Hey you, baby dust and loads of luck to us all xx I'm day 4 post 2 embryo transfer! We had a failed one last time in September last year. But this time feels very different ๐Ÿ˜ I feel very different, a lot calmer (obviously having a bad moment now and then, but it's under control a lot more). I've been testing last time from day 3 or 4 I think, crazy girl. This time around I'm not messing about and going straight to do bloods next Thursday! Wishing you all the best and to see them 2 big fat lines โค๏ธ

Lots of luck to you too. The 2 week wait is hard but Iโ€™m trying to keep occupied and determined not to test untill test day. Hope you are feeling ok. Keep me posted x

Thank you darling, yeah it's the hardest part. First 3 days are easier coz you don't want to test or anything. But once you get to day 5/6 it's getting so so hard... Im still thinking will I test next Wednesday or just go and get bloods done on Thursday ๐Ÿ’ญ I've had 2 5d blastocyst of a very good quality. So it's even harden thinking what if they both attached, I should see positive results sooner... But holding on so far ๐Ÿ™ˆ do you have any cramping at all? I did the first 48 hours, now it's just a little niddle like cramp at times but that's it xx hugs

Boobs hurt but nothing like pregnancy boobs pain I've experienced before, but more of a monthly preperiod ones.I have a daughter who is 9 from a previous relationship, we have male infertility atm. That's how I know. Had such a meltdown yesterday, but feeling a bit better today. XX

Hold on if you can and don't forget despite having a not so little one already, every time is different.....sending all the good luck your way. I just got back from our embryo transfer and we popped in a 5AB. One other to freeze of good quality and we'll hear about 3 other potentials tomorrow. ๐Ÿคž

Oh baby dust and loads of stickiness your way:) let me know how you get on! I think after 5 years of negative tests and last years unsuccessful transfer there is so much panic and hope at the same time :) we had 2 transferred but lucky to have 9 frosties still. Doesn't get easier though. So just enjoying being pregnant for now ๐Ÿ’‹โค๏ธ fingers crossed for you and the little potentials too! Xx

I am 3dp5dtโ€ฆok so farโ€ฆ.boobs are sore but they have been since my trigger shot(ovitrelle) so def not going to test as would probably get a false positive at this stage. Test day is Sunday 17th. Stay positive! It ainโ€™t over til itโ€™s over!! Good luck to you both and keep busy x

ArishaCโ€ข in reply toSianieShorts

And to you too! I'm not being negative to be fair, I think we are going through all sorts of emotions from the transfer day to the bloods day. I specifically ordered first response couple of days ago for tomorrow ๐ŸŒผ we transferred 2 5d blastocysts:) so hopefully something will be already showing on days 7 (tomorrow). I've had a frozen embaby transferred, so if it's positive it for sure positive :) baby dust and loads of happy thoughts to us in the meantime ๐Ÿ’‹โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’‹โค๏ธ

Ladies I can't belive I am writing this ๐Ÿ˜ญ I've bought first response and told my hubby (he is really against doing it early to avoid disappointment) and he put me against doing one today. I'm almost full 6 days past transfer at this point. So I went for my FMU and didn't do a test, went back to bed, woke up and thought ah ill just do a cheap one from wilko as its probably negative and I had such a tummy ache all night I was sure I'm coming on. Its a rubbish test and with 20 sensitivity not even the 10 that doctors gave me. So I did it... And there was no line... For about 3 minutes! And then here it is!! It's faint, it's not even noticable that much on a pic, but it's THERE! it's as thick as the test line. And omg I've done these particular tests many times to know how a negative looks like... Im now sitting here being happy, scared, excited. I was 100% sure it didn't work. I'll take a first response later on but I'm not sure would it show not on the FMU coz I drink loads and loads of water during the day. But for sure will do one tomorrow on FMU, which I hope will come back positive! Wishing us all the baby dust and for them little lines to get darker and stronger โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’‹

Thank you so much xxx honestly I've been crying with emotions, especially after doing another test with 10iu sensitivity and the line coming almost streight away and you can actually see it. It's been a long 6 years journey... So many hurdles on the way, so I'm still overwhelmed about this next chapter... Is it really happening Xx how are you getting on? X

SianieShortsโ€ข in reply toArishaC

Enjoy every moment. Each step is a milestone especially when you have been waiting so long!!Craziness beginning to set in for me with another week to go til test day! Symptom checking and googling like mad ๐Ÿ™„ x

