Hey all

Ikle - yes, that’s right. Gosh, time flies by, doesn’t it! I hope your beta went well today.

FM - clearblue digital 2-3 weeks is amazing news. I don’t think they’re very sensitive so to see 2-3 weeks on it must mean high beta but I can imagine you’re really nervous. The rollercoaster of sub fertility is incredibly hard and it doesn’t let you relax but I’m crossing everything that it will be good news for you. Xxx

MiaCat - thanks for the link, I’ve never heard of her either, not sure I’ll be able to watch so hopefully it will be available to view later.

Goldrush - I know it feels ages away but next Tuesday will be here in no time.

Sorry if I missed anyone, it’s really hard to keep up on the phone.

Afm - I had my baseline scan today and the consultant saw about 4 follicles which isn’t great but given my history and my horrendous amh level it was to be expected. And we only need one golden embryo  (but it’s always nice to have back up in the freezer )
My next scan is on Thursday.

Hi FM, I’m seven weeks and had an internal scan with my consultant. He showed me the heartbeat and the sack xx

Hi Pritamin, here's the replay from last night: https://us02web.zoom.us/rec/play/2ByRx5IEAAFDVnI-jWEpnDzffpkb5RbCuNFyiLvosuFJJ1wdboyL0NCqlLsGnOtf7lLumOQDZzpJa1tT.TYKo4EN36fAKPWQe?startTime=1602529219000&_x_zm_rtaid=EiCVKz4dQ76MCaE8qI1CqA.1602587481529.cbad2da2fcff60b2e771064e309b364f&_x_zm_rhtaid=106

It was nice and she's clearly lovely, but I didn't get much out of it that I haven't already been through with my CBT therapist. I was talking to my sister in law afterwards (who is a a psychotherapist - specialising in child bereavement - and also TTC). We were thinking about how many female lifecoaches/trainers/gurus there are out there, usually on instagram. it's good that they are sharing everything that they've learned (and making a business out of it), because it is useful to lots of people, but ideally, people who are looking for help would go to a trained counsellor or therapist. Just an observation really.

Hope everyone is feeling positive and hopeful and well this morning. Sending love to all xx

Hi Ladies,

I'm feeling very deflated and sad today, my beta and progesterone results came back and although my beta hcg is doubling beautifully and high at 2236 at 14dp5dt which is higher than my son my progesterone dropped in 4 days from 93 nmol/L to 30nmol/L which is an indication the pregnancy is failing.  I just don't understand I'm in such high doses of cyclogest taking 400 twice a day and Lubion injections. I literally hate my body today for being so useless.  So now we go into the cycle of doon of retests and my viability scan will be next week to pick up what's going on due to my history of septic miscarriage.

I'm so deflated and sick of this whole thing, spent most of yesterday googling for different studies into progesterone support with no real belief anything will work.  I just don't get it,  why would it suddenly drop with the hcg so high and doubling well, why can't i just get pregnant and just keep it like eveyone else! It's so bloody unfair.

Sorry no personals today guys

Hugs, ikle x

Ikles - thinking of you. Lots of hugs, it’s really hard but hang in there x

[Goldrush]

Ickle sorry to read your post and your news. Sending you lots of love and keeping you in my thoughts. It is not fair that every step has to be a struggle. Look after yourself 💗

Fm - good luck for tomorrow 💗

Ickle, I’m so sorry to read your post. It’s such a stressful horrible journey. Sending you lots of love and thinking of you.

FM - good luck for tomorrow! Keeping everything crossed for you.

Nothing really to report from here. Taking my Buserelin - not enjoying the headaches and the hot sweats at night. Wishing my next bleed would hurry up and spending every moment trying to work out/second guess when everything is going to happen. It’s my 40th at the end of the month, I have a birthday meal (with wine pairing) booked later month and I keep trying to work out when my transfer will be, when my test day will be etc! I need to just step back and relax! None of it matters and if I don’t get my wine pairing I’ll just tell my friend I’m on antibiotics 😬

I hope everyone else is ok. I’ll slowly pick up where you’re all at with this process. Sending lots of positive vibes to everyone. Xx
