I had a FET done last Thursday 17th at 230pm so I’m technically 4 days past 5dt. I have had two put back one a 4AA blastocyst and a 3AB early blast. My symptoms so far are day 2/3 cramps and pinches on the right side on and off for two days . Today I woke with a really bad headache still hasn’t gone and slight twinges on the left lower side. I also have one sore breast could this be the progesterone I’m on those 3 times a day with the prognova 3 time’s a day. Just looking for some hope this is our second round of IVF.

Yes it well could be a reaction on progesterone. I've been told that paracetamol is safe to take during implantation period - but no other painkillers. 4AA is really good quality blastocyst. All should be well. Stay positive 😊

Hello thank you for your reply , I’ve been on the progesterone for 10 days so wasn’t sure if it would be that ? I have been looking to see if other ladies had headaches and got BFP some did some didn’t. It’s so confusing all of these symptoms, today as well as a headache I’ve had pains in one breast and low back pains on the left side like shooting pains . Not sure what to think it’s too early but it’s a mind game x

Everyone's symptoms are diferent.

At some point during 2ww my breasts got really big and then few days later went back to their usual size - small and with no sign of anything happening in my body at all. It was quite worrying, but I got my BFP.

Now, I'm waiting for 1st scan at 7 weeks. I'm still on progesterone, i. e. for 5 weeks now (from transfer day) - with 2 more weeks to go. I don't remember whether I had a headache or not during 2ww. I definitely had a pain in abdominal (on one side) and in my low back too.

The only thing that helped me not to worry too much is that i continuously was saiyng to myself: "until now all was going well and there's no reason for it to go wrong now."

I still feel very alert to every little thing I feel. Hope this alertnes will stop after I have a scan in 2 weeks time.

Good luck to us!😊

Hello thank you for replying to me , and congratulations on your BFP that’s fantastic . I feel the same as you did today I am 7dp5dt boobs don’t really hurt much today at all I have sensitive skin very red today and a heavy lower belly region. Last night I have a couple of pulling sensations up near my belly button but other than that I feel pretty normal . I still have to wait 4 days to test but I feel much calmer this time round just hope it’s good news xx

Hi Emma

I experienced cramps/twinges for the first few days and I always get a headache.

First successful cycle I wasn’t sure if it was down to the pessaries but I just did a Natural FET with no medication at all and I still got the headache and got a BFP. It’s always a good sign for me.

Wishing you lots of luck. Xx
