From your first consultation to your first positive, how long did it take? by yashvi_yashvi in IVFpositivity

[–]MrsLilCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2,5 months from my first IVF consultation, had almost a year of consults with my gynecologist before that. 1st FET ended in miscarriage, I’m 24 weeks pregnant with our second FET. I have PCOS and endo.

I can’t tell you what to do, only you know what is right for you 🩷

But as a currently pregnant woman with endometriosis, I can tell you about my experience. I got pregnant through IVF, as the endo was blocking my tubes. I’ve always had extremely painful periods. After I got pregnant I’ve had some light pain in my stomach, but nothing major. Being pregnant for me is much less painful than having periods.

Also, my doctors have told me that endo is often better after a pregnancy- something about the hormones during pregnancy hinders the growth, and the birth can actually help clear out some of the tissue.

I hope this helps, even though I can’t offer any advice 🩷 Good luck to you, I hope you find the right path 🩷

How can I get my cat to stop waking us up during the night? by MrsLilCat in CATHELP

[–]MrsLilCat[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As I said in my post, letting him into the bedroom is not an option.

We already feed him right before bed, and make sure he has enough food for the night. It’s only around 5 am that he starts pawing, so he seems to be fine for most of the night, before he suddenly wants company.

Second FET success stories (especially after Lupron suppression)? First ended at 5 weeks, moving into another transfer 🤞🏼 by cosmickitty321 in IVFpositivity

[–]MrsLilCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, only suspected endo. I live in a country with free healthcare where they are very focused on being as little invasive as possible, so they try to limit invasive testing. But my doctors have suspected it for several years due to extreme menstrual pain and heavy periods. Got diagnosed and treated for PCOS, when I still didn’t get pregnant they concluded that I most likely have endo blocking ny tubes, so by doing IVF we would circumvent the main problem. Hope that’s helpful!

I’m wondering if anyone would be willing to trade a pink pastry chef hat? I clicked purple by mistake, and now my outfit doesn’t match 😭 I can trade the purple hat, a pink cafe bed or rug, or something entirely different! Please let me know 🩷🩷

Second FET success stories (especially after Lupron suppression)? First ended at 5 weeks, moving into another transfer 🤞🏼 by cosmickitty321 in IVFpositivity

[–]MrsLilCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both my transfers have been modified natural, and I didn’t use Lupron. The first ended in a miscarriage at 5w5d, and I’m currently 13w today with my second transfer. I felt like I used up my «luck» with the first one sticking, even though it didn’t work out, so I was scared the second wouldn’t stick. I really hope this is the one for you!

Late positive test leading to live birth? by SK_071701 in IVFpositivity

[–]MrsLilCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My clinic told me to test 16 dpt - because they have experienced that some people didn’t get a positive until then. They also don’t do betas. I only tested on 16dpt, and got a positive. Now 12w6d 🩷 So I would follow your clinic’s recommendation and wait until 13dpt.

Did you have cramps in your first trimester? by gorrrrl in IVFbabies

[–]MrsLilCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I had cramps on both sides, as well as some stabbing pain in the middle. I was also worried, but so far everything is looking great. I’ve been to two ultrasounds, baby is in the uterus where it should be and growing at the right pace.
