Hello ladies,
This is my first time to post but I’ve been reading on here for advice and reassurance and following people’s journeys.
I started my first ivf journey (long protocol) in Feb this year,I walked in desperate,aware of the huge cost (£5k) and protecting myself from over expectation. This is because the nurses at my clinic were very reasonable and shared information of the potential hiccups at each stage.
I used buserelin which got me into zombie state and worried that menopur would get me over the top. Menopur ,dosage 300mg was however okay on the body although didn’t stimulate me enough and I was concerned at each scan, not many eggs (7) and they weren’t growing fast enough.
Anyway,we went ahead to EC,got 4 eggs,3 fertilised and all went on to blastocyst,with one 5AB transfered and other 2 digenerating on thawing. Btw,EC freaked me out so much that I had the runny tummy 2 times as we waited but...it was the best stage in the process as honestly,apart from the aneasthetic needle (had got used to being jabbed at this point). I was out for the whole experience and only imagined afterwards how wide my legs had been thrown to get in there 😊
Anyway,I tested last Wednesday 28/03 (but in the afternoon as I had travelled for work and we were anxious to find out soon as I got back). We got a positive on the hcg test and then bought a clear blue from Tesco for am testing which was proper faint so when we told the nurse,she said we repeat the test today,Monday 02/04,early in morning. So I’ve just been through another few days of waiting and hoping and praying for my baby to hold on and feed feed feed. We’ve now got a nice dark second line on the hcg test and I am really grateful.
I have prayed for my clinic,my nurses,consultants,my “babies” from day one of jabbing and I continue to do so,I thank God for his favour and grace and pray the same for all you ladies. It is difficult wanting something so badly and not being in control at all and I pray that Jesus takes the wheel in your journies.
Please excuse my long post,I’m not good at sharing but thought it unfair not to.I believe we should all encourage each other and we are lucky to have each other to lean on.
God bless you all!
A positive result!!!!!!!!!
We finally got our ++ positive ++ 🌈🦄❤️
Can't believe its a Positive
