OTD tomorrow and Iโ€™m terrified!

Hi fellow IVF warriors ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ๐ŸŒˆ

Tomorrow is our official OTD and I am absolutely terrified to do the test! I have had a fair few symptoms but Iโ€™m on a high dose of the drugs so it may well be the medications Iโ€™m on.

Iโ€™m working from home tomorrow but I have got a number of deadlines to meet so Iโ€™ve decided Iโ€™m going to take a sample of my wee first thing and then use that and โ€˜freshโ€™ wee to test later in the day!

We have no Frosties available so it will be back to square one if it hasnโ€™t worked which fills me with dread as itโ€™s so hard to keep taking time off work. I havenโ€™t told my boss yet but may need to discuss with him going forward I think.

Any advice on coping with a negative result? I feel so grateful to get this far but itโ€™s so hard not to get your hopes up isnโ€™t it?

Thank you so much for all your thoughtful, kind and fab advice. Youโ€™re all amazingly strong and inspirational women. xxx ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿ€๐ŸŒˆ

We all get our hopes up itโ€™s all we have going forward on this shit roller coaster is hope and unfortunately with a negative the only thing we can do is pick ourselves up and go again (shit advise I know cause I cried for two week my tear ducts have dried up so Iโ€™ve officially stopped crying now ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ but look positive thinking of course it will be a bfp Iโ€™m rooting for you and I look forward to congratulating you tomorrow darling ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž

Wishing you the very best of luck, I always waited till OTD or day before as I couldnโ€™t handle the torture of testing every day.

Trust me am only 3dpt & already convinced I have symptoms ๐Ÿ˜‚. It is a crazy 2ww and I always think first week takes ages then 2nd speeds up and you almost donโ€™t want to do the test. Thatโ€™s a shame you have deadlines with work, so understand why you would wait.

All I can say is when I thought it Defo hadnโ€™t worked it was a BFP and the time I was convinced it had was a BFN.

What will be will be am praying you get the news you greatly deserve ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

Hello, thank you for your kind message. Yes, that what I have felt like. I have been so tempted to test early but then worried if I did that I would be causing unnecessary upset if it was negative.

I was exactly the same! I was convinced I said symptoms from early on! ๐Ÿ˜‚ How are you feeling?

Keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you. When is your OTD? I hope the 2ww goes quickly for you! xxx ๐Ÿ€๐Ÿคž๐Ÿ€

Thank you so much Cici. Wishing you all the best with your journey too. xx

Wishing you the very best of luck for a positive result.

The only way I have picked myself up from a negative is by starting to plan my next transfer/cycle as it gives me something to focus on but sending positive vibes xx

I have felt exactly the same! I go from being convinced Iโ€™m pregnant and then waking up the next day thinking itโ€™s definitely not worked! ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธThe first week went quite slowly but I have found this week has gone fairly quickly.

All I would say Kat is its 50/50 so letโ€™s focus on the positives of it being a BFP u have had some symptoms which sound like a good sign so focus on this. If it is a negative u will get thru it & u can deal with that once u know 4 sure but u may not even need to. I have everything crossed and am wishing u the very best of luck ๐Ÿคžโ˜บ๏ธ๐Ÿ€ xx

Thinking of you today! Fingers crossed itโ€™s a BFP but if not, try to remember the drs learn so much from each round so they should be able to improve your chances for next time. Remember to put yourself first, donโ€™t be afraid to call in sick if you donโ€™t feel up to meeting those deadlines. You are an ivf warrior but remember we are still only human so Whatever the results, give yourself some headspace to process the outcome.wishing you all the best xx

Good Luck today ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป๐Ÿ€

I didnโ€™t have any Frosties either so I get how youโ€™re feeling.

I actually booked up to see a show the day after my OTD so that either way it would take my mind off things. But honestly the only way round it is time and in my case counselling.

However donโ€™t think about anything like that yet! Sending positive thoughts x
