Hi all ☺️

I have had an IVF round in November and had a freeze all cycle. I have had a meeting with the consultant this morning and will be doing a FET in late December/early Jan.

Please join this thread if you are on a similar timescale πŸ’«

Hey! I stupidly tested this morning 5dp5dt using a first response and it’s definitely clearly negative and now I feel so disheartened and also have a gut feeling it hasn’t worked πŸ˜” I know it’s early to test but a lot people say they test positive on 5dp5dt with a first response

Hey, a lady I know tested negative on 7dp5dt and got a squinter at 8dp and she is almost 35 weeks now πŸ₯° you're not out yet xx

MS2692 · 26/01/2025 12:18

Thank you everyone you’ve made me feel a little more hopeful

Hey @MS2692

Sorry to hear you are disheartened,hopefully in 48 hours it will be a very different story! From what I’ve read I am going to try and hold out until 7dp5dt.

I thought this link was a good read, look after yourself today ❀️

@Cosyseason1234 this is super helpful, thanks for sharing!

Cosyseason1234 · 26/01/2025 13:11

@Orangewillow no problem at all, it’s helping me keep well away from the tests πŸ‘πŸ» although I may have googled β€˜could a pregnancy test ever be positive 2 days post FET’ earlier 🀣

Good evening ladies, my fet is tomorrow 1:45 pm, I am thinking whether I should still use progesterone pessary in the morning? Would be better to doubleheck with the clinic, but don't know whether I ll get the response quick enough...

Purpleflowers17 · 26/01/2025 20:41

@Elena3 my clinic have requested me
to do my pessary at 7am Tuesday morning for a 10am transfer so i would assume you are fine to use in the morning.

Eagerlywaiting1990 · 26/01/2025 20:49

@Elena3 @Purpleflowers17 am I right in thinking you do your pessary rectally on the morning of transfer?

Elena3 · 26/01/2025 20:52

Thanks @Purpleflowers17 @Eagerlywaiting1990 , i ve been doing it via front end, but it is actually a good idea to do it rectally tomorrow morning, just in case! I dont know why I didn't think about it, duh.

My clinic said no change to meds on transfer day. I did take the back route if you know what I mean!

Edited

Same! Even went totally mad and did a test after not really holding my bladder. The wait is torture!

I’m having lots of cramping, sore boobs, leg hurts every now and then but I get all of these in my normal cycle anyway.

The joys of TTC/IVF… it can mean something, it can mean nothing!

Elena3 · 26/01/2025 20:57

@TheseCalmSeas thank you, yep, that's the plan for tomorrow πŸ˜…

Eagerlywaiting1990 · 26/01/2025 20:58

All the best @Elena3 . Hope it all goes well, will see you on the tww on Tuesday xx

Elena3 · 26/01/2025 21:04

@Eagerlywaiting1990 Thank you <3 yess, will join you there hehe

Cosyseason1234 · 26/01/2025 21:36

Good luck @Elena3 ! I did mine in the back so it was out the way πŸ˜‚ the clinic said fine to do either as long as it was 2 hours before transfer time if it was vaginally.

@TheseCalmSeas the wait is torture! I’ve got those symptoms plus everything smells vile,I’ve had this since before transfer though so must be the progesterone. When will you test?

I was going to ask them about the pessary & when to take it morning of so this ^ is v helpful !

Eagerlywaiting1990 · 27/01/2025 06:43

Hi @Ginny91 , good luck for tomorrow. I'm in for transfer then too as is @Purpleflowers17 if i remember correctly! X

Welcome @Ginny91 good luck to all having transfers today and tomorrow.

@Cosyseason1234 how are you feeling? We are officially 3dp5dt. I'm doing relatively ok I've had a few aches however I'm not seeing that as anything as my last round I have cramps, pulling etc and that was negative which was soul destroying as I'd convinced myself it had worked. I'm also not going to buy any tests until at Friday so I'm not tempted xx

Kirstie16 · 27/01/2025 08:49

Hi everyone, thank you for your kind words last week when I was freaking out about symptoms, you were all right as I got a BFP yesterday πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯° over the moon but I know the anxiety will still be there now until I hear the heartbeat!

Ginny91 · 27/01/2025 09:17

Thanks for the welcome gang πŸ’› they just called and we're on for 11:30am tomorrow.. woke up in a bit of a sad / grouch so its a relief to have a time slot finally & to know there's people here transferring at the same time! These hormones are no joke

Cosyseason1234 · 27/01/2025 09:52

@cleggrickman I’ve had some very mild cramps but still the same progesterone symptoms as before transfer,every smell making me feel sick including my OH 🀣 I had abit of a panic yesterday thinking about what we will do financially etc if this FET fails but I’ve had a word with myself today and thinking well I’m pregnant until proven otherwise! Grateful for work this week to take my mind off it abit. How are you doing?

@Kirstie16 yayy congratulations πŸ₯° what day post transfer did you test?

OP posts:
Mseddy · 27/01/2025 09:56

@Kirstie16 congratulations! The anxiety never really goes away does it! Get through one hoop and there is another to jump through! Try and relax though.

So many BFPs on this thread!

@Ginny91 welcome. Glad you have your transfer booked in!

I've got progesterone bloods tomorrow morning and then all being well transfer is booked for Thursday lunchtime. Starting to feel nervous about the thaw already!

Purpleflowers17 · 27/01/2025 10:59

@Ginny91 transfer day buddies tomorkew along with me and @Eagerlywaiting1990 group of us today and tomorrow.

@Kirstie16 congratulations fab news πŸŽ‰

Purpleflowers17 · 27/01/2025 11:04

@Mseddy good to hear they are doing your progesterone test. I have mine before transfer tomorrow with results Wednesday. I think I’m driving them insane asking for Lubion daily!

I am oddly hoping that it shows I need it just for my own peace of mind. πŸ˜‚

Kirstie16 · 27/01/2025 11:07

@Cosyseason1234 i actually waited until day 13! I was so busy at work and couldn’t deal with going in work if it wasn’t a positive!

@Purpleflowers17 @Mseddy thank you 🩷🩡
good luck to everyone having their transfers soon ✨✨✨✨
