Hiya, I recall that quite a few on here are currently in the dreaded TWW, so I wanted to do a little check-in to see how folks are getting on? It's currently 8dpt for me and I'm experiencing some spotting so I'm fully expecting a BFN, but I've had the past week to grieve my disastrous cycle and plan for one final round.
Just a reminder that whatever the outcome, you are one step closer to living the life you deserve. It might not be the life you hoped for or expected, but it can still be a rich and fulfilling life.

You’re so right. I always try to remember there are other things I want out of life than just for this to work. I’m 1dpt so still a long road ahead and as it stands I’m planning not to test early but I know I’ll feel a lot different this time next weekend.
Best of luck and I hope it all works out in the end 🤞
Hey there, same for me- I am 5dp5dt… the waiting is just horrible. I am already preparing myself for next steps as I don’t feel I have had the same symptoms as when I had BFPs (one chemical one MC). But on the other hand trying to tell myself that it is different every time. Crossing my fingers for us all!
Well done for getting to the halfway mark. And you're so right, I've seen stories from people who say their symptoms have fluctuated between pregnancies, so it's definitely not a reliable indicator. Keeping everything crossed for you!
Hi, I am 10dpt. I caved and tested this morning with a BFN!! I think this one is over as I tested positive at 6dpt with my last chemical pregnancy and my first. Sending you all lots of baby dust, hopefully you all get BFP soon🤞
Hiya, no symptoms for any of my transfers, not even the one when I got a BFP. But I know that different people have varying experiences so there's no hard and fast rule to these things!
Update from me: it's 9dpt and I woke up to more bleeding so I took a test to confirm the BFN. But I think as I've been expecting this outcome (for context I had an ungraded early blast transferred) I've kind of done most of the grieving so I'm feeling alright today. Just ready to close out this disastrous 2nd IVF round.
My plan now is to take at least 3 months off with a new diet and vitamin regimen, and potentially look into a new sperm donor. My wife and I have already decided this will be our last attempt, so the good news is that by the end of the year whatever happens I can finally put IVF behind me.
So sorry to hear this. Take it easy on yourself, I always find there is a drop in morale after a BFN even if we think we are prepared for it. I wish you all the best for your next round of ivf. I can totally understand wanting to have an end date, it’s such hard going xx
