Ugh. Same again 😢

So I’m 2pt5dt and my symptoms are EXACTLY the same as my last BFN. Constant cramping and terrible backache. It’s like my body is desperately trying to expel! I just wondered whether anyone had experienced the same symptoms with different results? I need something to hold on to for these next 10(!) days. Thanks 🙏

Thanks lollypop how long did your cramps last for? X

in reply to drinathan

They were a few days after transfer on and off! For a few days too! Not persistent but strong and lasted maybe 10 or so minutes x

Ah mines all day. Congratulations BTW 👍👍👍

I know it’s difficult but try not to think negative, it’s a uncertain stressful time but keep remembering how far you’ve come to get to the 2ww you’ve done so well. Sending lots of luck to you for test day xxxxx

Constant cramping is not a bad sign. You will get that on the pessaries as well. You’re only 2dp5dt give you body time and try to think positive. I know it’s very hard but thinking negatively this early will only cause you heartache for the next 10 days. Try to enjoy being PUPO!! I have 1 more day til OTD and I’m trying to enjoy every minute of being in oblivion 😘😘

Well done you. I haven’t made it to otd for my last 3 cycles but your way is the best way. 🤞 for tomorrow for you xx

All the symptoms are the same and no two people are the same. Please try to stay positive. Wishing you all the best xxx

I’m 3dp3dt and have had cramps on and off since transfer day. Was told they are a combination of my ovaries still aching after ec and progesterone.

Good luck. Mines a fet but am happy to blame the progesterone 🤞

Although all of my bfns (3) have felt eerily similar at 2dp I was still full of hope so early on in those cycles. I think it’s far too early to compare. Days 5/6/7 seem to be the deal breakers for me, the stage when I know or I don’t. It’s still so early.. Good luck xx

Tugs what changes for you around 5/6/7? How do you know?

On the two bfps I had I began to experience af type cramping only milder. On my first bfp I also had spotting on day 6/7. Didn’t have any spotting on my second bfp though xx

Hi there, I’m in the dreaded 2ww too! I’m on day 10 and I’ve had my usual period symptoms e.g heavy tum/twitches since day 5. I haven’t experienced these in either my first or second attempts...so who knows!

I know it’s really hard, but you gotta keep the faith 💕 xx

Thanks. I wish you the bestest of luck x

Hey lovely.

I’m on my first round of clomid & I have endometriosis ( recent laparoscopy to treat it was in July)

I’m in the 2WW & 6 days post Lh surge & I had some twinges & mild cramps since. It’s so hard know what it is going on! Whether it’s my endo ( hope not) or something else! With clomid o have no way to know if the egg & sperm have even met!! My temperature has dipped this morning & no twinges or cramps now 🤔 2WW is hard going & I imagine with IVF it must be even harder...

When I feel like it’s not worked I make up a “back up plan “ & knowing I have other options makes me feel a bit better & hopeful. For now I agree with others I’d remain hopeful until you have a reason not to be, that’s what I’m doing until period comes will be hopeful.

I had a chemical pregnancy last year & I had no symptoms at all when I conceived, literally felt like my period was coming. My sister was the same when she fell with my niece ( happier story of hope!) Pms vs early pregnancy symptoms are the same & impossible to tell apart. Well I couldn’t anyway!

Good luck for OTD really hope it’s a BFP xoxo

Thanks. Totally agree with the 'back up' plan. This was meant to be our last go but I think we will go one last time again!

Hi, I am also on the tww, I am 2dp 5dfet. I have had a lot of cramping (transfer was tough though so could be part of it), can't get comfortable or sleep for very long. I don't remember having this much pain on my first transfer so each time seems to be different. Fingers crossed we get our BFPs, good luck xxx
