I'm 3dp5dt (FET) and already feeling defeated. I just feel empty, like there's nothing in there at all. All my symptoms of Cyclogest before transfer have even disappeared! I know I'm probably having one of those mornings and hopefully my PMA will pick up but I just can't help feel like this ATM. Anyone else feeling this way?
Thank you for reading. Xx

Hi Sas1101, I am sorry you are feeling like this! I am a day ahead of you (4dp5dt FET) and it is horrible π my emotions are all over the place and constantly feeling that it hasnβt worked but we canβt give up hope! Are you having any symptoms at all? The only thing I have been feeling is period like cramps but I know thatβs Likely the cyclogest. Itβs still very early days so keep your chin up and I have everything crossed for you π€π» Xx
Hi Hayley, thank you for your kind words. I've got up from bed, and made some breakfast and already starting to feel a little better. It's just a rollercoaster! We are cycle buddies ππ When is your OTD? I will cross everything for you! π€π€
Ive had a few twinges and a few niggles in nipples but I've probably only noticed becasue I'm hyper aware. As you said it could well be the cyclogest. The rational side of me knows it's very early but you just have those momemts of despair at times. However, I'm going to stick on my big girl post pants and seize the day ππ€ͺ
Good Iβm glad youβve cheered up a little bit, I think we just expect to have some sign that it has worked or not because of what we have put our mind and bodies through during the whole ivf process!
My OTD is the 10th aug what about you?
We are cycle buddies if you ever want to PM me then please feel free we can compare symptoms ππ itβs these bloody period pains that are getting me down I tried to mow the grass yesterday but I felt like I was potentially doing some damage because the cramps were that bad!! (IVF brain) Xx
Thank you, it'll be nice to have a cycle buddy to compare symptoms π€ͺ My OTD is the 8th π€ but nurse said I could test on the 7th π€
Good on you for attempting to mow the grass! I would have been exactly the same given the cramps. Fingers crossed those cramps are a good sign for you π€
What are your thoughts on doing a little sun bathing? Xx
Thankyou πI never get why people get different dates to test?? I am actually on 3dp5dt I was counting the transfer day which I donβt think I should be π³ so we are actually on the same day I transferred Tuesday morning.
Hell yes!! I am currently on my sunbed catching abit of βοΈ It would be rude not to with this beautiful weather! Iβm trying not to overthink everything and do my normal stuff just in moderation!
Yes I always wondered about different timescales for OTD. Will you test early? So we are definitely cycle buddies. I also transferred Tuesday about midday.
Aww good, I wasn't sure what to do with the sun bit have just decided to come out and catch a few rays. The Vitamin D has got to be beneficial right? πππ
I'm feeling ok. My hubby just asked me how I'm feeling and I just said normal. He thinks that's a good thing π
Hi Sas1101 I too am 3dp5dt and feeling nothing. Yesterday i did have cramps starting in the afternoon but for me its too early yet for AF so I am guessing ti the Cyclogest but this morning I woke up and gone back to zero symptoms. So i have decided that i am going to enjoy this beautiful day and i am also going to have a McDonalds as not had one is ages trying to healthy etc and have a ME day!! Hope you are feeling more positive now xxx
Hi Jonesy, I've also had a few twinges over the last few days but today zilch. Nothing at all. Just said to hubby that the only reason I know they transferred our blast is because I was there π He thinks feeling this way is good so I'll go with that.
Good for you for enjoying the sun! How hot is it though?! I have a guilt secret...I also had a Macdonalds yesterday. I was so tired and couldn't be bothered to cook. Oh well, I don't feel bad about it all!! π
Hope that You day is going well. Fingers crossed for us π€π€π€ When is your OTD? Xx
Well who knows those twinges could be the egg settling in π€It was hit 32 degrees here according to the met office and now typical English weather itβs started to rain!
Yey to McDonalds and why not. I hope you enjoyed it. Itβs definitely the time if we have a food we want or something we want to do then go for it otherwise this is going to be an even more stressful 2 weeks.
Hi Jols. It certainly is a rollercoaster ride and a half. I promised myself after last fresh cycle I'd try to be rational at all times but easier said than done hey! My last cycle ended in a CP. I also had no symptoms leading up to BFP so trying to keep that in mind.
Great news you have a PGT blast on board. I also felt exactly the same as you yesterday. So nice to have another cycle buddies on board. I have everything crossed for you and sending lots of baby dust. Xx
Hey! Sorry you feel this way. Iβm also in my two weeks wait ( had a frozen transfer on Wednesday) I have no symptoms and one minute Iβm hopeful and the next Iβm so worried I want to cry....
Itβs not easy and we canβt know the result this early after transfer. Iβm hoping we all get BFP ππ
Hi Mara, you're right we can't know the result so we just need to plod along as best we can. It's such a rollercoaster. Hoping we get our BFP's and this tww is kind to us β€οΈ π xx
Hey lovely, itβs so common to feel like this, especially after the high of the transfer. After all the hand holding of the clinic you can definitely feel on your own with it. I had a few crappy days after my FETs. Not feeling anything at this stage is perfectly normal. Try to do something to distract yourself if you can (easier said than done) π xxx
Hi peanutchips, thank you so much for your kind words. I think I'd just woke up this morning and was having a wobble. I'm feeling a lot better now I'm up and pottering.l and got lost on a book for a few hours. I think it's not helping me having annual leave from work this week. You're so right about the high after FET and them suddenly feeling alone. Wishing you lots of luck and baby dust in your journey π xx
