Oh my god! Congratulations xx

I’m sure ivf triggers natural pregnancies- I have two colleagues at work who this exact thing happened to. Also happened to my podiatrist and have seen it several times on here. I wish someone would research it! Congratulations!

What a lovely surprise for you, huge congratulations. Enjoy this moment it’s so magical .It took me a while to sink in that I was pregnant!!! xoxo 😘

Ooh my lordy, that's awesome. Congrats, absolutely brilliant xxx

Hi Shannon, I’m pleased to hear someone else has had this too.

We’re just waiting for the clinic to open to see if we can get a scan today after pulling a shock sick day 🙈

Miracles do happen trust me. My baby was coming at 24 weeks. Was told to terminate. I refused and 6 weeks later after total hospital bestest I was induced. Now he is doing brill despite being 10 weeks early.

That's brilliant. So happy for you, congratulations xx

Could it be your IVF didn’t fail and you’re much further now than you’d normally expect? Oh this is so exciting!! Good luck x

Hi Olivia. Sperm can be sneaky little things and live for quite a few days, hiding in your tubes, so who knows??? Lovely news, so I hope all continues to go well. Diane

Hi, so basically the failed ivf was because you had a negative test and then a ‘normal’ period? I ask because basically I have just done a round of IVF and failed test on OTD and had a very heavy bleed but have had a positive test since and HCG rising. Can people really have periods and remain pregnant?? I’m so confused.

Sorry I forgot to say congratulations. Xx

Olivia80 profile image
Olivia80 in reply toDolly8

That is seemingly what happened, yes. But I didn’t know until 10days late for next period and just took a test out of interest as I’m never late and was just assuming I was because of IVF messing up your system.

Dolly8 profile image
Dolly8 in reply toOlivia80

Wow. You have given me so much hope. Sorry to be graphic but was the AF you had like normal period? Have you had an HCG blood yet? Or a scan? Do keep us posted. Wishing you all the very best xxx

Olivia80 profile image
Olivia80 in reply toDolly8

Just killing time waiting for a scan at 4.30 🙈

AF was 4 days long, as normal, but perhaps slightly lighter. Certainly enough to think anything wouldn’t survive in there!

God. I will be thinking good things for you at 4.30 xx

Hi everyone, not quite the update I wanted to be posting.

There’s no pregnancy.

There may be a non viable pregnancy lurking, or small ectopic but they couldn’t see any obvious cause so have an urgent referral to hospital tomorrow 🙄

Thanks for all your well wishes.

So sorry to read this after the initial excitement :( I really hope this is simple to be managed and you can carry on with your journey very soon. So sad this was not the amazing surprise we were all hoping for, but you'll get there. I had an awful 2017 including MCs but got my BFP this year after IVF. Make sure you allow some time to heal your mind and not just your body, all these emotions are terribly intense. All the best xxx

in reply toOlivia80

Oh I’m so sorry. Could it be too soon to scan? Absolutely devastated for you. Had a loss myself last year, it’s truly heartbreaking. I hope you have lots of support around you. xoxo

The sonographer estimated we’d be 9+5 so it would have been very obvious. Thanks x
