5dpt and officially lost my mind

[HelloLaura]

That’s all 🫠 it’s going to be a long 8/9 days

I'm 5dp5dt..... its agony, I've been trying hard to relax....the other day I was so relaxed I forgot about the transfer just for a moment and then felt anxious as I had no symptoms!!🙃 Hope you're feeling OK x x

Oh! The anxiety at this point was too much!! I feel you. You’ll get through it… because you have no choice!

My only advice is accept that you are anxious. People say being stressed makes things worse. This anecdotal advice of VERY frustrating. One thing that can be proven is this advice makes you more anxious, which simply, isn’t good for you.

Distraction is my advice. I couldn’t distract with work due to the nature of it, so I took it off and cleaned like I have never cleaned before, had a massage, went to the tip, cleaned the cupboard of doom (2day job) - all those things that make you think you are on top of your life somehow! Others find work a real distraction. Google is an a*se - avoid where you can - still trying to follow this myself!

I have a scan today - 7weeks - praying (to every clergy-person) for a heartbeat. I wish I could say the anxiety stops after the TWW…..

Do what is right for you. If you try one way and it doesn’t work, recognise it and change. Sending you every good vibe!

Xxx

5-7 days is the worst point but nearly there 🤗💜

Hang in there. The 4-5 day mark was hardest for me on my first two transfers and that was about the time I was like "it should've definitely implanted by now" so I was frantically symptom spotting for signs. Best thing I did this most recent transfer was stay away from those '4/5/6dpt no symptom' forum posts as they drove me wild.

Hang in there. You’ve got this!

Although everyone feels the same regardless of how much you distract yourself. If tried to plan things on my day ms off so Iv always got something to do and preoccupy myself with. Wishing you all the best x

You're almost there now, but I know the TWW is torture! Just as others have said, try to distract yourself (easier said than done!). I'm 1dp5dt so just starting my rollercoaster! I truly wish you all the best and lots of sticky baby dust ❤️
