36 almost 37 ttc baby number 2 with PCOS - Going back in time

So not posted in a while and a little update from me...

Currently on CD17, first medicated cycle...

50mg clomid days 2-6. A few tracking scans last one on CD14 showing 2 mature follicles at 17.1mm and 17.2mm then two others one at 15mm and one at 16mm. Told me to cancel the cycle due to risk of multiples but advised them I wasn’t prepared to do that at £300 a cycle! I understand the medical issues associated but I couldn’t risk not at least trying! They agreed to give me a trigger shot and advised to administer it myself that evening with the view that I would ovulate in 36 hours roughly! I’m now up to 48 hours after the trigger shot! They also saw two hormonal cysts that are large but they weren’t overly concerned! Been Bd’ing for last few days now. I am stressing now that the trigger shot hasn’t actually worked and I haven’t ovulated! I’ve tested with opks since the trigger and all are peak but that’s likely to be the high level of HCG in my system.

other than a progesterone test 7DPO I have no other way of knowing if it did release or not... suddenly a tww has turned into a 3 week wait! It’s positive news that clomid helped me produce four good size follicles and the clinic stated I responded well to the medication!! Just hate the waiting game and trying not to overthink!

any words of advice greatly appreciated!

Hi hun and thank you...x

Back again… this time almost at the end of my tww of first ivf round.

stupidly tested at 10dp2dt and have a faint positive. This is my one and only embaby from my first round of ivf…

stressed… Evap or trigger (14 days past trigger shot) I did test with a different brand two days ago and it was completely negative

Thanks hun I really hope so x

So it was in fact an Evap. These tests are a pile of s**t!!

BFN at 11dp2dt I give up. Put your body through so much and for what… to lose a tiny bunch of cells that you know could have become your baby. I just can’t get my head around how difficult it is to know it was the start of life and yet again it’s gone

Bottom one is today… they shouldn’t be selling these test if Evaps have pink in them!

12dp2dt and we have a line…

came up within 20 seconds and no squinting for this one… hoping this is it OTD is Wednesday.
