anxious waiting for viability scan....

14 Replies

How does anyone survive the wait for the viability scan?? - it is killing me....

I feel like I have pregnancy symptoms - but then it could be just the cyclogest.....

So hard not knowing what is going on in there.....

I keep wasting money on those bloody clear blue tests....

I know others are in the same boat.....

Our scan is 4th August and feels like a lifetime......

Hey. My scan is on 3rd. I cannot wait. Like you I have symptoms that could be pregnancy or progesterone, nobody knows. I have some spotting too and ,by the looks of it implementation bleeding- as per Dr Google. I'm trying to stay normal, I have a lively 3.5 year old miracle so we are camping the Weekend. I mostly want to cry and keep checking my party liner but he seems to have a different idea of fun 😂

Keeping busy is my method. I wonder what others do?

Yes we have a toddler exactly the same age how funny!

Trying to keep busy - but it's so hard to concentrate.

I keep going over scenarios of good and bad.

I have no reason to think it should be bad.....

Fingers crossed for the 3rd for you!!

That is funny! We are on the same shoes 😂I'm looking at the bad scenario . The glass is always half full here. No disappointments if there are no expectations.

I've been dragged through fields and ponds today, sleeping on a matterss, fighting for space with the boy. I only remember that Im pregnant on the toilet or when I can't have a beer in a pub 😂😂

Well done for reaching the next chapter in hell. I won't say it'll go quick because you know it won't, but it'll be worth the wait when you see that little blip on the screen. The mad rush of aniexty when your on the bed and the nurse is silent and looking at what's what... is unreal, but then you'll see that little ticker pumping away and the sence of relief you'll feel (even for minute) is phenomenonal. about the only part of the whole ivf thing when I felt like I could breathe again. all the best lovely, do what you need to do to get through this xxx

We have our scan on the 3rd August too. I'm not coping well at all. Our GP won't give us HCG testing either! I scroll through all forum sites and see so many heartbreaking stories, I feel so stressed I could cry!

It's horrible this waiting game but I know it could get worse in 10 days time! Finding it hard to try and stay positive!

Our clinic confirm the pregnancy with one blood test, but I requested another for my peace of mind a week later to make sure it was increasing. Maybe see if you can get it done privately to help with the wait!

I know how you feel, my first ivf pregnancy I kept thinking ill miscarry everyday and that it's not real until my daughter started kicking around 18 weeks

Then with my second ivf pregnancy I was less stressed out but nonetheless felt at ease around 18 weeks when my son started kicking up a storm

in reply to Jana483

Yes - I look forward to this!! X

Waiting to go into my appointment for my scan.....very nervous. Fingers and toes crossed!
