Just wondering what I should expect at my scan tomorrow and if your lining wasn’t ready yet when did you have to go back to scan again?

Hope scan goes ok tomorrow They will be looking for a thickness above 7-8 if not thick enough they should scan you again in a couple of days Ask the clinic to explain it all to you at the scan

Take care

I think everyone is different and it depends when you ovulate. Ive had a couple of natural FET, each on different. I’ve usually had a baseline, then back on day 10, usually back 2-3 days later x

It was awful that was a medicated cycle and I just wasn’t responding to the medication and bleeding. All good today though lining 6.2 and follicle 13 so another scan Friday and potentially trigger then if lining good and not had a surge. Hope you got on ok xx

So sorry you went through that. I'm so glad you got on better today and fingers crossed for Friday.

All OK today. Embryo transfer booked for next Weds. They've done a precautionary blood test to check progesterone levels but expect it to be low and so then can go ahead. Not feeling very well after the blood test though and waiting for a prescription before I can go home.

Let me know how Friday goes xx

Hi lovely what happened with your blood test were the levels ok? My transfer is next Monday x

Hi, we're all set to go ahead. Transfer is tomorrow. Heading into the clinic today for another progesterone blood test, this time to make sure levels are good before the transfer. I'm so scared our transfer won't work or will end in heartbreak again.

Great news that yours can go ahead. Fingers crossed for you. Xx

Ah best of luck. Try to be positive but I know it’s hard, Ive been having panic attacks because I’m petrified of my only embryo going in and not working xxx

Hi there. I'm currently doing an unmedicated FET too. My cycles tend to be 31 days if I have one (PCOS) so I don't ovulate until about day 18 so mine takes a bit longer to thicken. On day 9 my lining was a 4.1 but as you get closer to ovulation your lining should thicken on day 11 it was a 5.4 and on day 14 it was a 7.5 I think she said and each time my follicle for ovulation got bigger and bigger. I'm back again this morning for another scan and today will be day 16 and I can feel ovulation is right around the corner as my ovary is aching 😆 My Nurse told me not to worry about day 9 as my cycles are a bit longer and she was right as everything seems to be going smoothly. She also said if after I've ovulated and they're not happy with my lining I could take some estrogen. So there are options even if it's not quite thick enough. Xx

My cycles are 26 days usually ovulation on day 14. I didn’t respond to oestrogen last time so I don’t think that would work for me if I don’t get there on my own. Good luck with your scan today x
