Again it's been a really long time since I last did a post. I've been doing a medicated FET treatment, which means I'm on HRT and the lovely cyclogest pessaries. Do you remember Curly and Larry our 2 lil frosties from our first IVF last September? Well they survived the thaw, went on to divide from 4 cells to 6 cells and were put back in me on the 2nd August.
Yet again I was on the 2 week wait, I tested last Tuesday 16th August, got a negative, well it may have been a really really faint line, like you had to squint to see it. Andy and I reckoned it was just a shadow and put it down as a negative. I rang the hozzy and said I'd got a negative. They said to stay on the drugs and test again on Friday. I thought all this was a waste of time and just dragging it out, but I did as I was told. So I tested again on Friday and, as you may have guessed by now, I got a BIG FAT POSITIVE! I am PREGNANT! After 7 years of trying including nearly 3 years of treatment we are going to be a Mum and Dad.... Aaaaarghhhh, we're still a bit shell shocked but soooo excited.
It's very early days yet I know, but I've never had a positive test before. We've got a scan booked for 1st September. Can't wait to see the lil un, or lil uns as the case may be...Yikes!
So what with that exciting news and having just spent a lovely weekend in a suite at The Lowry Hotel Andy and I are just about floating on air. we'd booked the weekend away as somethiong to look forward to after treatment and also as a belated wedding anniversary treat to ourselves. We celebrated our 9th Anniversay on 10th August. Wow, where does the time go eh?
Anyway, just had to share my news, fingers crossed all will go well. Just so chuffed we got this far, both of us had decided not to try and more treatment no matter what the outcome of this cycle was. It seems like someone or something finally decided to make our wish come true. :0)
