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.

@LuckyPineapple I also have quite alot of cramping. I think maybe that's why I'm concerned alot more. I've read its perfectly normal to have some mild cramping but my cramping is really bad.
I'd been knackered all week and all of a sudden I'm feeling so much more energetic. I read into every little thing too much and think its a bad sign. My bbt has been dropping dramatically so now I'm completely paranoid about my progesterone. How long will you continue your progesterone? I stopped mine on Friday and have just felt uneasy about it .
Oh beetroot , your brave. I tried it but just couldn't.
I ate sprouts , apparently there's a chemical in them that also helps implantation. Strangely now tho my tastes have altered and they really make me gag. Mind you I also ate alot of pizza in my tww so maybe it helped too 😆

@MoonlightDreamer some of my cramping has been pretty intense. Particularly going to bed or getting up in the morning. I'm going to mention it to my clinic tomorrow because it has been worrying me a bit too. I've to take progesterone up until 11 weeks I think.

Yeah the Beetroot juice wasn't the greatest but I mixed it with apple juice which made it more tolerable 😂 Never knew about the spouts!

I think I have an aversion to Mexican food. A girl in work put a burrito bowl in the microwave on Thursday and I had to leave the kitchen. Even the thought of it now turns me 🙈

Try not to worry, I know easier said than done. I read that it's normal for symptoms to come and go. Is your blood test tomorrow?

Millie89xx · 12/11/2023 19:03

@Hopingforno2in2023 good luck for your transfer tomorrow hope they are double sticky for us both 🩷💙🤞

Hopingforno2in2023 · 12/11/2023 19:43

Thanks @Millie89xx, good luck to you too!

I am celebrating my birthday today (it is actually tomorrow but with everything going on tomorrow decided to celebrate today) so have had a lovely non IVF day. Getting nervous now though.

Millie89xx · 12/11/2023 19:50

@Hopingforno2in2023 ohhhhhh how amazing it’s fell on your birthday 🩷 that’s a sign most definitely!!! Don’t be nervous hopefully this is the exciting and best bit 🤞

MoonIightDreamer · 12/11/2023 20:24

Well this is annoying. I cleared my cookies and got logged out and I couldn't remember my password for my mn account 🙈 neither do I have my old email address so couldn't reset it. Anyway, I've had to go and bloody set up a new account 🤬

KJ00 · 12/11/2023 20:34

@MoonlightDreamer 😂 that's happened me so many times

Hopingforno2in2023 · 13/11/2023 06:52

Awake and wishing time away until the clinic calls to say if we have anything to transfer or not! Thinking of you @Millie89xx

LuckyPineapple · 13/11/2023 07:31

@Millie89xx @Hopingforno2in2023 Good luck for transfer today! 🤞🏻

Happy birthday 🎂🥳 @Hopingforno2in2023 That sounds like a good sign it's fallen on the same day!

LuckyPineapple · 13/11/2023 07:32

@MoonIightDreamer @MoonlightDreamer
Sorry not sure which one to tag 🤣
Good luck with your blood test today! I'm just on my way out the door for mine! 🤞🏻

Melisss · 13/11/2023 08:40

@Millie89xx & @Hopingforno2in2023 good luck today with the transfers 🤞 sending sticky dust your way 🙏

Millie89xx · 13/11/2023 08:58

@Hopingforno2in2023 happy birthday 🎈 🩷 my clinic hasn’t said they would call just to come along at my appointment slot 👀😳 so praying we have one 🤞🩷💙 how u feeling xx

Hopingforno2in2023 · 13/11/2023 08:59

I have a blastocyst to transfer! The other three are still growing so will be kept until day 6. One she said is very close so I am hoping I will have at least one to freeze also.

Millie89xx · 13/11/2023 08:59

@Melisss ahh thank you how are you feeling you back to work today? I’m back in tomorrow gutted my week offs flew x

Millie89xx · 13/11/2023 08:59

@LuckyPineapple thank you so much 🩷

Hopingforno2in2023 · 13/11/2023 09:00

I think they call us @Millie89xx because we live so far away from the clinic so don’t want a wasted journey. I’m sure yours are doing great :)

Rosesinbloom19 · 13/11/2023 09:54

Good luck @Millie89xx & @Hopingforno2in2023 for your transfers! Hope the wee embabies are nice and sticky for you both! 🤞🏻🙏 🩷 🩵 xxx

User491 · 13/11/2023 10:05

Good luck @Millie89xx and @Hopingforno2in2023 🙂

Happy birthday @Hopingforno2in2023 how nice that it's fell on today, what a lovely coincidence🥰 I love things like this, as it's like it's meant to be 😊

@MoonIightDreamer @LuckyPineapple hope your HCGs bring some positive news ☺️

7dp today, had a little tiny bit of brown ish spotting yesterday, I'm hoping that's a good sign 🙂 driving me nutty about testing, i was desperate to today, but think my husband is wanting to wait to OTD on Wednesday.. not long to go 😬🤞🏻

Millie89xx · 13/11/2023 10:43

Has anyone done the whole maccies chips ritual after transfer. ?
I’m going to do it but I mean it does say no processed food and I will HAVE to have a cheeseburger 🤞

Hopingforno2in2023 · 13/11/2023 10:46

im swapping mine for birthday cake @Millie89xx 😂

User491 · 13/11/2023 10:55

@Millie89xx you got told no processed food? I didn't on either of mine... I had fries both times and 2 cheeseburgers 🐷😂

Millie89xx · 13/11/2023 11:01

@Hopingforno2in2023 have both it IS your day after all 🤞 x

Millie89xx · 13/11/2023 11:02

@User491 yeah it says on the don’t .. avoid processed food but if you have then I will 😂😂😂🤞 love a good maccies

Melisss · 13/11/2023 11:12

I had fish and chips before my transfer 😅I am not being very strict with what I eat. I am trying to eat home cooked meals, more fruit and cut out unhealthy snacks since the transfer but also trying not to drive myself crazy with it.

User491 · 13/11/2023 11:13

I didn't get told that 😂

I'm eating lots of veg and proper home cooked meals, but I am also eating my fair share of biscuits 😬 the progesterone does it to me every time! 😂
