Feeling concerned

beginnerAdviceNeeded profile image

So I had a 5dt and now on day 7, Iv been pretty poorly since transfer day. But feeling much brighter today. Iv read a lot of people post about implantation bleeding. And some experience it at this stage. However Iv not. Iv had headaches, cramping and heart burn. Just wondering if it’s common to not experience some bleeding?

Wishing you all the beat of luck. Test day Friday however that’s the day I’m also due back to work, and with everything going on I may test Thursday just to be sure as I work in a nursing home. What do you think? Xx

Hi beginner. I wouldn't worry too much about implantation bleeding, as most of the spotting etc that is experienced comes from the trauma of having the womb manipulated and instruments used during the process of egg collection and embryo transfer. Cramping if often down to the womb settling back down for the same reasons. Have a rest when you can and keep safe, and I shall be thinking of you.

Glad you're feeling brighter today. I have also felt exhausted and ugh since transfer. Think it's all these drugs! Symptoms vary by person and by cycle, so don't worry about that. I don't think I had implantation bleeding on my bfp cycle. While I think testing early can cause unnecessary heartache, I can understand testing on Thursday if you're back at work in a nursing home on the Friday. Protect the embie at all costs! I'm not even going in to a shop until I get my bfp! Although I may need to go in to work to get some IT stuff....

I'm 7dpt too, no bleeding or spotting here. I've been having cramping on and off since straight after transfer. Don't worry 🤞 I've been testing early already, so I couldn't tell you not to!! 😂 Thursday would probably be fine xxxx

Thank you all for your comments. This platform is so amazing! It’s helped me through the journey as I’m sure it as you.

Chel91 what was your results for testing early? Was it worth it? 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 I hope so 😘😘

My test day is Friday also! I did not have any bleeding and have had severe migraines! I have tested positive last 3 days!! Stay strong!!!

i had cramps and heartburn but no implantation bleeding. It does not happen to each and every one of us.Dont doubt yourself. Give yourself time and take it one day at a time. We all look for signs but in reality it is a waiting game. Just be patient.
