hi, I’m driving myself insane here. I’m currently 3dp5dt FET this is my second round, 1st was unsuccessful the first two days after transfer I felt some twinges, very dull aches but very quickly left. Now day 3 and have no symptoms at all. Sometimes I feel my boobs may be more sensitive but maybe only cause I’m looking for something i dunno. I wish there was something they could do to put us out of misery and scan to see if everything looks ok or not

Some ladies have no symptoms at all during the 2WW This is a stressful time - just try not to test too soon .Keep yourself self busy - read a book ,watch a boxset on TV Eat well and drink plenty of fluids Rest when you can - keep taking any meds you have been given as directed
Good luck for OTD

Do not fret too much, I’m currently on 3dpt and FET too… I’m just chilling and being positive this round this is going to work😄
Aww it’s awful isn’t it. My first round failed so I’m disheartened almost instantly that this round will be the same. Unsure if it’s the pessaries or not, but I have been quite dizzy today and slight sore head but again I feel as though I’m looking into it too much. Have you had much symptoms at all? X
Not really, just twinges here and there. And trying to stay hydrated and eating much of greens and Fibre so I don’t get too bloated .
It’s still early for symptoms though, side breasts are sore but my nipples no soreness at all yet.
Hi - I had my transfer on Sunday so I think i'm a day ahead of you...it's my first transfer from my first cycle. Only the one embryo so feel like a lot is riding on it.
I'm on progesterone pessaries so think my side effects are from that - sore boobs, tiredness etc. I've had a sore back today and feeling like my period is about to arrive. (It's due in 5 days, OTD is 8 days away).
I've had 3 failed IUIs so disheartened by that but hoping my little embryo is strong.
Good luck!
I had a transfer on Tuesday so in a similar boat. I'm trying to distract myself from thinking about it but it's hard! Also had a failed last round so completely get that you expect the worst. I'm planning lots of relaxing activities and catching up with friends to distract me. I also don't have any symptoms except for the cramps from the progesterone. Hope you have a relaxing weekend, first week is nearly over!
Hang in there and try to stay positive 💖
hey, I am in very similar position and feeling the same. I am 2dp5dt and also had a failed first transfer. I’m scared that I’m going to do something to affect the outcome. I don’t want to stay indoors for 2 weeks and not see anyone but it does make it more stressful! I also went down a google rabbit hole yesterday 😅 which doesn’t always help. I feel a little bloated but nothing notable really. Sending positive thoughts your way! ☺️
Aww bless! I feel the exact same! I’ve been a bit more busy that past day but I literally just feel empty, now on day 4 and did stupidly take a test and obviously is was negative. I know some people say it’s far too early but I just feel like I know in my heart it’s failed. I kinda already set myself up to be prepared so really if it does end up positive it will be the best feeling. Hard to be positive when you feel absolutely nothing x
I wouldn’t go off the day 4 test for sure, my clinic said even on the day 10 test it can be off. Says it takes 1-5 days for it even to start to embed so wouldn’t show up yet for a lot of people.
I have been in many TikTok holes too and seems some people get loads of symptoms and others nothing , even if they then get a positive.
I get what you mean though I am also telling myself it’s negative but will be a huge surprise and amazing if it’a then positive. Annoying as I feel like I’ve been living in limbo for so long now and you can’t really plan ahead if there will be more rounds.
Good to talk to others though as I haven't told anyone other than my parents that we are doing. I didn’t feel too much from the pessaries just slightly sore boobs.
please tell me I’m not going crazy. Caved in and took another test. I know this isn’t my trigger as that was ruled out days ago

Hey, hope you’re doing okay. There does seem to be a faint line - fingers crossed for the next few days 🤞🏼
This one is today.. dunno if it’s any darker

That looks positive to me. My test was like that 6dp5dt and I’m currently 5 weeks pregnant now
It doesn’t seem to be getting any darker as the days go on though. Not sure what that means
Can you use FRERs or a similar test? I found those strips impossible to decipher even on succesful pregnancies and being the world's most prolific tester. Or get HCGs done, with your clinic, GP or privately? Then at least you know what's going on.
Yeah I’ll have to order off Amazon, don’t think they sell them in any of my local shops. As far as gps etc I have to wait til my test date which is the 20th. Even then I don’t get any bloods, I just call them with a test result to see if it was positive or negative. If it’s positive they book me in for an early 7 week scan. Dunno where you guys are located but in Scotland we seem to work so different from other country’s
England, and that's how my NHS clinic was - no blood tests (HCG or progesterone) and they just said test on OTD with FMU and call us. But they were abyssmal when it came to support where the lines faded and they point blank refused to interpret the worrying HCGs I got done with my GP and privately. Private clinic was better but it was still a combination of me getting my GP to do them and ordering and paying through an online company. It may be everything is fine and straightforward and you don't need any of this, and can just wait for the lines to progress, it's just to stop you going crackers and if you want definitive answers (which was me after two early losses and a PUL where I got zero help from my clinic) x.
I did do another clearblue test today and it was positive before it had even finished loading, will put a photo in to show you.
The first tests I used pick up hgc from as little as 10miu apparently and clearblue are 25onwards so it does give me more hope that so far everything is ok

I forgot to mention. I’m on the pessaries also, but had absolutely 0 symptoms with them. My eyesight went a bit funny for a day or two, but other than that nothing. 2 days after transfer was when my boobs started hurting slightly and then the slight headaches and fatigue. I thought the pessaries would have started symptoms as soon as not almost 5 days later which did confuse me and makes me think maybe the transfer is working but I really don’t know
