I am going through a fresh IVF round. I had a day 3 8-cell grade 1 transfer but don’t feel any symptoms. The first two days after transfer I had a few pains, really sore boobs but I think they may be the cyclogest rather than any signs.
This is my 6th cycle and 1st one post ectopic pregnancy so praying it works. I’ve never had a day 3 transfer before so if anyone could give any experience if what they did or didn’t feel around day 5/6 after the transfer that would be so helpful! Thank you!! Losing my mind slightly!

Hi Lovely. Hang in there, it's super early, especially with a day 3 transfer. You're absolutely right, any symptoms at this point will be due to the meds. I'm really hoping for a good outcome for you! You've had such a tough run of it 😔🥰 Try to distract yourself with something, and just look after yourself, eat well etc. It's out of your hands now 💕 Try to stay positive xx
AuroraXen - thank you so much for the positive message! Good to know- in all my rounds I’ve never done day 3 so reading into every little twinge. Trying to stay as positive as possible! I’ve just seen your journey- you are incredibly strong! The strength the failed cycles build is incredible- and you must stay hopeful❤️. I have everything crossed for your journey too x
Hi JasmineW. It can take up to 6 days for implantation to happen at that stage. SO now real symptoms yet, I'm afraid. When I first started in fertility, we did all Day 3 transfers, as we didn't have the expertise then to grow embryos on to Day 5. We still got lots of successes, so keeping everything crossed that your little is a success for you. Good luck! Diane
Thanks so much Diane- that’s reassuring to hear. Everything I have read/seen is mainly about day 5 transfers so good to know there are success stories for a day 3 transfer too. I wish I could just test now and find out. I still have a whole other week to go which is going to be hard! What is the earliest point you can start testing?
Hi there.I had a double transfer of 3 day 8 cell grade 1 embryos.I had small bits of cramping like period pain day of transfer and the day after.Boobs were also very sore but only for 2 days after transfer.Put the sore boobs down to the trigger shot.Day 5 after transfer I had a real dull ache right side of my uterus for a few hours and back ache on day 7.I was convinced I was out on day 7 as it was the same type of pain I always get before my period comes.I was that mad I went and did a test just to annoy myself and was sure it would be negative but to my absolute shock it was positive.Currently 14 weeks pregnant with our rainbow baby 🌈xx
Ah that is amazing news!!! I pray the rest of your journey goes well!! That is so reassuring to hear as ive had very similar symptoms. So good to hear you had a day 3 transfer too. I only had 1 put back in because they weren’t sure we’d have any if we waited until a day 5 transfer xxx my amh is exceptionally low for my age (I’m 33 with an amh of 6)
