NO symptoms after 5 day Embryo transfer

Hi All,

I am in day 4 after a 5 day embryo transfer from a donor eggs.

The first 2 days i felt so symptoms (lower back pain, light cramping on lower left stomach, bloating, tiredness, sensitive bloated breasts). Evening of day 2 after the transfer, I got more than normal lower back pain, I went to sleep. The next morning suddenly all my symptoms disappear. My breasts feel a less bloated and sensitive, I feel nothing - no cramps, no bloating. I'm panicking if I lost the embryo :( I have to wait another 10 days for the official preggie test. uuuugh.... so long....

Did anyone have a similar experience? Should I do a home preggie test, scared to do something unreliable and have the wrong result and go into more panic.

PLS HELP :)

Hi, I was very much the same in that I had niggles and twinges the day of transfer and the following day and then not much else. I got my BFP 2 days ago on OTD!! Don't be disheartened by lack of symptoms, equally people who get lots worry that it's AF on the way! Stay positive, you got this💫💛

Thank you for your words. I started to get some nausea and slight sensitivity in my breasts. I’m on day 7 post 5dt. Am more calm and will wait for test on 26th 🙂

Hi I am the same as you. Initially had cramps, bloating and back pain. Day 5 I woke up with no symptoms - belly completely flat and even lost nearly 2kg of weight.I am convinced it hasn’t worked . Too scared to test early as least there is hope when you don’t know. Reading other women’s experiences I think there is no way of telling what’s going until official test day! Let’s hope it works out for both of us. 🍀

Today is my 9th day post 5dt Last night I felt strong cramps and now also a bit.

I read this is part of the implantation phase. Fingers crossed I have good news soon 😊

I had really bad cramps and 1 tsp blood dat before OTD. Got BFN. I knew I killed my chances by not resting. Next time will rest 48 hours after ET 😭
