Hi ladies how you all doing?
I had my ERA test results all come back normal. My Thyroid has gone really low was high in December and low in Jan. need to get this back to what it needs to be before I start.

How u feeling kay?

Kelly must be getting exciting for you?

[Kay2024]

Hi MSs so good to hear from you. What is the ERA ?
Where are u in cycle if you are in cycle? I had a scratch before this transfer which was awful. Not feeling too bad, not really experiencing any symptoms apart from things that could be caused by pesseries too the wait is so crap. I’m really trying to keep occupied.
this cycle was different as I was on aspirin as well so I was hyper sensitive and I have so many bruises from injections. How are you doing?
Xx

[Kellyg1213]

Ahh that’s exciting Kay, when is your test day?

MSS at least that’s another thing ruled out with the ERA. So what’s the plan now, sort your thyroid out and then plan for next transfer?

It is getting exciting yes, nearly have everything for little man!
Symptoms… second trimester was nice.. can see why they say third is the hardest. I have quite bad pelvic pain like in my pubic area, kills to roll over and sometimes if I’ve done too much which can even be walking a little too far, it killssss to walk butttt will all be worth it when he is here!
I’d say other than that symptoms aren’t too bad to be fair! Love feeling him move now he’s bigger and stronger!

[Kay2024]

Aaaaw, Kelly that so exciting and so cute..(feeling movements and stuff not pain) I really hope I get there one day too. My OTD is next weds, whether I last until then is a different thing. I realised today that I ran out of medication, they gave me less but I didn’t register it at the time so had to drive to the clinic to get more. That was annoying.

When are you due
Xx

[Kellyg1213]

Oh good that you were able to get some in time though!

I’m really rooting for you ladies in this group! And just try not to panic if you don’t feel symptoms, I don’t think I felt symptoms until 7-8 weeks other than ones caused by the pessaries! Your time will come!

I’m due 22nd march.. which sounds so far away right now but only 6 weeks!

Hi Kay

Its Endometrial Receptivity Array. Test my lining to see if the window they made the transfer is the right time and for any bacteria. I need to get my Tyroid level right before i can start. What is a scratch? Fingers crossed for you.

Kelly not long to go. Are you still working?

Fingers crossed for you and me Kay we have our little miracle.

[Kay2024]

MSs, I really do have my fingers crossed for us both. It’s been quite a journey. The scratch is where they scratch the lining of uterus for about 10 seconds it lasts it’s very weird sensations and uncomfortable. It is meant to make the lining richer and thicker to support implantation

[Kellyg1213]

Hi MSS,

Still working, I work from home so not finishing until 2 weeks prior to due date so I can spend more time off with baby. Slightly regretting this now because I have had enough, just don’t have the motivation. I want to nest. lol

So did your Era say that they did transfer at the optimal time?

[MSS]

Kay was there a reason why they got you to do the scratch? Sorry hope you dont mind me asking. I feel i have done all the tests they have asked me to doo.

Kelly it confirmed the timing was correct which just makes me feel like why did it not work. My last transfer was an embryo that had been PGT test too.

Guess it’s hard deciding when maternity should start as you want to spend time with the baby. See how you go, could you go off earlier if needed?

[Kellyg1213]

Yes that’s annoying, it must be so frustrating. How long do they think it will take to sort thyroid out and try again? Do you know if you’ve transferred girls or boys? Sometimes people struggle with one sex don’t they.

Yes I’m quite lucky with my work they’re really flexible so if I needed to I could finish early. I’m going to try hold out though I’m sure I’ll be fine!

[Kay2024]

Aww Kelly that is great about you work, helps when they are supportive really glad for you

MSs, don’t mind at all, it’s good to share. they wanted to do it because there is never even implantation when any cycle, I have never got pregnant. I told them that I always test early but there is literally never even a faint line. So it was a suggestion that if they do it apparently it releases all these chemicals and helps the lining to regrow am hoping it works. TMI alert it made my period extremely heavy and uncomfortable a week after I came on. I think I’m gonna test now I’m a bit on edge

[Kay2024]

Hey, I didn’t do it. I think I’m gonna try to just wait until weds two more days, or if I do one tomorrow morning that would be a deffo deffo wouldn’t it. Hope you are doing ok. That’s cool about transfer in April. Did you ever take off with acupuncture MSs? I did it with this frozen round.

[MSS]
