The one time I want my period to start…

[herewego89]

I’m waiting for my cycle to start so we can get this train moving already…. COME ONNNN!!! Let the river flow 😅

[Hopewhite]

All the best of luck! I was like that waiting since Thursday, it finally came today 🥳 , I used to be quite exact before the first ivf treatment but I guess body still readjusting. I’m starting oestrogen tomorrow , is yours an FET or fresh cycle ??

[herewego89 in reply to Hopewhite]

FET, eeek exciting times!! Do you start your meds etc tomorrow? I really hope it all goes smoothly for you!!! I found myself walking laps of my house earlier… i can tell it’s at the back of my mind in everyday life as my dreams include pregnancy… last night I dreamt I gave birth to a boy and then my liver fell out… yup I’m going insane 😅

[Elsidee11 in reply to herewego89]

Oh this just made me and my husband laugh so so much 🤣 ‘and then my liver fell out’ - that’s honestly something I’d dream, fully lost the plot 😅😅 hoping your period comes soon!!!!

[herewego89 in reply to Elsidee11]

100% insane! When I told my hubby this morning his response was “your liver… are you ok?” 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️ glad I’m not the only muppet that has crazy dreams 😅

[Hopewhite in reply to herewego89]

Yes I’ll start tomorrow I’m a bit nervous as this would be first FET (last one was FT), and I’ve never done oestrogen so not sure what surprises that will bring ! Although people have told me is a much gentler experience so fingers crossed 🤞🏼

Oh I fully get you, you’re not alone this process kicks the insane auto pilot on haha , the nurse said to start medicine on second full flow day of period , today I’ve been going insane thinking is this full flow or not 🫠

When are you expecting your period for ?

[herewego89 in reply to Hopewhite]

Ahhh yes full flow… I’m expecting it should have started a week ago 😅 but with PCOS my lady garden has a mind of its own 🤣 I need to re read my protocol as I scribbled it down and I’ve made lists etc but I know when day 1 comes I’ll be flapping to need to get slightly anal and make a planner, maybe get on Amazon and buy some stickers LOL

[Hopewhite in reply to herewego89]

ahh good luck ! , try to relax a little bit and go to bed early, hopefully it will come soon 🤞🏼 that definitely sounds like a good plan whatever helps you to get through it and keep on track , I was going to buy a book to have something to distract my wandering mind 🤞🏼good reminder I don’t even know where my notes are but I’m sure it was 1 tablet x 3 times a day, at least is not the stims or the lovely pessaries yet hahha

[herewego89 in reply to Hopewhite]

Wish I could say I enjoy reading (the last books I read were 50 Shades and before that Harry Potter) not such a patient person, may have to walk the woofters more and make a new playlist! What stage are you at atm

[Hopewhite in reply to herewego89]

Walking was definitely my favourite coping tool during the 2ww last time , it really helped and sounds better if your have your 🐶🐶 , it really helped me to control the anxiety, whenever I felt weird I just went for a walk , you can imagine I spent a lot of time outside!. This will be our 2nd transfer, we had one earlier this year in May, which sadly ended as MMC at viability scan, we have dusted off and bounce back for this hoping we get full luck this time 🤞🏼 Is this your first transfer ? , I hope it all goes perfectly for you, I read FET have higher chances 🤞🏼🤞🏼

[Elsidee11 in reply to herewego89]

I always print my own and stick it on the fridge with those little coloured circle stickers 😅 get hubby to print it off at work lol

[herewego89 in reply to Elsidee11]

The fridge is a fab shout! Who doesn’t love a sticker!!! Something shiny 😎

[WillowPark in reply to herewego89]

FET is much gentler than a full cycle. Best of luck to you all! A little planning tip I heard is to draw boxes of three with a marker on the back of the estrogen tablets when you start, so you don't forget if you have taken them. I'm definitely doing that next time!

[Doodlebug23]

I know that feeling!! Hope AF pays you a visit soon!

[Weegran20]

Always the way ! Good luck 🍀👶

[Brandy888]

Me too. Waiting for mine to appear. Mines FT again as had no embryos suitable to freeze last time. Good luck and baby dust to you ❤️❤️

[Citizenerased83]

I share your pain. I was given provera to induce a bleed as I have pcos and it's now 14 days since I finished the tablets so if it doesn't start today I'll have to go back to the clinic and have a scan. A step I wasn't anticipating as provera always works for me usually. Good luck with your FET cycle!!! X

[HopeNotTooLate46]

I've been waiting 2 weeks for aunt flow but nothing. Had a scan on Friday which looked like I was about to ovulate and it looked like the lining was getting ready. Now the dilemma do I wait for AF or do I help it along with drugs? Chances are I won't get pregnant as hubby has low morphology...but you never know right (hope)

[Emilioh31]

Can I jump onto the crazy band wagon too please! 🤣 meds arrive today and Aunt Flo due tomorrow 😬 4th round (3rd fresh cycle)

Good vibes to everyone x

[olabode]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.

The last time I had a period was on the 4th of August 😭😭😭😭. I'm 44 and perimenopausal.
