2ww how do people cope!!!!

[Alwaysfullofhope]

Hi All,

So I'm currently 4 days into this wait, however I dont actually have to wait two weeks I'm at the hospital on Wednesday of a blood test therefore only 10days!!

I just cant cope with this, it is absolute torture... I feel so lucky to be at this point we had a day 5 embryo transferred it wasnt quite a blastocyst however was showing signs it will be... I had cramps that's a sign but then it's not, I've got sore breasts that's a sign but then it's not, I felt a little bit nausiated that's a sign but then it's not driving me CRAZY!!!!

I was told by all the doctors and nurses that my womb is top dollar (if that's even a thing) and my doctors words (he has a wierd way with words) my womb is "gagging" for an embryo!! But then I'm thinking what about if it stopped growing?! We got two embryos which fertlized and unfortunately on day 6 my other litte embryo stopped growing so if it happened with my other embryo why would it bot happen to this one!!

I just need to know, the not knowing is absolute torture.. I'm so sorry for the massive rant I just am going stir crazy..

Is anyone else in the same boat or is it me just been dramatic!

Thanks ladies!!

Yes I did a top quality one.I had a few others but they were not good enough to freeze.I was gutted.😢

This is my second round so it all lies on the one we had put back.

Oh really well that's something positive isnt it been a top quality one?! I have no idea what quality mine is? All I know is it was showing signs of a blastocyst!!

What happened in your previous cycle?

We got another top quality embryo last cycle but it was a BFN so I am scared history will repeat itself.🙄

I think the 2ww is same for everyone! 😱a total nightmare 🤯🤪 time passes so slowly unless you fill your days with bits and pieces. Google is your worst enemy so STOP that right away! 🤬

Find stuff to read, places to go, people to meet, meal out, fresh air walks ( gently ) Netflix movies, a good book etc 🤗

Some of us also do mindfulness colouring / word searches etc which help to calm the brain as you focus on other stuff. 🤓🤓🤓🤓

Write things down for each day! ☀️😎🎉

You will survive , just like we all did. Don’t test early ! I read of even more torture from people who do that 😱

Get the mindful ivf app and the Calm app to cool your jets when you get ants in your pants 🐜 🤣

Breathe deep in and out until you feel better!

You can do this!

Hold tight 💖

Hugs of understanding 😎

Best of luck lovely 😊 my only advice is please do not test early! Yes it’s not easy but believe me you don’t want the disappointment of testing early.

Just look after yourself and we all sending you positive vibes xx
