So today I tested early, and we finally got our positive ππ I am in shock, disbelief, utterly astounded, gob smacked etc etc!!
I am very aware that we have had a few bfn's this past week and my heart breaks with you for your losses. It really does I am so so so sorry.
But I am so incredibly grateful for my bfp today, I have no words. This journey has literally been long and treacherous for us, with abandoned cycles, losses, surgeries and so much more before we have finally reached this stage and I still can't believe it's true.
I'm very conscious that we are not out of the woods yet and with past history I am at high risk of miscarriage again but for now I am revelling in my joy and enjoying my moment, but not taking it for granted.
I love seeing positive posts as it always gives me hope that one day we'll get there. And today I feel like we have. I hope I can help give others a boost of encouragement to show that absolutely cracking flipping miracles can happen!!
I have stage 4 endometriosis and in all I have had 9 plus surgeries in the last 18 years for various reasons, approx one every other year. I don't have a full sized womb anymore due to some of it having to be removed. I had a miscarriage in January 2016. Half way through this cycle of ivf they found a lump in my uterus so our cycle had to be abandoned and I had to go and have it removed. Thankfully it was benign. And so much more I can't even fit it all in a post.
I never thought we'd get to this day. We've had IVF and ICSI and today we got a positive. Unbelievable.
I'll let you know how my pregnancy progresses and I look forward to reading everyone else's updates too.
Sending lots of love to the whole group and thank you all so much for your support along the way.
This is amazing news and you so totally deserve it! You should be so happy, you have been through a lot to get that BFP! It wasn't my turn this time but I know there is hope in those that go on and get their BFPs. Unless you have experienced fertility issues no one can truely understand how precious that moment is ! Wishing you all the best in your pregnancy! X x
Thank you so much β€οΈ and I'm so sorry for you bfn π it's always hard I know it is. I was convinced I had a bfn too this morning as that's what I'm used to!! But you'll get there Hun, as frustrating as I know it is, you'll get there. Keep faith and keep positive. Lots of love xxxx
Fantastic news Bibi, after all you've been through I wish you a happy healthy pregnancy with no further complications. My sister has severe endometriosis and became pregnant on her second round of ivf. She had a very healthy, normal pregnancy and now has a gorgeous 7 year old boy xx
HUSE congrats this is the best post to wake up tooπwhat an inspirational story and I wish you all the very best for a happy and healthy pregnancy xxx
Ahhh thank you so much β€οΈβ€οΈ I do feel like I've been through the mill. Lol. Every time we would get more bad news, we ended up laughing at one point and the doctor looked really surprised but it was just obscene how much just KEPT going wrong so I laughed, then my other half looked at me and laughed (quickly followed by tears on my part!) but it has just been one thing after another for years and years I'm still in shock! Had to do another test again this morning just to be sure! ππ xxx
Omg amazing news!!!! Congratulations π! Hope your having a fab holiday too! So happy for you both! Hopefully it'll be me too soon with good news! Xxx

Hi! Thank you so much!! β€οΈ and yes hopefully it will be you too! I've got everything crossed for you and will be keeping an eye out for your posts! Xx
Thank you!! And MASSIVE good luck with your 2ww! It's just such a pain waiting! Lol. Eat healthy get loads of rest and aaaaaaallllll the best for your result!! When's your test date? xxx
Aww thanks hun x i can't imagine a better feeling than finding out you are pregnant. You will be on cloud 9. Make the most of every second you deserve it.
OTD one week today. Time has stood still already haha xxx
I know that feeling just all the waiting eurgh! Do you have any symptoms or feel any different at all? I'm super tired and have very sore boobs but I put it all down to the pessaries and other than that I have no symptoms yet at all. (Counting myself lucky for now though π) xxxx
I've had some tummy pain, first on right side last night and this morning on left side. Still very bloated but eating everything in sight! Not sure if that's boredom being off, although i did have sardines on toast for breakfast which is a first. I've read the progesterone can relate to all signs of pregnancy though and if anything i'll only just be at implantation stage. Hopefully!! I have been positive all the way through treatment and not prepared myself for bad news but its the only way i could get through it really.
Hopefully you won't suffer with sickness or anything. Have you any thoughts on whether its one bambino or more? Xxx
I think it's only one, everything tells you that you get stronger symptoms quicker with two so I think it's only one. One strong one I hope!! π€πΌπͺπΌπ
Wishing you a positive too so much! I can't wait to find out and really have a good feeling about it for you! π. Xx
Congratulations. This is amazing news. It is always wonderful to read positive post with the outcome that we are all waiting for. I wish you all the luck in the world and w/o be following your journey x
Thank you so so much it's the support from ladies like yourself that's helped make that bit easier. Especially more recently as I didn't use the group much before I didn't really realise how strong a network there is here. I wish I'd known sooner!
Reading stories like yours makes tears come to my eyes π’I'm really sorry to hear what you have been through I couldn't imagine going through what you have. Your are a very strong woman! This is amazing and I hope you all the best throughout your pregnancy πxx
Oh that's lovely to say thank you so much β€οΈβ€οΈ three days in and I want to do another test to check again!! π I keep saying it but I can't believe it!!! Haha I'm so happy I keep crying about it! πβ€οΈ thank you so much xxx
Thank you so much!! It's a strong line isn't it!!! I'm hoping I've got a fighter in here πͺπΌ must have to have made it this far with my battered old body! ππ β€οΈβ€οΈ xxx
Thank you so much!!! β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ no I did get the for free..... but I had to drive to my clinic to get them, which is 2 hours away.... ha. So yes and no I guess is the answer there!! xx
