2WW anyone want to join?

[FrostedFlake]

I’m currently on 4dp5dt and trying to keep myself busy and not thinking about symptom spotting but it’s hard.
in the past I’ve tested on day 5 but feeling nervous about it as I feel like I have absolutely no symptoms other than being tired and cranky but don’t think I can blame that on IVF 😅

@FrostedFlake ok thats good! Crossing my fingers for tomorrow. It really is a headfuck, I hate that at no point in this journey does it feel like you're allowed a win as there's something else to worry about. I keep thinking if you'd seen that line not doing ivf youd be feeling pretty positive! And yes doing ok thank you 💛just tired & cranky 😂

@Purpleflowers17 amen!

Thanks for the support ladies. I might just test tomorrow morning to get it over with xx

@Eagerlywaiting1990 ok lovely well good luck if you do 💛I'll be thinking of you and please share if you're comfortable to xx

@Ginny91 not going to lie, I have been a terrible moody cow this two days. Ready to cry all the time, irritable, etc. No other symptoms, but I am also going to repeat the test tomorrow morning, I feel like I want to do the test every morning now 😂

@Eagerlywaiting1990 hoping for you to see the two lines tomorrow morning x

@Eagerlywaiting1990 if you decide to take the plunge tomorrow will be thinking of you 🤞🏻 xx

Hey @Ginny91 yes day was officially yesterday and the line seems be there and strong. Still very anxious but am not testing anymore just going to have faith by the scan date the baby is still there and it’s in the right place.

am sorry to hear you been going through it. I know exactly it can be when family can trigger your emotional side especially around this time when your emotions are more heightened. Try and take it easy and not think about it too much.

@Eagerlywaiting1990 i thought I was out and stopped testing. My boob would be swore and heavy one day then it would be totally fine the next. One day I thought my period was coming and then the next day I was fine. I truly believe it the medication we take that cause some of these symptoms. so I wouldn’t count yourself out until test day

Good Morning ladies, I didn't end up testing. After a massive cry with my husband last night, he really didn't want me testing on my own and we're going back to the original plan of testing on Friday. Thanks so much for all your kind words and it's really good to know that it's not just my symptoms that are coming and going....hopefully I'm not out. Sending love to all of you 🥰 xx

@Rettafun wooo glad to hear it and thanks for reassuring about symptoms!

@Eagerlywaiting1990 sounds like a big cry was very needed! I’m glad he’s convinced you and we are all still with you too; look after yourself today 💛💛💛

hey and now we are 7dp7dt 😅they should do studies on how slow time can go

@Eagerlywaiting1990 glad you let how you were feeling out. Never good to do a test on your own so glad you held off.

Is anyone else sleeping really well? It’s very odd I have never slept so well (apart from my two toilet trips a night). Think the two pessaries I do at night time knock me out 😂

Thanks ladies. I'm sleeping like a log too @Purpleflowers17 but that's pretty standard for me 😅. My heartrate is what's concerning me this morning, 109 at rest! Probably the anxiety of this whole thing! Xx

@Eagerlywaiting1990 The vivid dreams mind you are wild 😂 i have the opposite anxiety my RHR has remained the same the past week. I read somewhere that you can expect it to go up which then makes me starting overthinking. These 7 days have been torture!

@Purpleflowers17 I'm sleeping ok too, quite deeply considering I keep napping every day as well 😂and yes big dreams going on! So do when do you do your pessaries? I'm doing 7am, 4pm, 11pm at the moment, the 4 is always the worst for sure.

@Eagerlywaiting1990 not surprised your heart rate is high mate!! So much anxiety and yeah I expect our bodies our working their socks off right now 💛

@Ginny91 have to do one in the morning and then two before I go to sleep. Then my Lubion injection at 9pm. So I think high as a kite when I go to bed on progesterone which is why my vivid dreams are wilder I think 😂

😂 my dreams are nuts too, standing my ground against fields of hyenas and everything xx

I am also getting crazy dreams 4th night in a row, it starts getting really tired. The moment from my dream that I remember today is a giant grey horse standing close to my house and it was crying, the amount of tears was like gallons...🙄

Other than that, no symptoms really. I retested again yesterday, the line is there, but my test day is this Saturday. Oh, the other night I forgot to use that progesterone pessary, but from what I have read nothing dreadful if you miss an odd one. I am starting to get really tired of those and now alternate where I put them 🙄

@Elena3 it's so bizarre isn't it?! And doesn't make for a very restful sleep.

I'm sure missing one shouldn't do you any harm. Great that you're still getting a second line. I'm still too scared to test but will have to get over myself and do it on Friday xx

@Elena3 yay for lines! And that's really good to know about the pessary, I've got an app called Max to help me remember to take everything and its actually been suuuper helpful to track and not too naggy if you are a bit late or anything. But also feeling pretty fed up of them! Pretty sure if this was men they wouldve invented something nicer by now.

@Eagerlywaiting1990 bizzare it is...! I do normally get horrible nightmares when the Moon is full, but now it is like I am living some other life in my dreams, like movies :D x
Thanks @Ginny91 , yeah, for men it would probably be some craft beer potion with added progesterone :D

@Purpleflowers17 @Eagerlywaiting1990 I really struggled last night and felt very low. Have caved and ordered some extra tests and think i'm going to test today because I'm going completely nuts xx

yet another night of 'vivid dreams' for me, this time I was trying to escape from a serial killer. It is very tiresome 🤐

@Elena3 how are your lines looking? I’m dreading the weekend as I know if I test and it’s negative I’ll be upset & even if it’s positive I will question how strong the line is 😂

Im really struggling today, stressed and anxious! @Ginny91 so your not alone.

@Purpleflowers17 last time I tested was Tuesday, and the line is definitely visible, but I am waiting for Saturday now :) We also plan to tell the parents on Saturday, but reading all the horrors about chemical pregnancies etc I am a bit worried that it might be too early. I ve told some of my friends already, (I am an over sharer lol), but it is easier to tell friends because they are not as emotionally involved as parents and in case something doesn't work the level of disappointment won't be the same if that makes sense...

I felt very stressed and moody for a couple of days few days ago, so understand you very well. I am ok now, but those dreams just dont let me sleep properly!!

Thanks @Purpleflowers17 and sorry to hear you're struggling too.. I feel emotionally spent x

@Ginny91 @Purpleflowers17 sending love and luck to you both! I have been off sick with migraine since Monday,think it’s caused by stress and meds tbh I feel completely drained! Think it’s completely normal to just burnout at some point over this whole journey.

@Cosyseason1234 , so sorry to hear about that migraine - it is not fun to have it on top of all of this...I hope it will go away soon. Do you use some specific meds against migraine? if so, can you still take it during conceiving/pregnancy? x
