Wondering if anyone has got a positive recently and would be due late April / Early May 2026? ✨

Hey everyone!

Would love to join although there's already lots of you on here so might be a little difficult to catch up!

We've been TTC for 3+ years with a MMC along the way. Yesterday was my official test day for our first round of IVF and it was positive!!

The waiting and the anxiety through the IVF process was awful and while I'm over the moon happy to have this positive...I've now got to wait for my first scan on the 25th - and I'm already struggling!!

I've got sore boobs and some cramping (but these will be a side effect of the IVF medication) apart from that, I don't feel pregnant... maybe I'm still in shock 😂

EmilyMay89 · 10/09/2025 12:01

@magpie234and @BabyBornglad both of your scans went well!!

Wiennetta · 10/09/2025 12:03

Congrats @CloudyIvy55 that’s very exciting! How are you feeling? It’s an anxious wait until the first scan for sure - I’m planning on a private scan on 25th too when I’ll be 7w6d. How far along will you be? I had cramping on and off from when I got the positive test and it’s still going on now at 5w5d - I googled and apparently v common (ivf or not!).

magpie234 · 10/09/2025 12:08

@BabyBorn I was measuring 6 + 4 apparently so prob just hard to gauge such tiny differences. Def going to be having more scans. Going on holiday to Greece next week so will be a bit anxious and get one on our return prob at nearly 9 weeks.

VioIetMoon · 10/09/2025 12:13

@BoodifulGoose same here, I should be around 5w6days and still don't have line progression. I think they took quite light compared to my successful pregnancy. I tested positive 10 days ago and theres no change to the clearblue digital either. Not moving up, not moving down

CloudyIvy55 · 10/09/2025 12:14

Hi @Wiennetta congratulations to you also! Glad to of found a scan buddy. I'm struggling a little with the IVF maths 🤦‍♀️ but I think I'll be around 6 weeks on the 25th. I know that's early for a scan so I'm not sure what they are hoping to see.

Is this your first? I'm feeling pretty good thanks, how about you?

magpie234 · 10/09/2025 12:17

@CloudyIvy55 Lovely to see you here fellow infertility board graduate! My symptoms matched with yours at that point.

CloudyIvy55 · 10/09/2025 12:23

Hi @magpie234good to see you here also! I've just read that your scan went well today...so pleased for you!

tillybud89 · 10/09/2025 12:44

Hi ladies. Hope your all ok. Loving reading the updates on here 💗 how's everyone dealing with their hormones? Im now 5+2 got my early scan next wednesday. My skin is awful! A new spot most days!!! Yesterday I was hungry then really nauseas (this was on/off most of the day. Then last night was practically falling asleep before I put my girls to bed but really really grumpy as well lol. Today is better just skin is really getting on my nerves feel like a teenager again lol and the tiredness is really bad and I start my 3 night shifts tonight!!! 🙃

BabyBorn · 10/09/2025 14:02

Thanks so much @EmilyMay89 My scan went well. Saw a heartbeat and measuring just as I thought! So relieved! Have you got an early scan booked? x

EmilyMay89 · 10/09/2025 14:22

@BabyBorni think we will book in for one. I think we went about 7.5 weeks last time and saw a heartbeat so will probably wait until closer to then! still in the 4’s at the minute!

Mom2manykids · 10/09/2025 14:26

Hi everyone tentatively joining as I got a faint positive yesterday at 11dpo. I’m quite shocked as I’m 43 and thought I was going through the menopause 🙈 I’m waiting on some first response to be delivered from Amazon today so I can test again. My cycles have been all over the place but from my last period I think I’m due around the 24th may

Anyone due May 2026

I feel your pain - last week it was a new spot day after day! I’m 6+4 today and thankfully none since the weekend, so they’re all just healing now. I was on the pill for years and years pre-TTC so this really is a throwback to being a teenager. I was wondering if it was just my body freaking out at all the new hormones - hopefully things will continue to settle down from now…!

brightandbeautiful89 · 10/09/2025 18:05

@magpie234@BabyBornso glad both your scans went well! I saw baby and heartbeat but they all suspect I might have an ectopic pregnancy in my right ovary so I need to go back and be rescanned next week. Such a worry

Mom2manykids · 10/09/2025 18:48

12 dpo today and this is my test. I’m 43 so a bit of a shock

Haha doesn't it just. Im so run down and full of cold .... cant even have a lemsip lol!!! Keep telling myself it's all worth it 💗

magpie234 · 11/09/2025 04:06

Does anyone else feel like their stomach is eating itself if they don’t eat like… every 30 mins to an hour?! Driving me mad, starts twisting and cramping as if I’m starving even when I’ve recently eaten 😭. I wouldn’t call it nausea but it’s constant and really getting me down! Just sat here eating a banana I don’t want at 4am because the gnawing pain woke me up again…
