@AutumnHoping your day sounds great and relaxing! And great to have plans for the weekend! Tuesday is not far away! And try to shake this feeling! Sooo be positive and fingers crossed! Enjoy the weekend! I have some plans as well but depending on how it will go with bleeding and my mood (doesnt appear to have increased for the last 6 hours so i really hope its not AF). Tuesday is just four days away!!!

AutumnHoping · 02/10/2020 20:48

Oh that’s good @poupou. Hope it stays that way and doesn’t come back and it was implantation. And at least with extra progesterone - no harm with an extra dose. I hope you’ve a nice weekend whatever you decide. Plenty on tv to keep you occupied with your feet up x

poupou · 02/10/2020 21:25

@AutumnHoping thanks! Fingers crossed it was ok and true there is lots to watch on tv! Thanks

Fightingtobepositive · 02/10/2020 23:01

Thank you @Minster2012

@AutumnHopingits tomorrow. No test though 🤦🏻‍♀️ But with all the bloods I’ve had someone should know. You don’t know it hasn’t and you’ve got a fe days left yet so have faith x

@unknownscot exciting. Good luck.

thefishthatcouldwish · 03/10/2020 05:36

Am going to call the clinic am scared have wiped and there is brown discharge again but quite a bit more with two tiny bits of red stuff.
I’m quite scared shaking and hubby just gone to work.

Only thing dunno to ring out of hours or ring actual clinic or what to do for the best?

WeavingWandering · 03/10/2020 06:07

Umm... so I was convinced I was out... I had my transfer last Saturday . I’ve just done a test and it’s... got a faint but definite line (it’s clear enough I could spam my partner with numerous ‘ am I seeing things ?!’ Photos this morning )

It was a natural FET and AF is due Monday but is faint ok? I know I tested about a week preOTD

thefishthatcouldwish · 03/10/2020 06:43

Rang emergency number they said ring back in two to three hours

UncleBrynsfishingtrip · 03/10/2020 06:48

@thefishthatcouldwish

I’ve got everything crossed for you. When is your first scan? Xxxx

thefishthatcouldwish · 03/10/2020 06:57

Not until 14th of October.

DH in work and I am sat in bed feeling overwhelmed and teary.

AutumnHoping · 03/10/2020 07:20

I’m sorry @thefishthatcouldwish. Have you had any more? Hopefully as it’s brown it’s nothing to worry about but I’m sure you are just a bag of nerves. I really hope you’re ok. It can be perfectly normal. And when you’re still on progesterone too it’s very normal. Hopefully you don’t get anymore and you can relax a little x

AutumnHoping · 03/10/2020 07:21

Oh flip @Fightingtobepositive - this is def not how you expected your test day to be I’m sure! Has anyone even mentioned testing?
Are you feeling any better yet? X

Fightingtobepositive · 03/10/2020 07:30

Hope you are ok @thefishthatcouldwish 💜

@AutumnHoping no it wasn’t but I’m wear I need to be. I slept better but just waiting for doctors and chest doctor to come around today to see what they say. I don’t think I’ll be home for atleast a week x

AutumnHoping · 03/10/2020 07:38

You poor thing @Fightingtobepositive. You’re really being out through the mill. But like you say at least you’re in safe hands and can be looked after. X

thefishthatcouldwish · 03/10/2020 08:04

@Fightingtobepositive Oh gosh poor you. At least you’re in the best place.

Things seemed to have stopped with me now. Just fingers crossed it’s nothing.

Minster2012 · 03/10/2020 09:37

@thefishthatcouldwish stay positive darling. A little spotting can be very normal, you have been sticking things up you (sorry but it's true) for a long time now & it's bound to irate things. Many ppl even without IVF get spotting in the first 8/12 weeks & all is fine, we had an emergency scan did to quite a lot of blood & all was well so don't lose heart big I know it's very hard. Sending big hugs & chill out xxx

@WeavingWandering that's great!! No it's not too soon for a positive, and I said don't count yourself out!! A week after a 5 day transfer is about 12days past ovulation in normal TTC terms do tentative congratulations xxx😘

JandL2020 · 03/10/2020 10:26

@thefishthatcouldwish that must be really worrying, hope you can be seen a bit earlier. I know of a few people with spotting and everything was okay. Keeping everything crossed for you.

