FET cycle buddies?
Hiya ladies! Anyone else prepping for a FET? It's my first and I'm hoping for Feb 1st transfer of one of my two PGS-tested embies. Sooooo exciting!

2ww is such a nightmare, the second week was worst for me, I felt so miserable the night before i tested. I tested 2 days early and got my bfp. I was so convinced I'd hold out right to the end but misery made me test early! Obviously very hormonal. 2ww is the most stressful thing ever x
TWW is tough!!! I was extremely nauseated this morning when I was too busy to eat breakfast. I was dry heaving until I got some bread and I still feel awful. I'm trying to tell myself it's just the estrogen and progesterone bc I don't want to get my hopes up too much yet. Ok only 4 days out.
Good luck kiki!
DH was mad at me today as I didn't tell him I tested (5dp). I was in a miserable state all morning and he just thought I was being hormonal. Then I told him and he laughed at me for being so silly as to test on day 5, which cheered me up. And he was mad at me for not giving him the opportunity to laugh at me this morning and cheer me up earlier.
Love my DH ❤. Hate the 2WW ?.
Wishing the best for you both @lizgirlie and @marietwins! The exact same thing happened to me, but they froze my last 2 together as a pair. They had to thaw then both even though we were only transferring 1,but yah one didn't look so good after so we did both. It seems so final...which is hard.but so grateful we have our twin boys. So anxious to a what happens. Beta tomorrow!
I am very blessed to have had so much success already. Already have 3 gorgeous children and I've given my last two embryos a chance at life. What a miracle!
But it is such a roller coaster of emotion. And it's impossible not to be obsessive! I'd been obsessing about whether or not to transfer both at the same time for ever and it was all out of my hands in the end. So I'm trying to trust in the higher powers!
I'll be watching for your success, Lizgirlie. I have such high hopes for you!!!!
Marietwins omg I'm soooooo sorry it happened to you too and soooooo glad we are here for each other! Sorry I only just read your post I've been trying not to obsess lol. After reflection, we are happy we have them both inside me, excited and hopeful they both stick, desperate for one to stick and sad to have no frosties for a 1st or 2nd child later.
Excited & hopeful + desperate + sad = IVF life
I still have to live with the possibility that I will die a barren old lady, but you have to live with the possibility of 5 under 5s lol.
I'm ignoring any and all symptoms as I have such high hormone levels from the patches and pessaries. Might test early on 6dp, beta on 12dp and will take both of those results as a possible indicator of how many stuck, but will not really know until sac scan, and will not know how many survive until October 20th HEDD lol!
Good luck for your two xx My two are sending your two loads of inter-frosty baby dust and lots of sticky vibes xx
@lizgirlie I just had the exact same thing happen to me. My transfer was yesterday and when we arrived we found out that the first didn't survive well. And that they were thawing the second. We waited around for hours and the implanted both. I don't know how I feel. They were my last two! And I've had twins before on my fresh cycle so I'm nervous that it could be twins again. But I'm honestly hoping that whatever happens, this worked and I get at least one healthy baby. My beta is on the 14th and I'm not sure how long until we see how many stuck!? In a way I'm glad I've got a sister in arms :) and that we are doing this together!!
Ladies y'all brought a (hormonal) tear to my eye. Thank you soooo much for being here with me. It means a lot xx ❤
Me, my pineapple and my one-and-a-bit embies are all strapped safely into the same seat on the plane ? We're a-coming home!
Sticky baby dust to you Liz! You're too funny trying not to have sex with random Spaniards and stealing knives! I (sort of) know your pain as I did my fresh and frozen transfers in another state without my hubby (I couldn't imagine a foreign country though!) - I did think it would be funny to tell my children "your dad wasn't even in the same state when I got pregnant with you!"
Flying home tomorrow with my 3 fifths of pineapple in my hand luggage and 2 embies in my tummy xx
I nearly got caught with the pineapple knife as I'd stolen one from a nearby table then hid it on my lap but it fell off onto the tiled floor and the waiter came running to replace it and I had to pretend I'd been eating my soup with it and he went to the table next door but I'd already stolen the one he went for lol ? Headline stuff! "Crazy hormonal woman ignores flirting men to steal knives from Spanish hotel."
