Bless you, this is me! In the last 2 weeks I have taken about 15 tests πŸ™ˆ I love to see them get darker x

Thank god im not alone. Was you the same throughout the entire 6 weeks? Did you get worse? I can imagine I'll just continue to worry all the more πŸ™ˆ When I call with my result what should I expect? Xx

Yep, I've taken a test every single day since 8dp5dt. I think it's mainly because I have had a previous MC and just terrified that it might happen again. When you phone with your result they should book you in for a viability scan within 2-3 weeks. I ended up having an emergency early scan due to bleeding but all was perfect. Just the one out of my two embryos has snuggled in. I'm a worrier as well just like you but do try to enjoy the feeling, pregnancy is so special!

Hi. You’re definitely not on your own with this. So many of you cave in before the official test date. Well, all looks good for you at the moment, so stop spending your money and go out for a nice meal! Diane

This is our first IVF and we had 2 Fresh embryos transferred πŸ’ƒπŸ» I'm dying to find out what's going on. Hopefully they will give me some information when I ring tomorrow with my result πŸ’­β€πŸ€žπŸΌ Was you given a reason for your failed transfers? I'm so sorry to hear about those 😞

I'm exactly the same. I think I've peed on 12 sticks in the last 4 days to make sure but now I'm totally out of them. The last was a clearblur digital taken yesterday afternoon which showed pregnant 1-2 weeks. I'm just worried that by the time I have my beta it's not going to be there anymore. Only have to wait another day as its set for tomorrow but the worry is immense.

OMG I'm exactly the same. I am terrified of the result 😒 I hope I start to relax and enjoy it. I am thinking of taking up yoga πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ Good luck, keep me posted ❀🀞🏼

I think yoga is a great idea! Apparently Tai Chi is even better at making stress go away. I had to laugh reading all these responses. For someone with such great positive documentation, it’s still impossible not to be stressed out. It seems it’s the same all around. I advise my clients to give up google searching compulsively but I think it is out of their hands. The same is true of preg tests. I think maybe we were less stressed out in the good old days before Google and pee tests. In the end, neither seems to reassure. πŸ˜…

Hi, I am exactly the same !!! I started testing 5dp5dt and did another 6dp5dt!!! What day did you start testing? I am seriously obsessed and I’m only 7dpt. I’m now leaving it until 9dp5dt as I got myself very upset and worked up yesterday. I’m so scared though as my last two round have been chemicals. I understand everyone’s worries. Your tests look great though. I’m praying mine will look better on Saturday. Good luck 🀞🏻
