And we’re off! Finally 🥳

[Solly-44]

Just got back from my scan on this lovely, sunny Friday (I wish, it’s chucking it down here) and we are good to go with the meds for FET number 3 🥳🥳🥳

Cycle was cancelled at my initial baseline scan a month ago, due to a cyst that’s thankfully now disappeared. For various reasons this cycle seemed such a long time coming although in reality it’s only about 6 or 7 weeks delay overall. But as I’m sure you can relate to, I’ve felt every minute of it!

Hoping for transfer of 2 embryos on the 28th, all being well 🙏

Anyone else transferring around then? Xx

[Millbanks]

Eeeek! Exciting!!! I’ve just started my meds for my FET so likely we’ll be transferring around the same time xx

[Tryagain45 in reply to Millbanks]

Good luck to you too!

[Solly-44 in reply to Millbanks]

Eeek indeed!! So exciting, good luck love xx

[Cinderella5]

Hey Solly, great news that you've managed to get things off the ground again! I completely know how you feel about waiting, its painful isnt it! Im transferring on 31st July so will just be a few days behind you! Good luck.xx

[Tryagain45 in reply to Cinderella5]

Good luck to you too! x

[Solly-44 in reply to Cinderella5]

Oh wow, yeah you’ve had a loooong wait. Finally comes around though! Good luck lovely xx

[Cinderella5 in reply to Solly-44]

Thank you!xx

[Tugsgirl]

Good luck. Hopefully third time lucky xx

[Solly-44 in reply to Tugsgirl]

Thank you! Hope bubs is doing well xx

[Tryagain45]

Great that you are on your way after a delay!! Delays can really be a pain as we all live by our cycles now and every week of delay seems like forever!! I've just started my meds for our 4th attempt at FET with donor eggs so due to transfer on 29th so around the same time. Our last embryo! I'm on super dose of steroids this time so a little wired!! Hope the next few weeks go really well for you and your lining prep goes well. x

[Cinderella5 in reply to Tryagain45]

Oh you're going again too! Im doing DE too, fingers crossed for this attempt! How much steroids are you taking?xx

[Tryagain45 in reply to Cinderella5]

yes fingers crossed for us both!! How many times have you been through this?

And always nice to find someone else using DE. I'm 45 so didn't have much choice!

I was on 4mg previously but now i'm on 16mg - my house looking very clean!!! I'm also on fematob, and clexane....

How about you?

[Cinderella5 in reply to Tryagain45]

Ive had 2xBFN with OE. 2xBFN with DE then after using steriods I got 2xBFPs but lost them. So this will be my 7th transfer. Im currently on 8mg of progynova and an HRT patch every 48hr (this will be increased after my first scan) and aspirin. We will add in clexane nearer embryo transfer and start steriods (prednisolone), 20mg for 4 days then down to 10mg, will be doing cyclogest pessaries and lubion injections too. I have 3 embryos left in the freezer. Im almost 42.xx

[Tryagain45 in reply to Cinderella5]

Wow....you've really had quite a journey. And I'm really sorry to hear that you've had so many losses along the way. You must be a very strong person to have kept going....hats off to you...

I think DE is hard - you just assume it's going to work because you've taken the age issue out of the picture!!

Sounds like you've every med in there to help the embryo along - all you can do is hope that this time, this will be the one....

Lots of luck to you xx

[Cinderella5 in reply to Tryagain45]

Thank you! Its not been an east ride, we were at the point of giving up when we got our first positive....well that just dangled a carrot! Im not sure we'll do anymore past our frozen embryos so hoping there is a magic one in there. Yes, I dont think there are anymore drugs to try so hopefully with a little luck.......! You're right there is high hopes for DE but for some that's not the case. Best of luck to you too.xx

[Tryagain45 in reply to Cinderella5]

Well fingers crossed one of those little snow babies is the magic one for you...once there are snow babies in the freezer, there is always hope...xxxx

[Solly-44 in reply to Tryagain45]

Thank you and hope you’re goes well too. I just had a little laugh at your comment on your house being very clean 😂 I was like that on clomid, full of a wired sort of rage energy and scrubbing everything in sight! Good luck love xx

[Tryagain45 in reply to Solly-44]

Yes if all else fails I'll have a clean house to drink wine in! Gonna try and use the energy to get lots of jobs done this month - it'll help pass the time!