Thank you all sooo much! "200% PUPO" I like it Petunia! I'm devastated to have lost my chance of a 2nd transfer, but am feeling a bit better now. I asked the Dr what I could do to help them implant. He said "Be yourself! Don't eat any special food... have a glass of wine... have sex...!" I laughed out loud, ran out to buy a pineapple, then sat in the hotel bar with a bowl of warm soup, trying valiantly to avoid having sex with any random Spanish men and wondering how to steal a knife to chop my pineapple up into 5 pieces lol xx
I am sorry that you are all alone there.... that truly sucks and must be hard at a time of stress. But liz..... please stay positive. All is not lost. People get bfp all the time out of the less than perfect fet. You have gone through so much to get here...
It's just another test for you.... a right crappy one and will yest your metal but have faith. You may end up with the 2 kids you want in one go!!! Thinking of you. Try and stay positive. Hopefully by now you have your 2 little embabies snuggled up and on board. Stay positive and calm.... deal with whatever happens as and when but for bow sweetheart..... your are 200% pupo. Loves and hugs. Xxxx????? u got this xxx
Hey Ladies I did my FET yesterday!!! I'm pretty sure I felt them implant and got a little spot of pink an hour later. These are my last embryos and my last one I put back in September I lost her in October. So I'm praying to the lord that these two babies stay with me. I'm praying I end with twins. I have one beautiful living child who is 3 so he'll be four when these two arrive. All three of their birthdays will be around the same time.
Anyone wanna befriend me with the same time having a FET. This next week and two days will be the hardest lol!
Heartbroken ?. I'm on the subway heading to the clinic and I just got the call that my embie didn't survive the thaw very well so they're going to put both in, and hope that one sticks. There is so much riding on this one transfer now that I'm terrified and bawling my eyes out alone in Spain.
Congratulations efhand! I've only got 24h to go then I'll be right there with you ???
Wow I'm on the edge of my seat reading all these dates and updates! My ERA test came back great so my transfer is confirmed on Feb 1st. I'll be PUPO in less than 48h... Eeeeeek!
I'm soooo glad not to be alone in all this. Keep the updates coming, ladies! Xx
Yeah! It's such a tough choice. I have twins that will be 4 next month. Plus a little surprise, natural baby that's 17 months. So I'm in no hurry to have 5 kids under the age of 5. You're very brave to be willing to have twins again and so close to your first set. I think I just decided that I wanted to spread it out and enjoy it instead of potentially stressing myself out with so many young children. But I'm not looking forward to doing this again that's for sure.
And now it's a day closer! I think my crazy hormones finally started to calm down a bit today, but I'll know for sure tomorrow. It's quite worrying how much I am convinced this is going to work. It will be a year since I last conceived, and I lost that one at 9w. Since then it seems my whole life has been focused on TTC. Is it your first or do you have children?
Feb 3! I've been in estrogen for about a week and Lupron for 2. Progesterone starts next week and then transfer soon after. Can't believe it's less than 2 weeks to transfer! I haven't been crabby but I have been pretty anxious. Still trying to decide on one or two frosties but I think we've settled on just doing one.
Hi erica how exciting ? just think we could both be on our journey to motherhood really soon! I have 8 days of estrogen and 5 of progesterone before my transfer. What's your protocol? I'm so hormonal and shouting at everyone since my mock cycle last month and I don't know why... Perhaps coz I suddenly stopped taking both on Monday. I hope it all calms down soon with either the estrogen or progesterone. Good luck to us both xx
Hiya! I did my ERA and the results will be another week or so. I'm pushing ahead anyway so I don't lose this cycle, and if the results are good then I'll transfer on progesterone day 5, and if they are not then we'll do another ERA on progesterone day 6 and repeat... I decided that it was better to be optimistic!
Much calmer today - I survived the day without testing ?. Tomorrow (7dp) I plan to use a pharmacy-own brand test of unknown sensitivity, so expecting a BFN.
Progesterone and estrogen have got soooo many symptoms to answer for that symptom-spotting is totally pointless lol. I'm actually quite thankful about this!
Welcome @Potentials! Implantation hugs to us all xx
