@LKSF
@coops
@Dobcaty @Hopefortansy85

It won't let me add anymore for some reasons the threads filling up so thought I'd make a new one x

@Coops0406 in hope everything goes well today 🤞🏻 X

@PMAmostofthetime thank you! Can't believe you are 5 weeks pregnant already! 😍

@Hopefortansy85 thank you so much. I hope you see some good positive lines when you test tomorrow 🤞🏾don't lose hope, some people's do show a little bit later than others. Got everything crossed for you.

@LKSF yes they come and go- I've decided to keep myself sane that I will test once a week until scan/ no more.

I'm constantly scared to wipe when I go to the toilet incase AF suddenly shows.
I have spoken to some others on here who got BFP's when I did my last cycle and they advised that they had all sorts of cramps and still do at 20 weeks- so that's reassured me a little.

@Coops0406 let us know how it goes x

Sorry @Dobcaty I tagged the wrong person!! @Coops0406 good luck for today 🤞🏼🤞🏼

@PMAmostofthetime I done a test again this morning because after having no cramps last night I was worried I had just made the whole thing up 🙈

@LKSF thank you 🥰

@PMAmostofthetime will do. Just hoping it defrosts okay this morning 🤞🏾

@LKSF I know that feeling.

Some nights are worse than others my clinic said that it's the hormones causing our ovaries to swell and push, change of bowel movements also pushing and the little embroyo growing and stretching things.
I still panic though x

@PMAmostofthetime thanks for the recommendation, talked w them this morning, they don't have in stock (said their web doesn't follow live updates). Also phoned up a few pharmacies in Newport and Cardiff, none of them have in stock currently and their suppliers don't have information of the next availability. I will ask my clinic for alternatives, when I call them this afternoon...oh gosh, I said to DH last night that it was so nice to talk with these ppl, they were so kind and apologetic. In our country you would never ever experience this kindness...

@Coops0406 good luck today!

@Hopefortansy85 how are you?

@Dobcaty I'm in the same boat, also need Buserelin for my cycle! But not for a while yet I don't think I'll need it till September. I hope you get some in time 🤞🤞

@Herewegoagain881 thank you, I even tried to call the manufacturer in Frankfurt...premium number haha
In the meantime I got a call from the clinic, they don't want to switch for another medicine as they don't have experience with it. So it's waiting and hoping this will be solved in the next 17 days.

@Dobcaty thanks for asking, tired, emotional and hungry, not necessarily in that order. I’m going to leave test to OTD and next time I’m NOT testing early. Too stressful. And I’m exhausted from the negativity. My parents have been pretty negative the past few days telling me I have to keep in mind I might never have a baby and that’s fed my spiralling, I think they thought they were managing my expectations. Not remembering I live in my own life and I’m a grown up woman!

@Dobcaty jist read your message above I’m sorry I can believe that there is no medication anywhere, how can this be left to happen. I really hope it gets to you in time! It doesn’t help with the stress of it all does it!

@Dobcaty thank you!
I can't believe there is a lack of medication! I know my first cycle last year there was no cyclogest available so they were using utrogestran but to not have one of the main ones is really quite poor! I hope a delivery comes in soon enough for you!

Embaby on board 🥰 our blast defrosted nicely and bounced back to an expanded blast...was just starting to hatch. It was the clearest picture on screen we've seen with our embryos! And our nurses are just amazing, you can just tell that they are wanting it for us too. So now it's 11 days of resting until OTD!

@Hopefortansy85 Oh hun it’s so shit when family and friends offer there unwanted opinions! But you can prove them wrong when you do have a baby in your life ❤️
This journey is such an emotional rollercoaster and no one will ever understand if you’re not on it!! Good idea not to test until Sunday….it’s not long!🤞🏼

@PMAmostofthetime Did you look into getting your HCG tested? It could be worth just asking your GP? i had my second bloods taken today with my local GP….annoying because I won’t get results back straight away but atleast they don’t charge. Might be worth giving them a call and asking?

