@Raggity19 not until the 15th! I think I just want to know either way so I can move forward!

@Freezerbump I know what you mean. I just thought that it would let me down gently if I did it early. If you do do it then just don’t test everyday. I did and apparently your HCG only doubles every 48-72 hours so when I didn’t see a darker line day to day I’d spend the day in bits! Xx

It’s bad news from me sadly. I’m having another miscarriage just exactly the same as the others and at exactly the sane time. Can’t cope x

@Mctm123 oh poppet I'm so sorry, have you got company? Xx message away if we can help with anything

This is awful, so sorry. Life is so unfair

Yes luckily @Freezerbump my partner has been told to shield for a month so I’m so thankful he’s off work with me and my little boy is getting extra cuddles. We had literally just been outside to watch the fireworks and came in to bright red blood. Worst thing is when we went into lockdown last time this happened. We would have had our baby this month. Yet here we are going though the 4th miscarriage and all I can think is I’m gonna end up going through this another 3 times with the ones in the freezer cos why would it be any different. I just feel so angry xxx

@Mctm123 oh lovely, I can't imagine how hard that is, this is my first (and I think only) shot at this and it is super challenging just getting to this point, to go through it over and over must be not only physically but mentally brutal.
Glad you're not on your own, give little one a super big squidge and be gentle to yourself, you're a flipping warrior and I want to be like you when I grow up.
You've got this xxx

@Mctm123 So Sorry lovely :( xx

@Mctm123 I’m so so sorry. Life can be so fucking cruel. Thinking of you xxxx

Thank you for the lovely comments ladies xxx

I'm feeling very periody this evening ladies.... I think she's coming..

Hi Ladies - we are thinking about our next cycle - we are torn between Create and Care. Create will be about 6500 for a fresh cycle, Care do access fertility multi cycle for around 5500. Feel like my head is going to explode x

@jm2020 hiya, I went through care and they've been very good all through, I take it drugs are outside that cost? Mine came to 2300 on top

@jm2020 I second Care. Ours has worked out as about £8000 but that’s with an SSR too (I think that was 1900).

@Freezerbump I feel periody every day haha, we got a positive today on our official test day so I’m hoping it’s a positive sign.

Has anyone had the pregnancy tests from Care? It was like a cassette - I had to use a pipette to drop 3 drops of urine on to it 🤨 does anyone know sensitive it is? It wasn’t as dark as the test I used yesterday but hoping it’s less sensitive...

How are you @Mctm123 xx

@Raggity19 oh that makes me feel a bit better!

Apparently the care tests are always super pale so don't panic xx

I’m ok thanks @Raggity19 I’ve got a scan booked for Tuesday to find out what’s going on. Still bleeding but it’s not heavy at all and only when I wipe and I have no pain. Then this morning I felt nauseous and boobs sore. Retested with clear blue and was 3+ (although I know that means nothing really) but I’m trying to keep an open mind 🤷‍♀️ How are you? Xx

@Mctm123 was thinking of you today. That sounds positive! I think your HCG would plummet quite quickly if it was worst case scenario? I’ll keep my fingers crossed

@Freezerbump I’m ok, I’m still spotting which is worrying me but spoke to the nurse again today and she said it’s normal so I guess I just need to trust them. I’m hoping it’s just the progesterone 🤷‍♀️ My first scan is 26th November

@Raggity19 have my fingers crossed for you xx
@Mctm123 and for you! Glad you're ok today I thought about you this morning xx

Aww thanks lovely ladies you are all so kind xxx

@jm2020 heya hun I'm with care, I know a lady who was on a thread who went with create, there was a few hidden charges with them..
care has taken over a lot of fertility clinics. I think care myself. An you get to speak to actual centres in the area you want rather than a call center xxx

My otd is Monday, do you think tomorrow would be ok? I'm getting fed up with waiting now

@ivftake1 do it!

Confession... after my period pain last night I did a f**k it test this morning..

Far too early and I expect it's just trigger so I'm ignoring it and anxiety baking now... 😳

I tested, bfp, cautiously excited

Congratulations @ivftake1and @Freezerbump!

I’m starting to wonder what’s going on with me. I am still feeling pregnant and the bleeding has eased off again an this morning was just slightly brown. I have no pain. It’s definitely not followed the same pattern as my other losses. On the scan I had at 5+5 the doctor asked me if I’d bled as she could see something separate to the sac. I wonder if it’s just that bleed coming away? I’ve got my scan Tuesday but I’m feeling quite hopeful again (rollercoaster!!!!) x
