8dp 5dft 2 week wait going crazy

[Keepondreaming]

Hi

I am new here despite been on a fertility journey for nearly 5 years. I have low AMH and the most eggs we have ever had is 3 per egg collection. We have done x4 egg collection and had a fresh transfer and now had a frozen transfer with a 3bb blastocyst. This was our only blastocyst from 3 egg collections back to back before transferring. Prior to transfer I had 3 months of Prostap for Adenomyosis to try and improve success. We had ivf with icsi as OH has reduced sperm count due to varicocele.

I have had pain in my groins and legs which has disppeared since yesterday. On Sunday I had back ache felt dizzy and at one point nauseas. Monday I had runny discharge early on and what I thought was spitting on wiping but now I’m questioning myself. My legs aches all day mostly to the groin and thighs but today no symptoms and boobs have not been sore at all.

Has our only chance failed 😞

I’ve done everything I’ve been advised (including eating a whole avocado a day and I hate avocado!)

I can’t ever see an end to this. Any advice at all?

Thanks

Hi there

Am in a very similar position with going through numerous cycles with low AMH - happy to chat via DM if you want to, my inbox is open xx

I'm 9dp5dt today, 5th embryo transfer of embryos number 5 and 6 (after 5 egg collections). I have low AMH too. Happy to chat if you want to reach out. Also going slightly mad in this tww 🤣.

Hi Tara thank you for your reply!

Wishing you lots of luck and every success I hope it works out for you!!

Oh wow really?? That’s amazing!! U fortunately from 4 rounds we had one day 2 transfer (nhs protocol not choice) and one day 5 embryo, no others viable.

Male factor is also an issue for us. Would love to chat!!

Did you have down regulation or did u go for fresh transfer straight from collection? Xx

[Keepondreaming in reply to Tarasunny]

I keep symptom spotting!! How are u feeling?

[Tarasunny in reply to Keepondreaming]

I've had 4 fresh transfers and one frozen, no down regulation as my body doesn't like to be suppressed. First 2 transfers ended in miscarriage, 2nd 2 BFN, this current one is the last with my own eggs as my AMH is so low (2.8 pmol/l a year ago!) Sperm not an issue for me as I'm a hopeful solo mama so using donor! Trying not symptom spot or get my hopes up but it's really hard to know if it's progesterone or pregnancy 😕. Actually dreading testing 😢. How are you getting on?

[Keepondreaming in reply to Tarasunny]

I tested this morning and it was negative I keep symptom spotting and googling which I know isn’t helping. I feel like I’ve done everything I can this time. I have had cramps to my groins and thighs. But I’m convinced it’s not worked after the test this morning.

Oh wow that’s amazing and such a brave thing to do solo!!! I really hope you get your dream come true!

They say it’s quality over quantity but the last collection we had 100% fertilisation rate but only one made it to day 5. We have never had another round make it to day 5. In January we had one egg fertilise but it didn’t progress. It’s hard when no one can give an answer as to why Amh is so low. I’ve not had bloods for AMH for a few years now but last time it was 4.5, I was only 28 at the time.

[Tarasunny in reply to Keepondreaming]

Fingers crossed its just too early. I'm trying to hold off testing till otd on Saturday, keep that hope alive for a little longer🤣. If its a BFN it's on to donor eggs for me 100%. Do you have a plan B? I'm keeping everything crossed for you 🤞

[Keepondreaming in reply to Tarasunny]

thank you!! I hope you’re right.

My husband wants to try again. I just honestly don’t even know if I can face it again right now I had so much hope it wouldn’t come to having to consider it again.

Wishing u lots of luck for Saturday let me know how u get on!!! Xx

[Tarasunny in reply to Keepondreaming]

Have you tried a new clinic it was a game changer for me going from 0 eggs one round to 9 the next.......

[Keepondreaming in reply to Tarasunny]

no we paid for 3 rounds - the previous clinic for one round was an nhs. Which clinic/company do you recommend or use?? As will def consider another clinic x

[Tarasunny]

It's really difficult when you don't make many eggs or embryos my last collection everyone else in the room had 14 + and I had 5! But was grateful for everyone of those 5 given I had a cycle with 0 before!

[Kotick83]

We are on the same boat! I am 7dp5dft and starting to drive myself crazy!

[Keepondreaming in reply to Kotick83]

ahhh baby dust for you!!! Wishing you lots and lots of luck!!

How are u feeling? X

[Kotick83 in reply to Keepondreaming]

Same for you! I am feeling alright, nit a lot of difference to my usual self except swalen boobs...that's why I am sort of making my mind to a negative...

[Keepondreaming]

keep holding out hope don’t give up yet! Mine def aren’t swollen they are maybe slightly sore today but I’ve lost hope after testing negative yesterday

I really hope u get ur BFP!!! Xx

[Kotick83 in reply to Keepondreaming]

Thank you...

HiI'm also in the 2ww and going nuts. I'm only 6dp3dt, our third attempt.

I'm spending all my time googling symptoms and trawling forums trying to find positive stories! I'm trying to stay positive but also scared to get my hopes up!

Wishing everyone the very best 🥰

[Keepondreaming in reply to Morsey669]

wishing you lots of luck for your BfP!!!

Honestly why do we do it to our selves? Google is not our friend! It’s just impossible not to though!!

I have seen lots of positive things about no symptoms and it working for people. I do have symptoms but symptoms of a period not a BFP 😩😩 xxx

[Morsey669]

And hoping you get your BFP too! I have symptoms too but could just be the progesterone or as you say could also be a period! So frustrating! You just want some sort of definitive clue so you can prepare yourself for OTD.

I've been harassing my friend to try remember if I had any last time.

I know I def had symptoms our first transfer which resulted in a BFP but sadly mmc at 7 wks. Was a BFN with our FET and I just can't seem to remember. I'm just doing a grand job just now of driving myself insane and DP!

We only got 2 eggs at EC this time, which was gutting and ended up with one fertilised hence the 3dt so I think I'm putting more pressure on myself this time.

We are still in the game though so sending you lots of positive vibes and baby dust! 🥰

[Keepondreaming in reply to Morsey669]

oh they do say it’s quality and not quantity but I get how hard that is from three egg collections we have one 5 day blastocyst for transfer no others.

I had a 2day transfer 2 years back but I can’t remember how I felt! I remember thinking I can tell I’m due on my period. This time I’m just symptom spotting n have a whole range but I’m sure I’m imagining some of them and it’s just my period coming!!! Fingers crossed for your BFP xxx
