IVF April 2023

[BiscuitLover3678]

anyone else due to start in April?

Just did another on a slightly different early test. Nothing at first and then a very faint other line. So it could still be the trigger fading out or something new!

@Frisbeee im going to try really hard to not test tomorrow and then Thursday is 15 days post trigger so will either be blank or early pregnancy I guess!

@CR7 pleased to hear you’re doing well! I can completely imagine it’s hard to relax just yet, IVF is so physically and mentally exhausting! Great that you have your scan booked in, hopefully you can relax more after that x

@Frisbeee 🤞🏼 xx

@BiscuitLover3678 oh it’s so hard to know if it’s trigger or a positive!! Definitely best to wait a couple more days to be sure otherwise you’ll torture yourself wondering. If it is a positive then hopefully the line will be darker by then anyway so you should have a clear answer. Everything is crossed for you!!! xx

I’ve had some brown spotting after my positive yesterday. I’m 8dp today. Hope it doesn’t turn into a bleed! Have you been okay since the spotting? Xx

@StaceyWS88 have you tested again to see if the line is developing? Hope the spotting has stopped for you now & you’re feeling ok?

I’m also 8dp transfer so it’s strange that we’re experiencing it at similar time! I had 2 x day 3 embryo’s though. Were you a single day 5?

Ive carried on having spotting this afternoon although it’s still brown so not worrying too much. I feel very different to how I felt at this point during my last IVF cycle so hoping that’s a good thing!! Last time I could definitely feel my period trying to come on but the progesterone stopped it. Trying not to symptom stop too much though!! xx

Meant to say symptom spot!!

I literally had a tiny bit when I wiped and then I’ve had nothing since! Really hoping this one sticks! Tested again and it’s a bit darker, was 4am yesterday when I tested then tested this evening after a 3 hour hold. I really wanted significantly darker but it was more like yeaahhh I suppose it is darker 😂 how’s yours looking?

I had a single 5 day. I feel totally different this time too although I have been a bit crampy and worrying that it’s my period trying to come on! Xx

That sounds like perfectly implantation bleeding! When was your transfer?

@StaceyWS88 good that it’s darker, even if it’s a bit of a squinter to be darker!! Mine was the same, just a little bit when I wiped. Sounds like we’re perfectly in sync 😂

I’m trying not to test but it’s literally all I can think about!!!

Hope your cramps ease up soon. Mine seem to have calmed down as I was really crampy after egg collection & transfer. I suspect that was more of an endometriosis flare up due to the hormones though :(

It was last Monday but feels like last May xx

You’re so strong! I wish I was more like you haha! Yeah I felt awful after egg collection this time.

Honestly if you can resist don’t do it! When’s your OTD and is it a test or a blood test? I have a blood test Saturday xx

Ooh ok you’re two days ahead of me! I also had single 5 day transfer

@StaceyWS88 haha it’s my husband that’s being strong, I literally want to test all the time!!

Good that you have bloods booked in & not too long to wait! Do you clinic repeat in a couple of days if you get a positive? OTD is Monday for me & I have bloods too. I suspect it should have been Saturday but they don’t do bloods at the weekend. I’ll definitely home test on Saturday morning. We’re going out Saturday night & if it’s negative I’ll definitely need a drink haha!!

@BiscuitLover3678 @StaceyWS88 unless I’m missing someone, I think it might just be us 3 still waiting to test!!

I’ve been really bad at keeping up with it all. 3 out of 3 positives would be nice!!!

How amazing would that be!!!

I’m not sure if they repeat 🤔 I’ve never got that far 😂 ah as if yours isn’t open on a Saturday! Ours is open but only til lunch time, thankfully! Excited for Saturday for you!!

Really trying to to obsess yet totally am. This is okay right?!

Hi all, new here. How's it going for you? Going through my first IVF had 2d embryos on 27/04.
Taking estrofem, duphaston and endometrin for support.
Not feeling so well in general, weak, cramping, saw a very light pink spot once on wiping, headache and lower back pains from time to time. emotionally also not so stable currently, and becoming too strict with my husband lately. couldn't even work in some of the days (office work).
My Beta is due tomorrow, so took a stick test yesterday morning that came out negative unfortunately.
This is so frustrating, feeling so bad and for vein. How do you cope with it? :(

Hey, aw I’m sorry, it’s an emotional rollercoaster isn’t it. What kind of test did you use?

Oh my goodness @StaceyWS88 that’s brilliant line development!!!

@Ziv welcome to the group and sorry to hear you’re having a rough time. It’s definitely an emotional rollercoaster! Good luck for your bloods tomorrow, don’t lose hope yet

I just want a solid dark line 😂 god I wish it was Saturday xx
