@Irisjj No way - it's my fantastic husband that does every single one. Except for a tiny scratch for a tiny second.. I don't feel a thing with Lubion .. so nothing to worry about:)

I got my day 3 grading today: 3 excellent, 2 good, 7 average, 1 below average. So we keep our fingers crossed for Saturday. Thankfully my pain has reduced to almost nothing so I'm hoping the OHSS threat has gone!

Great news @Sd183

Jupiteer · 06/04/2023 13:00

Wow that's amazing! You have really super ovaries 🙂

Sd183 · 06/04/2023 16:25

I have read though that any drop off after day 3 is male factor. And although we’re ‘unexplained’ the only thing we did find was DH has slightly lower than average morphology, so I’m concerned about getting my hopes up just incase that has an impact! X

Stopthatnoisemummy · 08/04/2023 12:57

Good luck today @Sd183

Sd183 · 08/04/2023 13:20

Thanks @Stopthatnoisemummy - we got 3 blasts, 1 not good enough quality, 1 average and hatching and one excellent but not quite a developed. So they’ve put the average hatching one in and the excellent one is being given until tomorrow and then being frozen. OTD is 19th. Praying for a sticky bean!

Stopthatnoisemummy · 08/04/2023 18:40

Fingers crossed for you @Sd183

AlisonDanuta · 09/04/2023 10:21

How is everyone doing?

I can't believe we seen first time positive pregnancy test! 11dp5dt it's BFP..
There is a light at the end of the tunnel.. I know i need to wait for the next few weeks to make sure it's all good but after 7 years ttc and 3 ivfs - it's such a victory.

To all of you please do not give up...

@AlisonDanuta congratulations! That's so exciting!
And congratulations @Sd183 on your transfer, best of luck for the 19th 🤞🤞🤞

BrownXeyes · 09/04/2023 18:09

@AlisonDanuta congratulations!

I don’t know if anyone can help me - I got my
positive on the 29th March. Yesterday everything I ate made me feel sick and the same today however today we are at another level and even thinking of different foods is making me feel sick. I know you can get morning sickness obviously but I always thought that didn’t start until 8 weeks?! Is how I am feeling normal? Pregnancy test says I am 3 weeks + x

Stopthatnoisemummy · 09/04/2023 19:35

@BrownXeyes sorry you're feeling sick, perfectly normal though, it can start any time! Also been feeling sick on and off. I find eating little and often better than three bigger meals. Hope it passes quickly for you.

BrownXeyes · 09/04/2023 19:37

@Stopthatnoisemummy it seems more like a food aversion but I will give that a go thank you. Hope you are well!! X

Sd183 · 09/04/2023 20:38

Thanks @Jupiteer! Has anyone get their OTD coming up?

Jupiteer · 09/04/2023 21:31

My OTD is in 5 days. I am really unsure what the result will be. Apart from feeling bloated ever since EC, I have zero symptoms. 🤷‍♀️

BrownXeyes · 10/04/2023 07:19

@Jupiteer try not to symptom spot. I had sore boobs but that wore off about 5 days before test date and I had nothing I was convinced it hadnt worked. Stay positive you might be surprised xx

Stopthatnoisemummy · 10/04/2023 08:31

@BrownXeyes hope you find some food you can stomach. Lots of pain and cramping here, anxiously counting down the days until my scan next Tues.

@Jupiteer it's so hard to distinguish what is causing symptoms so I wouldn't drive yourself mad over looking for them, or the absence - everyone is different. With my prev successful round I had no symptoms at all and now cuddling a happy and healthy 2yo DD

BrownXeyes · 10/04/2023 08:40

@Stopthatnoisemummy mine is next Wednesday I am the same and hoping to god everything is ok. I have my fingers crossed for you. Yes I have made a very beige meal plan for this week- however crumpets seems to be going down ok so I will stock up on them just in case 😆x

GIJOJO · 10/04/2023 09:06

Hi all... hope you are having a nice BH weekend...
I'm a complete bag of emotions today... had spotting on day 7 (which I was ok with), but more spotting today, day 9; and I'm starting to freak out but desperately trying to stay positive... I don't think this is a good sign... got 3 more days before testing... am really struggling now... 😢

BrownXeyes · 10/04/2023 14:28

@GIJOJO try to stay positive and if your really concerned call your fertility clinic. The wait is awful. Stay strong xx

BrownXeyes · 10/04/2023 17:30

Anyone who has had a positive test - test say I am 3 weeks plus but this afternoon when I wipe I’ve had some brown discharge - has anyone else experienced this? I am worried x
