Getting a bit stir crazy now! There's only so much catch-up you can watch! Been a bit more active last couple of days but getting more anxious as OTD approaches. 4 days to go! How r u girls coping?

I'm 5dp 5dt and going crazy, I think every twinge or sign is bad. I've had low cramping since egg transfer. The night after transfer I had excessive cramping and a shaky leg. I've been constipated and now gone the opposite. This is my first ivf cycle and I hope it works as I'm approaching 40 . I'm dying to test but there's no point x

Cramps aren't bad I had them last cycle and went on to get a BFP (unfortunately miscarried). I'm sure it's a good sign or just the progesterone who knows! Fingers crossed for you I'm too scared to test early I don't no how anyone dare! Good luck! Xx

Am 11dp5dt and am struggling to sleep... all I can think of if peeing on a stick Monday morning and calling doctors to go for scan and blood tests. I tested at 7dp5dt and it was BFP. I just need to see it... and get doctors to say - congratulations you are pregnant... until then am still afraid all will be taken from me...

Hi. I've been working all the way through mine and I'm a teacher so during the day I tend to put it to the back of my mind. I wouldn't say I've had loads of symptoms and every one can be attributed to the Cyclogest so I'm just plodding along really. I've been extremely tired for the last few days so have been in bed really early. I've also had a headache but that could be put down to the heat. There's been some nausea and heartburn too but other than that not a great deal. I have low expectations from this cycle as our embies were so low grade. I am expecting a bfn when I test on otd but obviously would be thrilled if it was a bfp. That's how I'm coping. Good luck to you Hun. Xxx

Probs the best idea as ur distracted! My jobs quite hands on so I thought it best to take the month off as I'd only be worrying I'm doing too much. Agreed lol! The pessaries mess with your mind! I feel a little dizzy this morning hope it's a good sign! Don't loose faith I had two poor grade embies last time and they both implanted apparently its a lot to do with your body grabbing them too! And lots of women go on to have health babies from low grade embies 😘Good luck! Xx

I think we should find some kind of "hobby" for such periods of time.

I find myself in knitting smth for future child.

Started with socks for husband, just to practice.

P.S.: at the same time, you mind yourself on the fact that the child is sure to be born