@Fightingtobepositive you poor thing! Hope you get the positive result after all this.

My symptoms have subsided which is a bit worrying but equally means I’m not as bloated so can do pilates and have a long walk (in the rain) today which I’m looking forward to. I don’t know whether to test again. It has been a week since my last test but my scan isn’t until 14th October - that seems to be an important date for a lot of us! Xx

Minster2012 · 03/10/2020 10:43

@JandL2020 have you done a digital test for the weeks? That could put your mind at ease a bit? And the 14th isn't too far away now, I've done my dog walk in the rain already this morning and we are on our way to drop off DS with his oddparents (we aren't religious so we did a naming ceremony to mark them as how important they are in his life) for the rest of the weekend then we are off shopping xx

JandL2020 · 03/10/2020 11:03

@Minster2012 no I’ve not done a weeks one as I’ve heard they can be unreliable. Perhaps I’ll do one before my scan then it will prepare me for bad news if it doesn’t say 3 +
I think you meant godparents at least I hope you did 🤣 xxx

WeavingWandering · 03/10/2020 12:08

@Minster2012 oh I hope you’re right! Bodies are so weird....

Fingers crossed for us all!

JenniferRo28 · 03/10/2020 12:21

@thefishthatcouldwish I’m sure it’s nothing to worry about, but I will be exactly the same if I see any blood. Hopefully you don’t see anymore x

@Fightingtobepositive sorry your having to spend your weekend in hospital, so today is your OTD? x

@Minster2012 enjoy your peaceful weekend and remember to take it easy. Don’t spend too much money at the shops haha

My parents have a caravan about an hour away from home so i made the last min decision to have some time away and brought my best friend with me (husbands working all weekend) the rain is absolutely torrential but there’s something really calming about rain on a caravan roof so feeling really chilled, just going to watch films all day in my pjs.

I’ve done 3 tests since yesterday morning just to make sure 😂😂😂

thefishthatcouldwish · 03/10/2020 13:04

Clinic have actually rang me back! They said not to worry brown blood is old blood but go keep scan date for 14th but any cramping or red blood to phone straight away.

Thanks for the kind messages 😀 this thread really makes me feel better.

@JenniferRo28 that sounds ideal!

@Minster2012 you talk lots of sense!

Sunbird24 · 03/10/2020 13:59

@thefishthatcouldwish glad the clinic called you, hope that’s helped ease your mind a bit along with all the useful experience from PPs!

@JenniferRo28 that sounds like a lovely way to spend a rainy day, especially if there’s snacks involved... 😊

Minster2012 · 03/10/2020 17:08

@JandL2020 nope I meant "oddparents" not godparents as we aren't religious and don't believe in god so instead of a christening we had a rainbow themed naming ceremony where we wrote it all, they read poems & they were named as his oddparents so still recognising them as guiding influences & important people to turn to in his life but in a christening you have to renounce the devil etc etc & if you don't believe it there's no point. We had a humanist wedding performed by the same celebrant and we wrote all of it with him as well & had kazoos hidden everyone's chairs to whip out for the chorus of "it must be love", it was a celebration of life done a year & day after I was told I had a year to live...for the legal bit we had a registrar 2 hours later in a different room just saying the legal words & digking the register so our legal wedding anniversary is still the same day but we did our exchanging of the rings and everything in our main ceremony. It was very us. 🥰

Fightingtobepositive · 04/10/2020 07:00

Thank you ladies.

Yes my OTD was yesterday. I didn’t get to poas unfortunately.

Wishing everyone so much luck.

I know lots of people who had spotting throughout the first 8 weeks and all said they were told it would probably have been implantation bleeding. But I hope you are ok 💜 @thefishthatcouldwish

Fightingtobepositive · 04/10/2020 07:01

I am feeling a little. Strong and showing slight improvement daily. So I’m hoping it won’t be to long now x
