Entering the world of Assisted Conception...like it or not...

That's wonderful lemon! It is such a huge relief getting help and having a plan in place. The HSG test is not that bad. You'll feel pressure but it's done in a minute. I hope everything comes back ok.

Agreed. I actually felt nothing. I kept waiting for the cramping, but it never came. Total breeze

My betas are 362 and my 1st ultrasound is Wed to make sure it's in the uterus.

That all sounds good! Good luck at the appointment! We'll be thinking of you!

Best news I've heard all day.

Smile - I'm excited for Wednesday!

And thanks, Hiker. I know there are no guarantees, but it's good to at least get things moving.

Lemon that's so exciting.. I know exactly how u feel.. it's overwhelming at first but then it's such a relief to finally have a plan and getting some answers. I just kept thinking at least the ball is rolling.. even if it was slow at times. I felt we were moving closer. Removing the fibroids is a good place to start. Last year an ultrasound showed up I had a polyp and did a quick day surgery thing. Our Dr said they can act like IUI's in there and stop you getting pregnant. So she wanted us to try two months.. even with my husband's really low sperm result. Good luck on all the tests.. I only had the polyp removed when I was under light general.. and boy those drugs were really nice!

My day 21 progesterone is 12.8. No idea what that means!! Anyone know? I test Thursday. Been feeling cramping but that happens every month.

Do you think you'll be able to wait until Thursday? I think I started testing 4 days before I was supposed to, and luckily got my bfp! (I'm not recommending testing early, it could've very well been a disappointment).

Yes I think I can wait. Having gotten the Ovidrel shot, I heard if you test too early, it can come up as a false positive. My doctor recommended I wait until the 14 day mark. Or wait to see if I get my period. For how long this is taking, I can't imagine this month will be any different, so no sense in my getting anxious and wasting a test. What will be, will be!

Hiker, I don't know anything about progesterone levels, but I'm rooting for you and keeping my fingers crossed!

 

[Smille24]

I'm not sure about progesterone either. It sounds like it's good. Did they express any concern? If there was concern they'd probably put you on suppositories or capsules. Fxd for you!

I'm sure I'll get a call tomorrow if they are concerned. The results came through over the weekend.

Yeah I'm trying to resist testing early for disappointment. Even though I had no trigger because it was a natural FET. I'd much rather have the hope that I'm pregnant at least for a week. I don't think it's worked I have zero symptoms.. but staying positive!

How long ago was it? I had no symptoms until the day b4 I tested. Sometimes women don't get symptoms. Fxd for you!

I'm 5 days post transfer.. So obviously too early to get symptoms. Just that someone in another forum was saying she felt twinges by day 3 - so everyone is different. What symptom did u have the day before u tested. And what day was that?

 

[Smille24]

It started to get nausea at 11dpiui and period like cramps. 5dpt is still early.

Ok that sounds totally rational!!!! Why aren't I thinking like that. Thanks! Ok will just try and think of something else for a few days.

It's really hard, I know. Did they give you an idea of when to test?

Feb 8th.
I just need to keep busy this week and not symptom spot! My neighbour said she didn't get symptoms till she was 16 weeks along. Everybody is different

Miranda: what quality embryo(s) did you transfer? Day 3? Day 5?

 

[miranda007]

Day 5. And we genetically tested ours. Which was great. But with hindsight, it will be super beyond disappointing if it doesn't implant because we know it was perfectly healthy!

I never had a successful fet, so I can't comment on that. However, we did have successful fresh, and I tested positive at 6dp5dt. I didn't have any symptoms when I tested then. I hope this will be it for you!
