First FET advice

Swallow90 profile image
8 Replies

I had my first FET ON 13th Sept. Clinic advised I do a home test today (24th), not quite a two week.

test said negative, should I take this as gold or retest in a few days?

Feel really deflated, but want to keep up the positive mindset if there could be a chance? Any advise would be appreciated :)

Hi Swallow90, I’d test again in a few days if it wA me. Honestly though, if the clinic told you to test today, it’s probably unlikely to change. In my experience I’ve found that when it comes to FETs and IVF, some bodies need the first round to work out what to do (mine did). So, even if this one isn’t your BFP, next time could well be it x x

hi lovely I’m so sorry it was negative 😢 I’ve never had a test change after 8dpt so by 11dpt (which I think your test was on) I would take that as the result this time I’m afraid. My clinic do say that if you haven’t bled yet then to test again in a few days just to be sure so they must have had an exception at one point and had a test change but I’ve never seen it happen by your stage I’m afraid. I’m so so sorry, be kind to yourself and I hope you have lots of support around you 💜 xx
