Hi all, just joined the group today as I was looking in google for some answers as I can’t help myself. I have been trying to conceive for over 4.5 years and have unexplained infertility (2ivf cycle, & 2 miscarriages, 1 ivf, 1 natural). I had an FET 8days ago and my breast stopped being painfully sore since day 7, I can now sleep on it or hug my partner without any pain. It is still tender but I think that because of meds. I also have some light cramps here and there and no other very noticeable symptoms. Anyone has experienced something similar? Does this mean that implantation wasn’t successful? Thank you for sharing!

everyone is totally different, but my experience was this: all my transfers were exactly the same- boobs stopped hurting at some point. One of these transfers resulted in a baby though, and I really hope that’s the case with you too. Good luck x
I have had varying symptoms with each of my transfers although all BFN. I am on day 9 today and had -ve test yesterday. Clinic have told me I tested too early which I know I did but I just don’t feel this time it’s worked. Last time I did and it was still BFN. So I don’t think you can go off any symptom as the meds can all cause the same 😔 My boobs were sore last time but not this time and still the same result. Sending you baby ✨
I’ve had various with unsuccessful natural pregnancies, chemical IVF pregnancies, and my successful FET. In fact, my boobs were more sore with my failed transfer than with the successful FET! I had barely any symptoms except for i was very tired on and off x
Each of my transfers the symptoms were completely different - first two were fresh and ended in early losses and the first one of those I absolutely 'felt' pregnant and my boobs were incredibly sore and tender, whereas didn't really notice anything with the second. The next was a FET which was successful and I had some short-lived cramps shortly after transfer and a bit of spotting, but that was it until morning sickness etc kicked in with a vengeance around 5/6 weeks. Had another fresh that was a PUL and had surgery to remove that at 10 weeks - just felt dreadful with that one and no typical pregnancy symptoms. Then a BFN on a FET, with mixed symptoms. I'm naturally pregnant now, about 11 weeks. In all that I think what I've learned is that most of the early symptoms are the meds, and even those symptoms can differ with each transfer, whether it's successful not not. But when you get the full on pregnancy symptoms from around 6 weeks, they're different and pretty unmistakable. Only definite way to get an answer on implantation is an HCG test, then to check progress get it repeated two days later x
On my latest (and successful!) transfer I experience really really sore boobs for about 4 days in the two week wait (much more painful than on the first cycle which was a BFN) and then like you the symptoms disappeared so I was convinced I might get a BFN but thankfully I got a positive so don’t let this worry you - it could still be the result you’re hoping for!
