My confidence in this round is waning. It is our last round for a sibling and I don’t think it is going to happen.

Symptoms so far

- No spotting (which I was hoping for as this was the one symptom I found reliable in my successful round).

- frequent urination has ceased

- vivid dreams less vivid

- constipated which is weird for me

- incredibly irritated (definite AF symptom for me)

- crampy AF like sensations

We had the email from our clinic yesterday asking if we would like to continue to store hubby sperm. Even though we both agreed this would be our final round, we just couldn’t bring ourselves to tell the clinic to throw it all out.

Well let’s see what OTD brings. At least we will be on holiday so even if it’s BFN I can grieve while sightseeing and eating good food!

I have everything crossed for you lovely. In hindsight didn’t really have any symptoms I could hand on heart say were different before my BFP.

Sore boobs (get them anyway before period). Weird cramping (same) and tired (usual!)I also went from positive to negative thoughts.

Good luck lady xxx

ahh it’s so difficult not to symptom spot isn’t it 🙈 from looking at other info regarding symptoms it’s absolutely impossible to say either way unless you get that positive on OTD - which I hope you do x

Im in 2ww hell too but only 2dp5dt so pretty far from finding anything out and just trying to enjoy being ‘pregnant’ even if for a short while ….

It’s so difficult isn’t it? I’ve just spent the last two/three days with mild cramping and analysing every twinge. On day 4 I thought, that’s it, it hasn’t worked and today I’ve woken on 6dpt and I’m thinking, maybe it’s worked and I’m feeling positive. It’s just such a huge rollercoaster. You might wake up tomorrow and think that it’s ok - and that’s ok! Be kind to yourself over the next few days. Good you are going on holiday, maybe it will take your mind off it all, even for a short while. Wishing you all the best of luck ✨

I’ve got a headache… in my last few transfers this was a sign it didn’t work. Im trying to stay positive and drink water like mad but I just panic. Im now 7dpt - so perhaps a bit early to test. I don’t think I’ll test until I’m past day 8. Im on a total rollercoaster. Other symptoms are that I’ve had night sweats, no cramping since day 6pt, peeing a lot but I’m drinking a lot of water,( this is quite detailed so sorry about this) but some white discharge not due to the Cyclogest pessaries. I’m just in a bit of a mess! I’m going back to work today and can’t decide if that is going to hinder or help me, I’m just going to see how it goes.

How are you getting on?

So hard not to compare to previous rounds!! Today I feel resigned to the fact that I have no control and no clue if I am pregnant or not lol. I have no symptoms as we speak. I have work today and it has helped to distract me, so I hope work will also distract you. But if I’m honest, I’m already starting to plan as if this is a BFN. Like they say - plan for the worst but hope for the best!!
