This is officially the 10dp5dt and I’m not feeling anything happening. Initially I second guessed myself saying that perhaps this is a good thing and -after 3 MCs- this is how it’s supposed to be, but not even getting any symptoms from the pessaries? Things seemed to pick up on 8dp5dt; slight breast tenderness and maybe some mild bloating (so minor it could have been my imagination), then a bout of painful acne on the forehead on 9dp5dt, which I also woke up with on 1dp5dt and was so unlike me. Not much changed in the boob department since, although I was hoping to progressively feel ‘something’ happening. Today nothing. Nothing from the pessaries, no AF feeling, no pregnancy gut feeling. If anything, physically I actually wake up more energised. This was our one and only normal FE after 11 ivf cycles.
OTD is on Monday but I feel like crying already. Based on ovitrelle’s half life, I might be able to have a hpt on Sunday at the earliest.
You brave women, all I can say is that I admire every single one of you for your immense strength and courage.
Feeling pretty low today 😩
***** update ****
BFP on 14dp5dt!

Never lose hope!

Take heart.. I didn’t have any pregnancy symptoms throughout my first trimester.. Apart from tiredness which only started around 7 weeks. You are still very much in the game. It’s way too early for pregnancy symptoms and your body probably just got used to the meds. Good luck. I’m rooting for you 💛xx
Thank you Bozo_the_pumpkin for posting and sharing. I do feel more grounded after reading your comment, thank you. Truth be told I feel much better than I have in a long time (and pretty guilty about it too) - I’ve taken so many meds in the last year I seem to have lost track of what normal feels like. I’m keeping your precious wishes close to heart for the last mile run. 💕
Not everyone gets pregnancy symptoms … I didn’t and I’m having twins. I had what felt like cramping on D7/8 I think or D8/9 but that’s it. Inly a pregnancy test will tell you whether it’s worked. Everything crossed for you 🤞🏻🍀 xxx
All women are different some have symptoms while other have done or very little Look after yourself - keep busy - eat well - rest when you can - drink plenty of fluids - take meds as directed Will be thinking about you on Monday -good luck
🤞🏻🤞🏻💗 as the other ladies have said you’re not out yet. I hope test day brings you a wonderful surprise. After 11 ivf cycles you my dear are a superstar. Everything crossed for you! Xx
You’d think it gets easier… It feels like the stakes are higher with every round. Yesterday was an emotionally destabilising day - maybe due to the all the meds? Thank you, Skippy🧡✨
I can understand that. Yeah I think all the meds and hormones floating round don’t help. I always feel like I’m going a bit mental once I start on the progesterone! I hope today is a better day for you xxx
Thank you ladies. This is sobering to hear. It is early and the symptoms may not be there yet. I'll keep praying 🙏🌈
Hi! I can totally understand you. With my first transfer I had all the symptoms in the book and even started having positive hpt from 6dp5dt but that pregnancy ended in a chemical so my second transfer I didn't had any symptoms. At about 7dpt my breasts started to get a little bigger and tender but I was thinking it's AF. At 10dpt did a hpt to know if I'll wait for AF or maybe there's a chance. The test came back positive, did another one the next morning and the lines were darker. My test results came that day with a beautiful number of 490 at 11dpt. I can personally say that my symptoms are totally different and they come and go and I'm anxious but every pregnancy is different.
It's comforting to know you've been in a similar place, Ally - especially with those strong hcg levels! Congrats!! 🌈🌟
Sometimes we feel more comfortable with what feels familiar to us rather than something never experienced before, even if it ends up being for the best.
I was used to having strong side-effects from the meds - not having any (symptoms OR side-effects) this time is unnerving. I'm more hopeful today. OTD Monday seems so near, yet so far. Many thanks for dropping by. Big hug x o x
Thank you sweetie! Every day goes by sooo slowly and I go to the toilet 50 times a day to be sure that I'm not spotting like last time.
I'll pray for you my dear and I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed. I'm sending you a million hugs.
I have a friend that did a transfer one week after me and she has her OTD on Monday too but she'll do a test on Sunday. She did a fresh transfer and she's taking pessaries but she doesn't feel anything at all too. She should feel many things after all those meds so maybe it's not a rule. Each body reacts different.1
It's very nerve wreaking and the anxiety builds each passing day until I'm sure we're gonna explode.
hey lovely, I had nothing at all until just before 6 weeks, I was that sure it hadn't worked, I tested to get the misery over with but there was a line waiting for me xx all the best ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hope you are feeling brighter today ✨✨🙏🏻 it's so hard to remember that no symptoms can be completely normal and a good sign. I am 4dpt (FET) and not really feeling much of anything either. Good luck for Monday. I admire your willpower to hold out!! Sending positive vibes x🍍✨
I’m with you my test day is this Thursday and any symptom I might have had is gone and I actually feel good so I’m thinking this is not happening for me this time, I wish you luck x
