Anyone Doing FET/IVF Cycles in November 2025?

[Mrsbutterfly24]

Hello ladies, anyone doing an FET or IVF next month? I am on a 3 month down regulation protocol and just did my last lupron depot injection yay! I start embryo transfer prep on the 1st of November, it will be nice to chat with anyone on a similar timeline for support and banter to get us through 😊 Xx

@Mrsbutterfly24 whoop so glad it went well hope the wait until test goes quickly for you

Thanks, my transfer went well too! Hope everyone elses goes to plan and the tww passes quickly! 🤞🏻 x

I'm on the dreaded pessaries and progesterone in oil injections 😭 they hurt so bad but its something we need to do. Does anyone have a recommendation on haw to take the steroids tablets that taste awful they leave such a bad taste in your mouth for hours after

Hey - joining late here but I had a transfer on Saturday 15 November. Anyone else on the same or similar timeline? I’m 3dp5dt and not feeling any cramping or any different to be fair. Just highly emotional from the copious amounts of oestrogen and progesterone! This is my third transfer, but first using donor eggs.

Glad it all went well for everyone! Sorry the injections are painful @camelinastorm i start mine on Friday 🙈 I’ve never had steroids so no advice sorry! @Lozzy000i have mine next Wednesday so not too far off! Just to say when it worked for me I never had a single symptom so I don’t think there’s anything to worry about!

Thanks @NS05. It’s so difficult isn’t it. I’ve had 2 transfers. The first was a chemical but had loads of cramping. 2nd was bfn with no cramping. I think I’m going to test around 8/9dpt as it should be pretty accurate then….! Really hoping it’s finally our turn! x

@Lozzy000so sorry to hear that! Hoping third time is lucky for you but yes I do think it’s too early to have anything, to be honest when I was pregnant I only had tiredness so I really don’t think it’s an indicator! It’s all so nerve wracking, last time I tested at 5dp5dt but I may just wait until the blood test this time! X

@Lozzy000 I had no difference from my positives to my negative transfers, all I had was tiredness at 6 weeks but unfortunately suffered miscarriages, the ones that we negative I had the same symptoms until test date as the positives, this i think will be my 7th transfer I have 6 left in storage then that's it. Just try relax and the time will fly by

Thank you @NS05- yes I tested 5dp5dt last time but going to try to hold out. @camelinastormi’m so sorry to hear about your miscarriages - that’s so tough - I really hope your next transfer is the lucky one. I’ve got 3 frozen embryos left after this transfer - the most I have ever had after 7 cycles (5 own egg, 2 donor egg) - so we’re super pleased we have a total of 4 goes but really hope one works x

@Lozzy000 I have also had 5 full cycles all created high grade blasts but we haven't got past 6 weeks yet

Its so difficult when its not working! Ive done 3 full rounds and this is my 6 transfer! Have you done much extra testing? X

Hi little embryo!

@Cesas no no more extra testing as I make grade 5/6 AA embryos the issue seems to lie after implantation like after 6 weeks they have done all the womb testing but nothing has flagged up it's awful roll on Saturday as after this we have one more shot as transfering 3 on Saturday

I’ve just started my cycle have a second scan on Monday, so I’m guessing my transfer will be more around begining of December but anyone else at a similar stage?
goodluck to those in the wait! 🤞

I’m so sorry 😔

@Cesasi had an aquascan before starting the donor cycle. My constant didn’t recommend anything else as she doesn’t think anything should be wrong, we could just never get the embryos with my own eggs to give us a good chance.

We transferred our first donor egg embryo and I have tested this morning at 6dp5dt and it’s a faint positive 🥹 my first transfer with ow egg embryos ended in a chemical so I’m not celebrating just yet, but it’s a very good sign that our little embryo is trying hard xxx

@Lozzy000 that's such a good sign a faint positive, fingers crossed the little embryo sticks the stress never ends even after getting a positive

how exciting @Lozzy000praying it sticks for you! Are you having hcg blood tests that always kept me calm to see it was doubling? I started progesterone this morning- realised I didn’t have the needles so had a mild panic attack. Ran to my friend who luckily had some left over from her cycle 😂 transfer is in 5 days so just trying to stay calm!

Thank you 🤞🏻🤞🏻 x

Thank you! I think I’ll have blood tests from my OTD if it’s still positive. Not sure whether it’s just one or multiple…. That will be a new step for me 🤣

Glad you managed to find some needles - what a panic! X

@Lozzy000yes good idea, I think I’ll just do my blood test and let them tell me, I did that with my son as I get too scared to do the test myself 😂 I usually have 3 blood tests and then wait for the scan. Try and relax this weekend if you can! So exciting though!

That’s good to know about the amount of blood tests. Yes I’m going to try to put it to the back of my mind this weekend and then test again Monday to see if there’s any progression

Scan booked tomorrow to check lining to see if a natural cycle suits me better for FET. Feel so deflated and just want to give up. Still struggling with the miscarriage and all that we’ve had to give up to fund this journey 😞

Good morning ladies! A quick update from me to give you some hope! My transfer was 30th October and today marks 6 weeks pregnant! I hope baby sticks more and more

Just had scan. Natural FET. Cycle day 9. Trilaminar appearance of womb, measuring 6.7mm. Leading follicle 13mm. Have to LH test twice daily and go back in few days to see if lining continues to grow.

@Marisadea , lovely to hear all going well so far. Stick baby stick 💕.

@PlanBFertility , 6.7mm at day 9 is really good odds for being over 7mm to start progesterone so hopefully all going in the right direction 🙏

I hate myself for having no self control and testing today at 4dp5dt... I think I can see a line eyes squinter but who knows. I'll test again tomorrow morning, hopefully it's a less ambiguous line then 🤞.
