rather have more to support a pregnancy than not but 🤷‍♀️

I'm feeling ok but not meh tbh

@Sunbird24 my OTD isn't til 14th
But I will likely test next weekend

Sunbird24 · 02/10/2020 19:44

@Minster2012 good luck, hope you don’t get too impatient!

poupou · 02/10/2020 19:46

@Minster2012 no worries! I am on 2 cyclogest and 2 lubion injections as my clinic wants good progesterone levels! Hence i am not sure about increasing it further but too much progesterone is not an issue! Still have no change so fingers crossed is not AF! Enjoy the weekend and rest you definitely deserve it! Many many thanks again!

AutumnHoping · 02/10/2020 19:48

Hi All. Ah @poupou it’s horrible when any doubt creeps in. I think my test will be negative. No reasons just a feeling. Like a deep down ‘I just know it hasn’t worked’. I’m 8 days post transfer now.
Hope you’re feeling a little better @Fightingtobepositive - when is your Test day? Or has it passed already?
Hope your back is better @Minster2012 and you have a nice relaxing day tomorrow.

Sounds great @Sunbird24 - slow and steady wins the race and all that!

Great news @unknownscot

I’ve been doing ok. Time going pretty quick tbf. Keeping busy. But will be good to know either way next week.

poupou · 02/10/2020 19:54

@AutumnHoping thank youuu for your kind words! Its so difficult the whole thing and especially after negative signs! I am not sure what to think but i will keep on going until test date! Dont count yourself out! Its a chances game and you might be pleasantly surprised despite having a feeling! You dont have to have any symptoms as so many said to get a positive! I am routing for you! I was also keeping busy but apparently my body had other plans! Now i am scared to even move from the sofa! Best of luck for next week! When is OTD?

AutumnHoping · 02/10/2020 20:25

Thanks @poupou. Oh I know. And I had zero symptoms with my positive. It’s just a bad feeling I can’t shake. But happy to be proven wrong obviously 😀 official test day is Tuesday. Which will be 12 days post transfer. Which is maybe still a tad earlier than some people’s official test date so don’t know about testing beforehand. Prob will lol
You’re right to just rest up when you can. And if you can have a super chill weekend - have it! I was off today but met a friend for lunch and went shopping so was still nice and occupied at least. And have plans over the weekend so time will hopefully continue to whizz by.
