February FET 2026

[YourLilacLibra]

Thought I’d set up a chat for anyone due to have a FET in February 2026 😊

We’re doing ICSI due to severe MFI. We are doing our third transfer next month after a failed fresh and chemical from a FET. This is also our last embryo before having to start allllll over again 🫠 my period arrived later this afternoon so tomorrow is my CD1 then full steam ahead. This time I’m doing a modified natural (adding in a trigger), adding in clexane and the same as last time having Lubion and Cyclogest.

Is anyone else on a similar timeline? We could trauma bond over the turmoil we’re about to put ourselves through 😂

new season of bridgerton? Teheran and shrinking on Apple TV ? Has anyone tried pluribus?

Sorry you're not feeling positive @21RsMama
I've been feeling tearful since my transfer and so terrified it hasn't worked. Convinced myself it's failed today and gone down an internet black hole.

@MocktailMe I'm so sorry, that sounds really awful. 💐

Hi everyone, hope it's ok to join you! FET was on Monday 02/02. This was my fourth FET; first was successful and none since sadly, despite all being high quality euploids. This protocol I've been on steroids, aspirin, intralpid infusions, calcichew etc etc etc. My consultant is really throwing the kitchen sink at this one, as he feels it is my immune system. Fingers crossed but feel like it has been one blow after another, so I'm nervous to get my hopes up!
Best of luck to everyone over next few weeks. Xx

Hi everyone, I’ve had an FET this week (2/2 same as you @ali2021!)

it’s my fourth, having had a suspected ectopic, a failure, and a chemical so far. I paused for 2 years and this is my next attempt. Feeling super twingey in one spot so far although it’s easing off this morning. I haaaaaaate the TWW. But having company definitely helps! So much luck to you all.

I've watched bridgerton and shrinking already! I ended up back on Gray's Anatomy last night and obviously it was a new baby episode 🤪🤪🤪

4dpt feels like 4 weeks past.... 😅

You’ve made it 4 days! Well done. I always find it a bit easier when it’s 6+ days because it feels more like a choice not to test for just one more day… I can persuade myself that anyway, whereas the first few days I feel so powerless. You’re doing great!

Oh that is a good way to think of it!!

Also I do try and pee as soon as I wake up so I know the first urine is gone! 😅

Hi @ali2021 and @badjeans wishing you both lots of luck with your recent transfers!

@21RsMama @Klmno sorry to hear you’re struggling in the tww, it’s the absolute worst! Constantly questioning everything and the battle between hope and despair - I really feel for you both. I’m so torn between dreading it and also wanting time to hurry up so I can get there!

@RavenWillow is it your transfer tomorrow? How are you feeling today?

I’ve woken up with a sore throat today, so I’m having a slight panic about that…

Loved Shrinking & Pluribus - hard work initially but really enjoyed it.

I’m one day behind you.

I am completely exhausted today - like lying in bed reading exhausted. I’ve taken the day off work. I’m telling myself it’s the accumulation of a hectic weekend and catching up with actually processing I’ve had an FET.

I’m not a symptom spotter because it’s all so random. But I hope for more bounce tomorrow!

@Sunnydaysahead1 yes its more transfer tomorrow, they finally gave me a time today so early start for me as its a bit of a distance to travel and in rush hour 🤦🏻‍♀️ im feeling ok at the minute, it still doesn't really feel real to me right now. Went today for a progesterone test and will have results tomorrow, just hoping I don't need to up the pessaries or start injections. Hope you are feeling a little better?
@21RsMama I love greys anatomy! Have you watched the good doctor? It's one of my favourites at the minute, it passes lots of time!

Good luck tomorrow @RavenWillow!

Good luck tomoz @RavenWillow 🤞🏼❤️

@RavenWillow best of luck for tomorrow! I hope all goes smoothly, and you can get home quickly for a good rest after your early start. Let us know how it goes!
Still feeling pretty unwell unfortunately but I’m hoping I’ll feel better tomorrow, just drowning myself in ginger and lemon tea at the mo

Good luck 🥰🥰

Good luck @RavenWillow

@Sunnydaysahead1 hope you feel less ill soon!

@RavenWillow good luck, hope the early start isn't awful!

Tomorrow I'm going to order my tests for testing sat which will be 7dp5dt
I wanted to get a digital as find squinting for a line that isn't there really sad.
Would a digital be accurate at this stage?
Was thinking the clearblue ultra early digital?
Or would I be better with a line test?

Hey @Klmno it’s hard to know - the ultra early digital should be 10miu/ml sensitivity, same as an ultra early line ones. But obviously they only give a yes or no answer whereas you can see a very faint line - so I wouldn’t be confident that a digital would pick up the equivalent of a faint line. Depends if you’re ok with that. I got a positive digital at 7 or 8dot and it went chemical by 12dpo so I guess they are pretty sensitive.

Ahh thanks @badjeans that's a good point..I've ordered a digital ultra early and we'll use that and if negative (which I feel like I'm expecting tbh, I don't feel like it's worked) I'll use the first response line one I've ordered too, and do some squinting to confirm.
I'm not normally an early tester as my luteal phase is only 12 days (without progesterone) but my partner goes away Sunday evening for a couple of nights and I need time to cry on him before he goes so I'm testing early this time.

@Klmno I was thinking to myself earlier I wonder how many people had zero symptoms and thought their transfer hasn't worked but ended up with a positive test. That's the stories I need right now 😂 I don't know if mines has worked but I feel a really pathetic 'why would it work?' right now. So I'm trying to get out that slump.

I do have nausea and on off cramps/tingling/pulling etc but I think that could be the 3 pessaries tbh 🙄

You're 5dpt now @21RsMama is that right? Keep hanging in there! I definitely know of people with no symptoms at all (even through first trimester?!) who were successful. On the other hand, if you end up with terrible sickness in the next few weeks, maybe you'll be longing for this symptom free time...!

Got everything crossed for you. How many more days will you aim to hold out do you think?

I had lots of cramping about 36-48 hours after transfer but nothing now I'm on day 3. Just a lot more waiting ahead...

@badjeans yeah I'm 5dp5dt. Honestly I don't know.... Last time (nov25) I got positives from around day 6 and a good frer maybe day 8, but sadly by day 15pt it was a real squinter again and turned out to be a chemical. I know as soon as I test I'll be redoing it every morning either hoping for a positive or checking progression. I feel like if I hold off to nearer test day at least id have a decent positive or a stark neg/barely there line.

I want to test but I just don't think I have the energy left in me now to go through that exhaustion again.

What are you thinking?xx

Ahh yeah it’s a hard balance to get! I’ve bought 3 tests and that’s all I’m allowing myself - so if I use too early, I’ll have to wait until OTD for the last one! Thinking 7dpt, 9/10dpt and 12dpt. Maybe 6, 9 and 12 though if DW agrees!

Day 4 of the tiniest amount of stims to try and get my body exactly as it was that the fresh transfer worked. This is our last little embryo really hoping our dream of becoming parents works 🤞🏻

That's good to have it planned, like to know ok these are the days I'll test and nothing in between (or 5 tests a day 😅)
