Day 3pfbt

[Devj]

Sooooo I’m day 3 post frozen blasto transfer and slowly driving myself mad. I’m soooo tired, have on and off cramps and stabbing pains, on and off sore boobs and felt slight sickly this morning. All these side effects of the pessaries as well as early pregnancy signs (been reading the pessary leaflet over and over...!) so not feeling overly positive really. Test day is a week on Wednesday 😩

Pointless post really just wanted to let out how I was feeling.

Got the rest of this week off so may be on here quite a bit killing time as time is going soooooo slowly! I swear my transfer was weeks ago not on Friday just gone 😢

Wishing everyone else luck and postive thoughts which I could do with myself! xxxxx

The two week wait is hard work. Try not to symptom watch, stay off google, keep positive and keep busy! Good luck lovely Xxx

Thanks for your reply Sarah! Since I posted that yesterday my symptoms have almost completely disappeared 🙁 apart from a stomach ache and deep period-pain like aches not cramps or twinges (if that even makes sense). Driving myself mad honestly!

I’ll try take your advice and stay off google and stop symptom watching so much. Trying to stay positive 🙂

Thanks again 😘 xxx

It definitely doesn’t help symptom watching. I had hardly any symptoms this time round and got my first bfp so I really don’t think you can tell. I drove myself mad googling too and it just ended up upsetting me and stressing me out. I went back to work this time too and found keeping occupied really helped xxx

I did toy with going back to work but I didn’t on my last successful cycle until after OTD and my o/h insists we try and do everything (as best we can with a toddler at our feet..!) same as last time.

I can’t really remember last time, kicking myself for not keeping a little diary.

Congratulations on you BFP by the way , how lovely. Hope you’re having a stress free pregnancy xxx

Aww how lovely you already have a toddler, I love ivf success stories! It gives us all hope. It been a bit stressful so far for us with a bleed early on but we’ll be 16 weeks tomorrow so we’re getting there. Will just be relieved to get to the 20 week scan. I don’t blame you and your OH wanting to do everything you can. I’d had two failed cycles and the first time I took a week off work, the second we went away on holiday after et so this time we carried on as normal and it worked so you never can tell. The only symptom I had before the bfp was feeling a bit dizzy a few days before OTD xxx

Aaw sorrh to hear about your bleed, keep aiming for that 20 week scan - soon be here! Well I say that but how slow does time go when you’re undergoing fertility treatment or are pregnant? But when you go on holiday it flies by?!! Baffling!

I work part time but it is pretty stressful and have to carry heavy files up 4 flights of stairs so decided (rather than having to tell people) I’d just have it off again and see what the outcome is when I go back. Due back in work on OTD 😳

It does go so slowly! We’re toying with the idea of paying for a private scan because I don’t think I can wait another 4 weeks. Keep me posted, will have everything crossed for you! x
