The madness of the 2ww

[Waitingforourmiracle]

So I'm feeling pretty good about our 11 day 2ww and I'm not stressing yet although et was only yesterday. What I do notice though is that as soon as that embie was in me I became immediately protective of my belly. Stood in a packed McDonald's yesterday hands over belly incase anyone bumped me.

Then I noticed myself stretching a lot when I woke up this morning in bed and felt my tummy muscles when I stretched and immediately stopped for fear it could mess with implantation even though I know that's crazy! I guess you just want to protect that precious cargo for all it's worth

Aw I remember it well I was convinced it hadn't worked. Good luck and I hope you get your BFP xxx

I know exactly how you feel. I was always scared about turning over in bed coz my tummy muscles felt stretched. I still feel paranoid about it lol.

It feels so silly but you just want to protect your little embie. Hope it goes quickly for you xx

Ah I know how you feel, I had transfer yesterday too (first cycle) and I've got a terrible cough! The only cough I've had for years and it has to be now! I'm terrified all the tensing when I'm coughing is going to affect implantation!

It really is the most precious cargo though so no wonder we are slightly cautious!

Good luck xxx

Thank you resting up today before work tomorrow so am about to have a listen to my mindful ivf app then have a nap as I did not sleep well last night and my body needs rest to help that embie settle in x
