Trying to stay poaitive

8dp5dt spotting some blood yesterday but didn't come to much so I wasn't too worried as they have said it can be quite normal, today I've woken up and quite a bit more blood, it is between bright and dark red and I've had a couple of twinges this morning, again I've heard this can be normal but not I'm starting to worry, such a helpless feeling. You quite often hear that women don't even know their pregnant becuase they continue to have "periods" which is actually the process of becoming pregnant so I'm hoping this is the case. Fingers crossed 🤞

Fingers crossed for you xx The IVF two week wait is horrible...

I'm 8dp3dt and today I woke up to spotting. So I've had a few tears today and been in a right grump. But then read, like you, it can be normal. Told my clinic about this and other symptoms I'm having (bad bloating and indigestion, early morning wees, tiredness etc etc) and they didn't really say much! Xx

I didn't think to notify my clinic of anything, my symptoms have been very similar to yours, and sounds like they only want to hear from you in your test day so I'll hold out, my test day is the whole two weeks, it's feels so long, will be testing on Monday x

I only told them as I was getting abit worried about being really bloated still and having continuous cramps.....She asked what other symptoms I had so I emailed the full list!! Including going light headed last night! Fun and games...

My test day is on Saturday.... Good luck to us both xx
