Waiting to start IVF in January anyone else?

1Hi Ladies,

Beth - It's so nerve wracking but cautiously a brilliant start to a beautiful BFP hopefully

Mobaby - thats mean that they make you test the trigger out even if you dont want to! Heres hoping the line gets a bit lighter and then darker again.

Afm, ET went well, both the best ones we had left defrosted ok this morning and had already started to compact by the time i went in for transfer. Transfer last time was difficult so im hoping the fact that it was so much easier this time will be a good thing. Had acupuncture before and im heading back there in 45 minutes for post transfer treatment. Cautiously optimistic at the moment as this time (bizarrely!) I feel PUPO....long may it last lol.

Hope everyone else is ok xxxx

 

[MoBaby]

Lizzie that is super exciting!!!! Great embryos

 

[BethK]

Lizzie78 - Congratulations on your ET! Those embies sound great! One of mine had started compaction too. x

Aurora - Good luck for egg collection tomorrow! Keeping my fingers crossed that you get those 3 good ones

Bumpsparkle - Hope AF is here today!

ILT - How did your scan go?

Comfy - Hope you're doing ok?

Mo - I hope those test lines get darker for you, what day are you on now?

Jaybo - Hope you're doing ok too!

Beth I'm 4dp5dt... Had ovidrel jan 31st, and 2500 units hcg on feb 3 and feb 6. The morning before my booster on feb 6 test was super faint so I figured it would be completely gone in 4-5 days. I'm only 3 days past the second hcg booster though so I know it's more than likely from that. Just to dark to be real at 9dpo. but I can dream!

Good Morning Ladies,

First of all, Beth!!! OMG! I totally missed your FRER test yesterday! Congratulations!!! YOU ARE PREGNANT! It's an unbelievable feeling huh? I still feel like that until now. Trying not to get excited until I see something today . I can't believe I missed that post . I got tired when the clock hit 2pm every day now lol.

I'll have my scan in 3 hours since it's only 6am here.

Jaybo, I can't believe you haven't tested yet! AF is officially late today, right? Lady, you have a very strong will power!!!

Lizzie, Congrats PUPO!!!!

Aurora, you'll be PUPO too tomorrow .

Star, when is transfer again?

Cmo, thinking of you. Hopefully the headache goes away in a couple of days. Mine did when I started the stims. Try not to think too much about this whole process (I know it's impossible). Deep breath my friend...deep breath. You can do this and it will work!!

Mo, according to the article that I read, it'll take a week for 2500 HCG shot to go away. Hmmm...not sure if I believe that. https://www.babyhopes.com/articles/hcgshot.html I did read elsewhere that it really depends on your body metabolism. For me, it took less than 14 days for the 10k HCG shot to go away. I think it took about 10-11 days to go away. So hopefully, we'll see something soon!

Comfy, how are you doing?

BMW, Bump, mmm...I think I forgot a few names here since we have a lot of people here . I hope all of you are doing well. Sorry for the long post.

ILT my re said 5 days for the 2500 so idk.. My OTD is monday. I hope to see lines getting darker up until then. I know it's too early now but with ds at 4dpt the live got darker in the pm and continued to get darker. I was just hoping for that but that was a fet with 5000 u on ovulation day and 2 2500 booster the same. I hate this is a waiting game. Thankfully I'm working the next 2 days so that will distract me

I had no idea the trigger shot could give a false positive!

I had Ovitrel trigger shot 2 days before EC so it was on Wednesday 28th Jan, hoping my bfp isn't from that, we shall see on Friday when i test again. OTD is next Monday.

I hope the line comes back for you!

 

[Jaybo]

Lizzy - glad to hear your transfer went well. Congratulations on being pupo!! Time to put your feet up. Have you got some time off work?

Beth - I'm sure after 14 days your trigger would be out of your system. Mine had gone within a week. FX the lines are darker in a couple of days & you can convince DH too.

ILT - I know, I feel totally crazy for not testing! I don't actually have any in the house. Lol! I am a day late now but I read that cyclogest can delay AF. I have no more symptoms, I was hoping for some nausea as the trigger made me feel really sick, but nope, no sickness for me.

 

[MoBaby]

Beth I think you are safe!!
Jaybo: test!!

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

Jaybo: just because you have no symptoms don't mean a bad thing. My friend didn't have any MS or anything and she was pregnant with twins . I agree with Mo. Peer pressure ahahhahaha...nahh...

Mo, was today's test darker than yesterday?

Beth, I am sure that's a true BFP! . That's too dark for it to be HCG.

 

[MoBaby]

I didn't do a frer yesterday. Will do one tomorrow am. It may get lighter before darker though

 

[lizzie78]

Ha ha ha I cant believe we are all pressuring poor Jaybo to test but....oh heck Jaybo do it!!

No time off work Mo as they don't have an IVF poilicy and i need my annual leave for a course Im doing in April. I took the time off last time and the tww really dragged so hoping this different approach might actually be a good thing for me.

xxx

 

[MoBaby]

I wasnt going to take off but m-w are real stressful at work so I decided to keep it off. But this week has dragged!!!! I think its best to be as occupied as possible.

 

[Jaybo]

So I'm thinking maybe I won't test at all, I'll just wait another 8 months and see if a baby pops out or not! What d'ya think?

 

[Bumpsparkle]

Lillie - congrats on being PUPO!! Did they tell you what grade the embies are as some clinics tell you and some don't?

Afm - Still waiting! Been quite stressed out at work so I reckon that's delayed AF. Took a hpt that was a bfn 2day so pretty sure the witch will now turn up any second lol! Got the pre AF headache kicking in so here's hoping for 2mrw! Yawn x

 

[Bumpsparkle]

Jaybo - Fab idea hehe!

 

[lizzie78]

Jaybo im all for that approach. Couldn't take it myself as i'd use it as an excuse to eat for two and be devastated 2 years later when I had to face up to the fact that i was just being a piggie

Bump, I think they said last time that they were grade 2, both 9 cells. I didnt ask any more as i tend to get a bit google obsessive with details. Hope AF arrives soon - horrid thing never appears when we want it and always early when we dont!

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

Jaybo! LOL! That's such a great idea.

Bump, hopefully AF arrives for you soon.

Just got back from my U/S and we have 1! Woohoo..I was a bit scared of having twins to be honest. Not sure what to do with them hahaha. The only bad thing is the baby is measuring 3 days behind. RE said it's normal to be 1 -2 days behind but 3 days behind the risk of miscarriage is still pretty high. But he "thinks" that everything is going to be ok. It could be that he was in a bad spot so he wasn't able to measure properly. It did take a while for him to find the heartbeat. I had to held my breath a couple of times. But, we did hear heartbeat . So, we'll see. I am feeling ok. It is what it is. We still have 4 frozen embies. So, if something happened, we can always transfer more. But if that happen, I think I want to do PGD on all of the frosties before we do anything. So that's my story for today . Crossing my fingers and hope the little one catch up in the next 14 days.

ILT: I'm sorry to hear that. It's great that there was a hb though. With my mc, there was never a hb. Hopefully, it was just a measuring issue. I think at this stage they are smaller than a grain of rice, so it's tough to get a precise measurement. Fingers crossed!

When is your next scan?

 

[star25]

Ilt, such good news you heard the heartbeat and all seemed well, I'm
sure you will be fine, you Have been til now and I'm sure your little one will continue to grow strong!

Beth, I'm sure thats a real bfp!

Lizzie, yay!!! So happy for you being pupo

Jaybo, good luck for when you do decide to test, I go bk for scan Mon and if all ok transfer will be a week later I hope!

Bumpsparkle, hope it's tomoro!!
