Starting this thread early!

We've just booked for our second round to start August 2nd with egg collection September 8th.

I was on the Jan/Feb thread earlier this year.

Come join me :)

@Novavee @2mumsandason wow your results are amazing! I expect a high drop off rate for mine.

Still a bit bloated today, needing pain meds to help. But feel much better than yesterday thank god!

Hope you recover and are back to normal soon.

I haven't managed a number 2 yet... (soz TMI)

I’ve had some light pink spotting. Def light pink and not like a period. I don’t know whether to think 👍🏽 Or shit. 7dp5dt

@foodiefil sounds like it could be implantation bleeding, but I have no experience with that! Fingers very tightly crossed that it's a good sign - I guess you'll have to see if it stops, gets heavier, changes, etc

Great numbers of embryos all around @ngy21 @2mumsandason and @Novavee!!
Sending lots of patience to those who don't get a Day 3 update, and I hope you all feel much more comfortable and the pain subsides soon!

@ngy21 I had really suffered with constipation the first time round, and had one of the most painful nights ever... I'd suggest you get some over the counter meds (I took lactulose) and start taking some if you don't see any movement tomorrow, but I hope you will xx

Congratulations on EC results @Novavee @ngy21 @2mumsandason ! Everything crossed they keep strong until ET.

Curious to know what cycle everyone is on if you don't mind sharing?

I'm awaiting my post consultation meetings from our first unsuccessful round on NHS but unfortunately it's a long wait 4-6 weeks!

ngy21 · 18/09/2021 22:39

@beachbum85 thanks I will look into that! Still nothing today... and my gut is getting uncomfortable I think Cus I need to empty (again soz TMI..) fingers crossed for you tomorrow! Keep us posted 😊

@MollyVanDer thanks! This is my first round of IVF with the NHS

foodiefil · 18/09/2021 23:42

@beachbum85 thanks 😊 it’s the same. My nerves are shattered.

@MollyVanDer this is our second cycle x

Hello- I've been quiet on here since I got knocked out of the game for now with my BFN a couple of weeks ago, but have been reading the thread and wanted to send congratulations to those who've tested positive and lots of love to those who haven't had the outcome we all yearn for this time around

So happy to see your news this morning @beachbum85 xx

foodiefil · 19/09/2021 10:09

@KatRee I’m sorry. Hope you’re doing ok. Are you planning to go again? Hope you’re looking after yourself. It’s painful. And the hope, the hope can break your heart xx

beachbum85 · 19/09/2021 10:41

Thank you so much ladies - I really appreciate all the support throughout ❤️

@foodiefil I know exactly how you feel.. I was a mess yd and could barely sleep... We had a ClearBlue one that the clinic gave us, and we left it there for 3mins so I'm not sure how quickly it came up as my partner wouldn't let me look haha then a digital one that came up with 2-3 weeks

@SerendipitySunshine I feel super excited right now, although I know it's early days, and physically well thanks - I have a few cramps that I've had for some days now and sore boobs but that's all!

beachbum85 · 19/09/2021 10:43

@KatRee thanks for popping back in, I know how extremely hard it is when it hasn't worked and I'm sorry. Sending you lots and lots of love xx

foodiefil · 19/09/2021 11:20

Thanks @beachbum85 we’re buying our test today. If we’d had it in the house it would be too much temptation.
Enjoy this happy exciting time ❤️ So thrilled for you xxx
