So today is our OTD - 13dp5dt - and we got a positive result!! Our little embryo is still going strong! πŸ₯°πŸ˜ I have never seen a positive pregnancy test - so even if I was hoping and I felt really positive - I am not really sure what I expected as I feel a bit shocked.

I know we are early and still many milestones to come, but so, so happy to have reached this stage πŸ₯°

Wishing everyone else on this journey the very best πŸ’—

Fab news you must be over the moon so far, I still have 9 days to wait and time has never gone so slowly, wishing you the best of ;luck for the rest of your journey x x x

I don’t think it has sunk fully in still, might take me a few days. Had to do another test this morning just to check πŸ™„πŸ₯° Used a digital this time and still said β€œpregnant”.

It is hard though - you want to be so happy, but I am feeling a little reserved still, in case it was all wrong.

Yes, I really struggled to start with, was feeling every little twinge and wondering what was happening. I think it was after about 7-8 days, I started getting a bit nervous about testing and at that point felt quite relaxed about waiting, I think I was just happy I had a few more days to wait first!!

Thank you so much πŸ™ - I got everything crossed for you and hoping this is it for you!! πŸ€žπŸ’›

Just out of curiosity, were you told to test on day 10 or 14, I've been told to wait for 14 days, seems like so long to wait when others are being told 10 days?It must be such and unbelievable feeling at the moment though :-)

Sparklylifeβ€’ in reply toBernie150781

Our transfer was 28/11 - we were told to test 11/12, so I think that is 13 days - I feel so lucky to have got here! Science is amazing πŸ₯°

Bernie150781β€’ in reply toSparklylife

Glad it not only me that's been told to wait so long but I will hang in there and not test early lol

Bernie150781β€’ in reply toSparklylife

Yes i'm feeling every little twinge too, never been so in-tune with my body, I just wish I understood what every feeling is, it does become quite obsessive though

Sparklylife profile image
Sparklylifeβ€’ in reply toBernie150781

Yes, you do - I think it is just natural as you just want to know - but your body needs time now and hopefully it will all sort itself out for you!! 🀞πŸ₯° I looked up everything to start with, but was reading so many mixed things and outcomes - so realised it was no point trying to analyse it - not for me anyways. Be thinking of you!

Congrats 🀰πŸ₯° please share some specific symptoms.

Sparklylife profile image
Sparklylifeβ€’ in reply toAnemona87

Thank you πŸ₯° It is slightly hard to share symptoms, because I felt when I was reading other people’s posts that these symptoms can mean anything and you really don’t know for certain. I think it must just be very individual. I have had mild cramping since the day after my ET and I still have that on and off. No spotting. I got very bloated after about 7 days - it has been rather uncomfortable to be honest, I just feel β€œfull” and now need to eat little and often - but I love to graze πŸ˜‚ so that is no issue! I have sore boobs, but I have had that since stim drugs, so can’t really say that is a symptom for me. One thing I have noticed though is my sense of smell has gone mad the last few days and is a little strange.

Just seen you have had your transfer - I wish you all the best πŸ€žπŸ€žπŸ’›

Fab news πŸ₯³ another milestone reached. I’m in for FET Thursday 🀞

Sparklylife profile image
Sparklylifeβ€’ in reply toDeep79

Thank you! Yes, so so early πŸ₯° and I fear this may be a long road with some happiness and worry all mixed together - so I know I am feeling realistic deep down, but choosing to stay very hopeful that this little embie can do it!

Wishing you all the best for your FET!! Hopefully the 2ww won’t feel too long for you and you get a positive outcome πŸ’›

Thank you sparkly. A friend of mine who went through multiple rounds of ivf (she has twin girls and a boy all U5!) always says take each day at a time, each milestone at a time, ivf a long road but will be worth it if we get the outcome we long for πŸ‘ΆπŸ» πŸ₯°πŸ₯°Do something nice for yourself and I find keeping yourself busy and the mind occupied (&away from google)

I suppose at this point all we can do is hang on to Hope! Take care & keep in touch. It’s so nice to have a community all in the same boat! πŸ₯°

Hi sparklylife Congratulations !!!! I am 11dpt2dt tiday and still negative on urine pregnancy tests . Was advised for bloods in 2 days time to check if pregnancy but is there any chance at all considering all UPT are negative . Thanks

Sparklylife profile image
Sparklylifeβ€’ in reply toHarley1977

I am not sure what is normal after a day 2 transfer, I am assuming you have to wait a bit longer perhaps as the embryo is still developing on its journey prior to any possible implantation. I got my fingers crossed for your blood test! 🀞 And thank you πŸ₯°
