Thanks so much honey. Barely slept last night as terrified it's a chemical or blighted as so low but.. I'll go get tested again on Wednesday and hopefully my little 26 has leapt up to 50 or more. I keep checking every half hour or so as am sure must be on period! xxx
Thanks Poppy! Don't think it's really sunk in yet. I don't quite believe it especially as numbers so low. How are you getting on? Your weekend sounded utterly terrifying. Sending lots of love xx
I think it's hard to tell from your first hcg as it seems that the ranges vary so much from person to person. I really do hope that your next set show they are doubling, but until then I hope that you can take joy in that BFP! 🤗🥰💕. I'm doing ok thanks, was such a relief to have my scan yesterday after my scare over the weekend and amazing to get the news of my little twins!! Resting and relaxing for the next few days to ensure everything has settled down xx
Thank you! Was a bit of a shock for us! We started our IVF journey in jan 2019 but had been ttc for 3 years before this but failed due to my endo and blocked tube (which I didnt know about until late last year)! After a failed fresh cycle we did a double FET this time but I was not actually expecting both to stick!! Trying not to think too much about logistics right now as I might totally freak out!!!! xx
Certainly not how I thought I’d feel. Like Beyoncé headlining in her gold gown... hahaha. Just feel sore and crampy and in need of a nap all the time... and confused... very confused xx
You probably got a BFN yesterday as the sensitivity of most home tests is 25 so it may not have been enough to pick it up. Your levels should keep doubling every 48-72 hours so you should start getting BFPS on home tests soon.
Yeah - I think so - must have been late implantation. Slow little growers... Can't believe one made it! I'll get bloods done again on Weds - so hopefully we see better numbers. How are you getting on with your bump? Showing yet? xxx
I’ve looked about 4 months pregnant for ages but it’s bloating from the medication and eating too much on the steroids mostly. In a few weeks when I’m off everything I should be able to see what is baby. All going well. Had a reassurance scan on Friday and baby was wriggling and had strong heartbeat.
Thanks so much Kitcat - gosh I'm just praying one sticks with such low numbers! The cramps all day every day are so unnerving. Hope all going well with your 2020 bean! xx
I think we're so much more aware of every slight twinge and cramps are so common at the very beginning but it doesn't make them any less scary. Looking forward to hearing updates over the coming weeks! All good my end x
😮😮😮😮 bloody brilliant! I’m so excited to read this after you got the negative yesterday. Shows early testing can be so wrong. Well done you and your uterus 💖💖💖xxx
Thanks so much honey. The levels are so low they just couldn't have been detected on a hometest. Will feel safer when done bloods again in a couple of days! How you getting on with all your poking and prodding? xxx
Phew!! Amazing isn’t it! Urgh I’ve got to have this swollen Fallopian tube clipped first which should be in about 6 weeks, then the following cycle should be good to have our first transfer - hopefully by the end of October- fingers crossed xx
Yay amazing news! Will be exciting to hear how many of the embies are making you their new home. Keeping everything crossed for a healthy pregnancy and so happy that you get to post a sensitive post - living the dream lol 😂🍍🤞🏻
Thanks my lovely. Hope one makes it! Will be happier once had my bloods done again on Weds to check they're OK. You need at least 100 for a viable pregnancy on week 4. Love your photo - a very fine pineapple indeed Are you gearing up for your next transfer? xx
Trying to, just waiting for my next day 1 to pin it all down, although really struggling to get back into a healthy eating & exercise regime at the moment but I’m blaming my crazy long cycle which seems to have gone a bit haywire after last bfn 🙈 the chocolate cravings are serious right now lol...
