Fingers crossed for you @Tinkerbell098💕🤞🏼

Tinkerbell098 · 15/10/2025 18:06

Thanks girls. They have transferred two as we didn’t get good quality blasts this time 😟 fingers crossed at least one sticks 🤞

MinBins · 15/10/2025 21:40

Fingers and toes crossed @Tinkerbell098it’s an exciting but nerve wracking time during the two week wait. Sending all the positive vibes your way.

I’m having a FET on a regular cycle so I’m currently testing for a smiley ov test, then will be heading in for a scan once I get an positive, and a transfer the week after if all is well on the scan.

I think that will be in just under two weeks 🤞🏼

Tinkerbell098 · 17/10/2025 22:49

@MinBins thanks! Oh how exciting! How many Frosties have you got?

Imisscoffee2021 · 18/10/2025 08:21

@minbins best of luck with your fet! Hope you get that smiley face and all goes to plan :)

Our transfer is set for Wednesday @Tinkerbell098we have four in total after the previous one, however two of those are grade 2 (not 100% sure what that means). Thanks @Imisscoffee2021☺️

Keeping fingers crossed it’s all okay for us x

Tinkerbell098 · 21/10/2025 17:39

@MinBins good luck for transfer tomorrow!

Spin101 · 21/10/2025 22:47

@MinBins thinking of you xx

MinBins · 22/10/2025 08:34

Thanks @Spin101and @Tinkerbell098feeling a weird sense of pressure but hoping for the best.

Hi girls! I decided to test yesterday morning (6dp5dt), but realised all the tests I had were expired 🤦‍♀️ I had them in my drawer from my last pregnancy three years ago. The easy@home tests expired in Aug 2024 so about 14 months out of date. I decided to use them anyway. Out of three, one had a very very very faint line (came up within a minute), so am worried it’s a chemical. I had a leftover FRER, which expired in February 2024, so about 20 months out of date. I held my wee for about 6 hours and tested with that and could see a very very very faint line again. I know I’m being silly and should just get some new tests but I’m too scared. I didn’t save my FMU today so not going to test today as it ruined my whole day yesterday. OTD is Friday so I’ll have to test then anyway. I’m really worried as I’ve had chemicals before and it’s awful!

MinBins · 22/10/2025 14:18

Ah exciting @Tinkerbell098! Keeping fingers crossed for you. Faint line is good! Hoping it gets deeper over the next days 🥳

Im in the waiting room have my transfer soon. I really really need to pee. 😅🫣

Tinkerbell098 · 22/10/2025 16:02

@MinBins hope it went smoothly. Good luck for the next few days. Hope you get to rest (I know it’s not always easy with a toddler!).

Tinkerbell098 · 23/10/2025 10:22

I have tested with three easy@homes and one digital this morning. All were negative. I’m devastated. It’s the end of the journey for us as we always said we’d try one ivf round to get our little girl a sibling. OTD is tomorrow.

Honeybunie · 23/10/2025 14:53

@Tinkerbell098 oh I’m sooooo sorry to read this 😔 sorry I haven’t been replying in a while. Don’t have much time these days to message. But have been following and just wanted to say how sorry I am. I hope you can get to terms with this outcome. It must be so hard to have got your hopes up for a sibling 😔 sending lots of love ❤️ and a big hug 🫂 xx

Honeybunie · 23/10/2025 14:55

@MinBins I hope your transfer went well yesterday and I cross everything I have for you ❤️ xx

I'm so sorry Tinkerbell :( You've been incredibly brave trying again, when having success before and then risking it all again for another child, honestly it's so brave. Your little one will know one day you tried absolutely everything to give them a sibling xx

Ah @Tinkerbell098its such a hard journey to go through and the disappointment is often overwhelming. Sending you lots of hugs and hope.

Tinkerbell098 · 24/10/2025 12:24

@Honeybunie @Imisscoffee2021 @MinBins thanks so much girls, i really appreciate your words. Part of me felt guilty for even wanting a second, given we are already blessed with one, but we wanted a sibling for her as we know she’d love one. It’s heartbreaking. I still find it hard that it comes so easily for most other people, so why not us? It’s too cruel.

MinBins · 24/10/2025 12:31

Ah @Tinkerbell098thinking of you today. There’s nothing to feel guilty about, and you’re right it’s heartbreaking. If you can, do plan something in to take your mind away from things over the next weeks. It’s what got me through our previous FET. Sending lots of hugs.

MinBins · 28/10/2025 15:17

I did a Clearblue early detection test today which is 6dp 5dt and it was negative. Think we’re out on this one - feel pants but have to trudge on. Think we’ll have a think of our next steps and see if we’re able to take another round in the future (financially and mentally.) I’ll do another test on Monday which is the clinic given date to test. I really don’t like this feeling but gonna try to stay positive.

Tinkerbell098 · 31/10/2025 11:21

@MinBins I’m really sorry 😔 it’s really horrible and so unfair. All we can do is stay positive. I’ve been cherishing my little one even more after last week’s failure. That’s all we can do at the moment. Hope you can do something nice in the weekend. We are here if you need to talk Xx

Imisscoffee2021 · 31/10/2025 12:29

@minbins So sorry you've got an early negative, hoping for you for Monday and will be thinking of you. Such a difficult journey, sending hugs x
