Day 2 transfer

[Gillian84]

I had a day 2 embryo transfer 2 days ago and I have really bad cramps already. I know this won't be implantation cramps but I feel like I'm out already. My treatment was cut short and we only managed to get 1 embryo. Does anyone have any success stories on a 2 day transfer to try and help me feel more positive again. TIA

Hi! My first time responding to anything on here! I had a 2 day transfer almost 3 weeks ago, and managed to get a positive result! We got 2 embryos but one didn't survive, so put all our hope's into this one.

I had stomach cramps but this was definitely to do with the cyclogest pessaries, took a while to get used to them. You're not out of the game yet, so just take it easy and see what that test result says in 2 weeks. Good luck xx

Hi roseApothecary. That's brilliant news congratulations. I was always warned about the TWW and when I was trying naturally it never phased me but the TWW in IVF is hell 😂 I hope your first scan goes well, and thanks for your message xx

Its really common to have cramps after ET, particularly on fresh cycles its often your ovaries shrinking back and your body just responding to all the drugs - if you are on cyclogest or similar this can cause cramps too.

I have been on this forum for a few years and have seen plenty of day 2 transfers. The 2ww is the worst but just try and think positive and try not to stress.. all you can do is give your embryo a calm peaceful place to implant and grow. Masses of luck xx

Hi Daisy1245 thanks for your reply, yes I am on 6 x utrogestan pessaries a day. I am really hoping its that or everything else settling down. I have had a transfer previously but not as early as 2 days. It just felt so early that I almost felt like I was out before it was put back in. I have been doing all the mindfulness and eating the right things etc so I just have to hope for test day 🤞thanks again x

How did you get on with your 2WW? Xx

Hi I had a BFN yesterday. Absolutely gutted. Another negative and another round with nothing frozen. Im going to give some clinics elsewhere in the country a call this week and see if there are any other tests that they do to improve my chances. I just don't know whether it's time to admit defeat. I am 37 today and I just don't think time is on my side now either. Thank you for asking. Xx
