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

@Lizzieeeeeeeeeeeeei know the waiting is awful.

im 6 plus 4 today, you? I was feeling happy and then saw the report that the heartbeat was 105bpm and stupidly googled and it said at 6 plus 3 it should be over 120 😭 I’ve spoken to my clinic and they said over 100 is ok at this stage but it’s worried me so I’ve booked another scan for Saturday. I honestly hate google 🙈

@NS05 ohh no 😩 I’m so sorry! I’m sure it’s fine as they’ve reassured you, but such a worry! Especially when you Google things it’s torture isn’t it! I’m 6 weeks! Scan in the morning so nervous!

Peonies94 · 23/12/2025 14:02

@NS05 eid they tell you the heart beat or was it written on something? I’ll have to remember to ask them tomorrow!

NS05 · 23/12/2025 14:09

@Peonies94no I didn’t even think to ask and then i saw it on the report and stupidly googled it. They said anything over 100 at the 6w mark is ok but I read optimal is over 120 at 6w3d. Anyway I’ll go back Saturday as I’d rather pay £65 at a local scan place than be worrying! Let us know how you get on tomorrow. X

NS05 · 24/12/2025 19:42

How was it @Peonies94hope everything was ok? X

Peonies94 · 25/12/2025 12:10

@NS05 it was okay scan was all good but since I think I’ve had a miscarriage! Everywhere is closed so can’t be seen until Monday!

NS05 · 25/12/2025 12:18

@Peonies94oh no why do you think that, if the scan was all good and measuring fine it’s super unlikely you would have one so soon. As it would take time for hcg to decline etc- is it because you have had bleeding? This is really common in ivf pregnancies - I really hope you’re ok and here if you need ❤️

NS05 · 25/12/2025 12:19

@Peonies94also are you anywhere near northLondon as my doctor literally is always available for emergency scans even over Christmas so happy to give you her details x

Peonies94 · 25/12/2025 19:11

@NS05 im in wales! I’m surprised my clinic still hasn’t called back from yesterday afternoon from calling the emergency number!

Yes so I had my scan 10am, by 3pm had a big gush of blood and Havd been bleeding since!

NS05 · 25/12/2025 19:19

@Peonies94i bet it was the probe that irritated your cervix this happened to my friend, that’s why so many people bleed after sex during ivf pregnancies. It can be super sensitive with all the hormones we are inserting into our bodies. It must be so scary but I really think if the scan was fine there’s no way you can miscarry that quickly. Try and drink loads, rest as much as you can and hopefully it will subside 🙏

Peonies94 · 25/12/2025 19:24

@NS05 i really hope this is the case and crossing everything! Won’t be having sec there for sure!! I’ve read lots of people say about this with scans but also lots of miscarriage stuff out there, so just hoping for now 🤞🤞

NS05 · 29/12/2025 08:20

How are you doing @Peonies94do you have a scan today x

Peonies94 · 31/12/2025 17:23

@NS05 clinic called me my scan is booked for next Tuesday! 🤞

NS05 · 05/01/2026 16:25

Sorry just saw this @Peonies94hope everything goes well tomorrow! Keep us posted! My nausea seems to have vanished since yesterday and now getting worried somethings wrong! @Lizzieeeeeeeeeeeeehow are you getting on, did you have your scan yet? X

Peonies94 · 05/01/2026 19:06

@NS05 thsnk you! I’ll keep you posted! The symptoms are awful, wish anything to not feel terrible then feel a slight bit better and panic hoping to feel terrrivle again 🫠🥴

NS05 · 05/01/2026 19:10

Yes @Peonies94have yours ever gone for 2 days? I’m panicking as I had a MMC a few years ago and my symptoms fading was the only sign. I’m trying to stay calm but really worried 😫

Peonies94 · 06/01/2026 13:37

@NS05 my symptoms were very much still there but unfortunately no heartbeat ! Was measuring exactly where I should have been at 8+2 so I guess it really isn’t a positive or negative sign! It seems that the miscarriage must have just happened!

NS05 · 06/01/2026 13:40

@Peonies94oh no I’m so unbelievably sorry to hear this, this process it’s so cruel and unfair. Take the time you need to heal and be kind to yourself. I’m so sorry again ❤️

@NS05 Apologies for late reply!! Scan tomorrow and super super nervous 🙏 just hoping all is well, will be 8w5d tomorrow all going well. Hope you are keeping well, if I’m busy with work my symptoms don’t seem to be so bad but if I’m idle or driving the nausea and retching can be awful. Other than that I’m just super tired like all the time. How have you been keeping?

Aw let us know how you get on! I’m also 8 plus 5 tomorrow. I had a scan yesterday luckily all was well. I’m going to wait now until my nhs scan. I’ve felt a bit sick again today but definitely not as bad as it was so I’m hoping I’m over the worst of it. I can’t wait for February, just wishing away the next few weeks 😂

I will do! Aw that’s great news you must be over the moon that baby growing away nicely 🥹 I would imagine the scans can be rather addictive but tbh I have been really anxious about having mine. Just hoping all is ok 🙏

Lizzieeeeeeeeeeeee · 08/01/2026 11:18

First ultrasound today and all well 🫶✨ just waiting to hear back from midwife regarding our next scan 🙏
