@seekingbabyk thats a great blast! Definitely something to celebrate! I’ve just asked my hubby to bring the tree and decorations down from the attic. Enjoy your day and good luck for tomorrows update!

@Decaffe easy@home ones are great! That’s the first one to show me my bfp 4 days after transfer. The following day I used a FRER and it was a clear line. What sensitivity were the other ones you used this morning? I’m keeping everything crossed for you X

@Decaffe we're usually 2nd as hub's birthday is 1st so he says it has to be after that but with us going away it's going to be a rush and I feel like I'm allowed some slack at the moment lol so I'm using it to my advantage!

That's so weird with the tests but you have to think it must have picked something up. I can understand it being faulty the other way and giving a false negative but I think this could detect something. Keeping everything crossed for you that the little embaby sticks x

Yes sounds like a plan to me. Tell him we all said so 😁

seekingbabyk · 27/11/2022 10:04

@Tinkerbell098 awww thank you! I can't tell you ladies how you have all changed my mood this morning. I was almost in tears after that call but now laughing and feeling fuzzy thinking about them being stubborn girls lol. Still guarded but feeling much better!

Men just can't fix things like girls can can they!

Decaffe · 27/11/2022 10:05

Morning Tinks!

These are all 10iu. Honestly I am leaning towards it being an error with the test. Even the paper bit comes up higher on the top one rather than the middle one. I think it’s dodgy manufacturing 😂

I’m not calling myself out just yet but I would really really like to experience some of this fabled pulling and cramping today or tomorrow please. 😅 I just want to know that I can implant.

@Tinkerbell098 you guys are making me reeeally want to put up the decs today!

Tinkerbell098 · 27/11/2022 10:14

@Imisscoffee2021 do it!!

OP posts:
seekingbabyk · 27/11/2022 10:17

@Decaffe it's not even a squinted though that's very positive! Can't wait to see what tomorrow's one shows!

Tinkerbell098 · 27/11/2022 10:21

@seekingbabyk glad you're feeling better already. I wanted to type a longer message to reassure you about the grading but my phone was playing up (on the laptop now instead). But saw that @Decaffe has done a wonderful job in explaining. It really is a great blast. Are they freezing it today?

@Decaffe that's a very clear positive, I'd sue the company if it was false! But strange how the middle one didn't pick it up. Were they all dipped for the same amount of time? Excited to see what would happen with a FRER/ another easy@home tomorrow morning.

OP posts:
seekingbabyk · 27/11/2022 10:37

@Tinkerbell098 yes freezing today so at least that's one in the freezer and fingers crossed for one or two more x

Imisscoffee2021 · 27/11/2022 11:23

@Decaffe that first does look promising! I've had one evap on those before but wasn't nearly as strong as that! X

Decaffe · 27/11/2022 11:31

It’s so strange! Yet the other easy at home was completely negative! Honestly I think it’s just a dodgy one. It doesn’t make sense otherwise.

I still have a bit of brown tinged CM which I presume is from the transfer. I can’t tell you how much I would love some twinges or a spot of red blood to signify implantation. I just want to know that my body works. I understand the embryo may be chromosomally abnormal. I just want to know I can get past the first hurdle. 🙏🏻

seekingbabyk · 27/11/2022 12:21

Let's see what tomorrow brings @Decaffe - try to relax today and put it out if your mind. It's still so early too even if they were all negative it wouldn't mean anything x

MinBins · 27/11/2022 15:49

I can definitely see a line there @Decaffe! It's probably so hard to stay chill but hope you're able to relax over the next days and keeping fingers crossed for you!

Decaffe · 27/11/2022 21:19

Does anyone else get frequent urination, lots of gas and loose stools? I’m wondering if these are effects from the progesterone and the reason I didn’t have them with my fresh transfer was because at the time I was just using the Cyclogest which we now know I don’t absorb? But now I’m on the lovely Lubion twice a day?!

Tinkerbell098 · 27/11/2022 21:39

@Decaffe i had sooo much gas and bloating on two cyclogest a day. So I’d say it is probably the progesterone working. At one point I needed an extra pillow to rest my bloated tummy at night (so embarrassing) when I slept it was that bad!

OP posts:
seekingbabyk · 27/11/2022 23:09

@Tinkerbell098 yes I was very bloated on progesterone too! We actually took a photo because it really looked like I was 6 months pregnant lol!

Decaffe · 28/11/2022 08:24

Sending positive Day 6 vibes to you this morning @seekingbabyk!

Thanks for the reassurance on the digestive situation, it’s truly awful over here 😅

seekingbabyk · 28/11/2022 08:45

Thanks @Decaffe - not heard yet but it's usually between 8-10. Feel like I'm waiting for a jury's decision! Really need to jump in shower but worried I'll miss the call!

Decaffe · 28/11/2022 08:50

Ah my lovely I need to jump in the shower too, to get to the clinic for my progesterone test but I’m lying on my bed with a cuppa refreshing this page! Sending so much solidarity. I’m thinking of you 😘

Decaffe · 28/11/2022 08:51

Could you take the phone into the bathroom?!

Tinkerbell098 · 28/11/2022 08:55

@seekingbabyk good luck for the update call this morning X

@Decaffe good luck for the progesterone test today. Would you get the results today itself? Have you done anymore HPT this morning or are you going to wait a couple of days?

OP posts:
Decaffe · 28/11/2022 09:04

Yes results will be this afternoon, if I can get there in time this morning! My boobs are consistently sore when touched now so I’ll be interested to see what the Lubion has done.

Yes BFN on an easy @ home this morning. Yesterday’s really must have been a dodgy test!

Tinkerbell098 · 28/11/2022 09:28

@Decaffe that’s a really good sign that the progesterone is working. Oh how strange about yesterday’s test! It’s still v v early. Are you off work now for a couple of days?

OP posts:
seekingbabyk · 28/11/2022 09:36

@Decaffe - good luck today! The boobs hurting is definitely a good sign!

Just heard back and we got one more the same grade so 2 in the freezer now. Over the moon with that to be honest as last time none made it to day 6 so was preparing myself for just the one.

She said there's nothing we can do to improve that either for the next round it just is what it is!

Let us know how you get on @Decaffe - it's a good news day today x

Tinkerbell098 · 28/11/2022 09:50

@seekingbabyk oh that's excellent! probably a boy and a girl in the freezer for you :) you can relax now and prepare for your trip.
