Red blood 9dp5dt

Well as the title says I think I’ve just found out I’m out. Red blood today, not full flow or cramps yet but red is never good is it so assuming this is the start of the end. This is such a heartbreaking process. To now have to keep doing the pessaries and even after full flow wait until Friday and test just seems so cruel. Had really hoped to make it to test date without spotting, turns out no usual brown but straight for red! Don’t even know why I’m posting just feeling a bit heartbroken xxx

I can imagine it’s so hard to move on until you’ve had confirmation. And even then it would take lots of time. I wouldn’t rush your emotions. Thank you xx

Hey Elizabeth, I can’t begin to imagine how you are feeling. I am so sorry to hear what you are going through. Friday is a long wait especially with the way you are feeling now. Maybe you should do a test tomorrow and put your mind at rest. 10dp5dt is not early to test. I had my blood on 9dp5dt and I was called with good news. I then went and bought a clear blue test kit to just see for myself and when I tested at 10dp5dt it confirmed pregnancy. That’s how I know 10dp5dt is not to soon to test. Not sure if that would help you put your mind at rest instead of waiting till Friday. Thinking of you. Look after yourself xx

Thank You. Yes I think i’ll talk to my husband tonight about doing a test tomorrow morning as it would help us adjust rather than have this whole week or wondering and waiting for AF to show up. It’s encouraging that you got a reliable result at 10dp5dt. Thank you for your kind words xx

I’ve just read your posts Jen it seems we’ve had the same experience :-( i’m so sorry for your loss but thanks so much for reaching out. I guess in time we dust ourselves off and try again but right now I can’t even think of that. A large vino would be nice for now 😊 Xxx

I’m so sorry Elizabeth I really feel you and I know you’re upset and shock😔 but the thing is it’s not full flow so there is still hope, I heard people had red blood and got their BFP so try and keep your hope till your test day. 🤞🏻🤞🏻xx

Elizabeth86 in reply toAnna00

Thank you Anna. I’d love to remain hopeful and my husband refuses to think of this as the end yet but it’s so hard when it’s red. 2 years of red meaning the end has conditioned me I think! I will try though, thanks so much xx

I'm very sorry. On my first cycle I also got AF on 9dp5dt. I hated that I hadn't even got to do a test, it felt so cruel and I was so upset. I really feel for you. I was told that the pessaries should stop your period from starting so soon after your embryo transfer so I was advised to take prontogest injections in my bum this second round instead of the pessaries to get the progesterone into my blood much quicker. Maybe this is something that will be suggested for you for next time if you aren't pregnant on this round - they're not pleasant injections though! But I'm hoping the same thing doesn't happen to me on this round. I think it's best if you do a test tomorrow instead of having to cruelly wait. So sorry it's not worked - if that's the case xxx

I’m so sorry to hear you also started bleeding on 9dp5dt. It’s just a rollercoaster of emotions isn’t it? So far the bleeding hasn’t got heavier but is still there. Just another waiting game! I’m never sure how they work out your test date? Mine is 18 days after egg collection is that normal? Xx

Scarlett13 in reply toElizabeth86

Mine is also 18 days after egg collection but most clinics seem to give a shorter wait x

JULIETJAM profile image
JULIETJAM in reply toElizabeth86

Hey Elizabeth, I thought I should reply to this. Different clinics have different test dates. Not sure how they work it out. Mine was 14 days after EC, EC being day zero. In a natural pregnancy, one can know they are pregnant 14 days after fertilisation day 1 being the day of fertilisation and day 14 being the test date. That’s what my clinic said and that’s why my test was on 14dpEC.x

Elizabeth86 profile image
Elizabeth86 in reply toJULIETJAM

Thanks so much for replying. I had been thinking 14 days would make more sense in terms of a natural cycle. I am a bit worried about testing as if it was positive I’m not sure what this bleeding means.. it’s very light (spotting) at the moment but it was definitely red yesterday. Feels too late for implantation though at 9&10dp5dt... xx

I pray u feel better soon.. cant inagine how heartbroken u are feeling but try to remain positive..there is still some hope xx
