Pregnant with my 2nd and was prescribed inhixa injections from 9 weeks pregnant. (Had to do them in my last pregnancy from 12 weeks too due to having Lupus). This time around I’m really struggling with the pain and bruising. Is anyone else on them or have any tips/tricks?? I have to be on them for the whole pregnanc...

Hey everyone! Yesterday was my embryo transfer and even though I’m trying to keep calm, it’s been hard not to think of the outcomes. I transferred a grade 1, 5 day blastocyst. My doctor said my uterus is “dense” and “tilted” which could affect implantation, but my endometrium looked good. Could anyone share their fi...

Hi I had my ER last Friday and they managed to get 5 eggs, happy with that low AMH and left ovary didn’t respond. All 5 fertisilised, however 2 were abnormal and 3 were perfect on the day. Yesterday I had a day 3 call to say all 3 were still in the running, 1 at 7cells 1 at 8 cells and 1 at 10 cells. Praying for...

Did anyone used the Clearblue fertility monitor to track ovulation.?? I need to know if anyone had any luck with this to conceive with certain gender , as I want to conceive with Baby Boy , I would like to know more about this. I want to know when to have sex to conceive with baby boy ??? Thanks

So after two and a half years of trying for our second child, and four losses along the way, may husband has finally managed to get an appointment to get his sperm tested. (Don't get me started on why it's taken so long, it is not for lack of asking on our part, let's just leave it there). We are still trying but w...

Does anyone know where I can buy clomid from? I don’t want to go through NHS fertility because they take over 12months for just an assessment. I was previously on Clomid before and it worked after 2 cycle. My partner and I have been TTC again for more than 6 months but NHS will not help prescribe Clomid as we have a...

Anyone else experience this. Share your experience

I honestly cannot believe that I have gotten pregnant naturally after being told I’d never conceive this way. I am still in disbelief but I am beyond grateful😭

Am I greedy? Or tempting fate? I’ve got a healthy 20 month old little boy from IVF and a healthy 4 month old little girl from a frozen embryo transfer. Am I being silly for wanting to do it again for a 3rd, am I being greedy just because it worked first time both times that i think it will work first time again. ...

trying to conceive is soo hard for me right now any tips ?😪

Has anyone had a hysteroscopy and if so, could you tell me what advice you were given around having sex afterwards? My procedure is diagnostic with possibly scraping off scarred tissue, and is around the time of ovulation, but I’m not sure if I will be bleeding or allowed to ttc immediately afterwards. Anyone had th...

Considering buying these tablets to have a final push at trying naturally before IVF (we have male factor and low AMH). I’m really dubious though as I don’t get how it can help both men and women when their bodies etc are so different… anyone have any experience with it or an alternative they would recommend?

So I had my last depo jab in Jan last year and obviously it takes up to a year for fertility to return and I’m just wondering where I go from here because I’m tracking my periods and they’re regular but I’m still not pregnant, it’s really getting me down now

Me and my husband just started the cycle for iui number two. I finished taking 5 days worth of leterzole two days ago. We both feel very confident and have a good feeling about this cycle. We can't tell if it's because we know what to expect with a iui or if our gut feeling is that it'll work. Anyone else have this?

Just something to say here to you/ hope it happens for you/ even just draw a big love heart and sign with a kiss. Anyone have any advice on what to write?

I wondered if anyone in this group who got pregnant via IVF might be able to give me some advice. I'm currently expecting but my best friend is about to start IVF. We've both been super open about TTC and she has been incredibly supportive through my pregnancy so far. I try to be careful of how much I discuss with h...

My scan this Monday showed the egg was 10 mm. It's supposed to grow by 1.5 - 2 mm per day. But this Thursday it was only 11 mm. Would you get IUI if it was 18mm by this Monday, despite weird slow growth?

Hello, I just completed my IVF ICSI cycle. Out of 11 eggs collected, 9 were mature and 7 fertilized, resulting in 3 quality B embryos that reached the blastocyst stage. A biopsy sample has been taken today for PGT-A, and all three embryos have been frozen. Now, I need to decide whether to analyze these embryos now...

mama’s drop your experience with iud

Hi all I’ve just had a failed transfer of my only embryo. I am really struggling today and feel hopeless for the future and don’t see IVF working for us after being given 10% chance of success with my age and low AMH. Just wondering if anyone has any tips with how to keep going and not feel miserable all the time...
