2ww symptoms and frustration

Hi everyone. I’m 6dp5dt my first fet. On Sunday evening - 4dp I had a very small bleed - noticed only when I wiped and tiny amount of blood browny. Before that I had some period pain and twitching pulling type pain. Nothing more. Then yesterday afternoon I got the worst headache ever with nausea like migraine and had to go bed at 630pm. Today I’m still a bit nauseas. I feel like my period is coming and am exhausted. I’m due to test on Saturday. Has anyone else had really bad headache?

I haven’t had a headache but I did with my last BFP and also had spotting 4-5DPT (nothing this time though). Fingers crossed it’s positive for you!! I test Saturday too xx

Hi, dear, do not worry, because spotting is absolutely normal thing, happens with many IVF-ers. Spotting might mean that embryo trying to implant in to your uterus, and it may cause a bit of bleeds. And about your symptoms, which looks like your menstruation is soon...don't take them serious...I had all the same, my belly was sore, and I felt that something is rolling inside, just like before my days, my boobs became sore too....but my test showed positive, so don't worry...let's hope that it embryo implanting, knocking his mothers door)))) good luck to you, and try to stay positive

I am on the 2ww too. I have 3 babies already through ivf and this cycle I am using one of our remaining frosties. My first pregnancy I had zero symptoms. Not a twinge, not a head ache. Nothing. The second two pregnancies I had quite significant bleeds. So I would try not to worry. Spotting is often a very positive sign. This time I am 4dp5dt and am having a lot of cramping particularly yesterday. You would think I could remember the previous 2ww but I can't your brain goes to fog. I can't remember any of the previous 2ww symptoms. The 2ww is definitely the toughest bit of the whole process. All the best X
