IVF/FET October/November 21

[2021babyhope]

I think I'm a bit early on some of the other threads so starting one for October/November 😊

1st fresh cycle in august ended in CP.

Booked for follow up consultation 30th September so hopefully I'll be able to transfer late October early November 🤞🏼

5 frozen blasts. Hoping to transfer 2 this time round but I'm not sure they'll let me 😬

Hi everyone

There are a few names on here I recognise just thought I'd jump in if that's okay.

Had trigger shot on 9th . EC on the 11th . Put 2 embryos back in on the 16th .

I had a bit of brown discharge end of last week. Breasts were really sore and tender the discharge stopped. I've done a test on Sunday CB digital and it was positive. Can't be trigger as that was over 2 weeks ago.

Done another today still positive . But the brown discharge has started again this afternoon, very faded /watery. And no more tender boobies . So im think am I having a chemical? I'm in a bit of a mess about it .

OTD tomorrow . So if I was loosing this would the test still show positive ? I don't have no cramps or any symptoms as per Dr Google.? 😕 I'm even frightened to test tomorrow now.

@VenusStarr congratulations 🎊 .

@justawannabemam I know it must be very alarming, but spotting is quite common, and if there isn't red blood then you can't assume it's a chemical. I would guess if it were a chemical, you'd still test positive, but the lines would eventually fade.

Test tomorrow, call the clinic and I am sure they'll have reassuring words for you

Hi everyone,
It's so lovely to find a group of ladies who are in the same boat! I had a transfer on October 5th and amazingly got a bfp on October 12th. Utterly shocked! 6 weeks tomorrow but having issues with crinone. Brown spotting the last few days after using it. Clinic said this is normal. Then this evening after I removed crinone applicator the were some red spots of blood on it. Miniscule but me being me, it's all I can think about. 2 weeks until scan at 8 weeks and it can't come soon enough. Crinone is the devil.

@Holskey

Thank you that's reassured me a bit

I'm not due to go for bloods or they've not mentioned it . Bc there's a shortage of bottles.

Yeh ive to ring between 8 and 9 .

I've took a few tests and I'm getting positives on the early detection ones and nothing on the first missed day, so it's picking up there's something there. I will go to bed shortly and keep my fingers crossed .
Where are you in your journey ?

@Justawannabemam with my chemical I never got a positive on a digital test so fingers crossed!!

@VenusStarr congratulations that’s amazing news. Hope you’re feeling ok.

I started my noristorene bleed earlier than I expected so I’m now on day 3 of menophur. I was so ill on my last fresh so hoping this one goes better.

@Mancbear88 sorry for your loss. Thank you for your words. Means alot . X

Good luck for your cycle how long are you on the meds for ?

Is anyone on or around day 8 on stims ?

I'm feeling rather uncomfortable 😣 can't remember how I felt first time around

I have a scan tomorrow so I'll ask my nurse but I'm just a bit worried as I developed OHSS last time and I'm hoping it's not the start of it

I feel bloated and my stomach is quite large but sore to touch
Google says it's all normal lol!

Just wondered how everyone else who's stimming is feeling?

X

@Ciroseo could that not be irritation from the insertion. ?

Is this your first cycle ? Apologises if you posted your journey I've not had a read through all the posts.

Hiya @Justawannabemam!
The clinic has assured me that it is just irritation from the crinone but I feel a bit sick every time I see the spotting.

We have multiple IUI's to no success and then moved onto a cycle of IVF. We managed to get 5 embryos! Our first one did not take but this one seems to have! 6 weeks tomorrow. Counting down the days to the scan at 8 weeks. It's exciting but terrifying!

@Ciroseo ouh sounds promising. Keep doing what you are and I'm sure it will all be good.

It's our first cycle . And ive kinda set my heart on it working which I know I shouldn't have bc it's so unpredictable. I've brought my self to bed. I think the earlier I fall asleep the earlier testing day will be here. .

When is official testing day @Justawannabemam?

Wishing you lots of love and luck! I didn't have any symptoms before I tested. I was convinced it hadn't worked.

@Ciroseo tomorrow .🙄.

Well I felt like I had some symptoms but they seem to have eased off a bit now. What you are saying is music to my ears .x 😄 🤣 . I found that on the early detection tests they are positive but on the regular first missed day ones they arent . I've got one to do from the clinic tomorrow so we will see what it brings I've got a CB digi too

@VenusStarr oh wow! Congratulations!
@strawberrysummer19 I'm day 8 today (I'm injecting at night though so I've not had today's yet). I had a scan day 6 and again today. Next one Friday. I actually feel ok? I keep getting a bit of wind but nothing I can't deal with. I am getting odd twinges which I'm wondering if that's my ovaries. I have been going for acupuncture but she did say tonight that from here in I'll likely start feeling bloated more and uncomfortable. And it'll probably be worse later in the day?

@Justawannabemam omg tomorrow! Its nearly here! 🤞

Wishing you so much luck @Justawannabemam!!
Is this your first transfer?

I really had no symptoms. Some slight cramping which I took as a sign that it hadn't worked. I had cramping on my first negative transfer.

@paintfairy hi you're similar with dates to me then. I'm day 9 but have had 8 days stims

I'm glad i have a scan tomorrow as I can ask about the uncomfortable feeling and see how the folicles are doing. They were slow to grow last time and I ended up stimming for 14 days and had to buy more menopur! Xx

@strawberrysummer19 hopefully that won't happen this time! I hope tomorrow goes well. I think they'll probably say it's normal, but it isn't much fun.

@Ciroseo yeh first one . Got 6 eggs . 4 matured . 2 fertilised. Both bk in . Not sure what we will do if unsuccessful. Low numbers on eggs so I'm not sure if they'd be keen to give us another go. 40 is cut off n I reach it in August just gone

Congratulations @VenusStarr

@Justawannabemam this sounds positive! Keep us posted and good luck for tomorrow.

I hear you on the age. I'm 39 and even though we got lucky this time, I was starting to near the end of the road. I felt like I just couldn't keep putting myself through it over and over again.

You two little embryos are in there doing their thing. Keep the faith ❤

@Justawannabemam sounds positive I have my fingers crossed for you!!

@paintfairy I hope I can EC as it was very touch n go last time so fingers crossed these feelings are all normal and they are growing nicely x

My transfer was 18th and OTD is Friday. Got a bfp on Sunday, like you. It's early days for us both. I won't be having a blood test either, so we just have to hope the numbers are right 🤞 Maybe tell your clinic about your negative tests too. Maybe they would do a blood test in those circumstances?? Maybe not, but might be worth a try. Fingers crossed for you 🤞

Hey, just came across this post. I had a FET on Monday, but today I realised I have not been taking the right amount of pessaries. I should of been taking 2x 200mg 2 times a day and I have been taking 1x 200 mg 2 times a day. I am worried I have messed everything up. My clinic has told me just to start adding the extra 2 pessaries in but I'm so worried.

Well I woke up super early bursting for a wee. So I snook downstairs and done it. And there it is . A line, a very faint line but a lines a line right ? I had a CB digital as a back up and it went into error mode typical. Might grab one later in town.
