@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

@Dobcaty so today is your birthday? HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! And amazing birthday news! Not long until you can start again!! 🥳🥳🥳
Well I really hope my august birthday brings us good news too!

@Coops0406 my OTD was 31st July which was 12dp5dt and clinic said I’d be around 4weeks. You can calculate on yourivfjourney.com

@Dobcaty Ah that’s great news you can start FET this month 🎉

@Dobcaty and happy birthday 🎂 xx

@Coops0406 That's amazing so pleased for you 😃

@coops I used an IVF due date calculator my OTD was the 1st August and I'm 6 weeks tomorrow! My due date is 5th April but according to the date of my last period it's 2nd April x

@Dobcaty That's amazing news!!!!
So pleased for you after all the stress too x

Thanks @PMAmostofthetime 😊

Thanks @LKSF just had a nosey on there. So really strange how many weeks you are but I forget you count normally from last period so I suppose it makes sense, you just wouldn't think it!

@PMAmostofthetime @Coops0406 @LKSF thank you for the wishes, I still don't believe I'm already 37 😬 where is the last decade gone? Haha

How are you girls? Planning anything nice for the heatwave?

@Dobcaty it has just flown by!
I'm in london next week for Coldplay and then a few days away to Whitby, Harrogate and York with the dog the following week (with a big 40th party inbetween!!)

My line got darker this morning and then again this afternoon (serial tester and super paranoid that I've made it up!). We actually told our mums today as they were both here and we couldn't hold it in or stop crying most of the morning!

@Dobcaty I've not got much planned, seeing a friend on Saturday and then probably go drive down to Weymouth/Bournemouth on Sunday with the hubby and step son! Have you got any nice plans?

@Coops0406 Aww so exciting 🥰 how are you feeling? What’s your next steps? Call your clinic on OTD and then book a 6week scan?

@Coops0406 A sober lot of celebrations for you. We haven't told anyone yet. I still don't believe it x

@LKSF I feel okay, get a few random twinges every now and then and peeing loads (but also upped my water intake so it makes sense). Excited, nervous, still in disbelief!
No idea of next steps, hopefully I get a confirmed BFP on OTD and then they'll let me know 🤞🏾

@PMAmostofthetime yes! Although I'm fairly used to the zero alcohol beers these days so should be okay.
We couldn't not tell them! All our family (and quite a few friends) know when everything has been happening since the very start, plus mother in law staying at our house this week, so was easier for our stress levels to let them know 🥰

@Coops0406 I can't wait to share out news- how did they react? No one knows we are going though it, it's my defence mechanism/ If no one knows it didn't happen.

My boobs are ridiculously sore today and huge! all my bras are cutting me- anyone know if Progesterone exaggerates this?

I'm 6 weeks today so my little one is the size of a sweet pea 🥰.

X

@PMAmostofthetime tears everywhere! Even my sister in law who doesn't hug or cry...made her cry twice! They've all been with us on this journey from over 3 years ago so I think they feel everything nearly as much as us!

Ah, a little sweetpea 🥰 can actually relate it to something! That's amazing!! I've always had sore boobs as soon as I start on progesterone, I can only imagine maybe your pregnancy is exaggerating it too?

@Coops0406 awwww that's lovely.

My boobs have been sore since I started progesterone and actually even before on stims. But they are on another level atm!

@PMAmostofthetime Aww I can relate to the ‘if no one knows it didn’t happen’ we didn’t tell anyone through our first three and it was actually a lot easier! This time we felt more pressure as if we were going to be letting other ppl down, and then when it came to testing I wanted to keep it a secret but my mum and sister were so worried we had to tell them! Exciting your boobs are more sore and bigger…I think they say your symptoms get more noticeable from 6weeks! I still don’t have many 😩 side of my boobs hurt a little when I press them and I’m really tired by 8.30….but then I’ve been sleeping rubbish so might just be because of that! I need Tuesday to hurry up….I’m so scared there’s not going to be a heartbeat or it’s not measuring what it should😩 x

@LKSF I think it's normal to be scared- I woke up scared too- so I tested.

Panicked when I first seen the first response then realised that it's the control line that's darker so the test line is stealing the dye. And 3+ is the highest it goes so that's made me feel a little better.

Tiredness is definitely a symptom I use flo due date calculator and it tells you the size of the baby and some symptoms you could have and it says that we are so tired as this is the fastest our babies will ever grow in the first 10 weeks.

Aww, those tests are really reassuring!! I’m way too scared to test again just incase the line isn’t as dark or something!! I’ve just got to get through the next few days feeling anxious and pray the scan is ok 🙏🏻 I think I’ll feel a lot more reassured after that and maybe will start to feel more excited than scared!

@LKSF when is your scan again- mines not for 3 weeks hence the testing to keep me sane ( ish) x

@PMAmostofthetime my scan is on Tuesday, I’ll be 6+4!!! Yes can understand why you’ve tested, atleast you have symptoms too…that’s a good sign things are happening 🥰 x

@LKSF good luck- let us know how it goes. I'm 6+2 today so will be 8+6 at my scan x

@PMAmostofthetime You’ll be able to see a lot more at 8+6 and then that’s not that long to wait until your 12week one 😃
Yes will let you all know how I get on 🥰 Hubby is desperate to find out if both of our embryos implanted or just the one!

Hope you all have lovely weekends in the Sun ☀️

@LKSF oooo I forgot you had 2! imagine they split! I follow the crozier Quadruplet's on Instagram and they were the result of an ivf 2 embroyo transfer x

@PMAmostofthetime Haha I feel like if it was more than two my HCG levels would of been through the roof when I had them tested at the start 🙈😂 and surely I’d be having loadssss of symptoms haha. I’m going to have a nosey at that account now though lol

So good to see those test lines...🥰
My DH terrified about twins...I don't know why because I love being a twin (I have a brother, and we are total oposite) 🙃

Not too much things happening in here, paid the medicines yesterday (was only £350) and it will be delivered beginning of next week (hopefully) and also I have a positive opk this evening...I hope I can catch DH tonight 😉, strictly just for fun!!

Hope you girls have some fun filled evening too :)
