November / December 2020 Cycle Buddies

[Katkin]

Hi Dee

Try not to give up hope (I know it’s easier said than done and I was in the pits of despair pre-test so  I’m really not one to talk!). Cramps and spotting at day 6 could well be implantation so could be good signs? It’s such an emotional rollercoaster isn’t it. I was convinced this cycle hadn’t worked as I had such cramps day 4-6 and then awful pain on day 10 whereas the previous cycle I had what I thought were textbook pregnancy symptoms and it was negative! So really I don’t think you can tell too much. Hang in there-I know it’s so difficult not to google the life out of every symptom (or lack of symptoms) but what will be will be. Will keep my fingers firmly crossed for you Xxx

Katy-congrats on the frostie haul. Great news. Hope you’re enjoying a rest now!

AFM-back on the rollercoaster. Bloods again tomorrow to see what the beta levels are doing. One minute I feel cautiously optimistic and the next I’m convinced it’s going to be another miscarriage.

Hope everyone is ok xxx

Hey ladies,
It’s been a wee while! I’ve not read back everyone’s post but I hope everyone is doing ok.

Quick question.... well my cycle has been cancelled - which I’m not overly bothered by, I feel that to proceed this month given the timeframe for Christmas etc, I would have been stressed out!

I didn’t down reg properly or quick enough.... so I’ve stopped down reg meds and now awaiting AF... do any of you girls know when I should expect aF?

I’ve a feeling when it happened 6 years ago, I had to go on tablets to bring AF on... which I’m hoping I don’t need to do this time.

Any help would be appreciated!

Katkin: ty love i will try x i was so hopeful now i am not sure lol x this 2ww is crazy and doesn’t get any easier no matter how many cycles 

Fyfey: how are you? They usually give me progesterone pessaries to do 5 days and then my period would come 5 days later but more of a break through bleed x

Hello, is everyone ok?

Fyfey - I took my last cyclogest pessary on Sunday and AF arrived on Wednesday, so about 3 days although I did think that was quite quick. It’s been anything up to a week in the past.x

Katkin - how are you? Any updates from your bloods? Hope you’re ok x

Dee - How are you feeling? When’s your otd? X

Afm Withdrawl bleed came this week after finishing the pessaries. It was soo heavy and painful 😖 All over now thankfully. Spoke to the clinic and I’m starting a natural cycle with my next period - eeek. So transfer is likely to be mid-January. V exciting 😁 xx

Hi everyone

Katy-that’s exciting, I’m sure time will fly by and it will be Jan in no time. First period after all the drugs is shears so awful isn’t it!!

Fyfey- sorry to hear your cycle was cancelled . Afraid I’ve only ever done short protocols so no down reg experience. Hope next cycle goes more smoothly and you get a nice break from the meds over Christmas.

Dee-hope you’re hanging in there. Good luck for OTD.

As for me, betas were ok. Cramps have now gone so have give from convincing myself they were abnormal to wishing they were back so I knew something was still happening in there!! Always something to find to worry about. No symptoms at the moment. Having a scan in ten days so I guess that will reveal all so trying to just take it one day at a time until then.

Sending everyone lots of love, hope you are having restful weekends x

I held off posting as things were a bit uncertain with UK travel restrictions, but I'm going for my FET tomorrow in my clinic in Prague.  My flight is just about to take off and I've got one night in a hotel then coming back tomorrow evening, all being well. Fingers crossed everything goes well, my lining was 10.2 at the scan which is similar to our last cycle. 

Dee, those are similar symptoms to my successful cycle, hang in there!

Mmc: thanks lovely but i know its a bfn x im ok tho honestly xx  ooh exciting for u xx

Afm: well looks like this cycle is a bfn 😭😭😭. I tested with first response and clear blue digi and both negative this morning and considering my otd is in two days then i know ot won’t change. I am already 12dp5dt so i kmow the result x i am absolutely gutted because i was convinced it was going to work x

We have no embies left but we are going to do another fresh cycle. However the last two cycles the nurse has said she can see fluid in my womb. So before we go again I am wanting that investigated. Fed up of the constant disappointment x
