Yaaaayyy @Vparisi I thought of you today and just thought I’d check, over the moon for you! Amazing news! ✨✨✨✨🥰

GJW2018 · 05/11/2021 23:14

@Na1995 hiya, I had an FET with Guys and started weaning myself off the oestrogen and progesterone I think I went from 2 utrogestan a day to 1 for about two weeks from ten weeks and stopped at 12 weeks and with the oestrogen I went from 4 tablets a day to 3 at 10 weeks then down to 2 then 1 and eventually stopped by 12 weeks and all was ok! I’ll be 18 weeks tomorrow! Xx

Thanks all!! Unfortunately after 2 v positive tests last night I did the third one at bottom this morning plus the digital one and they are both BFNs :( feeling very crushed and no idea what it means as last night's looked pretty good.

@HereToLearnAndShare good luck, thinking of you!

Oh @Vparisi I was just coming on to send you a huge congrats and am absolutely gutted to see your update. You have been in my thoughts a lot lately and I’m so very sorry you’ve had to go through so much!

Weirdly, some women do get stronger tests in the evening rather than the morning (and digitals have a lot higher HCG cut off than other tests so show positive later). Is it your OTD today? I would ring the clinic and ask for a blood test as this will give you a much better idea of what’s going on. It could be a chemical (really hate that term, sorry!) or it could hopefully just be some dodgy tests this morning. 🤞🏼🙏🏻🤞🏼🙏🏻🤞🏼

I am sending you SO much love and a massive virtual hug. xxx

HereToLearnAndShare · 06/11/2021 11:16

@Vparisi oh no! I would do a blood test as @RiverRiot suggested before making a conclusion. It's very odd how you had 2 positive yesterday and a negative today. Try to call Guys and ask for advice. Sending you hugs 💞

@Vparisi 😔😔 soo sorry to see this, as people are saying go and get bloods done hun as last night the line was clearly there and it could be your hcg levels are better if an evening.

Thinking of you xx

canoechick · 06/11/2021 19:19

@Vparisi just catching up - I really think (and hope for you) that the positive are more likely to be correct over the negative , it’s prob just so early that any slight increased dilution makes it negative at the moment .

Recheck in another 24 hours?

canoechick · 06/11/2021 19:19

@HereToLearnAndShare good luck for test tomorrow , everything crossed for you

Sarah2328 · 06/11/2021 19:56

@HereToLearnAndShare good luck for tomorrow 🤞🏻🤞🏻 sending you positive vibes xx

HereToLearnAndShare · 07/11/2021 10:20

@HereToLearnAndShare yayyy I'm soo happy for you, congratulations, they are some very good strong lines. You must be over the moon. 💕😘 x

Etonmess20 · 07/11/2021 11:17

@Vparisi oh how confusing and stressful for you both- surely the two positive tests are picking something up. Are you going to speak to Guys to see what they suggest? Sending all the love your way xx

@HereToLearnAndShare beyond pleased for you, bet you're both over the moon xx

@Vparisi praying there is still some hope for you 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 Xxx

HereToLearnAndShare · 08/11/2021 08:58

@GJW2018 thank you so much! 🥰 I am considering doing a blood test and I rented to ask you as I remember you had to do some injections. Did you test hCG only?

@HereToLearnAndShare I am so happy for you congrats!

@Vparisi I am so sorry, this is so soul crushing. What did Guys said? Sending you much love.

GJW2018 · 08/11/2021 10:35

@HereToLearnAndShare yes I went to a private clinic in London and got my beta/hcg and progesterone tested as I’ve always had quite low progesterone. We were already under the clinic for complementary treatment but I think there are loads of private ones when you look online. I had one and then another two days later to see that it was doubling xxx

Sarah2328 · 08/11/2021 10:42

Hey everyone when did you stop taking progesterone presses, guys have told me to stop at 8 weeks, just a little worried and wondering when people stopped taking them? X

Etonmess20 · 08/11/2021 13:07

@Sarah2328 I stopped on 8 weeks too & all was fine. I know some people reduce it gradually but I didn't, I just stopped. The nurse was really reassuring at my guys scan so I felt comfortable with their instructions

Sarah2328 · 08/11/2021 13:10

@Etonmess20 argh perfect thanks for reassuring me 😁 x

canoechick · 08/11/2021 17:03

Negative here unfortunately. Will prob bow out of here until can try next round as quite sad at moment , But best of luck to everyone else

HereToLearnAndShare · 08/11/2021 17:15

@canoechick ah hun, I am so sorry to hear that! 😔 sending you hugs!
