[Belle-7-]

Stabbing pains / period pains not a lot but present on and off throughout the day. Anyone else had to sign please share. TWW is too much for anyone I don't know how anyone copes. Xxxxxx

Good luck with it all belle..

I can't give advice on wots normal and wots not.. Never been though ivf .. however I have read stories on here where some wonen do experince period type pains and still get a postive.. It could be your ovaries ..they've Gone through a lot recently.. Bound to cause you discomfort.. hopefully it'll settle down soon.. It's quite safe to take paracetamol..

Wishing you all the very best with it all .. and hope time passes quickly for you..

i found it a little easier to let go of some of the control and say to myself what was going to be will be and there is nothing at this stage that I can do.. its really hard but I found it helped not drive me mad. Its alittle bit like that now worried about the first 12 weeks of pregnancy and worrying about miscarriage - its like a very long 2 ww. the cramps etc are normal, its all the drugs and your uterus changing, try not to worry - I know its really hard..

Belle hang in there. Like nellynel says you have no control. Unless something extreme happens your body will be doing its own thing. I struggled with the thought of this 'invisible' process going on while I was still carrying on with my normal day. I talked to my mum and husband a lot but also tried to just be me.

Whatever happens you have got this far and that's a huge thing in itself.

Do not test early - it is just not worth it.

Trust me that day will come and you will be so nervous you will wish it hadn't come!

Look after yourself... X

It's so hard to say either way, but it could be implantation....... Try to keep busy rather than sympton spot, so much easier said than done!!!! I'm having EC either Wed or Thurs now so it will be me next week!!!! Good luck x

Belle-7 everyone's body is different but when I was on the 2ww I had dull period pains from day 2 of transfer but as it means so much to us we feel every ache and pain and start to panic, if you look back I asked exactly this question when I was waiting. As jsth1979 said when the test day came I was so nervous i wanted another day! I am now nearly 6weeks pregnant and waiting for the next 6weeks to pass so I can tell the world the waiting just doesn't stop lol! I still get cramps some really painful some just dull aches its down to our bodies changing and preparing for what's going on. Stay positive and I know its easier said than done but try to relax good luck not long left xx

Ladies you all understand and this is so fantastic thank you so much for your reply is going to get me through I know it will. You're absolutely right about wishing for one more day I was thinking about this yesterday I have to test on the 22nd I don't want that day to arrive. I also agree with the "indivisible" process because we'll never know. I when out yesterday to stratford fair didn't go on anything I just relaxed walk round enjoy the atmosphere and the day passed very quickly very enjoyable day with the family. I have a couple of days planned this week so something to look forward to. Wishing you ladies all the best wherever you are in your cycle I hope everything goes well love to you all and thank you. Xxxxx

Hi belle, I would give the advice of " just try to relax and try not to symptom spot" but easier said than done! I'm the world's worst! I just kept myself busy at work this time round and shopping at weekends I've even made myself a member of ancestry so I can do my family tree. I now have to wait untill the 28th for my first scan and it seems like forever. When I got a positive this time things felt different, deep down I knew about 5 days after transfer even though I had all the latest symptoms of pms. I felt like I had a mild bug and it's still lingering and yes it's the best bug ever! Good luck and keep positive my fingers and toes are crossed for you xx
