Welcome to anyone who wants to join me for their May FET! My transfer date is actually 30/04 but the TWW and test day will be in May so thought I’d see if I could find some buddies! The April thread is very full so thought it would be good to start fresh!

Look forward to chatting to you all through the madness and hearing your insights😀

A rather shocking turn of events here. Waited until OTD and got a strong positive test. In total disbelief. Miracles can happen. Fingers crossed for next steps. Sending all my love to everyone x

I've been quietly reading this thread and noticed you were on the same timeline as me (my OTD was also today). I was experiencing many of the same emotions as you (too scared to test, convinced it hadn't worked again, etc). I finally got the courage to test yesterday and also got a strong double line - for the first time ever! Confirmed by the blood test this morning. Fingers crossed for both of us and good luck to anyone still awaiting results 🍀

GoldenRetriever1 · 04/06/2024 15:46

@esined87 Oh my gosh - Snap! I’ve got everything crossed for both of us. After years of sadness and disappointment, a weight has lifted for the first time.. I know it’s still uncharted waters, but for now - we must celebrate this small step. ✅ The fear of testing this morning was unbearable. So, so, so much sobbing! Lots of love to you x

Exactly the same for me - I felt paralysed and was so scared of everything crashing down when I took the test. I absolutely agree about celebrating the small steps! It's amazing to know that it is possible. All the best to you too 😊

Yayyyyyyyy that's the best news!!!!

DauntedAF · 05/06/2024 09:50

Was totally planning on not testing today - but then got the faintest whiff of nausea this morning. I'm not sure if i do feel a little nauseous or if its in my head - I kinda feel clammy if that makes sense?
I know first morning urine is supposed to be the best but anyone doing tests later in the day?

kirstysmbc · 05/06/2024 10:16

@DauntedAF If you can't use FMU, try not to drink too much and l do a 4 hour hold. I often found evening could be stronger. Good luck!

Took your advice!

Had a positive that didn't work out in my last FET so not taking anything for granted

@DauntedAF Most definitely second lines in all of them, congratulations!!

Infert1lel1fe · 05/06/2024 13:29

Just to give an update on my bleeding situation, I had a huge bleed the other day (24DP5DT) with clots etc and was convinced it was the start of another miscarriage. Went to the clinic for them to confirm and it turns out there’s something hanging on! Got to be scanned again though as still at high risk.

Now I’m obsessing that I don’t feel as sick as I did….

What a rollercoaster! Definitely not out of the woods yet.

Cautious Congrats on all the positives!!! Xx

GoldenRetriever1 · 05/06/2024 13:38

@DauntedAF Congratulations! Definitely a positive with my eyes. Very exciting 🙏🏼

@Infert1lel1fe This is reassuring news! So pleased to hear that your little one is holding on. I’m 4 weeks 5 days and not particularly full of symptoms. I refuse to take any more tests and going to wait for my 6 week scan.. but I’m feeling a little nervous. We all know how quickly good things can be snatched from us. Fingers crossed for all xx

DauntedAF · 07/06/2024 19:36

How's everyone doing. Currently 8dp5dt and got a line on my test but still nervous. Will be crawling to my bloods test on Tuesday

GoldenRetriever1 · 08/06/2024 05:36

@DauntedAF Great to hear you’ve still got a line on your test at 8dp5dt.. fingers crossed for your bloods! I’m 5 weeks now (17dp5dt), and I haven’t taken another test.. only one at 13dp5dt. I can’t face the possibility of it getting more faint.. so I’m just waiting it out until my 6 week scan. No bleeding, not much pain or anything. Just quite sore boobs and a bit off my food. I’m taking these as good signs and hoping for the best. Still on 800mg of Cyclogest everyday, so I am a bit concerned that the progesterone would keep away a chemical/mc and is what’s causing my symptoms.. who knows what’s going on in there.

Anyway, lots of love to you. It’s such an anxious time x

Sherr33 · 08/06/2024 06:26

Congratulations to all that have had a positive 😊

Can I ask in terms of progesterone how were you using them. I have to insert 3x pessaries a day I usually do it rectally but I'm seeing people say to switch both vaginal and rectal so those with positives how wete you using them

Fruitypineeapple · 09/06/2024 11:55

Hey everyone, sorry I’ve taken so long to update - I couldn’t log in so I had to create a new account. I got BFP! Hope everyone is doing okay x

GoldenRetriever1 · 09/06/2024 16:53

@Fruitypineeapple Congratulations, welcome to the next waiting phase! I’ve still got pretty much no symptoms.. so I’m feeling very suspicious seeing as I’m 5 weeks + 2. I wish my mind would let me drop the anxiety for a mere moment. Too scared to take another test.

Natty2 · 09/06/2024 17:34

@Fruitypineeapple @GoldenRetriever1 @DauntedAF congrats on your recent BFPs! I stepped off here for abit as my transfer ended up being pushed to June so now in tww. Hope you are all feeling well and fingers crossed for your first scan!

DauntedAF · 10/06/2024 08:46

Anyone getting bloods soon? Mine are tomirrow
