Good even you beautiful women! Im just really worried and need a bit of advice? So I am day 12 after egg transfer and today I have had period like cramping, serious bloating my stomach is rock hard which usually if I was starting a period it's usually full of water due to water retention, I also have some constipation but I have not been spotting or no blood at all! I'm so worried! Test day is Friday and iv been quite positive until now getting the pains have anyone else ever experienced this? I also have extremely sore boots but I know all this could be the cyclogest pesseries side effects.

Thank you in advance xxxx

Good morning,

I don't have any words of wisdom I am afraid but just wanted to say you are not alone. I am slightly behind you at 9dp5dt, my clinic have told me to test tomorrow. I have had no symptoms really, other than some twinges here and there. I promised myself I would not look for symptoms this time, but I have then got worried when I have nothing obvious. I was so convinced yesterday that it had not worked that I cried my eyes out to my Mum, then got concerned that I had messed things up by being stressed! 2ww is horrible, I started off thinking positively then I got more anxious this week. I am dreading the test!The symptoms you have sound like it could be positive signs, or the medication. Unfortunately until we do that test we don't know and that is so hard!

Good luck to you, hoping we all get our BFPs xx

Thank you xx

I had all these symptoms... I tested from 8dp5dt and had a positive which got darker. I didn't get in any way excited until Hcg bloods but it was peaceful for me to know things were headed in the right direction. Wishing you all the best ☘ x

I had the same 7-8 days after transfer. Seriously strong cramps. I was so worried it’s period pain. Was convinced something went wrong. 2 days later I got bad nausea. this Monday I tested BFP 🙂
