Post BFN...how long after a failed FET should my period arrive? 🤔😩😕😖... Waiting is torture! 🙈

Hi ladies

I hope you're all ok?

After my FET was confirmed BFN 2 days ago on weds (at 12dp5dt), and having had brown spotting in the 2ww... It's now practically back to nothing and I'm a hormonal timebomb!!

This should make you laugh....

I cried yesterday at rice. Yes... RICE. It hadn't spilled on the floor or anything, it was just uncooked and in a bowl and I started crying. 🤣😬🤯 My hubby laughed and hugged me and I was half laughing but really crying too. And obviously needed it.

I know it's just my weird hormones and I'm bound to feel a bit up and down after the failed cycle and losing all of our 3 frosties.... but I have been "OK" as I was prepared. I just need all of these hormones out of my system, and especially want to bleed and not feel bloated, even though I know it'll be mammoth. I'm not even getting much in the way of period pains.

I have been taking progynova (oestrogen) 3 X a day and cyclogest (progesterone) pessaries 3 X day throughout my IVF cycle and 2ww and stopped 2 days ago on OTD. How long do I have to wait to get this all out, and for a bleed to start? It's so unfair to have to wait for it when I need to move on! Can't my body just do one thing properly please! 🙈

But seriously... Rice?! 🤣🤣

Lots of luck to you all ladies 🍀🤞🍀🤞🍀🤞🍀🤞Xxx

Mine took like 6 days hun I know how you feel though feels like you can't get back to normal. I cried because my daughter wouldn't sit with me (she is 18 months old ffs lol). Stupid hormones are almost the cruelest part Feel better xxx

Mine came today just 2 days after stopping the medication so I’m feeling grateful coz I know what you mean about needing it and wanting to get the hormones out 🤞 it comes soon for you xx

[Kat9lives in reply to Core]

Thanks lovely, hope you're ok? Mine has now arrived thankfully!! Xx

[Core in reply to Kat9lives]

I’m ok, just feel a bit flat really but hopefully that’ll pass. Glad it’s arrived xx

It took 2 days for mine to kick off which I am grateful for. Prior to it arriving I was reading older posts on here to see what others had experienced and 5-7 days is fairly common so I guess anything up to a week. Hope it comes soon xx

we are all in the same boat. I had my fet test yesterday, negative. the clinic were pretty shocked and tested me twice. I had a baby from the same round during a fresh 5det and I did everything the same. I had the scratch and all the drugs.

I want to go for round 4, but have to wait till the hormones have left!

short protocol worked for us on.our 3rd round, I took dhea for 12 weeks before.

I am starting it now and then will see how I feel next month. this rollercoaster kicks my was physically and mentally and not sure it's fair to.my toddler ☹
