March transfers

[Wannabeicsimum]

Hi all,

Anybody having a march transfer.

I'm in tomorrow for FET.

Would be nice to have other people in the same position.

Hi,
So lovely to see your name pop up! How are you? Did everything work out for you in 2023?

I’m a bit ahead of you this time around and am on day 5 of tww. There hasn’t been anyone else on here transferring in Feb.

Hiya hun,

We have been through this a few times together over the years. I'm hoping you have a little bundle of joy? I was successful with my beautiful baby girl. I had a MC from my last frozen in Nov 24 so this is my last frosty. I've been at this for 10 years, and this is my 15th transfere. I'm drawing the line now.

I'm so hoping it work as having So many mc/failed treatments I feel so cheated on completing my family.

How are you? Are you feeling positive? Tested early? I'm so bad at testing early. Xx

I was very lucky with my fresh transfer in 2020 and have my little boy but haven’t had success since. I had a mmc from our Nov 22 round and then a chemical pregnancy June 23 and another miscarriage in Dec 23. I have had some testing and been taking some medication so hopefully the problem has been identified and fixed. We shall see.
I’m terrible at testing early too. I did have a positive this morning. I’m trying to be positive but also not getting too excited.
Congratulations on your little girl. I’m so pleased that worked out for you. Sorry to hear about your miscarriage. I have my fingers crossed for you this time. What day do you think you will test? xx

[Wannabeicsimum]

I'm sorry to hear that it didn't work out. It's so hard this journey.

That's amazing you tested positive. How many days is that? What meds are you on. I've got a good load of them too. Inhixia, predisalone and lubion plus the other ones that everybody is on.

I will test from day 5 (this sat). I'm so bad for it xx

[Applecart]

Thank you. It was day 7. I’m on inhixa and lubion too. Inhixa stings doesn’t it!

How you feeling today? xx

[Applecart]

I can’t cope with not testing. It actually gets me more stressed not knowing so I totally get it. I wish I was someone who would rather just live in a pupo bubble but I’m not

[Wannabeicsimum]

Day 7 is very positive I think.

My problem is keeping the baby going. I implant but my NC cells take over and end up MC.

Yes they really sting. I have to have them throughout pregnancy too so they end up in my leg when my tummy got too big to pinch.

I'm so bad I test from day 5 and keep testing for the darker lines. It sets me up tbh as it's usually week 7 just before scan I loose the baby. Its like you think you have hit jack pot then it's taken away from you.

I keep testing too. I had a chemical with my second FET and the test was negative my test day.

I am similar to you with all my transfers starting off ok but not getting past 8ish weeks. I had some testing with Dr Brosens at his implantation clinic in Coventry and he found that I was severely lacking in stem cells needed to maintain the pregnancy. I have been on medication for it for 12 weeks before this transfer. My NK cells and other tests were normal though. Just hoping that the medication has grown the stem cells enough to get to 12 weeks.

Not nice having inhixa throughout but worth it if it works x

I’m trying to get 2 Hcg blood tests to check that the levels are going up enough but my clinic said they won’t do it until a week on Monday, my gp can offer me one on 2nd April and my local EPAU only offer scans at 6 weeks not the blood tests. Last time when I was convinced I was having another miscarriage and couldn’t get tested I ended up buying 2 from an online company so I might just have to do the same but won’t be able to test till Monday now and it takes 3-4 days to get the results so still won’t know what’s going on until end of next week/beginning of the next. It’s just more money too going to try and persuade the clinic to test me next week

[Wannabeicsimum]

Well it's all sounds positive with the new drugs. Fingers crossed for you. My bloods were sp high i had to go back every 2 days to make sure my levels were going down with the MC it was awful. The scan shows there was a pregancy but my levels keep growing. It's like my body excepts it and then gets confused.

I just keep at them. Worst they can say is no. You never know unless you ask. Good luck with that too

[Applecart]

Oh that’s horrible part of it isn’t it. We were back and forth to the hospital so many times hoping my levels would be decreasing. With the last one, they were questioning if it might be ectopic for a while too which wasn’t a nice wait. Yes I will try tomorrow and see what they say. If not I will be ordered them online xxx

[Wannabeicsimum]

Yes this was it exactly. I couldn't understand why they were saying it when they could see the remains of the pregnacy on the scan. It was really distressing.

Fingers crossed and let me know how you get on. Thinking of you

[Applecart]

Been thinking of you! My fingers are crossed for a positive for you today xx

[Wannabeicsimum]

Hi, i think we have mixed messaged. I'm only on day 4.
How are you getting on?

[Applecart]

Oh sorry I thought you were testing from today and it was day 5 xx

[Wannabeicsimum]

Negative day 5. Last times I've seen a faint line. Not getting it make me negative today but no faint line tomorrow then I think it's game over.

How are you. When is your OTD

Xx

[Applecart]

I have read lots of posts in different places who haven’t seen a line till after day 5 but yes it would have been reassuring for you wouldn’t it. I will keep my fingers crossed for tomorrow.

I’m ok thanks. Coping better with the waiting than before we got the positive but still finding it hard not to think about the last 3 times when it started off well too. Official test date is Thursday. I have been cheap strip tests every day and line is progressing so hopefully all be ok for Thursday.

I have managed to get a Hcg blood test at the hospital on Tuesday through my GP and then I have found an at home kit which says you can have your results within one day of receiving them so I am going to order one of those to use on the Thursday. Then my clinic said I could have tests on the following Monday and Wednesday so then I should have 4 results which will give me an idea of whether the pregnancy is developing well or not. After the last few times there is no way I can wait until the scan xxx

[Wannabeicsimum]

Good luck for tomorrow. Have everything crossed for you.

Day 6/7/8 all negative so it's game over again. Cramping today so it's just convinced me even more. Can't believe my last shot at this and it's over

[Wannabeicsimum]

Apple, how have you got on. Been thinking about you xxx

[Applecart]

So sorry to read about your negatives. I was hoping so much it would work out for you.

We got our official positive today thank you and found out that the beta was 800 at 13dp5dt. Annoyingly we can’t do another one now until Monday so it will be a long wait till Tues to find out how things are going. I had ordered an at home blood kit to do today but delivery is delayed and won’t be here till tomorrow.

I have got a stomach bug as well and been really unwell since 2am. Really could have done without that x
