Need reassurance

Hi everyone.

So I had egg transfer on Saturday. I’ve been feeling ups and downs in this 2ww. Does anyone know the success rate of a 4AA blastocyst with me being 34 and having endometriosis. I’m threatening a bit. I know no one will know exactly as everyone is different. But I’m a bit anxious and nervous that pregnancy won’t happen. I was told I have a 80% chance of success. But if I’m honest I’m waiting for a bleed. Ever since Saturday I’ve been checking every time I go to the toilet. Like is this normal?

Also earlier I was cooking beef mince and vegetables. Honestly the smell of it was making me gag. To the point I had to leave the kitchen. I ended up eating a chicken salad.

I’m just confused right now. Can anyone just reassure me please xx thank you xx

I’m 29 with unexplained infertility and with a 4AA my doctor said a 50-60% chance but I think it may vary depending on the clinic. Hoping it works for you x

Thank you, I’m in the minority though as most people do have a healthy baby and don’t miscarry and hopefully that’s where you will be too x

Oh bless your heart. Thank you so much xx

Everyone goes through this up and down emotion during the 2ww. You have to focus on positive thoughts - it's hard but why choose to focus on negative? If you think about it like that. Nothing you will do can change the outcome, everyone is petrified and on knicker watch all the time. The pessaries make it feel like af has arrived a few times a day. It's awful and there is nothing you can do other than just hope for the best, visualise the little embryo snuggling in and think of the pains as your body moving and settling into pregnancy, the hormones kicking in and making you feel queezy/ increasing your sense of smell. All of the above.

Good luck and hang on in there xx

Camillage I know your right. I’m just in limbo land atm. I truly want this to work. Not just for me but for my partner also. I feel awful if it didn’t work as he can’t conceive naturally. I honestly feel like I’m letting him down. I’ve been pregnant so I know the signs. But I’ve only known from 6 weeks on. I feel like I have our future in my hands and I can’t control the outcome. It’s awful. My partner keeps on talking to my belly and saying “hang on in there mate”. I just don’t wanna break him with a bfn. I guess I’m just trying to find a light in the 2ww. Thank you so much hun for your comment I really appreciate it xx

It's just 2 week wait craziness hon. There's no way to know and symptoms can go either way. Why not focus on all the sh*t that still needs doing before Christmas?!?! I bet that way the time you have left to wait will seem really, really short hahaha

Keep your chin up - this time last week you were doubting you'd even get this far so things are going well and it's better for you to stay positive xxx

Miss saopaulo your right also. But tbh I so exhausted atm. I don’t have the energy to do anything. I don’t know if it’s the drugs from stimulating, the process of it all or me getting over being so rushed off my feet from work as I’m a post woman.

Your 100% right with what stage I was at last week. Just positive thinking I guess ladies xxx thank you hun I appreciate it xx

The 2ww drives you crazy. As someone else said you are on constant knicker watch and you keep expecting to see blood. However, I had no bleeding last time and a BFN and some people have had bleeding and had a BFP so you really never know until test day. You just have to go with it. Just make sure you drink lots of water to keep yourself fully hydrated ( if you are dehydrated the last place the body will hydrate is the uterus it will go to other vital organs) and it is recommended you drink at least 100ml of water for each hour you are awake during the 2ww. Keep off Google it just scares you and is not accurate as we are all different and try and stay positive. I'm due to start my 2ww again and dreading it but it's got to be done. I have everything crossed for you 🤞 xx