Sending so many positive vibes and baby dust for your beta tomorrow - come on hcg levels 💪🏻
Thanks honey. You’ll get there. This stuff all just takes its time and what you want hasn’t got a damn thing to do with it! Talk about an exercise in faith and patience 😱 xx
Except I slept at 12 was up at 1 and 3 and 5 and alarm went off at 6. Googling low hCG levels and blighted ovums... I'm such a loser! Feel better now at work xxx
Thanks honey. I was stuck in a blighted ovum google hole around 4am... hCG so low. But I need to just keep positive! Sending all the love for the fourth IVF go is the charm! xxx
Thanks so much Lexy. How you finding the Mindful IVF - is it chilling you out? What day is your egg collection? You got some nice eggies waiting for collection? xx
Hey lovely. My collection is tomorrow! Eek. I’ve been keeping myself busy at work so haven’t over focused on it. Have downloaded the app in case I need it tonight or tomorrow! Xx
Thanks my lovely. Results so low I'm pretty anxious but still furthest I've got. You're very brave to be back on here after your terrible time last week. Sending you lots of love xx
Oh MY GOD I’m so happy for ya I could burst .Your post has just made me cry a little I get so wrapped up in people’s stories I’m genuinely thrilled for you xxxx
Today's your day right? You got this. Wishing you all the luck in the world? Will you do the blood test today so you know for sure? Lots and lots and lots of love xx
Hi yes it’s today, have my sample ready and waiting for DP to get up. It is 15dpt today will be fifth time using one of these cassette type pregnancy tests. They are super sensitive no need for blood test well never had to have one. Still no period....praying 🙏🏻 in my head that it was late implantation x
We had a MMC a while ago and we’ve our official consultant appointment in September, so it’s likely. We’re still trying obviously but no BFP as yet. My weekly reflexology has de-stressed me massively and I feel more positive about all the tests etc, we’re currently unexplained as they can’t find anything too wrong! We’ll be going privately (and possibly abroad) after getting our NHS tests completed as my partner has a lovely teenage son from long ago, plus my age means we don’t qualify for much help in our local area. This group has helped me to find information out massively and reassured me that +40 births do happen! Xxx
Yeah I have two stepkids in oz, 10 and 13. Miracles can and do happen all the time. We’re just not in control. Unexplained with my husband and I too. Got married at 40 and thought would just happen... so sorry to hear about your MMC. Good luck for Sept. I looked at clinics in UK but Greece was so warm and friendly we chose there instead xx
Sounds similar to my situation... except you have the BFP already! Hopefully it I’ll get one soon! Could you pm the details of the Greece clinic you chose? I’m interested in recommendations.
Thanks so much hon. My two IVF experiences were night and day. Short protocol didn't suit me at all while the long protocol I had this time much gentler on my body. Baby Dust! xxx
Baby's great thanks hon. Feeding like a champion and pooing like an elephant!! It's so hard not to be anxious at this point, but you've got to take the small victories xxx
Thanks honey - my numbers are horribly low but... trying to keep the faith and keep pushing through. Back at work so can sort of focus... sort of. Sending you lots of love as you get through your awful news. Lots of love xx
Oh thanks so much Cinderella! It is a massive worry but... what in this journey isn't? Trying to stay positive. We just have to accept what happens don't we? Nothing else to be done. Wish I was religious! xxx
Thanks honey - just praying not a chemical as so low - will go for follow up test on Weds. Sending lots of healing love to you after your epic cycle xx
Thanks lovely. Waiting for my period. If it goes by the book (of course it won’t!) it should arrive today and we can start yet another rollercoaster ride! Crossing my fingers tight yours is just a late implanter. Keep us posted! Xx
Thanks babe. Bloody petrified and couldn't sleep as levels so low! But this journey always kicks it out of you. Trying to stay positive amongst the cramps! Good luck to you! Will you take a bloodtest today as you're 14DPO! xxx
Thanks. My clinic don’t seem to do blood tests. They just told me to take a hpt 14 days after ET which is Friday. I only found out that others have blood tests reading this forum. Not sure why my clinic don’t do them? Hopefully you’re levels will rise and you’ll be able to sleep better.
Aw thanks so much honey. Terrified I'll lose it but have to lose that mindset as whatever will be will be. Hopefully hCG will be higher on Wednesday but... for now... I have a BFP - and should rejoice! (If I wasn't so knackered from barely sleeping and getting up at 6am to spend a day in school) xxxx
Wow what fantastic news! Crossing fingers for you. I’m 42 and had a second failed cycle in my Oxford Clinic this March. On the verge of giving up tbh, but your post is so encouraging. Sounds like your at a good Clinic?? X
I had 9 to begin with and yesterday 7 fertilised. I wont hear again till tomorrow where they might ask me to come in, if not Saturday 🤭✨ thankyou for asking xx
Thanks so much. Your hCG is out of this world! I must confess to being slightly envious. Mine was a rather worrying 26.4 on 11dp3dt so I went again last night - praying, hoping, wishing for a doubling xxx
Thank you, that’s very kind. We are over the moon to get such good results, but still nervous for the scan today. Try not to focus on the start number, main thing is to see the increase. Have you had your repeat blood test now? How did you get on? X x x x
Thanks Shellybean! Early days yet so just hoping, wishing and praying. Feels wonderful and terrible at the same time. Bizarro. Good luck with your round! Are you at it already? I don't remember if I responded to your aspirin post but I have been taking a baby one religiously since transfer xxx
