Anyone else on their TWW?

[Ladybird_36]

Hello lovelies, just wondering if anyone else is on their TWW.

Thank you Janet, definitely going on those evening walks and taking all the medicine! Need to do a little better with the water intake but have everything crossed for next week. Take care too

[Brie889]

I’m in the 2WW currently 8days post transfer. Good luck, 4th time lucky for us hopefully ❤️🤞🏻xx

[Ladybird_36 in reply to Brie889]

Good luck to you too Brie889 , I hope you get the bestest news! ❤️🤞🏽 xx

[MiniCeeCee]

I’m in TWW too, 4th transfer, 7 days past 6 day transfer. Due to test on Thursday, but I’ve got a big day at work on Thursday and don’t think I’ll be in the best frame of mind if it’s negative, so going to push test to Friday instead I think (I’ve got the day off work on Friday thankfully). Slowly losing hope this week 🙈 feeling very similar to the last 3 transfers that failed so struggling to stay positive! Rooting for us all though!

[Ladybird_36 in reply to MiniCeeCee]

Hey MiniCeeCee I feel like we were on our TWW together last time too, but I could be wrong. Sending you so much luck and positivity, it’s a good thing you’re keeping busy though and can take the test on Friday when you don’t have to think about work! I’m falling into the same place, had lots of pulling and cramping and now everything seems to have stopped so I’m preparing for rubbish news but hoping for better. Good luck to you! 🤍

[MiniCeeCee in reply to Ladybird_36]

Ah yes we were, best of luck this time to you too - it’s a long old slog isn’t it?! Is this your third transfer? Hope you’re holding up ok x

[Ladybird_36 in reply to MiniCeeCee]

Hey MiniCeeCee , it is indeed my 3rd try, the last two were embryo's collected from my first cycle, this one's a new embryo so hoping it'll be ok, had a massive wobble yesterday cause I can't feel any cramping or anything anymore, just trying to stay positive bit of a way to go! Good luck for Friday I hope we get a big positive! x

[MiniCeeCee in reply to Ladybird_36]

Thanks Ladybird_36 I ended up testing today (my OTD) and sadly it wasn’t meant to be again this time - this process is ruthless and feeling a bit lost today. But need to refind my energy over coming days and just keep going again. So hope it works out for you this time xxx

[Ladybird_36 in reply to MiniCeeCee]

Sending you a hug and as much positivity as I can muster MiniCeeCee , you will find that energy but be kind to yourself and take as much time as you need! This whole process is so unfair and just seems like luck of the draw, every time you try and be hopeful it gets taken from you, I truly understand. If you ever want to chat/rant just pop me a message! Xxx

[MiniCeeCee in reply to Ladybird_36]

Really appreciate your kind words, means a lot today xxx

[Dragonfly1111]

Hi All, I am also in my 2WW 😬 and had my transfer last Monday. I had some brown spotting yesterday, some pink spotting this evening and had cramps on/off. Has anyone else experienced this? Petrified to test at the end of the week. Best of luck to everyone 🤞 x

[Ladybird_36 in reply to Dragonfly1111]

Hi Dragonfly1111 oo you’re nearly there! I’ve definitely had cramps on/off but no spotting, that might be great news though so hang in there till the end of the week! Sending you so much luck x

[Kitkat10]

good luck 🍀 xx

[Ladybird_36 in reply to Kitkat10]

Thank you Kitkat10 ☺️ xx

[Pugs079]

Good luck to all you ladies! I remember how nervous I was every day till test day. Even though I was tempted to take an early pregnancy test, I waited till test day test.

I watched as many romcoms and comedies as I could to distract myself when I wasn’t working, napping or cooking.

Fingers crossed you all get a BFP xx

[Ladybird_36 in reply to Pugs079]

Thank you so much Pugs079 , I've been watching some of my childhood classics to take the stress away, have tested early before so told myself we will not be doing that this time, everything crossed it's a BFP xx

[Hidden]

Hi All,

I’m currently 8dp6dt and driving myself insane symptom spotting. I had cramps and some brown spotting 6dp and the clinic increased my cyclogest and have been okay since.

This is our 4th transfer in 8years. All our other 3 transfers worked but all ended in miscarriages, they then investigated this and found I have a pituitary tumour, which was causing hormone imbalances. We had treatment for this then went back to the clinic as had 4 frozen good grade blasts but on first scan they found 20cm tumour in my right ovary and 10cm on left ovary, so ended up having open surgery for this as they suspected ovarian cancer, I was very lucky and it was borderline but I did lose my ovary’s. But still have my womb, so here we are now 4th time lucky and very grateful that we have these frozen embryos from when I was younger.

Sorry I’ve just blurted our story lol 🤦🏻‍♀️

Truly wishing you all the best of luck 😊

[Ladybird_36 in reply to Hidden]

Hi Hidden , thank you so much for sharing your story, you are incredibly brave and what a journey you've been on! Sending you so much positive energy and luck, let's hope we both get our BFP 😊

[Sozko]

Currently in my TWW with our 3rd transfer too 🫣 trying to go about life and not obsess like the previous transfers xx

[Ladybird_36 in reply to Sozko]

I have been trying my hardest to carry on as normal this time too Sozko , had a little wobble yesterday was feeling overly emotional, but here's hoping it subsides and gets better! Good luck xx

[Sozko in reply to Ladybird_36]

Awww hugs. We all want it so bad, but I don’t want to spend the next two weeks interpreting every sign that lead to nothing previously. Trying to think “what is meant to be will be”…definitely easier said than done. Here if you need to chat/vent xx.