Hi SianieShorts i think I may be just one day ahead of you...? I transferred Tuesday 5th Oct. No symptoms at all yet, 4dp6dt. Can't test as have hcg injections for luteal support, right up until 6 days before beta so won't be out my system for a HPT ๐Ÿ˜” Shame, I like to prepare myself mentally before official result. Hope youre getting on ok bbygrl ๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ˜˜ xx

SianieShortsโ€ข in reply toIcsi_Wincy_Spider

Awww fingers crossed for you too! My clinic donโ€™t do betaโ€ฆjust tell you to do a good quality test on a specific date and then if positive, they will scan at 7 weeks. Kind of wish they did a blood test too x

Hey ArishaC , I reckon I'm out. My boobs were really sore last time but not this time round ๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ˜” how about you? My OTD is Saturday xx

ArishaC profile image
ArishaCโ€ข in reply toIcsi_Wincy_Spider

Please don't think that! My boobs were sore last time and I wasn't pregnant! This time around they were hurting like I'm about to start my days but only for a day and then nothing! Have been having stomach crumps all this time... Was sure I'm out! And I got my first hint of a second line (broke down on day 6 and tested), today the line is much stronger, darker... But now it starts with the panic of pregnancy being healthy, lines getting darker, long wait till the first scan... I wish I wouldn't read Google 10 hours a day ๐Ÿ˜‚ crazy me! My beta is Thursday, I can't wait to see what results will it show! I'm keeping everything crossed for you! Let me know how you get on please ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿ‘ถ We haven't told anyone about this transfer, I couldn't deal with people feeling sorry for me again if it wouldn't work. So being able to speak to you all and share it, has been a blessing and I'm so grateful โค๏ธ loads of baby dust your way ๐Ÿ˜š

Omg that's so so exciting! Congratulations, what a result! So happy for you. I'd test but I had Pregnyl (hcg) In Sunday so would likely get a false positive at this stage ๐Ÿ˜” xx

Ah, no triggers for me either (natural ovulation) I just have a bit of luteal support as last time I got my period just 5 days after transfer ๐Ÿ˜” xxx

Hi @ArishaC thank you for not giving up on me (I had given up on myself) - blood test this morning showed I'm pregnant. No sore boobs this time, nothing ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ Taking it day by day though, been here before (Trisomy 15) but hopefully this tested embryo will manage ok. Thanks for your support. Hope you're doing ok and that you have a relaxing weekend - look after and treat yourself after a difficult week xxx ๐Ÿ˜˜

Icsi_Wincy_Spiderโ€ข in reply toSianieShorts

It really is bliss! Enjoy being PUPO.

I wish I hadn't tested - I tried to test out my trigger and must have messed up.... Line appeared to get lighter over the last few days but clinic were certain I'm currently pregnant (390hcg at 11dp6dt). Took them telling me 20 times to make me believe it. The pregnancy test this morning was different again.

I was so convinced it was game over that I drowned my sorrows in 50kgs of chocolate and sweets last night, and consoled myself by buying $130 perfume enroute home from clinic (before they told me the news).

Will be thinking of you tomorrow ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป xx

Oh that's amazing levels! Congratulations โค๏ธNot good news for me, I was indeedPregnant but it was a chemical one, my levels were only 12... I had a feeling something was wrong coz tests were getting darker till day 8 and past that just went lighter and lighter. I'm devasted, to say the least. Seeing a positive strong positive and knowing it hasn't worked is even harder then when it doesn't work.... Xxx

ArishaCโ€ข in reply toIcsi_Wincy_Spider

Thank you sweetheart ๐Ÿ’•๐ŸŒท My tests are all still positive and digital saying 1-2 weeks pregnant.. So I might need to do another bloodtest, but having a level of 12 at 10 days past, needs a miracle to jump to a normal level after. I think I only read one successful story in the whole of Google with such a level ๐Ÿ˜ญ Me and my hubby are going to go for another transfer as soon as possible which is on my first natural cycle. Positive news is that pregnancy after chemical has 17% higher chances in the first 3 months following the chemical ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ‘ถ I'm not loosing hope, even though couple of days ago I was in a bad place I'm feeling more positive and knowing I don't have to wait long for the next cycle. We still have 9 โ„๏ธ all 5 days blastocysts left... So at least I don't have to go through the horrible process and just do the transfer ๐ŸŒท thank you for you support, means the world X

Icsi_Wincy_Spiderโ€ข in reply toArishaC

Woah... where do I start....?! 9 blasts (I only ever got 2 max, per round), 17% chance increase..... these are all really good stats! I have no doubt it's just a matter of time now, whether it's this transfer or the upcoming ones xxxxxxxxx ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ˜˜ xx
