Trying to stay positive

Do anything of you think things happen for a reason. I am on my 3rd FET attempt, but decided to miss last cycle, after the previous attempt was abandoned due to thin lining. Im going on my best friends hen do and just wanted to enjoy myself instead of worrying about being emotional over IVF. In a way I felt a bit selfish deciding the hen was more important, but mental health takes priority.

I ovulated yesterday, but have come down with the worst case of covid I have ever had. There was no way I'd have been able to have the FET and would have been so stressed and heart broken it would have been cancelled.

I'm telling myself it's a sign, that in 2 weeks time, when AF starts, that will be my lucky cycle and my lining will finally be thick enough with a new protocol. My mind will be in a happy place after the hen and looking forward to her wedding.

Don’t feel guilty at all for postponing! I have postponed FET’s so I can go on holidays ect. You need to still have a life. I’m on my fourth FET and if this doesn’t work I’m not thing again till after my holiday overseas in June. I’m over pausing my life and travels and now just being more casual about it all. I’m on day 3 after FET.

@Lauren Yes, we decided to stop letting IVF control our lives. It's now planned around my life. I just feel a little guilty sometimes as I'm now in my 40s, I have the frozen eggs but still time isn't on my side

Yes I’m 41 so I totally understand where your coming from. I think it’s important to live your life.

Life is great as older single mom of 1, baby 2 at 45?

I’m 44 with a 5 year old and life is amazing. I’ve been raising this kid alone the whole time and I’m living a dream life where I live between the US, Thailand and Spain. I own a home, have a good remote job, keep my kid with me all day.

I want to have a second child. But not desperately. I’d need to borrow some semen from the bank and while I think it’s unfortunate to not know the origin of the semen and the possibility of 100 siblings , I’m open to it. My insurance covers IUI and IVF through my next birthday.

Would you start over as mom of an infant at 45 years old?

Am I pregnant?

Hi everyone 🤗 I got a really faint line yesterday at 10 dpo and this morning I tested at 11 dpo and I can't see a line 😭 is there still a chance I could be pregnant ?🙏 and my HCG is fluctuating because it's so early? This test was from yesterday

Pregnancy test

I took this pregnancy test and then a few days later I looked at it again and noticed a very faint line but then I took 3 more on different days and they all came out negative. What’s going on? I’m tripping out because I see it but my husband says he doesn’t.

Positive test?

Do yall see it? There’s the original and another one that I added sharpness to and stuff to see the faint liner more better. I took more and they came out negative. So I’m so confused. Also that line didn’t appear immediately I noticed it like the next day.

Any ideas what’s happening with my temp?

Thought I had ovulated but now I’m not so sure, I didn’t record my temp on a couple of days because I’ve been unwell with a fever so it was a lot higher than it should of been

Compression Socks

Hey, for how long did everyone keep their compression socks on? I am also on blood thinning injections for 6weeks. Many thanks
