Sept IVF/FET Part 2

[Lemongrass1]

For more chat!

I’m sorry @AutumnHoping still keeping everything crossed for a change tomorrow xx

I hope you are ok ladies. When I had cramping and shooting pains in my groin I was told it was the progesterone 🤞🤞🤞 🤷🏻‍♀️ X

@AutumnHoping and @Minster2012 thank you both! I am just taking it a day at the time and hoping for the best. @AutumnHoping i hope you are ok and you can resume soon if that is what you want and be ready to do.

Thanks @Fightingtobepositive. How are you doing?

How are you feeling today @Fightingtobepositive? When are you going to be able to test?

@poupou thank you. I would start again tomorrow if I could. I don’t know the process but looking online I think best case scenario would be 4-6 weeks. But no doubt the clinic will try to milk it by making me have another consultation where I pay for them to agree to me starting again.
I’m ok - well I’m not but I am. 2020 is just an awful year. But hopefully not for all

@AutumnHoping i know what you mean. Maybe a review of the FET cycle is needed and to discuss if there is need for a change of medication? Talk to them and see when you can start with minimum consultation and waste of tiMe. Maybe a month off drugs is actually best (i know this is not what you want and i wouldnt either) for your body to recover and be at its best for the next one and also for mental recovery. Its good that you have more frozen embryos so you wont have to do the fresh cycle st this point. Be kind to yourself! Xxx

Thanks @poupou. Yes at least I can try frozen again. With this being the first frozen I don’t know if they’ll change anything - as they’ve nothing to bench mark against and I doubt they’ll check progesterone levels to see was that an issue. Not sure how many failed attempts before they look into a change - 2?3? I’ll hopefully hear tomo what they suggest. Might be a little quicker speaking to consultants now when they not having face to face apt’s. Hard to know. But can’t see me starting again in 2020 anyway. But you never know x

@AutumnHoping i hope you will find out soon and honestly wish you the fastest start again with the best outcomes.

I hope you get to start when you are ready @AutumnHoping. It’s no fun hanging around. But if you do have a little wait... eat what you like drink what you like and have a nice hot bath x

I am waiting on bloods and they actually want me to have a scan now to check the fluid. But I have to wait until the end of the day because of covid. So atleast they are being as through as they can. Just a waiting game at the moment. If they are satisfied I maybe going home tonight 🤞 🤞🤞

Oh that sounds promising @Fightingtobepositive - you’re right it’s good they checking all. Glad you seem to be on the mend anyway. You've had such a hard time it it. I’m sure you’re excited for your own bed!

Thank you at @AutumnHoping oh I’d love my own bed and my own smells and noises right now. I’ve literally been locked in my hospital room since Thursday evening now. I’m climbing the walls 🙈
Hope you are doing ok 💜 x

@Fightingtobepositive Ah great news 🤞🏼 you can go home tonight!! X

I’m sure you are @Fightingtobepositive. And have you been allowed any visitors even? I’m sure it has been made 10x worse with Covid. So hope you get out tonight x

No. No visitors, I’m literally in my room and haven’t left. Only full ppe can come in so everything is limited. It’s not please t. But 🤞🤞🤞 for tonight x

@Fightingtobepositive oh heck that’s hard going!

Hope you can go home soon

@Fightingtobepositive any update on going home yet? Really hope you get to sleep in your own bed tonight!

@AutumnHoping I’m really sorry to hear that, I hope your Holding up ok and get to start again soon x

@Fightingtobepositive you’ve been in my thoughts, hope you managed to get home tonight x

Finding this whole thing overwhelming at the moment this morning I had more brown discharge which then went then came back. Clinic said not to bother ringing unless red or cramping.

Then at about 8:30 has red spots of blood or discharge which has now turned brown But is still going.

Rang out of hours that said wear panty liner and monitor tonight. The sister said to ring 111 or get to A And E if there is lots of blood.

Feeling very flat and scared.

Sorry for rant.

Now back to red and not stopping but not much on panty liner I’m at very low ebb.

Ok so i will read through in a second but just wanted to fill you in because I especially need som support right now.

So the hospital had been doing hcg bloods daily, they were rising nicely which means I am pregnant they were happy with the blood levels apart from my liver so have to get more of them from my go (I’m home by the way) when I can (after covid) so as I was leaving they wanted me to go for an ultrasound to check the fluid out to see if it was ok for now and they could discharge me. The fluid is still not rebuilding so that’s good. But as they scanned they couldn’t see a sac 😖 they told me to ring my clinic and book a scan ASAP (can’t because I’m in isolation) and then sent me home with no other information. Ladies I feel like my world is falling apart and I haven’t even had the chance to poas. Is there anyone with an experience that can shed some light. Obviously I’m thinking ectopic 😢

Oh @Fightingtobepositive I’m so sorry you’re going through this and have been left in limbo. Could it be that it’s still too early to see the sac- I thought maybe it wasn’t visible to 5.5 weeks or so. What department was scanning you in hospital? Early pregnancy unit or radiography? I’m sorry you’re going through this and can’t do anything to put your mind at ease due to Covid. Also if not a transvaginal scan then very likely it wouldn’t be able to pick anything up. They don’t usually do ultrasounds until later for that very reason - they just aren’t as accurate x

@Fightingtobepositive in your situation I’d probably say getting the scan is more important than the isolation. Get it booked, but take all possible precautions. Thinking of you and hoping really hard for a positive outcome.

@Fightingtobepositive sorry you’re going through this. I agree with @AutumnHoping it’s too early. Who scanned you? If it wasn’t a speciality doctor then I really wouldn’t put too much trust in them. Hcg rising is a good sign. I’m in limbo with no blood tests, just waiting for scan next week.

@thefishthatcouldwish could you get some blood tests done? I would just insist on it. Might be too early for scan - when are you due a scan? Sending hugs x

@Fightingtobepositive I hope I can put your mind at ease slightly....

I have a history of ectopic so when I phoned the clinic yesterday morning to tell them it was BFP they said I had to go for early scan, I asked how early I can go and they said at this stage it would be pointless because they probably wouldn’t see anything until round about the 6 week mark. I have an app next Thursday the 15th and at that point I will be 6 weeks + 2 days so please try not to worry too much I think it’s been too early for you to get a scan xx

@thefishthatcouldwish how’s the bleeding been over last couple of hours? Remind me how many weeks you are? xx

Sending much love and 🤞🏼 everything is ok for both you ladies ❤️

@thefishthatcouldwish I’m sorry you have to worry like this. Can you insist on some bloods with your doctor surgery? Explain you anxiety

Everything I’ve read on Dr google suggests you can atleast see the sac. I was 4 weeks and 6 days yesterday. I can’t get seen any sooner because of the isolation from covid. No one will see me, getting out of the hospital was like going through an army rank as a criminal 🙈.
My private clinic said not to worry they dont do scans until 6 weeks because their not viable. But I am not buying it, I just feel that again because of the covid I am being told things that aren’t 100% true. I am freaking out and now have to wait at least 2 weeks 😢

My gosh ladies this is such a hard and long road isn’t it xx
