Finally, Our Positive πŸ’•

So today I tested early, and we finally got our positive πŸ’•πŸ’• 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.

Xxxxxxxx

Ahhh thank you so much ❀️❀️ 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! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ xxx

OTD one week today. Time has stood still already haha xxx

β€’ in reply toElou81

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 πŸ˜‚) xxxx

Elou81 profile image
Elou81β€’ in reply to

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

β€’ in reply toElou81

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!! 🀞🏼πŸ’ͺπŸΌπŸ’•

Wishing you a positive too so much! I can't wait to find out and really have a good feeling about it for you! πŸ˜€. Xx
