So I am now 4dp5dt. I really concerned, myself and partner have not really stopped arguing and have got very stressed on a couple occasions. I am really worried that I have jeopardized my little embryo because I can’t control my up and down hormones.

Hi love. Sorry that you and your partner are having arguments and getting stressed. This won't have an impact on your little embie, though, it won't care if you're arguing or not. Separately, if pregnant women/women going through IVF were expected to control their hormones, noone would ever have a baby! Try not to worry. I know it's hard. I had a hot water bottle the other night and I got too hot, and I worried that might have an impact. It's hard not to scrutinise everything we do. xxx
My husband and I had an enormous row the evening of ET and I had been working all day. I was so upset as I thought I had jeopardised my chance of it working so was even more stressed. This went on for most of the 2WW. We now have twin 2 year olds. ❤️❤️
Don’t lose hope.

Progesterone made me really bad tempered - could it be that? You both need to make allowances for the stress you're both under and the crazy amount of hormones you've been taking. Your body is simply not used to it.
So you'll probably find you snap and be irrationally and unfairly angry and moody.
It's not your fault and you probably won't be able to control it so he needs to bite his tongue a bit even when you're not being fair.
The fighting won't affect the embryo but it will make the 2ww that bit more hellish for you both so remember you're a team and remember why you're doing this. Best of luck xxx
