I’m extra paranoid as many of you are I’m sure on this emotional rollercoaster of a journey. I’m on my 3rd frozen embryo transfer trying for a sibling. The last time was a chemical so I’m terrified it’s going to happen again.
I’ve had period type cramps since Tuesday and they last all day yesterday (Wednesday).
I did 2 cheap Asda tests on 8dpt pm and 9dpt am with faint positives and today did a FRER with a clear positive 10dpt. Ive not done one of these type before. I’ve attached pics. Think I’ll hold off testing now until Saturday which will be 12dpt. So scared of another chemical.
Anyone have cramps and success story?
Thanks 😊

Congratulations. The Asda tests aren't very sensitive especially for very early pregnancy. The first response looks very strong at this point 😍 I've had 3 early losses as well as a later one and my 2 chemical pregnancies never looked as strong as your first response.it's very hard to not be anxious after losses I never managed it with either of my daughters one coming up 4 and the other one is nearly 15 months old. I did experience cramping with my first daughter like 3 days before my period was due and I remember feeling devastated as I really believed my period was coming! And obviously never did. Could he implantation a bit of cramping in early pregnancy can be very normal 😊Good luck hope all goes smoothly for you ⭐️ Xx
thanks so much for your reply & reassurance. It’s just so hard to wait and so hard to not question everything. I don’t remember having cramps before other than my chemical so that’s why it’s a bit scary. Will keep everything crossed it’s just implanting more and stretching in there.
Thank for messaging. The waiting is now so hard. Will keep busy though and hold out until Saturday. Bought more FRER and Clearblue digital 😂xx
this looks really good for 10dpt I had quite a lot of cramps with our successful one as well as early losses so I find those hard to use a good or a bad thing. but so far the tests look fine lovely but I know the fear of a chemical well so totally understand your worries. Hoping this is the stick one for a sibling and whispering congratulations 🤞🏽💜 xx
Thanks so much for your message. As you say it is just so hard to know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing. I just have to keep positive and attempt to wait a couple of days to re test which is the extra hard part. I feel tightening happening today which I feel is a positive. Who knows! Praying to all the Gods or anyone listening out there 🙏🏼
Hope you’re doing ok with the start of your stims for next retrieval xx
ah that is a good sign 🤞🏽 you’re doing well so far it’s all this waiting and hoping at every stage that gets us isn’t it!
my eggs got collected yday so now I’m in the waiting to see how they got on over the next few days stage 🙈🤪 I do wonder if I will ever be sane again sometimes 😂 xx
These look very good! I had period-like cramps throughout my first trimester. They stopped as soon as I stopped the progesterone. Hang in there and good luck!
thank you so much. I think after so much heartache, failed attempts and a chemical it’s hard to believe! Crying with happiness that this could be it this morning 🥰xx
