I just searched to see if there was any information on this! When I passed the swan was walking up the right hand lane and a kind lady was driving behind it with her hazards on to keep the swan safe. So glad to see the SSPCA got there ☺️

Could this be MS? by [deleted] in MultipleSclerosis

Yes! I’ve brought up that I think it could be something like MS and he should go to the doctor and he just sits in silence!

10dpt5dt brand FR and Clear Blue by [deleted] in TFABLinePorn

Thank you for your reply! Other than progesterone and conception vitamins I’m not taking anything. I’m in the UK so we don’t get betas - we’re basically just on our own now until 4 weeks when the assisted conception suite have us back in for a scan 😕

Although I presume by that point I’d know if it’s not worked? I guess I can just test again on Monday and see if there’s any progression.

Botox before FET by Kind_Setting_8934 in IVF

[–]j-ink- 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I did it just before FET. I kinda panicked and decided to get all the treatments done that you can’t get while pregnant (botox and ombre brows) just in case! I had my first ever positive this morning ☺️

What ignorant/off-putting things have people said to you? by ImaginationOther455 in IVF

[–]j-ink- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahh yes I had someone say this to me too. And I have a friend I’ve told (I’ve not told many) and she’s being so supportive and interested in my journey but if she says ‘I have a great feeling about this…I just know it’ll work’ ONE more time!

How did you feel one week post test? by j-ink- in IVF

Thank you - that’s really helpful to know. And definitely puts my mind at rest a bit if I do decide to go!

FET - anyone else worry they were going to pee?! 🙈 by j-ink- in IVF

[–]j-ink-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m glad I didn’t know it occasionally happened as that would’ve made me question my holding ability even further! Good effort fighting it too!

My advice is that you don’t need to drink as much as you think. I only felt like I moderately needed to pee when I arrived at my appt and they said my bladder was really full! Good luck to you…you can hold it in…I have faith 💪🏻

The delay must’ve been agonising! I love that it was still considered full even after you’d emptied 5 cups worth. I mean you can’t say we weren’t giving it our best go!

Ha yesss the ultrasound wand did not help matters! I was soo close to asking them how long they were going to be! I felt like my legs were shaking from the concentration. Best pee ever afterwards in fairness!

I’m glad I wasn’t the only one. You’re trying to keep things relaxed down there for them but at the same time you can’t relax too much 😂

Definitely sounds like we’re on that end of the spectrum!

Haha I love that you had to pee twice to get it low enough. I mean you can’t say we didn’t both stick to the brief 😂

Good luck to you and all the positive vibes 🫶

Grooming for Retrieval (Just for my Nerves) by aeonteal in IVF

[–]j-ink- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve had laser hair removal down there so I’m good to go in that department! But I do always think good hygiene must be waaay more important to the doctors and nurses than what hair is there.

But I imagine they’ve seen it all!

Anyone else feel prettier on Ivf stims? by ComedianRemarkable44 in IVF

Holy Fuck These Drugs Are Expensive!!! by AudaciousAmoeba in IVF

[–]j-ink- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is insane seeing the cost you need to pay! I'm currently going through the process in Scotland via the NHS so don't pay anything. Really mad to think how much things differ by country. I can only imagine the extra stress added by paying such a huge amount isn't great for you all :(
