@Myrtle82 that’s a good line, congratulations!! Hoping all goes well for you. Is this OTD?

Frisbeee · 13/05/2023 09:09

So I’ve tested this morning and got a strong line! OTD not until Monday but should have been today if the clinic was open!

Hi there,
I am day 13 p5dt, I tested for the first time just now and it's positive with a FR!
However this is my third positive out of 4 rounds of Icsi this year but they don't seem to last, the next 5 days will tell a lot. I'm so hoping!!
I used to test way earlier but promised myself I'd wait this time around and so happy to see two lines. I wasn't hopeful as have had no symptoms.
I am taking prednisone, aspirin to boost my odds this time as have some mild autoimmune issues.
I'm excited.

So good I have my fingers crossed!

Myrtle82 · 13/05/2023 13:56

@Vallef my official test date is tomorrow.. The14th.
Going to buy more test now as used the test the clinic gave me today. God I hope it stays around.
This sounds bad but I'm already working out when I can go on maternity leave from work 😅

Vallef · 13/05/2023 15:46

@Myrtle82 I know your mind can't help but speed forward to important things and it's good to be excited :) let us know when you test tomorrow. Just try and relax and hard as it is and try not to do alot of bending and things like that as its a sensitive time for the first trimester xx
