Ladies doing IUI or IVF - 2016 (11 BFPs so far!)

Millie/tinsel, I hear you re the main part of the forum!

CCW, I see a faint line there, everything crossed. I spotted fairly heavily from just before 6 weeks until 8 weeks and a had a tiny bit of spotting between weeks 8 and 9. I'm guessing they've got you on progesterone suppositories, those can irritate the cervix and cause spotting.

Hi and good luck to everyone else.

Hey,

I’m so glad things are going good for you.
The bleeding has stopped, it’s day 4 of a real strange bleed. Cant even call it a period.
It was dark to start but it then went to like a watered down red blood colour but very thin like. Not passed any clots.
Not been well today. Strange feelings in my tummy, backache, nausea, very hungry, lethargic and tired.

I’m on progesterone shots as they think my progesterone let me down last time as I was not absorbing it.

Will test in the morning and go from there xx

Huwbus everyone ?

Hopefully it’s just implantation. Everything crossed for your test tomorrow xx


Nothing new here, 7dpo.. woke up to banging headache. I actually felt a little excited that this could be our month, as I seem to get headaches like these when hormones are all over the place.. but I don’t know. I’m not feeling anything else so it’s probably nothing. Another week to wait.

I also slept in really late after falling asleep early!! It’s probably just the medication I’m taking though lol.

Thanks ladies, so far so good.

CCW, I've always been on normal progesterone supplements before, or none when the pregnancies were natural, never thought I had any issues. I'm on the injections this time and I do wonder if that's making the difference.

Good luck to you both.
 
Think it was Chemical pregnancy. Hospital said to stop my meds.
Still having this weird bleed but only when wiping and it’s still red ?
Think the progesterone injections holding off a proper period ?
I had a lush hot bubble bath today,first in ages! Xx

Sorry CCW :(
I always missed nice hot baths in the tww with my cycles.


All progesterone for me has always held off full AF.

2 out of 3 times I didn’t have any spotting or bleeding until a few days after I stopped progesterone.
The other time I spotted a bit a few days before test date.

So I think that it would hold off proper AF.

Sorry to hear that CCW, I was really hoping for you xxxxx (big hugs)
 
I'm sorry to hear that ccw!

Oral progesterone pills have held off af for me, but not the ones you shove up Fifi. Started bleeding when I tried using them to postpone q after IVF...
 
hey all, Sorry if this is not related to what you are all discussing but i am so disheartened....... me and my partner are in the process and waiting for the first stage of ICSI. we have had a fair few appointment, signed all consent forms etc. We had an appointment at Guys on first floor who took mine and my partners blood and said they said on the next appointment we would discuss the procedure and then appointment after we start on the next cycle. on going to that appointment we was infact told my partner needed ANOTHER sperm check (he has a low sperm count) and we was waiting for his genetics results. this was 7th March. He had a check up also to see all ok also in that time. I have been calling for last 2 weeks and then today they called him....THEY CANT LOCATE HIS GENETIC RESULTS. He needs to go in again Tuesday or another blood test for genetics and ANOTHER sperm donation for freezing! they said he will speak to our consultant also. It is so disheartening! has anyone ever had experience of anything similar??

I've only experienced that they ruined our blood analysis.. it's better getting checked more than once, right? Have they talked about postponing the cycles, are there any special risk factor for you guys?
 
Hi 00n00, not the same level of distress but I was trying to get hold of blood tests from guys that they did in November and they couldn't find any record of them. The reception guy even got the head nurse to look.

The advantage of guys is that they have no waiting list and the clinical aspect of the treatment is very clean and good. My son was conceived through icsi with them. Xx

We are all good thanks, don't get much online time but try to pop in the long term threads and see how everyone is getting on when I can. Never really sure whether to post or not as I clearly remember the hidious pain of infertility and how unfair everything ttc is.

14 weeks wow, won't be long until your 20 week scan. Are you in the UK these days?
