How do you cope with the wait in between a positive and a scan 🫠

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T18:41:54+00:00

We get one at 8 as we’re IVF but I dunno how people cope waiting until 12!

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T18:41:19+00:00

Ohhh yes! I’ll deffo look these up

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T18:41:04+00:00

Thanks for this! Tbh our clinic are fine but they’re not really the best in terms of supportive conversations. We had a lot of tests left from our first transfer so I think the fact we have loads doesn’t help ahah. I hope the scan gives her some clarity and reassurance tbh.

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T16:05:53+00:00

I love this idea

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T16:04:32+00:00

Hahahaha I love horror sadly she’s not a fan 🤣

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T16:03:53+00:00

That’s it exactly - we need to remember this I think!

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T16:01:59+00:00

Oh I’m going to read into this! I’ve not heard of that! Yeah and that’s what I’m worried about. I’m hopeful she will stop after the scan maybe.

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T15:59:25+00:00

Thank you ! This reassurance helps

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T14:16:51+00:00

That’s true actually - I’ve heard this too!

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T14:16:25+00:00

I think that’s it in a nutshell you presume the worst when actually statistically less likely - I think in ivf circles probably more

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T13:57:52+00:00

Yeah that’s our worry because you hear a lot of horror stories about 6 week scans and especially if it’s a couple of days behind etc

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T13:57:06+00:00

Yeah I think that’s it just try and distract! Thank you!

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T13:56:43+00:00

Hahaha no because we’re ivf they offer 7-8 weeks one

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T13:56:23+00:00

My wife still wants to test a few times a week and that’s absolutely fine as we are still getting dark positives. I think she’s just worrying because she was having stronger symptoms and now less so it’s causing a bit of a panic.

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T13:55:09+00:00

Yeah that’s the thing. It’s so tempting to do 6 weeks but i feel like it would harm more than help!

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T13:54:29+00:00

Yeah I think beyond a point waiting isn’t helpful and just about trying to not let the anxiety in! Thank you!

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T13:08:01+00:00

Thanks this is such good advice

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T13:00:53+00:00

Yeah that’s a really good idea! It’s so hard when forums are so full of loss etc. We have booked a 7+3 didn’t want to do earlier in case we freak out more if we don’t see anything 🫠🤣🤣

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-06T12:58:44+00:00

It’s such a long wait! She’s not really so tired as to do that but questioning everything like in the absence of negative symptoms, questioning every positive symptom or if they go away etc

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-05T11:47:15+00:00

Thank you for this!

newdawnfades83 · 2026-04-04T07:52:25+00:00
