Trying for #1, anyone is welcome!

Advice please folks
So, our next IVF consultation is booked for 15th Feb. Obviously if things stay as they are, we won't be going hahaha! Besides, I need to have had this U/S scan they want before that appointment, on CD12 - so the closer we get to the 15th, the less possible that becomes - even if I had AF.
Won't get confirmation of the BFP til earliest 7th Feb, our GP appointment.
So do I call and cancel the IVF appointment now, or ask to bump it back a month again? I'm not sure what counts as late cancellation, perhaps a week, but there is a fee if you are late to cancel or reschedule. More importantly, the longer I take to book our train to the appt, the more it will cost (the clinic is in a different county, about two hours away).
Obviously if this isn't our sticky one, and I cancel the appointment, we then run the risk of going way back to the bottom of the list... And I don't want them saying 'well, you clearly CAN get pregnant so you no longer qualify...'
I know none of y'all are in same boat but just wanting some opinions. Cheers

I think, if you're really concerned, push back your appt a month. It has been so rough for you to get to this point so I'd hate to give it up. That said I really do thinknthis is your sticky bean (though I understand the nerves )

Lone - Those lines don't look like they're going anywhere! That paranoia never quite goes away. Every doc appt I always get so anxiois, sure they will tell me there is nothing there lol .It's prep for motherhood!

Aysegul - I went and found your other post but I'm not sure I see anything. Tbh that whole test look wonky and yoinsaod Amazon shipments etc are tricky so you probably are better off going to the doc. In my experience, I refused to test until AF was at least a day or more late because I dreaded those question lines (I am a definitive answer kind of person) - and, frankly, if there was a chemicle I didn't want to know about it. It helped keep me sane but for others it might make stress worse. IDK what works best for you but test again at a week late and see what happens! If AF hasn't showed, you just don't know how that cookie is gonna crumble.

İm also usually a definitive answer person and I usually don't even test haha yeah shipments usually don't arrive or they arrive months late so no use there, I'm just gonna go back to usual and wait it out haha the witch is due tomorrow so only a week to wait (saying this as if it doesn't feel like a year when actually waiting... Lol)

ahhahahahahaha Lone LOVE the nail design.

I don't want to completely bank on this because I could have contaminated the test butttttt I'm feeling good. DH is completely set that there are no other option other than boy. I'm a tiny bit more open minded but we are both team boy all the way! FX

Ooooh! What is this sorcery? FX for you!!

We've always said that we wouldn't want to find out. Maybe I'll change my mind now it's really happening, but I'm basically hoping that wondering what kind we've got will help me push it out when the time comes hahahaha!

 

[LoneWanderer]

Also your signature banner is driving me nuts as every time I see it I really want chicken

 

[Dream143r]

Lol it's a Sneak Peak test. Blood test for gender you can do as early as 9 weeks.

WOW! Never heard of that before. Well, congrats - and hope it's accurate for you!

Dream - love the 'size of a scoop of ice cream' banner - but clearly they haven't seen my scoop sizes or you'd have an entire tub in there already hahahaha

 

[Dream143r]

Seriously - I'm like hummmm.... scoop of ice cream, that's very subjective. lol

 

[Stella2018]

Lone - Love the nails! So cute.
I know some people don't want to find out the sex but I haven't got the self control for that haha. How are you doing keeping the news to yourself?
I like your rotating pics

Dream - CONGRATS! Wow our crew is 2 for 2 now, even boys and girls, how exciting! Any name ideas?

Aysegul - Any updates? Have you been to the doctor yet?

 

[LoneWanderer]

Okay, so I'm probably worrying unnecessarily - but I swear today's line is loads lighter than the last few have been.
Yes, I keep testing. That doctor's appointment feels like ages away. And yes, I know I'll drive myself mad this way.

Lone - sooooooo many factor effect line dark or lightness. This isn't a good measure of how pregnant you are. Let's say worse scenario, even if you were losing the baby your HCG is already so high to have those amazing super dark lines you had yesterday. There's no way it would drop fast enough in 24 hours for this kind of change in the lines.

Did you take the test at the exact same time? Were the tests from the same batch? Did you drink the exact same about of fluids each day? etc etc. I say this all to say try your bestest not to worry.

We're all test maniacs so there's no judgement here trust me! lol After my BFP I tested every other day until I ran out of tests. Try skipping a day, If you can, for sanity.

 

[Aysegul]

So they don't do blood pregnancy tests in Turkey or at least the area I am they're doing some sort of scan thing?? I have no idea, I've to drink 3 litres of water before... Anybody know what this is?? LOL

Similar times and fluid intake. Can't say 100% but about the same. Same test batch. I'm just really worried - have been ever since the positive tbh, first due to lack of any real symptoms, but testing has helped me not worry about that too much. And now this... I know, I know, I'm just asking for trouble with the testing. I just need to do something! There's a whole week to wait til I see the doctor. Think I will go insane in the meantime.
