Embryo transfer

I am in day five of a 5 day blastocyst transfer. I felt a little cramping yesterday afternoon. Since, I do not feel anything, no cramping, no bleeding as if nothing has happened to my body. I wonder if it indicates the implantation is not successful.

Good luck. It's so difficult as symptoms vary between each person and each pregnancy but we had no symptoms and got a positive (though later ended in missed miscarriage). Not too long to wait. lots of luck to you Xx

Try to not work about symptoms. You would be worried if you did have a bleed or more cramps. I am sure it will work and your symptoms will start soon. It’s still early days.

Thank you so much. I did feel something going on in the low abdomen, feeling a bit nauseous after midnight the following day. Now I dont feel anything once again. You are so right. I should not get caught into symptoms too much. Just go as it flows. Thank you again xxx

Her, I know it's hard but please don't over analyse symtopms. I am 16 weeks pregnant and had I not seen it on the scan I wouldn't believe it as have had NOTHING. After my first transfer I had sore boobs. That ended in a miscarriage. 2nd I had nothing and was convinced if hadn't worked and it has! Relax and wait until test day!

Like Weareback2 I too have had nothing and now 14 weeks pregnant. Maybe soMe tiredness later on but certainly after my ET in that 2ww and up till my 7 week scan I was convinced the preg tests were all lying and that the scan would show nothing. Symptomless pregnancies are a thing and some ladies are very lucky to have that. Don’t think to much about it. There are no rules as to what you should Encounter or shouldn’t, and very lady is different. Have faith and sit this two weeks out filled with positivity. Please do not test before your test day either, it’s simply not worth the anxiety xx

Thank you so much for sharing this. I got caught up in symptoms too much as it seemed every page of website I search about this topic mentions the symptoms. I trust what you said. Thank you again xxx

I never had any symptoms when I did FET, and I did it 4 times, the second was ectopic pregnancy, and the last one I'm pregnant now 36 weeks. None of the FETs, pregnant or not, I had symtoms. Try to relax, and good luck!

I am also 5dp5dt.

Day 2 I had the tiniest amount of pinkish discharge followed by a teeny weeny, brown, amount of what looked like old blood.

Since then - nothing (maybe a couple of twinges but not sure, could also be my imagination!)

I feel pretty much completely normal like nothing has even happened. It’s a very odd feeling.

I am also being consumed with negative and a few positive thoughts and what if’s and googling like crazy!

I took a home test yesterday and today, both BFN which I was expecting anyway as I know it’s far too early. I just couldn’t help myself!

My OTD is this coming Monday 15th June.

Good luck to you in your journey and I wouldn’t sweat the symptoms or lack of.

Every woman will have a different story to tell of their IVF and TWW journeys and all that in between.

Best of luck. I do hope you get your baby wish. Until then take care of yourself physically and mentally 💗
