Progesterone vs BFP? 8dp5dt UPDATE

It wasn’t the Progesterone!! Got our BFP ☺️. Now 16dp5dt, they date it as 5 wks. But some old brown blood discharge and cramps, will give the clinic a shout tomorrow just for reassurance.

So this is our first FET, I am noticing some differences between this and our first fresh cycle.

Automatically better so far since last cycle as with that I started bleeding intermittently from 7dp5dt.

This time the main differences I have noticed are permanently ‘full’ feeling. Like I’ve had a 3 course meal all day.

I am roasty toasty hot 24/7, my appetite fluctuates, I have a stuffy runny nose and lots of mucus. Quite thirsty and this going to loo more. This time also I’m noticing the most difference in my cervix. When I’m administering my progesterone pessaries, definitely different to the last times I’ve used them, even different within a week. It’s very soft, spongy and high, seems to have a higher temp too.

I don’t know what to make of it all, test day is 21/11. It’s the whole hope vs reality battle.

I’m in a similar place to you- although just a few days behind. Unfortunately we have no idea what is reality because of all the medication! All we can do is keep hold of the hope that it’s our time. Sending lots of luck and positive vibes your way. Xx
