5dp3dt - anxious yet hopeful

Yasmoun profile image
20 Replies

Hello , I am a mother to a baby angel, Maria; she left when she was 2 days old. After getting pregnant IVF-ICSI. we discovered that I have cervix incompetency. We tried every single possible way to keep my baby alive; we Failed.

Ever since we are TTC with IVF - ICSI; all unsuccessful.

Now I am 5dp3dt; I still did not POAS; and yes, neither did I shower since transfer date. I feel kind of sad.

This is the longest most anxious period one has to deal with. Anyone here also in the 2ww?

Yes me! 3dp5dt!

So sorry to hear about you baby girl, heartbreaking and yet you have found the strength to go on and try again. You are stronger than you know and you can do this! Good luck, I hope this is your time xx

Thank you very much for these words. I was just thinking “what if”!!

How do you feel? We are exactly same page!!! Horrible, right?

Baby dusts to you! May this be our time, hugs!

in reply toYasmoun

Yes I think we are the same dates!

I’m comparing everything to last time when I felt the implantation about 3dpt but that was a fresh round and my embryo split into twins so I’m not sure the 2 cycles really compare. I knew I was pregnant from about 6dpt but unfortunately was not meant to be. I flit from..this definitely hasn’t worked to this could have worked?!

I have had acupuncture this time which I think is keeping me a little calmer but I’m not sure it will change the outcome 🤷‍♀️ Just waiting and trying to pass the time and hope our little embryos have decided to stick around! Xx

I feel you. Yesterday and today I woke up scared. Stick baby stick. We want them so bad that we are so afraid of hearing negative words after 2 weeks of impatient waiting.

Sorry about your first pregnancy;

I too am comparing with my pregnancy with mariah, but it is different this time because with mariah I had implantation spotting so I called the dr and he was joyful.

This time and all the other times no spotting.

Why us aprilmama? This is what I think about non stop. And then I say; maybe I am not meant to have kids; when Mariah died, I went to an orphanage and asked about taking care of a young girl with no parents.

Not adoption. Just visits and outings and financial stuff. I Thought this is for mariah. But this girl instead she gives me life.

But I wanted to try again, and here we are all of us.

I never did acupuncture, it scares me; you are strong. But I hear it has good effects.

Try soft music. Amazing feeling of tranquility.

What a lovely thing to do for this little girl, I’m sure she appreciates you love and kindness.

We are one of the lucky ones having a 5 year old daughter already, I felt at the time she was a miracle and miracles don’t come twice so we started with IVF last year with little awareness of the ups and downs that lay ahead of us. Today I’m having negative thoughts about this time but I guess we just need to wait it out x

Oh and did you actually cook? Great for you to be able to stand on both feet and be functional. I just can’t get out of bed. Is it anxiety to loose these embies?? 😅🤓

Please rest, maybe stay bed rest for the week end, your implantation window is today and tomorrow ♥️♥️

Yasmoun, I’m in a similar position my ivf baby died after I gave birth to her at 24 weeks and 6 days. She lived the worst 23 days whilst the docs tried to save her. We are going to wait for the results of the placenta and try again. Your story gives me strength. Please feel free to message me if you want to talk. Sometimes it’s good to speak to those who’ve gone through the same x

I feel you!! My baby died at 29 weeks. She was beautiful, and tall!! I thought oh my god how did she fit in my belly?! I saw her in my dreams after she passed away; a very beautiful young woman, she was with grand father (who is also dead), they were walking on a very green field and I asked who is this beautiful young lady, a voice said , that’s your daughter! I woke up in tears. I miss her.

I know you miss your baby too.

Don’t lose hope, when will you start your IVF?
