8dp5dFET dreading the test! *sensitive update**

I'm not really sure what the point is in this post other than to say I feel so nervous and all my early positivity is slipping away!

I have felt really good this time, I even 'felt' pregnant for a few days but now I feel that old feeling of disappointment looming like it's not going to go our way.

I haven't had any cramps this time which is different to my BFP and my boobs feel completely normal. I almost don't want to test because I know how disappointed I'm going to feel.

Has anyone ever felt like this and gone on to have a BFP? Any words of advice to keep the positivity going?! x

8/2- I can't believe it!! I took a HPT last night and this morning and there are 2 lines!!!🙃. Im in shock and I know it's a very long way to go but I am going to enjoy this bit of happiness!! Thank you so much everyone ❤️ xx

hello, I honestly had very little in the 2 week wait. I got up in the middle of the night to pee but we were in Spain so I was drinking more apart from that nothing. I honestly thought it was game over so when they said it had worked I literally stood there and said … are u joking.

On all my chemicals and bfns I had all these symptoms and they meant nothing. Try and relax (I know it’s hard) good luck xxx

thank you so much for replying. I'm sure that you know that it's like with the weird symptom spotting!! I've been so much better than last time but it's just been the last few days that I've felt all the old worries coming back. Thank you for reassuring me! xx

I had absolutely no symptoms until about week 5 and then the nausea started, so don’t give up hope. This is my 5th time being pregnant (DD, MC, 2 Ectopics) and every 2WW has been different 🤯 it’s so frustrating why can’t our bodies just give us a simple sign so we all know if it’s worked x

I know exactly how you feel as I’m in the same boat!!

I also posted a few days ago with similar questions as I don’t have any symptoms either. Take a look at my post as i had reassuring replies where some ladies had positive results without any symptoms!

This is keeping me going! I’m trying to stay positive too! Sending you lots of positivity too💕

it's so hard isn't it?! The constant guessing! How many days until your test? I am 8 days post transfer now and I'm not sure if I can hold it together much longer!

How have you been feeling? I keep getting these odd twinges but I also think I might be imagining it 🤪.

Sending you all the luck xx

yeh it sure is! My test date is on the weekend!

I’ve been feeling anxious, nothing else! Twinges maybe a good sign if you’re not imagining it! But I totally understand what you mean! I feel like I want to feel every pregnancy symptom possible haha!!

Fingers and toes crossed for us both!! 💕

I am 7dp5dFET and yesterday I felt exactly like you. I hardly have any symptoms apart from some twinges here and there like u mentioned, nausea on & off and a bit of sore boobs but just when u touch. Nothing really different to what I feel when my period is coming so I just think it is coming and I am out. When I had my one positive which ended in miscarriage I had more symptoms so was thinking it hasn't worked and got all upset. I also had a negative with symptoms so I don't know really. So confusing. Going to try keep busier today so I think less! This 2ww gets to you. I started off so positive and relaxed but yesterday I just lost it all. I guess it's just part of the process. I test on Monday. It should be Sunday but the clinic doesn't open, so I have one more day of dreaded waiting. Wishing you the best of luck. I told the midwife at my clinic yesterday that I had no symptoms and she said a lot of ladies don't and go on to get a positive. We will see 🤞🏻

This process has taught me to be grateful for every step. congratulations on making it this far, surviving the 2ww is an achievement on its own, rising HCG is another win and now all the best for the scans. Wishing you a happy, safe & smooth pregnancy.

hi, the tww is the worst. I had three FET before a bfp. On my first two I had all the symptoms and was bfn, and on my last one believe it or not my only symptom was fatigue. And I was bfp on day 6DP5DT. Hang in there x

this could be a good sign! I have had to transfers and with both I had cramps and other symptoms and unfortunately it was a no so I would say feeling nothing is defo a good sign. Also my clinic let me test 9 days after transfer but I would go with what your clinic says! Wishing you luck!!! Xxxxx

Hi Pebbles! I was bleeding for 5 days before test day and waited for proper period to show up. I was convinced it was a negative on test day and bracing myself and preparing to cry my heart out but to my surprise HPT lit up to 2 lines straightaway. It progressed to 2 babies now sleeping in their cot. Best of luck to you and the rest of your journey. ❤️
