Good day. After 2 failed IVF cycles FreshET . Positive on the 3rd trial. Had a scan at 6weeks 2days, twins good heartbeat. I'm now 7 weeks 3days still on progesterone without any symptoms. I'm scared. Is this normal? It's like I can't even stay happy after the good news on scan day.
7 weeks 3days twins no symptoms. - Fertility Network UK
7 weeks 3days twins no symptoms.
Don’t worry! I’m almost 19 weeks with twins. Have had zero symptoms all along - no nausea no sickness no sore boobs nothing! If it wasn’t for the massive bump and starting to feel them
Kick this week I wouldn’t know I was pregnant 🤣
Hello with your twins did you transfer two or one as I really want twin babies and starting transfer soon
Twins might sound like the dream but just be aware it’s really Bloody hard Physically - did a little walk with daughter to the park this afternoon and back and I’ve been in agony and in bed since I got back and I’m 19 weeks - it’s incredibly punishing on your body x
I transferred 3 fresh embryos.
Hello thank you for replying. Oh whaoo that’s good was this your first. I have had two losses and I want this third one to be the one so am looking for what to do to maximise chance wish you the best. I am a twin as well so it won’t be bad to have them too
I had 2 losses too. After that I took a 6 months cleanse break. No alcohol, no artificial sugars, 3x weekly exercise, no caffeine, no medication except my one a day pregnacare preconception. I also did fruit smoothies (I always add pineapple core) daily. Before I started my third cycle. I continued with all that and stopped on the day of egg collection. I got 8 viable embryos, transferred 3 and froze 5.
I had no feelings I was pregnant either for a very long time! I didn’t even get nausea! Or sore boobs! X
I’m a day behind you also with twins. I had my scan on Wednesday and was shocked as I thought I’d had a MMC as also v little symptoms. My boobs are big & I have terrible wind but I put that down to the pessaries. No nausea, literally nothing else, it’s my first pregnancy so v v weird! Try not to worry
I'm only pregnant with one baby (10 weeks) but exactly the same & no symptoms at all, my midwife has reassured me it's completely normal. I completely get how you feel, its only since I saw my midwife this week that I've just accepted im getting an easy ride and to just go with it and start enjoying my pregnancy. I won't lie though I will be relieved to get my 12 scan and to get confirmation everything is fine. Xx
Hey Debbie, I don't have many symptoms either but spoke to another lady that had twin girls a while back and she didnt have early symptoms either....apparently they do kick in eventually. I guess we're lucky so far!xx
My midwife said now I’m 19 weeks unlikely I’ll get any symptoms now - I do feel bad though when I go to the twins clinic at the hospital and lots of twin mummy’s to be are there looking green and sick as a dog 🤣 And i breeze in all cheery and feeling fine! X
Ha ha ha think you've had a very lucky escape!! I still cant get my head round the fact I have something in my tummy, never mind 2!🤣xx
It’s the strangest feeling isn’t it! Although I was in maternity wear from 8 weeks with a noticeable bump by 9 weeks (so prepare yourself! 🤣) so it became “real” a lot earlier than it did with my daughter who I didn’t get a bump with until about 20 weeks.
I feel very “pregnant” this time - physically it’s much harder - I’d say from about 12 weeks or so. At 19 weeks I walk to to do the school drop off and back but then pretty much on sofa rest for the rest of the day (I’m WFH) and the bump is very achey and sore if i do too much (which isn’t much!)
But I’m very petite - only 5ft3 and average weight (or was! 🤣)
My heart rate rockets doing the smallest activity - my Fitbit is very confused that I seem to be in fat burning mode 99% of the day but putting ON weight! 🤣
My twins are now 17 months old and I was worried that I had zero symptoms until it suddenly kicked in one day (I can't remember exactly when but I think it was 9+ weeks). I regret so much not making the most of the days I had no symptoms. It was horrendous! They will come eventually and if they don't, consider yourself very lucky 😉. Many congratulations!
I was nervous when I didn't have any symptoms but when they hit, they will hit HARD. Enjoy this time. I'm still vomiting at 19 weeks
I have a theory about ivf pregnancies because soooooo many of us don’t experience symptoms like the the regular people do. I think because we are already on such a high dose of hormones when we get pregnant we don’t feel the steep rise. 🤷🏻♀️
Just a little update. I went for a private US. Twins are doing fine. Little hearts beating strongly. Was just worried for nothing...hehehe. Thank you all. Some mild backache but nothing else. My bump is now visible.
Oh that's great news Debbie! How are you measuring? Im still trying to take the news in, I still cant believe that its true. Oh and you have a bump too, amazing! I take it you still don't have any sickness?xx
