OTD nerves - update

Lorry1984 profile image

My OTD is tomorrow. I think I've been pretty relaxed up until now but tonight the reality of how important tomorrow is has hit me and Im feeling really nervous. I'll be up at 5 am to pee on a stick!

With this being my first IVF Im a bit unsure of it all. My egg collection was two weeks ago today. Does that mean my period would have been due today? If I get my BFP tomorrow (wishful thinking) do I continue with my pesseries?

Any advice appreciated.

Thank you xx

UPDATE - Cant quite believe Im saying this but we got a strong positive this morning. I've phoned our clinic and left a message asking for blood work as we've been here twice before (natural then IUI) and both times it ended in miscarriage at about 5 weeks. Surprised, excited, happy, nervous and anxious all at the same time. Thank you for all your well wishes and support. xxx

Hey Hey. You are on the finish line and I will have my fingers crossed for a win for you tomorrow! Pressaries usually continue up to 12 weeks depending on the clinic, I think some have difficulty protocols regarding the pressaries.

Best of luck and try to get some sleep 😁🙏🙏🤞🤞🤞🤞💗💗💗

Thank you!

So you continue them even if it's a negative? xx

Hello! Wishing you the best! You don’t continue if its a negative. Whatever the result you usually call your clinic speak to your nurse and tell them the result and then they will advise you further xxx

Just starting my 2ww so the nerves haven't hit me yet - but I can appreciate how overwhelming it feels. This is a massive thing we're doing!

EC is scheduled on your (artificial) ovulation day so a period should be about 14 days later... but all the medication can delay it, so afraid I can't give you a definite answer.

Yes definitely keep using the pessaries as the progesterone is to support your early pregnancy.

Wishing you all the best for your bfp 🤞

Ooh my OTD is tomorrow too although I’m a blood test at 10am. You continue the pessaries if it’s positive or the clinic tell you to.

Wishing you lots of luck for your early start 🤞🤞

Congrulations! Best of luck, see if you can get your clinic to check your progesterone levels (you may have to beg) as that was appear to be the reason for my early losses.xx
