ICSI - loss of cramps/ pregnancy feelings 7dp. Looking for hope :(

From day 1-5 post transfer I had been feeling lots of pelvic activity.. since day 6 post transfer they stopped. This is our 5th transfer (I’ve done 5 egg collections) and our first ever perfect Blast and as well as an average quality Blast we transferred 29th June. After 3 rounds of not getting past day 4 embryo development we were ecstatic to get good development on day 5. Now I’m freaking out as I don’t feel the same as I did when I got pregnant our first round of IVF (this time no cramps or sore boobs) That was my only ever pregnancy that end as a CP.

Please tell me there’s still a chance - looking for success stories! Thanks all x

This sounds really similar to my latest transfer. I had 2 ectopics previously and I had really sore boobs from about day 7. This time I had lots of little twinges and pulls after transfer, then felt like my period was coming but nothing else. Im currently 6 weeks so still every chance you’ll get your BFP! Im wishing you so much luck, let us know how you get on x

Hi! This sounds similar to what happened to me after my FET (lots of pelvic activity, little twinges from days 2-8 and then nothing) and I’m now 9 weeks pregnant (and no sore boobs whatsoever yet)… there’s hope! Best of luck!

Yes very similar, it’s comforting the twinges, and didn’t even feel like period. That’s why I panicked when they stopped, but thanks so much for sharing. It has really helped, big congrats wishing you all the very best x

It's not necessarily bad as your ovaries have been prodded, poked, hyperstimulated and there's all sorts of extra hormones bobbing about!

This is true, it’s more me comparing to what happened when I got a positive before and hoping the stopping wasn’t a bad sign :(

Symptoms can come and go - just keep yourself busy - reading books going for walks - eat well and rest when you can Take any meds you were given as directed and good luck for OTDTake care

Yes of course there is still a chance. I had no symptoms at all in 2 ww and resigned myself to it being the end of the road. I only had 3 eggs collected and only one fertilised… and then no symptoms - and then a BFP surprised the life out of me 😂 I just cried 😂😂 Now a bouncing baby boy so YES - keep those positive thoughts flowing 🍀🍀
