IVF/FET October/November 21 part 2

[paintfairy]

The other thread is full so I'm hoping everyone will find this!

Mine is on Apple Watch so I will have a look back at the resting heart rate history.
Maybe they will get you in before they close, a couple of days early can’t hurt. That would be a nice Christmas present 🤞🏼

@Hufflepuff1 my rhr always increases in my LP. I got a dip around implantation and then it went back up. And it's stayed up. Usually it drops before AF so it was a clue for me.

@Hufflepuff1 same for me as well - my Garmin app shows me my RHR is usually around 47-48bpm and now it's around 60!

Ah brilliant I thought I was the only one going nuts and making a mental note of it. It's hasn't gone up massively but it has increased and there are times when it thinks I'm fat burning when I'm actually just sat down. I will take it as a good sign 🤞

@makeithappen2022 I have to test again Sunday at 17dp5dt to be sure sure and let clinic know then yep they will book me in for early scan 😬 and nope it's still the longest time of my life 🤣 I think once I've had scan I might be able to relax a little bit but I'm so nervous every single day I'm a nightmare worrier. I didn't wait until day 10 like clinic said I did it on day 7 so feels even longer to reach next stage 🤣

@Hufflepuff1
@makeithappen2022
You both have done so well waiting till OTD I'm keeping everything crossed for you both xx

@CycleGirl20 I'm hoping it's either a really strong singleton or that both my embies have stuck 🤞 I'm just so scared to get excited about dark in case I'm on cloud 9 and fall back down to earth with a bump. I really wanna be excited. I've tested everyday more than once a day 🤣🤣🤣

@CycleGirl20 I'm sure all is fine maybe hcg just hasn't quite made it yet to be at the 2-3 weeks point. When should your blood results be back? X

@Infertilitywarrior my blood results are back later today. I keep testing too. I got my strong positive in the afternoon saving up for 4 hours then poas. Trying that again today and at least I can match that to my bloods and see if it's getting darker

@CycleGirl20 good luck with your blood results and hopefully todays test is darker too 🤞

@Infertilitywarrior thank you. Betas at 220 11dp5dt so I'm happy ☺️

@CycleGirl20 fantastic! Been waiting for this update! So pleased.

@Infertilitywarrior thank you - I can’t believe it myself. 2 sleeps! Good to know haha… I bet it seems to be ages. My clinic does a 6 week scan which I think is quite good but they don’t do the bloods. They are all so different aren’t they.

Great news @CycleGirl20 💜💜

@Infertilitywarrior interesting you say that re 6 week scan, is the heartbeat detected then? My clinic wait until 7 I think. Really hope we get there 🤞

@CycleGirl20 great news
@Hufflepuff1 my clinic do a scan sometime between day 35 and 45 after transfer so what's that 7 weeks I think?
@makeithappen2022 I don't think my clinic do bloods either but would be nice if they did xx

OK I'm sorry if I am being literally so needy on this thread but please help! I've been feeling a bit stronger cramping today (I've been cramping on and off all the way through) and now when I just went to the toilet and wiped there's a small amount of brown blood is this normal? Should I be worried? I've done a test today and line is still beautifully strong but what on earth is happening when I wipe? (Tmi sorry) please someone tell me that I don't need to worry I am actually sitting here crying worried 😭

I'm using progesterone rectally so don't think it can be that x

@Infertilitywarrior how far after transfer are you? The fact that it's brown I don't think you have to worry as its not red? And you still have strong lines too, have you used a clear blue digital that shows the weeks? X

@Infertilitywarrior don’t worry, it’s brown blood so old. Implantation bleeding is normally around the time your period is due. Just keep an eye on it. Thinking of you as I know how worrying it can be but try not to stress from it xx

@Hufflepuff1 I'm 15dp5dt. Used a clear blue yesterday or weds and said 2-3 weeks. I literally am so scared 😭 I can't have another loss xx

@makeithappen2022 I'm about 5 days after when my period was due so could this brown blood still be implantation bleeding? Is it not too late for implantation bleeding? I'm too scared to even check again 😭

It’s could be as needs to work it’s way through. How is your tummy feeling? Maybe you could flag to your clinic first thing tomorrow and they may run some bloods in the morning for you to see where your levels are and hopefully put your mind at ease

What do you mean how is tummy feeling? Do you mean cramps or something else? I've got some cramping which isn't really any different to any other day I've felt cramping and that's it xx

@Infertilitywarrior I know you have mc anxiety and trust me I know exactly how you feel. Let's look at the facts, your clear blue is on track to where you are at the moment so that's brilliant. You've been having cramps throughout and still had strong positives which have obviously got stronger as you are now on 2-3 on the digital weeks. It is not red blood so like @makeithappen2022 said its brown so old blood. There are a lot of people who bleed a lot during pregnancy especially in the first trimester. I know that doesn't help your anxiety but try not to worry until it is red or heavy. Your clinic will reassure you of this further so definitely give them a call as soon as you can. Fingers crossed it all calms down for you now 🤞🤞

@Hufflepuff1 @makeithappen2022
Thank you even just hearing others not panic helps me calm slightly
I'm so desperate to not feel that feeling again like the loss last time
I'm going to rest up try and get a good night's sleep and hope tomorrow brings a good day with no red blood 🤞 I'll give my clinic a call soon as I can aswell
Xxxxx
