FET - February 2023

[RMS0209]

Hi!
Looking to find some friends who are going to be going through a FET in February.

😊

@Megan1591 I will start my progesterone on Wednesday. It will be 3 x cyclogest pessaries a day and one prontogest injection every other day. My injections are painful (I did them last time when found out levels were low) my husband has to do them for me. It seems so odd to me that they would transfer before knowing my hormone levels - I was very angry about it. If it doesn’t work out this time, we will change clinic.

Hi everyone, it’s my official test day today and got my BFP! Obv very early days so I am very anxious it’s all going to go wrong but also very excited.
@Megan1591 my progesterone was tested on the morning of transfer. Clinic said they were looking for levels of 50 upwards. Mine were 57. They did say at my scan if the levels were too low on the day it wouldn’t stop the transfer going ahead and that they would just up my meds.
@Piapea my only symptoms were cramping and feeling quite exhausted. When I spoke to the clinic they said that it could be due to the transfer itself, the high levels of progesterone I am on or a positive sign things were going well so it is really hard to tell. Please try not to worry too much and overthink things. I know it’s easier said than done! I got myself in a right state last week (down to my own fault for testing waaay too early!)

Congratulations @Pax89 that's such great news! 👏🎉🎉

Massive congratulations @Pax89 that’s brilliant news!!!!

Wahoo! Congratulations @Pax89 🎊

I also get no symptoms on progesterone @Piapea and I'm on pessaries 3 times a day and lubion injections. My doctor doesn't do blood tests though so not sure what my levels are.

Welcome @Aishae , @Stillhoping1990 and @Megan1591 !

@Megan1591 If you do need lubion I recommend shopping around. I get mine from Asda and its £8 per injection instead of £20 at my clinic!

@Piapea My transfer was a day before yours and i've had a few cramps but nothing else. No harm in you asking for a test to see if you need a progesterone top up.

@Pax89 Congratulations 🎉 So happy that's it's good news after all!

I am on utrogestan 400mg three times a day. My boobs only started feeling tender after my FET.

Hi, can I join too? Also in TWW.

Am on the same schedule as @Piapea transfer was last Thursday and test date 27th. Other than a bit of cramping I've had no symptoms, currently trying not to stress and overthink it but it's not really working!

@Pax89 congratulations that's great news!!!
@ingkir that's ally cheaper I'll have to bare that in mind.
I've had 3 IUI's which resulted in 3 miscarriages 8-12 weeks. It will be the first time I've had my progesterone tested. It would be really frustrating also if I always had low progesterone.

@Pax89 congrats hun... Yippee

Thanks everyone 😊

@Pax89 that's such awesome news!!! Congratulations!

@Pax89 such a great news, congratulations🌸

How's everyone going with the tww? I am thinking I will wait for the official blood test but dreading the thought of potentially going for another round. Any coping tips?

@Megan1591 my progesteron level on transfer day was 39. Also in Cyclogest 400 twice daily. I am doing FET in Spain and my doctor here said it is a good number

@WhiteJasmin I decided not to test till otd. Watching comedies and positive movies helps me)

Embryo in! My OTD is 4th. How long has everyone else got to wait to test. Is 11 days generally the norm?

Already panicking slightly as I forgot to take my estrogen this morning and only just remembered, so I have taken two tablets but worried that was the wrong decision now. 🤦‍♀️

@WhiteJasmin I am having the same dread this is our last embryo. When is your OTD?

Progesterone Blood test came back as 48 today, fet confirmed for tomorrow at 1330. Is 48 a decent number? I'm over analysing I think eek

@FlapJackered mine is end of the week. I'm trying to stay a bit neutral this time. I found my first round I thought that would be it and was more devastated.

@FlapJackered I know how you feel.. I was 2 hours late taking my progesterone pessary on transfer day.. fingers crossed a couple of hours won't make much difference!

Hi everyone, I got my BFP today 😀 Very happy but also nervous because I had a miscarriage at 5 weeks with my last FET.

@FlapJackered my clinic says to test after 9 days. I did crack and test at 7dp5dt and got a very very faint line that I was worried was an evap so was stressing until today when I tested and got a definite positive.

Congratulations @ingkir 🌺👍 Amazing news, wish you all the best, everything will be ok this time🙏🏻

Congratulations @ingkir that's amazing news! Keeping fingers crossed all goes well for you this time! 🤞
I am so tempted to test early but I think I will just test one day early as I drove myself crazy last time! 🙈

@Piapea that's good to know I am not the only one! I feel like I totally lose my brain on these drugs it's ridiculous!

Congrats @ingkir positive thoughts hun
