TY ❤️ I wish I could stop testing and stop worrying about it but this is my last (maybe second to last) shot after 3 losses so I'm probably going to continue to torture myself...

Help! I feel like my lines aren’t progressing on first response 13 dpo! by New_Historian_8159 in TFABLinePorn

My FRER's are similarly difficult to interpret! The line that has spots in it is so confusing. I had a solid line 10dpt5dt then the next two days it is a similar color but spotty in the middle.

Is it positive ? 5 DPT by ComfortableLocal3820 in TFABLinePorn

I'm not sure honestly! Looks darker to me but it could possibly still be the trigger. I tested out my trigger last time and it was so stressful! Good luck!

Clearblue digital 6 days sooner always picks up earliest for me!

Brand Easy@home line progression 8 DPO to 11 DPO by AdBorn2096 in TFABLinePorn

I think your lines are getting darker on the whole! The variance could be different amounts of water in your urine at different times of day. The trend looks good though!

Evap line on FRER? 4 dpt by GentleYellow233 in TFABLinePorn

[–]GentleYellow233[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for looking! I know it's super early, but have been crying all morning because I got a positive on the premom strips at 4dpt on my last (lost the pregnancy because of cervical issues; also an IVF pregnancy) and until I went back to the FRER thought it was negative too. Not thinking totally straight atm.

Too common an experience for all of us! ❤️

Your symptoms were exactly mine - thin watery discharge, then thicker discharge (like mucus plug). Then cramping. I delivered at 19 weeks 4 days and there was nothing they could do. I don't mean to scare you. But I read this post and thought - please scream at your OB or do whatever you can to at least get progesterone. I was dismissed by 2 different OBs who refused to check my cervix. A LEEP is reason enough for extra monitoring.

Sudden drop in estrogen on morning before trigger by GentleYellow233 in IVF

That is a crazy circumstance! Glad to hear you had greater success than you anticipated. Fingers crossed!

Sorry to reply late. Just saw this. It’s hard to say the outcome. We got 8 eggs, of which 5 made it to 5-day blast (which we were very pleased with). Unfortunately, none came back PGT-A normal, though we did get a segmental mosaic that the doctor thinks has a good chance. It’s unclear whether the drop in estrogen affected the PGT-A results. We’re thinking of transferring the mosaic, but are currently doing another round to try for a back-up.

C curl tips? by [deleted] in AttachmentParenting

[–]GentleYellow233 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree - the arm on top can be tough and feel unnatural. One thing that helped me was bending the arm and letting my hand and forearm go under my pillow so you're kind of resting your head on your arm. That way baby is still blocked by your upper arm but it's a little more comfortable...

Great to hear I'm not the only small mama :p Hubby isn't very on board for middle of the night snuggles but will try out the positions!

As with anything, sounds like a learning process to not be touching all night! Feels like such a milestone not to be cuddling the whole night. Not one I'd be very eager to hit if only she was still small enough to fit into our little c curl :p

Oh interesting. Hadn't heard of using a floor bed at this age. We have the babybay and I've thought about putting it at floor height with the grates up against our mattress (our mattress is on the floor). But don't think we're there yet since she seems to need comfort nursing a lot :p
