@6543336787gesgvjhg oh no. I don't know if this helps but my sister bled with her pregnancies and all the children were healthy and normal. They said some people can bleed throughout. Id wait for your results and see what the Dr says. I know its hard but try not to worry it could be normal x

Sungirl11 · 08/07/2021 19:50

@6543336787gesgvjhg hey! I'm so sorry for this scare! I've had friends that have bled due to having a fissure or something that can rupture and bleed at any time. But nothing to do with the baby, just something that was already there and with pressure and changes it just ruptures and bleeds.
Really hope it's something like this or nothing important and your baby is super healthy and strong. Big hugs ❤️💪🏻

@PurpleUnicorn01 @Sungirl11 thank you both. As the days gone on it's got less and less so hopefully in the morning there's nothing there. Thank you both for your reassurance xx

@6543336787gesgvjhg all will be well. Stay positive.

Did you guys have normal periods when you were on down regs. I have some spotting now which is usually when im on period but its so light.

Lou8319 · 11/07/2021 06:45

@PurpleUnicorn01 I didn’t do down regs I’m afraid. Straight into the ovaleap for me.

Lclarke111 · 14/07/2021 19:32

Hey all, so sorry for the late update, we transferred 12 days ago and we have got positive tests since day 10, so off to the clinic for our bloods on Friday!! So happy and had to share with you all xxx been so hard watching you all months ahead x

Sungirl11 · 14/07/2021 20:04

@Lclarke111 congrats!! Let us know how beta goes 😍😍

Lclarke111 · 14/07/2021 20:49

@Sungirl11 will do, been having a sharp pain in my right side tonight but clinic said normal stretching pains so only 2 days to go to find out for sure x

Sungirl11 · 14/07/2021 20:53

@Lclarke111 yes all normal! I still have them today

PurpleUnicorn01 · 14/07/2021 22:56

@Lclarke111 congratulations!!! So do they tell you to do a home test first?

6543336787gesgvjhg · 15/07/2021 00:17

@Lclarke111 yeyyy! Congratulations!! Very good news.

Yes I still get the pains now. Especially on my right side. They said it's my ovary. It's still jabs now from been stimulated.

Lclarke111 · 15/07/2021 04:12

@6543336787gesgvjhg I did wonder if it was my ovary, when they scanned the transfer she pushed really hard on my right side with such a full bladder and it really hurt afterwards and I wondered if it was ovary pain and maybe I had twisted it xx

@PurpleUnicorn01 yes they told me to wait until tomorrow day 14 but I started to feel a little nausea day 9 so I did it day 10, 11 & 12 and then I go for bloods Friday but had I not tested myself earlier they would have made me wait until Monday for bloods and I didn't want that, so I called early hahaha x

6543336787gesgvjhg · 15/07/2021 10:36

@Lclarke111 I am now 18 weeks and still get pain on right - where most the follicles/ eggs were.

@PurpleUnicorn01 yes our clinic was the same. I was told to test 12th April. Transfer was 30th March (5day) and we tested the 10th at 4am!! And got a very strong positive on all tests!

Xx

Exciting

Lou8319 · 15/07/2021 19:31

@Lclarke111 congratulations. I also had stabbing pain til 7 weeks. I kept worrying I was ectopic , but all was fine. Just a rather large ovary.

Lclarke111 · 15/07/2021 20:01

@Lou8319 thank you, it is still there but a lot calmer today so may have just pushed on it awkwardly but I agree it is probably the hormones playing with my ovaries x

PurpleUnicorn01 · 19/07/2021 18:54

Hi guys i hope you are well. Quick question. How do they date your embryo? Is day 1 the day of your egg collection?

6543336787gesgvjhg · 19/07/2021 19:49

@PurpleUnicorn01 starts from the following day as they check if fertilised the day after collection.

OP posts:
6543336787gesgvjhg · 19/07/2021 19:50

@PurpleUnicorn01 I had collection 25.03.2021 transfer 30.03.2021

OP posts:
Sungirl11 · 19/07/2021 21:25

@PurpleUnicorn01 yes as @6543336787gesgvjhg says! Mine was collection on 20/04 and transfer on 25/04 and it was a 5day embryo.

How are you doing? How are you feeling? X

Lou8319 · 19/07/2021 22:17

Our collection was 17.03 and transfer of 5 day embryo was 22.03

PurpleUnicorn01 · 19/07/2021 22:27

Thank you all that's helpful. Im on day 1 of stims today im on 300 iu of menapur. I think they started me on a high dose due to my borderline AMH.

PurpleUnicorn01 · 24/07/2021 19:21

Hi all, how are you all? Im on day 6 of stims but i feel like im getting a slight pain on my left side. I assume it's because the ovary is getting bigger? Did any of you guys get anything like this?

PurpleUnicorn01 · 24/07/2021 22:29

Random question. I hope you are all okay. When is the earliest any of you got a bfp after transfer?

ExpectantTwinMum2022 · 25/07/2021 07:35

Hi @PurpleUnicorn01 I hope you are doing okay. I also felt sore where my ovaries are during stims, it is completely normal. I got my very faint BFP 7dp5dt (it's twins so may of showed this early because of that too), I honestly wish I had waited until the set date as I was then testing everyday to make sure it stayed positive.