@Dobcaty- Sorry you have not gotten anywhere do you want to try my clinic and see if you can just buy meds from them- it's the Wales Fertility Institute- Cardiff and Neath.

@Hopefortansy85 That's awful sorry your having a tough time. TBH that's one of the reasons I've kept our journey a secret me and OH know and my boss (who's been through it herself)

@Coops0406 Congratulations on being PUPO!!!!!

This time I refused to bend or lift anything other than a drink and I really think it helped.

@LKSF My GP refused 🙄- I have a phone call appointment with the clinic tomorrow.

X

@Dobcaty have you tried fertility2u online? Sorry I’m sure you have already but that’s where I got all my drugs from. Is it worth calling other ivf clinics to see if you can buy from them? Although if there’s a shortage I guess they won’t want too 🙄

@PMAmostofthetime oh really how annoying! Worth a try though, your clinic might be able to suggest something, or could you maybe say it’s causing you anxiety and see if they’ll do it for you 🤞🏼

@Coops0406 Ahh yay, congratulations on being PUPO. 🙏🏻

Thanks girls, I might call your clinic tomorrow @PMAmostofthetime, but I feel the chance they have any non expired medicine is slim. @LKSF I tried fertility2u a few days ago, they didn't have any. Everybody -including my own clinic, Stork, Neon ( the distributor) said call back next week, they might have more info by then.

@Coops0406 congratulations being PUPO! Hope you have a relaxing time, and enjoy!

@Hopefortansy85 I wish Sunday to come fast! I have everything crossed for you, and sorry for those comments you got from your parents.

@Dobcaty ah so annoying! Fingers crossed they get some in ASAP!!!

girls I need some input/advise/reassurance, so I had my HCG and progesterone levels tested 3days ago-levels were perfect! I had them re-tested 2days later and I’ve just got the results. My HCG has doubled which is good but my progesterone has dropped 😭 my clinic is shut for the whole of August so they take longer to reply!! I’m getting so anxious right now!!!!

@LKSF Are you on any progesterone? X

@PMAmostofthetime Yeah I’m taking 4 Utrogestan suppositories a day! My progesterone levels on the 2nd were 304nmol which is great but on the 4th it was 190nmol, which is still good to be honest but it just doesn’t make sense why it’s dropped so much (especially when HCG has more then doubled) I don’t get it 😔 x

@PMAmostofthetime @Dobcaty @LKSF thank you so much! Day 1 nearly done! And we got our video of our little embaby today 🥰

@LKSF I had no idea clinics closed for august! I'm guessing there are emergency numbers to call? I hope someone comes back to you soon

@Hopefortansy85 hoping your test today showed some stronger lines for you 🤞🏾

@Coops0406 Aww your got a video, that’s so lush ❤️ We’ll let’s hope you can show embaby when he/she is older how they started on this journey 🤞🏼
Its only closed because it’s in Greece, so think most places abroad have a summer break!

@Hopefortansy85 Did you decide to test or you waiting for Sunday?

Update: My doctor came back to me and said not to worry about my Progesterone levels dropping, she said aslong as my hsg is rising properly(which it is) then it’s fine! Now the count down to my scan on the 16th 🤞🏼🙏🏻

@PMAmostofthetime whens your scan?

@LKSF hopefully! 🤞🏾
Ah right, I see now. Whereabouts in Greece?
Good news about the progesterone though, at least you can put your mind at ease, slightly!
Not too long until the 16th, 11 days and counting 😊

@Coops0406 Athens! Our first three failed in the U.K. so thought we would try a completely new clinic and protocol! I just want to go to sleep and wake up on the 16th 😂😂

@LKSF I've heard good things about Athens! After many failed cycles here and it working there so I've got a good feeling for you!
Haha! I totally understand the whole wanting to just wake up and it be the date you want it to be!

Hi everyone, had a bad headache so went home early and husband came home early, so we have snuggle up and are watching a box set.
Going to test on Sunday. I’m not optimistic about the outcome but we are going to do some nice things this weekend to relax and put a positive slant on it 🙂then plan the next FET see if we can plan a holiday or a few days away around the next one.
