    Hi everyone! We are into our third year of fertility treatment. We have had three failed IUI’s. We then started IVF last May but none of the eggs made it to blastocysts. We did a fresh embryo transfer in September and we got pregnant with twins but unfortunately miscarried in December. I have a frozen embryo transfer today so fingers crossed everything goes okay this time round.

    Nerd Queen, congrats, wishing you a healthy pregnancy.

    Mubre and farmer, the very best of luck.

    Bilbot, I've read all your posts and my heart goes out to you both. Take some time before you both decide anything and try and be open and honest with each other if you get around to discussing donor egg. I feel its the couples baby regardless of donor egg or sperm. They will carry the baby and give birth and raise the child in a perfectly normal way as its their child.

    I'm at work and went for lunch with my colleagues like we do once a week. Two bump announcements at lunch. Both just happened. Mother of God I had to contain myself from not erupting at the table. The minute I get in my car at 5 I'll collapse in tears. I'm delighted but envious. It's so unfair

    Hi there
    Myself and my partner have been trying to conceive for some time now, I’m 40 now and have decided to go with ivf, wondering of your experiences. We have been actively trying last few months and have received protocol, due to start next Tuesday. My question is what happens a if I potentially was naturally pregnant this month (currently on day 19) and I start ivf tableta on Tuesday? Has anyone any advise or experience? I keep delaying ivf thinking it could be my lucky month ... 😬

    No joy yet unfortunately, started with Neo fertility a few months back so hopefully things will improve!

    It's tough when everyone around you is having babies :( am at the point when I avoid pregnant people in work!

    Trying letrozole, hopefully It has good results!

    Apologies for picking up this old post, just wanted to know if Letrazole has helped, as we just got started on it

    Another one for the club

    My partner and I were recently successful. Have a due date late October after 2 prior failed IVF cycles.

    Haven't commented in this part of boards previously but it helped us a lot reading other peoples comments in finding a clinic when we were at the researching stage over the past couple of years.

    Just for anyone else searching boards for info. we used the following clinics for IVF

    Galway Fertility Clinic
    Waterstone Clinic - Cork
    Reprofit - Brno, Czech Republic

    If anyone ever wants to ask a question they can pm no problem and if I can help with info I will, my partner is more up to speed with the finer details tbh but I can always run them by her also.

    Hi all.
    So as of today I'm 8dp 5dt and the last two days I have tested a good few times.(I know I shouldnt)
    On 5 first response tests the was four faint positives and one barely positive u want very good eyesight to see it...
    I've just taken a clear blue digital and it says not pregnant so now I'm confused...
    I didn't have any trigger shot or anything like that to give me a false positive.
    So I dunno confused isn't the word..

    Anyone any advice !!??


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,175 ✭✭✭✭fits


    What day are you supposed to test? Maybe wait a day and try clear blue again.

    In my experience, the Clear Blue digital isn't as sensitive as the line tests, so that may explain why it's saying not pregnant but the line tests are coming up positive.

    Thanks toots.
    I jus hope it is a yes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 446 ✭✭Anne_cordelia


    Thanks toots.
    I jus hope it is a yes.

    I agree with Toots. The digital is less sensitive. Try a First Response with first morning urine as that’s the most sensitive.


  • Registered Users Posts: 446 ✭✭Anne_cordelia


    Ps very tentative congrats as they look positive to me


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,953 ✭✭✭bilbot79


    We had a chemical that came and went over the course of a few tests.

    In very early days the batch each individual test was produced in could have different sensitivity


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,119 ✭✭✭LCD


    On 3 separate FET we had positive tests after the 2 week wait, which were all false positives. Personally I believe all the hormones involved in IVF can effect any of the pee on the stick tests.

    Crap advice but just sit tight & if you are you'll know soon enough.

    Best of luck, is a bloody nightmare wait, which ends with either the highest of highs or the lowest of lows. No in between

    Hi everyone.

    We got our bfp..booked in for early scan on 20th so fingers crossed all will be ok xxxz

    Thinking of everyone trying here..it's a long hard process with many bumps on the way but I wish everyone the best and please God may you all get to the very precious end goal..
    Baby dust to all xxxz

    Huge congrats!! Best of luck and hope the scan goes well!


  • Registered Users Posts: 82 ✭✭Fingersandtoes


    Delighted for you. I've done that 2 week wait numerous times all with a negative result. It's torture. As one poster said it can be hard to analyse symptoms with all the hormones from IVF. I wish you a happy and healthy pregnancy.

    I'm giving IVF one last shot in about 8 weeks. I've moved to a clinic abroad. I feel its now or never. It's almost two years since I last had IVF. Mentally the previous 18months of fertility treatment had a huge affect on my mental health and my relationships with people. I feel much stronger now.
    Wishing all of you the best of luck
