7 days after transfer and cramping badly

Hi,

Hope someone will be able to help me with a little advice. This is my third IVF cycle, first one with 8 eggs none were viable, second I had two eggs which were massive and couldn’t be used. Third which is the one now, produced 2 eggs of which one made to blastocyst stage and was implanted 7 days ago. (The grade quality is bb) All was going ok, until today when I’ve felt super bad cramping. I suffer from endometriosis, so used to years of pain. So this reminds me very much as the start of another period. Any one has any advice? Feeling worried sick. Thankyou xx

Hi Frannie, hang in there all I can say is progesterone support can mimic both period cramps and pg cramps … its hard not to over analyze every symptom … but just try and binge watch something and keep your mind off every twinge and tug and cramp 🙈all the best and I hope you get a bfp 🫶

I had really bad cramping and fairly heavy spotting at 7 and 8dpt with my son so it could be a good sign in my experience x

I had cramps around days 7 and 8 and then spotting day 9. All felt the same as my pending period. I was convinced that’s what it was and had all my plans in place for a huge glass of wine!

But I got BFP on OTD. Try and take it easy and hang in there!!!! 💪🏻 🙏🏼 👶🏼 ✨

Hi. Drink plenty of water, in case you are brewing an infection. Lots of nice clear urine please.S. Stay clear of constipation too. You can safely take paracetamol, but no anti inflammatories such as ibuprofen. Hope it soon settles. Diane
