FET symptoms in the TWW

I had my FET last week Monday 25th of October this was my first IVF transfer as I was over stimulated after my egg collection in August/September they collected 21 eggs, fertilised 11 and got 6 embryo’s to freeze. Since the transfer I’ve had a few symptoms that I didn’t get with IUI, itchy boobs/nipples and now has been followed by a rash I noticed the last few days, backache, shooting pains now and again from vagina down my leg and now and again some cramps shortly after the Transfer. And then last night had some more cramps and has got me a little worried as my OTD is in two days time 😟 I haven’t had any today so far. Just would like some advice on these symptoms, has anyone else experienced these? What are your experience’s with symptoms please?

Hi Swee. Could be down to side effects of progesterone, if you have been prescribed it?? Fingers crossed all turns out well. Diane

Yes been told by the clinic it could be side effects or pregnancy but I was wondering if anyone experienced this before.

Hi Swee, it’s my OTD tomorrow & I have had all sorts of symptoms but like Diane says most of them seem to be progesterone. I have started spotting (brown, pink & light red), twinges in my uterus, lower back pain & headaches. I thought it was all over last night, but no period yet!! Praying it’s a BFP tomorrow. Wishing you lots of luck x

Thanks for for the reply, yes seems like a lot of symptoms I’ve had also cramps through out these past two weeks but no spotting. My official test day is tomorrow, feeling anxious 😬 but hoping for the best results for both of us xxx
