As I was replying I realised the thread has reached the limit.
I thought I'd create a new thread for us all to keep in touch.

@Melisss mine must of been a whizz then because she didn’t use nothing 😂😂😂 catheta in and the embryo followed was mad ! But they know what they’re doing I’m sure they could put one in whilst asleep 😴

@MoonlightDreamer they definetely did something right though 😋I would have raised an eyebrow if they would have been fumbling around 😅

@Millie89xx yeah, i`m sure they know what they are doing even without an image. Now time to relax 😁

I’m sorry to hear your news @NewBee21

congrats on your transfer @Millie89xx!

Mine went really well and I have a gorgeous little 4bb on board. I saw it go in and everything and got a little video of its development from fertilisation to day 5.

On the way home the clinic rang to say they have popped a 3bb in the freezer as well :)

@Melisss ive literally just sat with feet up and got water bottle all afternoon ❤️ have you had any symptoms yet ???

@Hopingforno2in2023 awww that’s nice my clinic doesn’t do anything like that and I’m shocked because I expected it with paying private oh well I won’t let it ruin my little bubble 🫧 let’s all hope the 2ww flys by my OTD is 24 th is that yours ?

Mine is the 25th @Millie89xx :)

Definitely enjoy your PUPO bubble. Did you get any for the freezer?

@Hopingforno2in2023 yeah 4 went in for freeze 💙🩷🤞 the other 4 didn’t make it but I’m not being sad I’ve been lucky

4 in the freezer is amazing @Millie89xx! I am over the moon with my one fresh and one frozen. My AMH was so low there was very real fear that I wouldn’t get one to transfer let alone one to freeze so I am so so happy. They are keeping an eye on my last two overnight but I am v relaxed about them now.

@Hopingforno2in2023 I just feel in a daze like has this really happened ! How do you feel ? Keep getting mad cramps and twinges me

I have had quite a few cramps @Millie89xx but told that is completely normal. Feel a little overwhelmed but focusing on well-being over the next two weeks :)

@Millie89xx no symptoms so far but it is quite early for me because of the day 2 transfer. Maybe towards the end of the week 🤷🏻‍♀️ Had a few twinges but nothing crazy. I try not to think about it to much 😛

@Melisss have you just been cracking on as normal ? It’s hard what to do and not to do isn’t it in just up getting ready to go back to work

@MoonIightDreamer That's great you got a good strong line yesterday. I decided not to test this morning but will do again tomorrow. My clinic just do the one blood test too. I'm still getting cramps as well. Sometimes they are mild but other times they are quite strong and linger for a while.

Here's hoping the phone calls go well for us today 🙏🏻

Morning everyone,

After a few more weird feelings/symptoms I tested this morning 8dp
absolutely over the moon we got a good strong positive! was so scared I was shaking 🙈

Really happy, but also very apprehensive that something goes wrong. Going to try and keep positive and hope that it sticks ☺️

Morning ladies !!!! So who’s testing early then or has done ? I’m saying I’m sticking to my date now but let’s see how next week pans out ??? How early did people see positives

@User491 oh my god this is amazing congrats wahhhhhhhhh

@CDiamond @4thcyclelucky @NewBee21

I’m sorry, I know how horrible this is.

@User491 I’m so happy for you!! Congrats 🎉

@LuckyPineapple I think I saw you got a BFP too! If so congrats!

@Lauralozzle thank you.

How are you doing? I've been thinking about you a lot this last week. Hope you are taking time to look after yourself ❤️

@User491 have you had any spotting ?

@Millie89xx thank you ❤️ seems surreal tbh!

I had a tiny bit of brown spotting on 6dp, but I've had a high temp, feeling like I've done a million sit ups, really bloated (especially yesterday) sore boobs that have increased in size, vivid dreams and had heartburn most the day yesterday.

Some may be unrelated, and some will mainly be the progesterone.. it's so hard to know 🙈

@User491 oh fab !!!! I’ve been so hot since last night like absolutely roasting hopping that’s a good sign

Congratulations @User491 what fabulous news!

Anybody else been having cramps/twinges? Mine have pretty much being constant but think it's my uterus getting over the trauma of the transfer! 😱Also been having mild heartburn/acid reflux and slight nausea yesterday and today, insomnia too! I'm trying not to get too carried away as it could just be the ovitrelle injection.........so hard to know what is what!

@User491 congratulations 🎉 great news to be reading this morning.

Everyone seems to be having all these symptoms... meanwhile i feel absolutely nothing 😳

Congratulations @User491!

I have zero symptoms other than exhaustion but that will be the pessaries. Obviously only 1dp also 😂

@User491 Congratulations! 🎉 I'm so happy for you.

Thank you @Lauralozzle I've been thinking of you also. I hope you are keeping ok and doing nice things for yourself.

@User491 & @LuckyPineapple Thanks both. I’m back at work this week. Took last week off as sick. I’m doing ok. Not much to report as review isn’t until 27th.

I’m happy with my decision to step back from it all until after Christmas and my birthday (January). It’s sad that I’ll be another year older - I was 34 when I had my first consultation at the IVF clinic and in a couple of months I’ll be 36. I need the break though from it all. In the meantime I’m doing lots of decorating getting the house ready for carpet being delivered next week so lots to keep me occupied.