Loads and loads of luck to you xx

[L2D2]

That’s good news Solly-44. Thank you for taking the time to respond to me this morning when you had your own plans going on. Very sweet of you ☺️

Hoping for this going well and dreams coming true 🤞🏻 xx

[ZnonB]

Good luck! Good luck! Good luck! xxxx

[Solly-44 in reply to ZnonB]

Thank you 😊 xx

[Picalilli99]

Yey so pleased for you! So did that mean the cyst went away on it’s own without surgery? If so that’s also fab news. Wishing you so much luck for this cycle and for your transfer on the 28th ☘️🤞☘️ Xxx

[Solly-44 in reply to Picalilli99]

It did, I went in thinking it wouldn’t have so it was a lovely surprise! Thanks so much - hope the rest of your 2WW flies by (chance would a fine thing I know) xxx

[Picalilli99 in reply to Solly-44]

That’s great news - and such a relief I imagine that it won’t cause any further delays. Ha thanks yeah I wish time could go this slowly when I’m on my hols! 🤣 xx

[Core]

Good luck, I’m just waiting for my period to start and then will be starting next FET so hopefully won’t be far behind you xx

[Solly-44 in reply to Core]

Ah thank you & good luck to you too. Will be keeping an eye out xx

[crisps88]

Good luck lovely!! Have everything crossed for you. Glad it’s begun now xxx

[Solly-44 in reply to crisps88]

Thank you! Hope you’re doing well and getting to relax a bit after your scan xx

[MightyB]

Good luck! I have my third transfer coming up, first FET... Expected transfer around 23rd Oct. Last NHS-funded chance. We have MFI plus mild endometriosis plus mild adenomyosis so they'll only let me have 1 embryo at a time.

First cycle was chemical, second = BFP but lost in MMC at 8.5 weeks after 3 weeks of hyperemesis.

I am sorry to hear about your losses too.

[Solly-44 in reply to MightyB]

I’m sorry, that sounds like a rough ride. All the luck for your next transfer and thank you! Xx

[Rella22]

Best wishes so exciting!!

[Solly-44 in reply to Rella22]

Thanks lovely, have you started your cycle now? Xx

[Rella22 in reply to Solly-44]

Yeah I’m 6 days into stimulation and planned egg collection for Thursday if all looks well

[Solly-44 in reply to Rella22]

Oh wow, all go then! Huge luck for Thursday xx

[Bluetop1981]

I should be having my (first) FET on the 28th 🤞🏼. This would be after a 6 month delay due to a couple of complications but I’m just glad to be back on track again. Good luck to you!

[Solly-44 in reply to Bluetop1981]

Oh my goodness I just read your last post. What a nightmare! Glad you’re better and able to get going, good luck to you too xx

[MightyB]

How are you all getting on? My OTD is 6th November... So tempted to test early!

[Solly-44 in reply to MightyB]

😬 not long to go now for you! I’m ok thanks, swerving between thinking being ill has messed it all up, and feeling too ill to stress about anything!

I’ve had zero cramping or anything this time which I had quite badly from the day of transfer both my last goes.

How have you been? Any symptoms? Do you think you’ll test early?? Xx

[MightyB in reply to Solly-44]

Hey, hope you are feeling better.

I just tested early and got a BFP! On 8dp5dt. Only symptom has been feeling nauseous last couple of mornings. I had hyperemesis last time I got pregnant (followed by MMC) so am pretty fearful but obviously very happy.

When is your OTD? Good luck!

[Solly-44 in reply to MightyB]

Oh wow, this is amazing news! Congratulations you must be dazed right now! Mine isn’t until 12th xx
