Hi Smile
I started my stims on Wednesday as the beginning of my long protocol for my FET.

I am looking at end of October for my transfer 🤞🏻

I have PCOS and had ISCI for our treatment.
We have 4 blastocysts frozen!

Looking for any cycle buddies that are transferring around the same time 🙏

@IVFhadenough sorry to hear about the even more waiting. Completely understand it’s hard to hang on to hope - but I truly hope you have a miraculous turnaround and things head in the right direction over the next two weeks.

@Azahar8 thank you for asking. 6w+4 and I am feeling a little more tired than usual, maybe a little under the weather. But if I’m honest with myself I’m not having any specific symptoms which is causing me some worry. I know lots of women don’t. But no nausea, no sickeness, no sore boobs, no weird taste in my mouth Confused I guess I’ll know one way or another on thurs in the scan if things are progressing.

I remember in my 2ww I had some very mild cramping one evening - nothing since. Hope that means yours is a good sign.

Azahar8 · 09/11/2021 21:10

@IVFhadenough Thanks, I hope so! I have sore boobs as well but I get them every month after ovulation and never had a bfp.

@LemonyT Symptoms or no symptoms we always worry, don't we! It's great that your scan is so soon and I really hope it will reassure you!

IVFhadenough · 09/11/2021 21:33

@LemonyT thank you! That’s so sweet of you! I really hope so too, but I am fully prepared for the worst as I think we’re always on the back foot with this IVF stuff!

I will be keeping everything crossed for you with your impending scan! I hope the time flies by so you’re not left waiting for what feels like an eternity!

@Azahar8 ah okay! I don’t know what’s normal, as I don’t ovulate. So I am always hypersensitive after each transfer round! I have had some noticeable stuff going on, but I’m not sure if it’s progesterone/estrogen related

Holskey · 09/11/2021 22:38

@IVFhadenough I'm so sorry it's still not conclusive. It's strange you've had faint lines for so long without them getting stronger, but then they haven't gotten fainter either, so hopefully that's a good sign.

@Azahar8 thanks for asking, I have terrible morning sickness, but I'm not complaining. Just glad to be here. I still worry though - nausea doesn't mean everything will definitely be okay. How are you coping? 5dp5dt? Have you been tempted to POAS?

IVFhadenough · 10/11/2021 07:29

@Holskey that’s it! I did question whether I’ve been unfortunate with lots of evaps/indents, but I’m a part of a group and everyone has said that they’re most definitely not. I was hoping for bloods, just to clear things up… but they will not budge ☹️ I haven’t tested since FMU Monday, so I don’t know what’s going on with the lines now.

Azahar8 · 10/11/2021 08:06

@Holskey Sorry about the morning sickness, hope it's bearable! I'm going to test on the weekend, OTD is Monday. I don't have the strength to go through the rollercoaster of early testing and I need to stay motivated to take my meds... It's increasingly hard to cope but I try to stay distracted!

Sweet211 · 10/11/2021 13:11

@Azahar8 I’m not testing again Until the test day tommorrow I’m dreading it I’m so friggin scared i don’t want to let my husband down again. Ive been through ohss in my fresh cycle ended up in hospital for 2 weeks that was after the trigger shot and transfer after that I’ve had miscarriage at nearly 20 weeks. Then I’ve had failed fets and a chemical pregnancy back in 2015 in 2016 finally had a BFP this year had a failed FET back in feb.

That was my nhs round don’t know what I’ll do if it’s negative. Clomid never worked for me before that don’t know wether to go for clomid. I don’t know how much ivf costs These days. I’ll be really stuck on what to do.

Azahar8 · 10/11/2021 13:47

@Sweet211 I'm so sorry you've had such a difficult journey, it's really tough, but please don't feel like you are letting your husband down. You have been through a lot and kept trying. If it doesn't work it's totally not your fault! And you already succeeded once so there is hope! I have no experience with clomid, it was recommended to me for my pcos but then we discovered we also had male factor so ivf/icsi was the only option. You should still get a consultation at your clinic if your cycle hasn't worked and they can advise you on next steps. I have my fingers crossed for your test tomorrow!!

Holskey · 10/11/2021 14:11

@Sweet211 I'm so sorry to read of your horrible experiences, especially the 20 week loss 💔 You have absolutely NOT let your husband down! I hope you know that deep down. Look how hard you've tried even after everything you've been through. Nobody could ask for more. I hope you get good news tomorrow 🤞

Sweet211 · 10/11/2021 21:47

Thanks for responses wishing everyone luck 🍀 fingers crossed 🤞.

Sweet211 · 11/11/2021 06:09

It’s a BFN for me 😭 I’m just so upset right now I’ve not told my OH yet. Good luck to all you ladies you’re all strong stay positive it will happen it is a tough journey but worth it in the end. I’ve been trying so much Over the years for my LO to have a sibling. Baby dust to you all x

Azahar8 · 11/11/2021 07:32

@Sweet211 I'm so sorry, please be kind to yourself and take care! Flowers I'm here if you'd like to chat.

Holskey · 11/11/2021 11:30

I'm so sorry @Sweet211 💔 I hope you've told your OH and that he's giving you the love and support you deserve 💐

Azahar8 · 11/11/2021 15:11

@LemonyT I hope your scan went well today!

LemonyT · 11/11/2021 17:32

@Sweet211 I’m so sorry hun. I hope you’re ok and take comfort from your little one x

Thank you for asking @Azahar8. Just wanted to add a TW - as I know it might be painful for some atm:
It was emotional. Doctor found the gestational sac straight away and the yolk sac. And hiding behind that was the little one 🥲 They measured 1 day behind at 6+5 which they assured me was in tolerance, and heartbeat of 150bpm which is what they like to see. I know we’re not out of the woods yet but it was so precious to see. Most pregnant I’ve been in 4+ years so we’re over the moon!

I hope everyone else is holding on ok - I have my fingers crossed for all of you still waiting x

Azahar8 · 11/11/2021 17:52

@LemonyT That's wonderful, I am so happy for you! I imagine the anxiety never goes away completely but I do hope you will be able to enjoy your pregnancy now with less worry! And it gives hope to all of us that it can happen. xx

Azahar8 · 13/11/2021 09:28

I tested with a frer this morning at 9dpt and we are out.

LemonyT · 13/11/2021 10:52

@Azahar8 I’m so sorry lovely Flowers and I’m so sad to hear this. Take your time, feel what you need to. Sending you love and hugs x

Azahar8 · 13/11/2021 12:04

Thank you, @LemonyT. It's quite devastating. Sending you hugs too and best wishes x

Holskey · 13/11/2021 16:16

Bluemeadowbaby · 13/11/2021 18:06

@Azahar8 I'm so sorry to hear your sad news and sending so much solidarity. I got a positive on Tuesday and Wednesday and today was negative 😔 I feel so heartbroken x

Azahar8 · 13/11/2021 18:33

@Holskey Thanks Sad

@Bluemeadowbaby I'm so sorry you had to go through this. It must be crushing to get a negative after two bfps. My heart goes out to you, you're not alone x
