@Bubbafever how flexible are the nurses around timing? So they told us up to a 3 month wait, which takes us to mid June but my cycle starts at beginning of the month and am quite keen to start in September not October

They were quite flexible for me. They asked my next few period dates and I said one of them will be a nightmare because of work commitments so they went with my chosen time (though that was the latest).

Hello, hope you’re all doing ok.

I’m waiting for a call from the embryologist today after they’ve thawed my embryos hopefully for transfer 😬I just really want to know when we’re doing now!

Plantsandcoffee · 01/07/2022 15:18

@Starlight2022 fingers crossed for positive news for you today!

Feeling a bit wobbly today. I'm now 6dp5dt I have zero symptoms. I've managed not to test so far so at least...

Is anyone else in the wait? Hope every one is doing ok. Xx

Morning all,

Been up since the crack of dawn. We've caved and did a test last night and tests this morning which look good at the mo! ✨✨

We had FET so no trigger shot to confuse things I don't think. So will these tests be right... I can't actually believe it it's all so unreal... surely too good to be true! So emotional!

Ah congratulations @Plantsandcoffee

thislittlebird · 04/07/2022 20:03

Congratulations! @Plantsandcoffee

Really can't imagine ever getting to that point right now after the first failure, but I so hope we do. First scan is Thursday for this FET, anyone else in and out of Guys at the moment?

Starlight2022 · 04/07/2022 20:16

I’m in for transfer day tomorrow 🙋

thislittlebird · 04/07/2022 20:24

@Starlight2022 good luck! Let us know how you get on. Is your partner attending?

Starlight2022 · 04/07/2022 20:52

Thanks! Yeah he probably will, they’ve said he can. Hope your scan goes well on Thursday!

Plantsandcoffee · 04/07/2022 21:04

Thank you @thislittlebird best of luck for Thursday! ✨ it's will happen✨

@Starlight2022 thanks! good luck for transfer day

Xx

thislittlebird · 05/07/2022 18:34

I hope so 😬@Plantsandcoffee

@Starlight2022 hope today went well!

Hello everyone, we are also at guys, we have just received our plan for our FET,
Everything is so exciting, this will be our second try as our first fresh embryo wasn't successful. But hey we can always try again which we will be this month 🙂 just waiting on the medication and our cycle to start.

How is everyone else doing?
Hope all goes well for everyone Flowers

Welshpea · 06/07/2022 21:35

@Starlight2022 hope your transfer went well! xx

Starlight2022 · 07/07/2022 12:48

Thanks @Welshpea!
The less said about the actual transfer the better 😆it’s the third one I’ve had, never had a problem before but this one wasn’t great. Anyway I’m now 2dp5dt and feel super sick with a horrible headache that I’m trying not to feel too optimistic about! I’m sure it’s just the cyclogest though!
Hope everyone else is feeling well.

Welshpea · 08/07/2022 11:43

Oh my goodness @Welshpea

Congratulations!!

Welshpea · 08/07/2022 12:52

@Plantsandcoffee Thank you

I am so shocked - I have covid and this morning my boobs felt weird so i literally just did one on the off chance as I am due on my period today

Have you told Guys about your positive ? when have they booked you in for a scan?

L4ur4Loui5e84 · 08/07/2022 14:12

@Welshpea oh my goodness congratulations that’s amazing!! And naturally as well….that’s wonderful news 🌟

L4ur4Loui5e84 · 08/07/2022 14:12

@Welshpea funny isn’t it when you’re waiting for it you’re looking for all the signs, physically etc and then suddenly it can just happen

Bubbafever · 08/07/2022 16:06

Congratulations Welshpea! That is amazing news!

Plantsandcoffee · 08/07/2022 20:03

@Welshpea so amazing! You must be over the moon! Has it sunk in?

Yeah I told guys and I have my scan on 28.07. I'm not sure if I should also tell my GP in the meantime

Welshpea · 09/07/2022 12:39

Thank you all! @Bubbafever @L4ur4Loui5e84

@Plantsandcoffee No absolutely not! I went and bought more tests this morning.
I have to go into Guys on Monday to get bloods to measure HCG because of my previous pregnancy so hope it's a good figure then if all good i'm gonna refer my self to my local hospital as going into london is time consuming and expensive!

That's great you've got a date for your scan ! Hope the time goes quickly for you

Starlight2022 · 09/07/2022 17:13

This is so great @Welshpea! huge congratulations 😁

Welshpea · 12/07/2022 14:53

Thanks @Starlight2022 ! Just went up to Guys to get my blood done - fingers crossed it's a good number 🙏
