@Justawannabemam Apparently it's too early to see on scan, so will have to wait until 1st preg scan. I'm praying it's twins 😃 Good luck with yours! Xx

So to recap I had 3 eggs. I've done the ET with a 4BB with embryo glue just now.
1 didn't make it and the other still growing but will know tomorrow if it can be frozen.

Justawannabemam · 16/02/2022 14:51

@NaomiNatNat ahh fab so we are both 4BB transferees.

Be amazing if u had two . Would they be identical? . Stop having intercourse woman you'll be ending up with 3 😂😂

Mochii · 16/02/2022 15:29

@NaomiNatNat this has blown my mind 😂 are you transferring a 5 day embryo on a fresh cycle? So you did the trigger, had the eggs removed, and now you’re on day 5?

@Justawannabemam I think identical twins are only when the embryo has split, which couldn’t be the case here unless the one that was transferred today splits

Gigi89x · 16/02/2022 16:06

Has anyone had any sharp pains whilst on stims? Im on day 8 and every so often i'm getting a sharp stab in my left ovary. I informed my clinic and the nurse told me to take paracetamol and shes going to ring me back later to see how I'm doing. She also informed my consultant about it. Getting a little worried :-(

thislittlebird · 16/02/2022 16:10

@Gigi89x I had it once on day 10 and they told me it was normal an to take paracetamol

Dizzyhedgehog · 16/02/2022 16:27

Had my ET this afternoon. Out of the 9 eggs collected, 7 could be fertilised. Unfortunately, only two of them made it to morula stage on day 5. 😕 They transferred them today but chances are pretty low. The others had developed even more slowly. We had a similar problem last time and my little morula didn't make it then, either.

xreadytoglow · 16/02/2022 16:44

What a turn of events @NaomiNatNat ! Hope everything went well.

@foodiefil welcome!! I'm just a day behind you. Everything crossed for your little embies. 🤞🏼

@Gigi89x I had a fullness feeling with my stims and an uncomfortableness. Then after my follicle scan I had quite a bit of sharp stabby pains also to my left. I don't think it's anything to be concerned about.

@thislittlebird sounds like a good plan so that you're body is healthy and ready. Get well soon and hope it all goes well for you when you start back up again.

@Dizzyhedgehog fingers crossed to you. It's not over till it's over. Nourish yourself, stay active and rest when needed knowing you've done everything you can do 🤍 I hope your luck changes for this cycle x

Eggbert83 · 16/02/2022 16:52

@Gigi89x I didn't have pain but lots of discomfort and little spasms. I thought it may be more to do with intestines than ovaries as there is a lot packed into a small amount of space down there so with the ovaries being so full they might be annoying other bits and pieces. Hot water bottle became my best friend both before and after EC. Peppermint oil capsules also helped.

Gigi89x · 16/02/2022 16:56

@thislittlebird & @xreadytoglow - Thanks both, i was googling online and getting results for OHSS, hoping it isnt that.

@xreadytoglow you said you had pain after your follicle scan, the sharp pains I'm having also increased after my scan this morning!

Bluehawaii29 · 16/02/2022 17:02

Hey guys just wanted to know peoples experience of lining scan on their frozen cycle. I’ll be doing mine on day 12 but after my call with consultant today she was saying if not ready on Friday my medication would need to be upped and next scan would be 5-7 days later! She said in some cases people have 3-4 weeks on the oestrogen before transfer is ready which has freaked me out!

xreadytoglow · 16/02/2022 17:09

@Gigi89x I think it might be from the poking around that might cause it? If it helps I got 12 mature eggs from it and I definitely don't think I have OHSS so try not to panic.

Mochii · 16/02/2022 17:40

@Bluehawaii29 I did my scan on day 10 and transfer was about a week after I think. They could see the triple lining on day 10 and it was over 8mm. I started estrogen on day 2

@Gigi89x I had that, but I did develop OHSS later on so just be firm with your clinic if it becomes excruciating

womaninkent · 16/02/2022 17:41

@Bluehawaii29. The first FET my lining wasn't thick enough at the first scan so they upped the oestrogen and rescanned about 5 days later. At the next scan the increase hadn't really made a difference but they decided to go forward to ET. This time they started me on the higher dose of oestrogen and the lining was thick enough at the first scan. I think people have said before on this thread that there is a wide range of opinions on how thick the lining needs to be. Got my fingers crossed yours will be ok at the first scan.

Bluehawaii29 · 16/02/2022 18:02

@Mochii @womaninkent thanks for sharing, yeah I’m just praying it’s as close as possible to 8mm on Friday, then if I have to increase it to get it a bit thicker at least I won’t be so worried all week if it’s going to get there on the re scan. looks like it’s harder in cases of ‘lazy lining” to get it optimal even with increased meds sometimes

NaomiNatNat · 16/02/2022 18:30

@Mochii I'm lost tbh 🤣 for now it's this morning I tested positive + symptoms and this afternoon I did ET 😅 my OTD is 28th Feb..all I can do is hope for the best. Partner is freaking out bless him ❤

@xreadytoglow I will be ok fingers crossed, what day xx

@Justawannabemam wow you had 4BB too, apparently that's good quality. Haha no more canoodling for us for a while 😅 Good luck with yours 💕

NaomiNatNat · 16/02/2022 18:31

@xreadytoglow I meant to say what a day

Mochii · 16/02/2022 18:40

@NaomiNatNat you would have to test positive from the trigger shot though. I still don’t understand why you this this means you’re pregnant. The trigger shot is a high does of hcg which would still be traceable now if you are only on day 5.

Justawannabemam · 16/02/2022 18:50

YUP @NaomiNatNat i transferred 2 x 4BB on Monday.

NaomiNatNat · 16/02/2022 18:50

@Mochii No idea the nurse said maybe an egg slipped out somewhere during treatment 🤷🏼‍♀️ or it could just be the trigger. Might be wrong, but it really doesn't matter now. I'm just going with it

Justawannabemam · 16/02/2022 18:52

@NaomiNatNat sent you a message

Bluehawaii29 · 16/02/2022 19:09

@Justawannabemam @NaomiNatNat you guys are making me excited about getting my 4BBs on board now haha. I hope we have some luck with them. My transfer date is still unknown though but good luck with everything xx

crazycatlady1981 · 16/02/2022 19:24

@xreadytoglow excellent news on your embabies!! 😀

@Dizzyhedgehog sorry to hear about your drop off, but keeping my fingers crossed for you!

@NaomiNatNat wow! What an exciting day! Fingers crossed!!

Justawannabemam · 16/02/2022 19:27

@Bluehawaii29 I hope so

I dont know what I should feel like. I'm not showing any symptoms I have a bit of a achy tummy but I'm not sure if thats just the needles. My stomach is very tender. I don't think there's a part of it that hasn't been pricked.

NaomiNatNat · 16/02/2022 19:27

@Bluehawaii29 BBs have about the same chances as AAs I've read somewhere 🙂 Good luck ❤

crazycatlady1981 · 16/02/2022 19:30

@Bluehawaii29 I didn’t have a single scan during my fet! It was natural cycle so no meds, but I was horrified that there was no monitoring at all, just left me to test for LH surge at home and then they just popped it in on transfer day without knowing if my lining was good or not! 🙈