[Ladybird_36 in reply to Sozko]

Thank you, could definitely do with the hug! You're completely right, it is the best way to be, my mum has this saying that whatever is meant for you will always find you (vice versa), so going to trust that and try not to get too lost in my mind! Thank you for reminding me of it! xx

[Sozko in reply to Ladybird_36]

❤️❤️❤️ praying we all get the BFP we’re hoping for xx

[Amywoz84]

Hello! I am on 2ww! good luck! I’m on day 8 post transfer - no symptoms but trying not to symptom spot. I’ve taken predisolone this cycle (FET) with lubion and clexane. Plus baby aspirin.

Hope we get our BFPs!

[Ladybird_36 in reply to Amywoz84]

Hello Amywoz84 good luck to you too! I am now day 6 post transfer if we don't count embryo transfer (7 if you do) - I had cramping early on but nothing since, trying to not symptom spot either because everyone is so different! I'm on cyclogest 3 times a day, estradiol and Lubion injections! I really hope we do get that BFP!

[Amywoz84 in reply to Ladybird_36]

How did it all go???

[Avocadolover1]

I am! Had my first frozen transfer yesterday….£

How are you getting on?

[Ladybird_36 in reply to Avocadolover1]

How exciting Avocadolover1 , I think I just saw your transfer story pop up on the health unlocked page, please don't worry I always think it's going to be magical and then it really isn't, all I need to do is pee. Also you definitely do not need to lie down, my hospital in London gets me up straightaway too and lets me go to the bathroom. This time I had drunk a bit too much water so was on the uncomfier side!

[Avocadolover1 in reply to Ladybird_36]

Thank you so much

I’m trying not to worry too much of it all. I just need to stay positive now. Yes I think I drank a bit too much water too as they’ve said that’s the fullest bladder they’ve ever seen, so you can imagine the pain that I was in! It was AWFUL! Thank you so much for sharing your experience x

[H4PP1]

good luck everyone !

[Ladybird_36 in reply to H4PP1]

Thank you H4PP1 !

[TexasRose210]

day 10, my faith is on high mode. I’m praying for strong betas

[Ladybird_36 in reply to TexasRose210]

Great way to be! Hope you and I both get that BFP TexasRose210

[Someday_Bluesky]

Hello, yes me too. 8dp5dt after a FET last Tuesday (5th). Hope everyone is coping OK, work is usually a good distraction for me but definitely finding my mind wondering more as I get closer to test day. Good luck everyone!

[Ladybird_36 in reply to Someday_Bluesky]

Hello Someday_Bluesky , you had your transfer a few days before me! Oh I had a big wobble yesterday and let my mind wander to a negative place, so went to sleep and watched some childhood movies as a distraction and just pushing on till next week! Good luck to you too!

[Sarah770]

hello everyone,

I had my transfer done Tuesday 5 Nov. On day 4 after transfer I had a period pain for a day, the following day I had « electricity cramps » in my uterus and yesterday day 9 after transfer I starting having pain in my breast, which I never have even on high doses of progesterone or on my period. Since the electricity cramps I thought it had worked. It is the first time my boobs react that fast. I had a +wiwi test, confirmed this morning. Will go for blood test today. This is my fourth pregnancy and third by IVF.

On my first transfer I was very worried generally and had a feeling that something was wrong. The beta indicated that probably just one embryos had stayed and it proved correct. I had a boy.

My second transfer was done by mistake outside of my window so I did not stand any chances. I did not know that when I did the transfer but I had the deep feeling that it would be negative since the transfer itself.

My third transfer went normal and I immediately had a feeling that it had worked. My tummy was messed up when I got back to my hotel room. I was told after transfer that my embryo was not great (the clinic said 3BC and the doctor who did my endometrium prep said 3CC) but I had a gut feeling that it would work. I had a boy.

My fourth transfer went a bit south. A first embryo did not survive, we de froze another one. This embryo was a 1BB. They suggested to de freeze another one but we decided against it. I had forgotten not to insert my cyclogest so the doctor had to clean my cervix with a full bladder. It was last month. I had period pain from day 6 onwards, that did not stop that made me think that it probably had not worked as the pain would not go away. Negative beta.

My fifth transfer is the one I described above.

Go ladies! Wishing all of you to get great news! Studies show that the best way to get there is to repeat the cycles !

Love,

Sarah

[Foxylady85]

Hi, I am! Transfer was on Monday 4 November so test day is Monday 18 November 😬 Had dull cramping on and off, really bad migraine in the first week and occasionally sore boobs but I get these symptoms in the lead up to my periods. However, the symptoms have stopped the last few days. The utrogestan pessaries have made me feel bloated since having them too! Nervous for Monday 🤞

[Endofitall]

wishing you lots of luck x

[Sozko]

any updates ladies? I have my BETA today ✨

[Foxylady85 in reply to Sozko]

BFN for me! Onto the next round in the new year 😞🤞

[Endofitall in reply to Foxylady85]

Sorry to hear this 💔I hope you’re okay as can be and take time to look after yourself ❤️

[Sozko in reply to Foxylady85]

Ugh. I’m so sorry. Praying next round is yours ✨
