One more day to OTD and I'm losing my mind!

[Allotmenteer16]

I'm finally due to test tomorrow after a FET (9dp5dt) and I've managed to hold off testing early. Like so many of us here I'm going a bit crazy with symptom spotting but haven't really had much, maybe some lower abdominal aching here and there and a fluttering feeling on and off since about day 3.

I'm worried though as I've been having quite regular bowel movements, not diarrhoea but going several times a day and when I had a successful cycle after a fresh transfer 4 years ago I was very much the other way. It's making me think I don't have that extra progesterone kicking in that would be happening if I'm pregnant.

Sorry, I'm just rambling now, only 24 hours to go. I know we're very lucky as we have a daughter, but I would love for her to have a sibling, we've had so many hurdles to get to this point in the last year. It was our only frozen embryo so if it doesn't work I'm not sure whether we'll decide to go for another fresh cycle, over thinking, over thinking, over thinking!

Hope everyone else is going okay on their journeys.

I totally get that you’d be feeling like this it’s impossible not to symptom spot. I’m 7dp5dt today due to test next Thursday after a FET also trying for a sibling. I’m convinced it’s not worked so I almost don’t want to test.

I’ve been cramping a bit on and off but very constipated, but I’ve read an upset stomach can be a positive sign. I’ve not had much discharge and I’m panicking because I’m sure I did last time and I’ve had no implantation bleeding.

Good luck tomorrow. Xxx

Hi Allotmenteer! Oh, I can relate so much! I had a FET yesterday and have had the same bathroom situation yesterday and today and it really freaks me out. I had one successful FET before which sadly ended at 6w and it was defo a different way during that transfer, like you said. Not sure it's any conciliation; I just wanted to say I can totally relate. I guess as long as we are not bleeding, we could have simply eaten something that doesn't quite agree with our stomachs? Fingers crossed for your test, not too long now🤞🤞🤞

BFN this morning, kind of numb but part of me knew, the other half hoped. Need a bit of time to decide what to do next, or whether to call it a day.
