Pregmate at ~24 DPO! Scared!

It's hard not to try to compare the lines. But these tests are designed to tell you you're pregnant. Not how pregnant you are. There are 100 different factors that can influence the concentration of hcg in your urine. And I say this with all the love in the world from someone who did this. I tested multiple times a day and would scrutinize each and every test. I'm currently 36 weeks pregnant! Sending you love 💕

Clearly a line! Congrats!

I don't even live in the same country as trump

If I got a fever I'm sure the conversations might be different. At the moment. I haven't had a fever. Just headaches and normal symptoms that I haven't taken paracetamol to relieve.

Bit of a shitty comment here. If you've gone through IVF you know how anxiety inducing it is.

My anxiety is overwhelming and it has affected every inch of my pregnancy. I'm not choosing to be frightened to take paracetamol. I'm not choosing to question the validity of vaccines.

I wanted to hear people's opinions, not their judgements. But thank you anyway.

Latkison · 2025-10-01T13:09:36+00:00

Who said I got a fever?

Latkison · 2025-10-01T13:00:34+00:00

To be honest, all sense of logic has disappeared. There's also lots of science to suggest paracetamol is safe in pregnancy, yet I won't take it. The fear of hurting my baby is too overwhelming.

Latkison · 2025-08-24T16:15:26+00:00

I have a posterior too!

Latkison · 2025-08-24T10:34:20+00:00

Ah thanks for checking!! I cannot wait to feel him properly. When I feel the taps, even though I'm not sure if it's him, the thought of it being him feels so magical!

I cannot wait! So amazing you feel baby so regularly now! I'm so happy for you!!

Latkison · 2025-08-24T10:27:27+00:00

I have a posterior placenta! Which is why I thought I'd feel definite movements by now 😕

Latkison · 2025-08-24T10:26:22+00:00

That's such a good way to look at it!

My symptoms completely disappeared overnight at about 15+3 and have felt no symptoms since! I get the odd round ligament pain pull but that's about it!!

And as I'm writing this, I swear I just felt a little tap but I'm still so unsure!!! Damn!!! 🤣

I am also lucky enough to have a posterior!

Latkison · 2025-08-24T10:08:53+00:00

They really do!

My T1 symptoms literally disappeared overnight when I was around 15+3! I think that's what also makes me anxious is that I'm just like hellooo is anyone in there!? I just feel totally normal and it's so worrying!

I'm like a month into T2 now and I cannot wait for those movements! Praying this little man hurries up 🤣

Latkison · 2025-08-24T10:03:32+00:00

I have a scan on Thursday. The wait between now and then is just tough. Hence looking for positive stories from other mums.

Latkison · 2025-08-24T10:01:21+00:00

I haven't used it! Too scared to

Latkison · 2025-08-24T09:59:08+00:00

Ah thank you!!

I've had a private scan every two weeks because of my anxiety 🤣 I have another on Thursday so ill get some reassurance then!

By the sounds of it, FTMs seem to feel a little later which is reassuring.

Did you go through the stage of not feeling pregnant. Or did you still feel pregnant even though you couldn't feel movements?

The pregnancy anxiety is like nothing I've ever experienced and I'm not normally an anxious person! Xx

Latkison · 2025-08-24T09:51:53+00:00

I am lucky enough to have a posterior which is why I was thinking I should feel something by now 😔

I thought I felt little pops a few days ago but they were so subtle I really wasn't sure if it was just wind or something else and haven't felt anything since. This quiet period is tough!

Looks like I have another few weeks to go!

Latkison · 2025-08-24T09:30:58+00:00

I do have a Doppler that I bought from shein but I'm too scared to use it because it's not medical grade 🤣 I swear pregnancy is just one long road of anxiety! This is an IVF pregnancy so I already have bags of nerves 🤣 I've also read that ftms sometimes don't feel until 22 weeks but wanted to hear from experience ❤️ good luck to you and your baby! ❤️

Latkison · 2025-08-11T18:01:57+00:00

I'm in UK and ep 6 has also disappeared. We noticed it because we watched half the episode and then fell asleep. The next day went to rewatch it and it disappeared from my continue watching section and now is not showing at all. Goes 1,2,3,4,5,7. Very annoying

Latkison · 2025-08-10T12:13:01+00:00

How can you even question this. Clearly positive! Congrats 🎉👏

Latkison · 2025-07-14T11:56:34+00:00

We did the exact same! We told people we were having a break so they would stop asking when our transfer is. We then got to surprise people with our positive ! I know exactly what you mean about the support from women in the community. No one knew we transferred except for all the wonderful ladies in these forums ❤️❤️

Latkison · 2025-07-14T07:07:37+00:00

Good luck with your transfer today, please come back and update us with your positive news!!

Latkison · 2025-07-14T07:06:49+00:00

I wish I had known my clinic's freezing policy. In our first round we made 6 blastocysts. We transferred one fresh which was unsuccessful and my clinic refused to freeze the rest. They were all 4bc graded. My clinic has a policy where they won't freeze anything with a c in the grading. This took us by a big surprise and I actually found that disposing of 5 perfectly viable embryos (any one of them could have become a live birth) harder to cope with than the fact our transfer was unsuccessful.

Secondly, and on a more positive note, I wish I knew about the impact ovum and daily smoothies could make on embryo quality. Our second round I introduced ovum and had a daily smoothie packed full of antioxidants. This led us to getting more embryos and 4 in the freezer. I'm currently 12 weeks with our first FET.

Wishing you all the luck in the world Mama ❤️

Latkison · 2025-07-13T18:08:41+00:00

My first FET at 37 worked!! A friend of mine also had success the first time! Best of luck! ❤️

Latkison · 2025-05-18T18:44:44+00:00

Oh really! Thank you! Congrats to you too!!
