6 weeks following FET, no symptoms

Hi everyone! I know I probably sound like a crazy person but I just wondered if anyone else has experienced this? I should be 6 + 1 today I have my viability scan on Thursday and I just can’t help but fear the worst. I really don’t feel much different. And anything I have felt has been so mild I feel like it could be in my head or just due to the progesterone! I occasionally have SLIGHTLY tender boobs, the odd twinge and that’s about it. I sometimes feel tired but I’m not sleeping great due to over thinking or having to pee (again I have always had to get up to pee so this isn’t really any different for me) . I also did a clear blue digi at 5+1 and again at 5+4 and it still said 2-3!

I know that no one else’s experience will change my outcome but just helps to know I’m not alone in feeling out of my mind

Thank you :)

Hi Firstly congratulations on your pregnancy!

I am the same as you , I will be 6 weeks tomorrow following a fresh transfer, I have had hardly any symptoms since getting my bfp, I keep wondering if or when I will get any signs , the only thing I had was bloating before my test day , ever since nothing much , maybe the odd ache in my boobs but not constant & I’m usually tired in the nights anyway so I don’t think that’s changed much.

People have said to me it’s still very early on so plenty of time for all that to come & we are all different

I know how exactly how you feel & can’t help but worry , wishing you all the best for your scan. Mine is in 2 weeks I’m counting down the days X

Congratulations to you too!

I’m glad it’s not just me. You would think after knowing what being not pregnant feels like there would be more indicators when you were. Maybe not? Who knows. Just when you hear so many people having so many symptoms and you have practically none it makes you question everything. Hopefully we are just lucky (fingers tightly crossed)

I think waiting for this scan is worse than the tww! I didn’t realise actually getting a bfp would bring so much stress with it.

Best of luck to you too, I hope the next two weeks go quickly for you xx

Congratulations 🥰

I’m 5 weeks 3 days and also not feeling many symptoms... I did another clear blue test on Wednesday 4weeks 6days and it also said 2-3 weeks.

I’ve got my scan on the 16th and I’m really nervous for it.

I hope everything goes well for you xxxx

Congratulations to you too! Isn’t it just the worst waiting. My stomach just gurgles all the time, which I usually get before my period which is also making me nervous. Such a nerve wracking time.

Keeping everything crossed for your scan, not too much longer xx

Hi ladies, I want to put your mind at rest and say I had very few symptoms and I had my scan on Wednesday and everything was there including a heartbeat. I still have minimal symptoms now. At the min my boobs are a bit tender nothing major and food has been a bit of a struggle but that’s it. I did have 2 instances of brown discharge but they found fluid in my pelvis or something which they believe caused that.

The worst thing you can do is compare to other woman and read what symptoms you would expect to have. I also had no symptoms during my 2ww.

Try to stay positive and believe. I wish you all the luck for your scans xxx

Congratulations! I bet you were over the moon.

Yeah I know, it’s definitely best to try and ignore it all enjoy the moment and get on with it. I have been trying to keep that mentality but these doubts keep ebbing in and the lack of symptoms doesn’t help. Reassuring to hear it is the same or similar for others!

Thanks so much, good luck with the rest of your pregnancy xxx

Thank you! I would like to say the worrying stops but it doesn’t. There always something that’s why I am trying to go with the flow. It makes it harder when there is a lot less to do as I would have filled my diary to try and distract myself. 😂 xxx

Hi I had a fresh transfer back in October and was convinced it hadn't work. I felt nothing out of the ordinary.

I'm now 23 weeks and tbh I feel normal more days than I feel pregnant. 😁

I didn’t have no symptoms other than groin cramps. My breast tenderness started about 7-8 weeks still tender now, sickness started about 8-9 weeks, I even said to the clinic at 7 week scan no sickness yet. It got me good, even now.

The headaches started a little before the sickness. Try not to panic. Everyone is so different.

17 weeks and symptoms definitely still here and not easing for me xx

Hiya you’re definitely not alone. I am 6+4 and my scan is thurs too. I feel no real symptoms either. Same as you not sleeping great and getting up to wee at night, boobs look massive but not really sore and my sense of smell seems to be pretty sensitive right now but not much else and it’s making me paranoid. This is my second ivf pregnancy and was similar in the first so you would think that would reassure me but it doesn’t lol! Fingers crossed for your scan this week. Xx
