Losing my mind!

I just can’t stop symptom checking during this 2ww. Comparing everything to last time. It’s day 4 today and last time on day 4 I had an implantation bleed.

Now I’m checking constantly and if it doesn’t come my mind is already playing tricks that this hasn’t worked.

So emotionally drained.

Lots of nice things planned this week so trying my hardest to focus on getting to test date.

I didn’t test early last time so I’m not going to this time either. But it is so so hard!

Sorry just needed to vent.

This time next week I’ll know

🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼

Well done for not testing!! My symptoms in all positives were different, so don’t lose hope! Keep your focus on the activities you have planned. 🙂

Hang in there! I know it’s hard not to compare cycles but just because you had an implantation bleed last time, doesn’t mean you will this time. Remember it’s a different egg, different time and it’s on it’s own little journey. I know this wait is torture but you’ve already made it 4 days, you’ve got this ♥️ 💪🏻 Xx

try not to be too hard on yourself. maybe even keep off the forum for a little bit? as much as it can help, I've found it can drag you deeper with your thinking when your mind needs a rest. You know that you can have a bfp with no symptoms, just look at the replies, then maybe give yourself a rest. Keep yourself busy doing whatever you can, get some chocolate in and get snuggly! xx

Hi MakingbabyNM

I’m on the same boat as you only a day or two ahead. It’s so difficult. The implantation bleed is normal. I had it last time but nothing this time. From my understanding that’s not something to worry about.

No symptoms is a good sign! I had nothing at all and I had a strong line at 10pt, did not buy a pregnancy test earlier. I know it’s hard and we look for signs, that does not go away even after a bfp! I keep everything crossed for you! xxxx

Thank you! So we get given a test from the clinic! I was thinking of testing day ten. But oftd isn’t until day 11! We did wait u til oftd with my daughter. So going to try my absolute best! 🤣So hard not to compare etc. But never mind day 5 today practically half way! 🙏🏼

Ps I really hope u get the news you’re looking for on reading your last post! ♥️

My ODT was on day 11 but on day 10 I had strong cramps all night (nothing at all the previous days or even afterward!) so decided to test and to my shock it was positive. Wait until ODT if that is what you did with your daughter. Wishing you all the best and thank you for your support ❤️

Oh I know it’s so hard. After having my first failed FET and having symptoms I was so conscious that any symptoms I felt were caused by progesterone. Maybe try some meditation apps. I know it’s difficult to keep your mind off it and not look at every little thing. I never had an implantation bleeding or any bleeding at all for my BFP if that helps ❤️

Thank you! Yes it’s just so hard not to compare and overthink isn’t it! 😭 but maybes if I didn’t implant bleed and I’m positive could be a good thing as I went on to have quite a bit of bleeding until after scan date although old was a constant worry xx
