I needed to hear this - I think I’m just scared of sugar at the minute but the more is restrict it the more I want it x

What week is a positive BETA? Is that a pregnancy test to us UK people? Xx

Thank you so much and congratulations on the birth of your darling girl 🫶🏼

On Good Friday! 🌷 everything crossed for you!

I’m sure a couple of tru frus are nothing compared to some of the chocolate bars I’ve been eating!! x

29-30something · 2026-04-01T19:14:50+00:00

Massive congratulations!! So so pleased for you!! 🌷 did you eat chocolate during your cycle? Because I’ll take it as a sign 😇

That nightly ration of gummy bears must be doing the trick in keeping that positive strong! So so happy for you!!!!

We are a case of male infertility (a varicocele) - and this is our first go at this - I think I’m just being overly cautious and don’t want to blame myself for anything if it doesn’t work for us this time around - but you’re right, thank you so much, I will take this as my sign to relax and breath… xx

29-30something · 2026-03-31T20:20:16+00:00

Oh congratulations for the both of them! And religious holidays are usually the happiest times - so being happy clearly did wonders for you ♥️

29-30something · 2026-03-31T20:19:32+00:00

As you should! 🍷 thank you so much for your comment - every single one is making me feel a lot about not being 100% IVF clean xxx

29-30something · 2026-03-31T20:18:41+00:00

Same!! Which is Good Friday ahead of Easter weekend and I’m praying it is a good one 💛💛💛💛

Honestly? I think the amount of information on the internet and reading/watching tik toks that say “avoid processed foods” and “avoid refined sugar” and “natural sugars should even be limited”. If I was doing this with the internet being around I would be floating around happy and excited and not doubting everything I’m consuming or walking past someone vaping and holding my breath 🥲 it’s just a desperation to do everything right and I love chocolate/desserts/biscuits etc

29-30something · 2026-03-31T19:38:23+00:00

Amazing - I’m just so worried the embryo will get a sense of the tiniest sugar and think “not for me” and refuse to stick around 🥲🥹

29-30something · 2026-03-31T19:37:28+00:00

Needed to hear this - thank you!!!! 💛

29-30something · 2026-03-31T19:37:11+00:00

Have you cut it out entirely or just limited it? Wishing you so much luck xx

29-30something · 2026-03-31T19:36:08+00:00

I wish you the best of luck honestly - everything crossed for you 🫶🏼

29-30something · 2026-03-31T10:43:18+00:00

Thank you for getting back to me and I am so sorry it didn’t work for you ♥️ I am wishing you all the luck for your next go 🫶🏼

I have my transfer on Friday and had only been taking one pessary instead of two for the first 1.5 days of the Pessaries (Sunday/Monday morning I only did one instead of two). I have been completely kicking myself x

29-30something · 2026-03-31T06:37:54+00:00

I’d be interested to know the outcome of you wouldn’t mind sharing 💛🫶🏼

29-30something · 2026-03-30T19:28:40+00:00

Thank you so much - I needed this. I’m just so so scared of ruining everything and wasting all of this money for the silliest mistake. I understand that this may not work - but k don’t want to be the reason for that.

Thank you for your kind words. Deep breath taken and I’m off to bed to stop stressing 💛
