    Congratulations Skaps - that's great news :j :j :j
    I really hope that this one sticks.

    I'm due to test on Thursday and my body's gone mental. I feel quite sick in the afternoons but today I've stated getting cramps. I don't know what to do with myself!! I've only taken a few hours off on OTD as I think it will be better to be busy in work whatever the news. It all feels very daunting now - how can time move so slowly????

    Did my pregnancy test today and it was negative. Feeling very sad and sorry for myself as I was so optimistic. Will ring the clinic later for a review and hopefully to book in for the next frozen transfer. This journey is so hard core, I just have to find the strength to keep going.

    I'm so sorry, cwtw. I also had a good cycle and perfect embryo. It leaves you bereft when it doesn't work. :( Take some time, and you and OH take care of each other. x
  • So sorry cwtw, it's hard when everything goes along as planned and it still doesn't work :( I'm still waiting for my review appointment to discuss what went wrong and what happens next, though I know they can't give me any answers other than "it's just one of those things"

    That's what they said when I had my follow-up after my BFN cycle. It was just luck and they wouldn't change anything for my second cycle (which I decided not to have). I found that part the hardest - it's all so controlled and scientific until transfer, and then it's pure pot luck as to whether the embie implants or not. It's just horrendous and I have nothing but admiration for everyone who goes through multiple cycles. :(
