@Freezerbump yes I’m thinking it’s the pessaries as (tmi) but I’m getting abit itchy and I feel like it must be related! Honestly I’m surprised my partner is even attracted to me anymore, I feel so disgusting 😂 a spotting greasy mess who cries all the time.

Oo so is that about 2.5 weeks? We’ve got our care one on Friday but have booked an early scan for tomorrow. I’m not holding out much hope we’ll see anything but even if they can give any indication as to where the bleeding is coming from I’ll be so happy. I’m not sure to be honest, I keep forgetting and then thinking oh my god I’m pregnant...

Omg so glad it’s not just me 😂 it’s felt like when I ovulate but even more intense. Crazy, never known anything like it! But I still don’t dare have sex haha xx

@Raggity19 totally get it there's a lot going on in foof land at the moment! 😂

@Raggity19 good luck for the scan today, let me know how you get on, I guess scan will be end of nov all being well, so we shall see :)

Hi everyone,

We had transfer yesterday so now just have to difficult 2WW! I'm so anxious and nervous and feeling really emotional today 🤦🏻‍♀️ trying to take it slow (usually by this time on a Saturday morning I've had 3 workouts coaching classes!) so going to head out for a walk and try to ease up on myself today.
I know there's nothing I can do to change the outcome now but take care of myself but I can't help but feel like anything I do is going to be right or wrong - anyone else feel like this?

Hope everyone is coping ok! xxx

@West2401 I had my transfer this morning so you are a day ahead of me, I think this is going to be the longest two weeks of my life!!

@dragonfly1978 sending lots of luck your way! Were you 3 or 5dt? I had frozen transfer so have day 12 test. Everyone says 'just try not to think about it'...as if that's possible! 😂

@dragonfly1978 @West2401 exciting times ladies! Crossing everything for you :)

Just be nice to yourself, take it easy, and don't panic if you get a surge of period pain on day 4, apparently that may be a positive thing :)

@West2401 I had two five day blastocysts transferred, both of the highest grading. How about you??

Aw good luck @West2401 and @dragonfly1978 hope the TWW goes quickly for you

I’ve just had my scan and there was teeny sac. I was a bit naughty and told them i was 6 weeks today (I’m 5+5). She said I’m measuring 5 and a half weeks so she was bang on! I cried I’m so relieved. She said there’s no fluid in my uterus so the spotting is most likely my pessaries xxx

Hi everyone. I need your help, please. I got a call from the embryologist that 7 of my eggs fertilised but also that they're considering a day 3 transfer of 2 embryos.

I have a hard decision to make before Monday. I'm mainly worried about all the risks and complications you read about everywhere with multiple pregnancies so I can't decide shall I go for 1 or 2 embryos?

@Raggity19 ahhh brilliant news poppet, so glad you feel reassured, and you can see the progression on Friday :) xx

@EasterBunny7 I had 2 blasts and a slow 3rd not suitable for freezing... I put them all in no regrets and all that!
But it has to be a choice for you, I was comfortable with twins but freaked out about 3 (still don't know how many are in there 😳)

Are any suitable for freezing? If not I'd go for it, the what if would have driven me mad xx

@Freezerbump thanks! I'm trying to keep distracted, being a PT sitting still is not my forte! I actually had a bit of cramping earlier today and I'm feeling a bit sickly on and off but I think that's just the lubion (and nerves!)

@dragonfly1978 I only had one transferred as we didn't have the option to transfer two. I know it was really high grade but I honestly can't remember exactly what it was, three months after collection you sort of forget!

@Raggity19 so pleased it's good news for you!!!

@all well ladies, OTD has arrived and it's positive 😳
Now I can start panicking about the 7 week scan...

@Freezerbump woohoo congratulations!!!!

@Freezerbump

Wow, congratulations that could be three in there!

@Freezerbump fantastic news, so pleased for you!!!!

Congrats @Freezerbump 😀 so glad to see all the BFP’s on here :) xx

@BrandyM sorry hun I'm ok. Just really down. No transfer this month looking like January xx

@ivfhope3 thinking of you xxx

Sorry to be such a pain....did anyone exercise is the 2WW? I'm so used to training every day as a coach and just been walking the last few days but desperate to do something with my dumbbells or pilates. I just don't want to risk doing anything that could have a negative impact but not moving is making me so anxious 🤦🏻‍♀️

@West2401 no I didn’t. I think they recommend some exercise to get your blood flowing etc but I’ve been resting as been spotting. I think go for it if you can, I was just too scared which is ridiculous haha xx

@West2401 I have been told not to exercise just walking so think I will stick to that. I have a cross trainer at home that I thought about using but decided against it for the moment. It must be so hard for you though when you are so fit and used to exercising every day, could you ring your clinic and ask what they think??

@dragonfly1978 @Raggity19 thanks ladies, I'm just finding it so tough. It's not easy to manage my anxiety at the best of times so trying to do it through this without being able to move my body the way I usually would is not fun!
My clinic advised against it but also said it's a balance of mental and physical health, so if I can move my body and be smart about it (no core work) then it should be safe. I think I'll just take it day by day and see what I feel like doing. The next 9 days are going to drag....

@West2401 are you going to test early?? I was determined to try and make it to OTD but now am not sure I can wait that long!!

@dragonfly1978 I'm going to try my best to hold off. I've read that you can get false positives on HPT because of the extra hormones were taking and don't want to risk it. I'm not feeling overly positive today so trying to just keep my chin up. When's your test day?
