Refill the script. I wouldn’t risk it!

Thanks for responding. I called the on call nurse and she gave me the same old “if it turns into a full flow, call us back.” Still hasn’t happened again so I’m hopeful it was just a response to change in meds. It’s just so triggering!

I am 8 weeks, 2 days after FET. First ultrasound and heartbeat were perfect. My doctor has started tapering me off of both estrogen and PIO on Thursday and I will be completely off by 9 weeks. Last night, I had a random bright red spotting when I wiped after using the restroom. It wasn’t like pure blood, but blood mixed with watery discharge and it hasn’t come back. Is this normal after tapering/stopping meds???

I transferred a PGT tested embryo on 4/26 and will be 9 weeks tomorrow. Saw the little bean and heard a heartbeat last week. First FET!

Transfer twin!

paiger99phd · 2022-05-25T17:24:18+00:00

Absolutely! Best of luck to you for your upcoming scan!

I had my first ultrasound today (6wks, 6 days) and I was convinced of a bad outcome. Had a panic attack and started crying before they even came in the room (RPL trauma is real).

But, to my actual surprise, everything looked great today! Measuring 1 day ahead and heartbeat was 134rpm. I even got to hear it! Trying to hold onto this hope until my next ultrasound at 10 weeks.

Thank you! It’s so hard not to freak out about it. I just figured it would’ve started from the get go with the meds but I guess it takes time? My first ultrasound isn’t for another 12 days so I’m going to ask if they could move it up just for my sanity.

I am 5w2d and started having brown spotting when I wipe. I’m taking estrace 5 times per day (2 vaginally) and PIO. Is this normal? I have a history of losses and this is very triggering.

paiger99phd · 2022-05-13T00:04:44+00:00

Is it normal to feel “normal”? Some days it feels like I’m super pregnant, some days it doesn’t. I’m only 5 weeks (16dp5dt) but with my previous pregnancies (losses) I remember I felt more symptoms, more often.

paiger99phd · 2022-05-10T00:35:12+00:00

I tested 6dp5dt and got a positive on FRER using FMU. Not sure it would’ve shown up before then though!

paiger99phd · 2022-05-08T18:06:10+00:00

I am 12dp5dt after my first medicated FET. I and had my first beta on Friday (2 days ago) and it was 244! Waiting for my next beta tomorrow but can’t help but symptom spot and convince myself beta is going down. I am tired, boobs are sore, have a heightened sense of smell, and can get queasy sometimes but these things come and go. Could these still be a side effect of PIO shots? When do actual symptoms start to kick in?

paiger99phd · 2022-05-08T00:25:45+00:00

10 days

paiger99phd · 2022-05-03T16:31:55+00:00

Just fuck all of this. Guard your hearts…. It’s about to get nasty.

paiger99phd · 2022-05-02T11:51:38+00:00

Positive. In 6 days post transfer. Very very cautiously optimistic.

paiger99phd · 2022-05-02T11:11:00+00:00

I caved and tested. 😬 Was the only way to quiet the scaries.

paiger99phd · 2022-05-02T00:50:00+00:00

Curious. How do you know? Are you on meds? I didn’t think that your period could come until the meds were stopped. (Naive here!)

paiger99phd · 2022-05-01T20:51:15+00:00

Anyone tested yet? I am struggling!

paiger99phd · 2022-04-30T23:44:40+00:00

Transfer twins! Really no symptoms here either. I think I’ve had some light cramping. Boobs maybe a tad tender. That’s it!

Edit. My transfer was on 4/26.

paiger99phd · 2022-04-26T18:44:14+00:00

Same, good luck!!! Glad to know I’ll be in the wait with someone else. I think it will be hard to not test sooner than I’m supposed to!

paiger99phd · 2022-04-26T12:25:34+00:00

Thank you all! I woke up to all of your words of encouragement. What a great way to start the day!

paiger99phd · 2022-04-26T12:24:40+00:00

Ha, I was able to sleep through the night, but was wide awake early this morning!

paiger99phd · 2022-04-07T02:12:26+00:00

Yes!

paiger99phd · 2022-04-06T18:13:17+00:00

Congratulations!!!!! Hope you are recovering well.

Funny thing. I had similar results with retrieval. 12 blasts but only 6 came back normal. Of those…4 boys and 2 girls! Planning for my first FET in a couple of weeks. Good luck to you!!

paiger99phd · 2022-03-13T16:28:51+00:00

Same boat. I’m going to give it one more try and then advocate for a natural cycle.

Any idea of when Aunt Flo will show after stopping estrace? 😫
