Hi ladies, I hope you all had a fantastic week end.

@LizaGrobler, Yeah we have a few embabies frozen. My OTD is tomorrow 25 July at 8 am sharp. Shuu :unsure: :dry: I am so nervous. My body has been playing tricks on me or maybe it's just in my head, I am severely constipated, mild cramps, itchy nipples, constantly thirsty and an appetite for years :huh: . I have been so tempted to cheat (HPT) but DH refuses :cry: , I guess its just one more sleep then we'll ALL know. All the best for Friday

@Angela39 Af is 2 days late, truly hoping that this is it. Having similar symptoms as for AF but I usually don't have an appetite and hardly ever constipated. As for your symptoms, hmm one way street to pregnancy. All the best...

@Salemein, all the best. Can't wait until we all get our BFP

Baby dust to all you ladies

So my post might be a bit TMI :tmi:

So we only did the BD 2 times instead of the 4 times. I just get to swollen and sore if its so many times so close together.

We did the BD on Saturday evening and Sunday midday about.

My CM still did not look right by Saturday although it did start to pick up a bit. I got Pre-seed on Friday and I'm glad I did because of how uncomfortable it started to get and hopefully it helps the swimmers.

I think maybe we should try one last time tonight, we did the shot yesterday at about 9 so after work might still be fine?

So TWW for us now. AF should come around the 4th and if she doesn't I will test on about the 8th. I'm to scared to test early because I don't want a false positive because of the trigger shot.

I also completely forgot to take my estrofem yesterday which was the last one. I hope that it isn't a big deal.

Anyway how are the rest doing?


@lisa, very exited for you :)

Hi ladies

@LizaGrobler super excited for you all will go well!

@Mommiez and @ Megs I agree with @LizaGrobler this is such a touch journey for each and everyone of the ladies on this group but always remember that God planned that perfect bundle of joy at the right time for each of us.

@Salemein good luck with the weekends events

@Nicola how are you feeling?

@TipeeTwo when is af due?

Afm - 9dpo and super angst about testing af will only due around wednesday I wake up everyday with a blocked nose and sore throat almost like if I have a cold have mild headache and very mild waves of food aversions and nausea boobs sore but not yet like last month and the I have these terrible sharp pains and dull heavy feeling in lower abdomen and bloated and backache since 6-7dpo. I don't want to read into it as I will rather wait and see what happens but it is difficult!

Hope you all are doing well.

@ Nicola we also TTC for about 2years after my MC and after not conceiving we were convinced by family to do some testing. So glad we did as we have more clarity on our way forward.

@ TipeeTwo good luck with the TTW. I know it can drive one insane! When are you going for your beta? If i may ask did you freeze any embabies?

@ Mommiez & Megs this journey is really hard and unfair. I sometimes don't know were we get the strength from to do it over and over every month. xx

AFM - Had my second appointment on Tuesday where my lining was 5.4cm. Had another scan this morning and were on 7.2cm already. Last scan on Sunday morning. As i understand the lining needs to be on 8cm and then i start progesterone for 5 days. On day 5 we will do the FET. If i count that would be next week Friday. Very excited and scared all at the same time!

Hi Ladies, I hope you all had a terrific day, trying to keep busy and optimistic.


ooh and thank you for the fantastic welcome :heart:

I had 2 natural conceptions prior to the IVF and because they ended up in miscarriages our GYN suspected that it might be due to genetic abnormalities hence IVF route. I know I would not have been able to handle history repeating itself, especially because we go through such an emotional rollercoaster after a loss. But we soldier on always, I guess that's how we women are made.

@NicolaF You have to be mental, physically, financially and emotionally ready for this route, OH WOW I was not expecting it to be this heavy! You know that there's a 50/50 chance and you remain hopeful that it will work out your way. Please research as much as possible and the BEST OF LUCK. :woohoo:

oh @Salemein , exciting weekend ahead hehe :tmi: :blush:

Baby dust to you ladies and enjoy the rest of your day

Love T
