After many years of TTC we had a double A grade embryo transfer on the 24/05. We are now 9dp5dt.
I am really really struggling with my thoughts and fears and just thought this would be the best place to express them.
These are our last 2 embryos and we’ve put everything into this cycle. For the first week I was calm and confident that they had a really good chance.
I’m now 9days in and have zero symptoms. I know that doesn’t mean the end of everything but it’s giving me so much anxiety.
I am trying to take each day as it comes but can’t help but compare to previous cycles (which either ended in chemical or negative results). On the cycles where I had chemicals - so implantation occurred- I was bloated, constipated and excessively thirsty, I just can’t reason with my own mind that having no symptoms can still result in a positive outcome / a rise in HCG.
I am not testing early , we’ve tried lots of different things with each cycle and when I test early I don’t believe the results anyway so it doesn’t help settle me down. Test day is 6/6.
Any positive outcomes from no symptoms welcome please!! 🙏🏻

I’m also in the 2ww with a double transfer I had last Sunday and it’s my 2nd cycle. It is soo tough, the yo yo-ing of emotions . I’ve had minimal symptoms, a few days after transfer I had mild cramps and tiredness but now 7dp5dt I’ve been ok and maybe just bloating. TBH I don’t even know if I’d call them symptoms - I was even doubting if I know what a cramp feels like anymore and if I just need a no. 2 🙈my head has been scrambled. Good luck for test day, mine is on the 7th and I think I’m just going to resist testing early and go all the way as what’s done is done! Xx my fingers are crossed for you 💕
I’m in the 2WW too and driving myself crazy. I know that any symptoms are caused by meds but can’t help trying to spot them! 😅
I’m 6dp5dt and my test day is 07/06. I’m holding out on testing too because I’m petrified of seeing a stark white test! Fingers crossed we all get our BFPs Xx
Zero symptoms. I was so convinced it hadn't worked I nearly drank a beer! My symptoms did come eventually and I was grateful for the reassurance but it was an eye opener for sure! I felt rough! Good luck x
I think symptoms this early don't mean much.. I figured most of my symptoms are from progesterone pessaries.. because they come after I put the pessary .. it's been like that every cycle
I tried 5 times and thought my 6th time was a failure again. I had no symptoms too, but I got a call that I had bfp. Truth is 3 days before the hCG test I was crying my heart out as it was my last embryo and I would need to do another round of embryo retrieval but unexpectedly I had bfp. Try to rest. Don't think there is much you can do now except to rest. I know it is impossible not to think of the worse. Take care! Sending you baby dust...
Thank you for sharing your story with me. That’s promising to know you can be positive with no symptoms. We’re trying to manifest and remain as positive as we can. But you’re right, I think I just need to rest my little brain! Thank you for the reminder. I’m off for the next few days until test day and I plan to rest x
I think it's really normal to start off feeling confident after embryo transfer, then as the days go by you have more and more doubts and feel like you should feel something etc, it's how I've felt with all of mine. I had zero symptoms on my successful round Xx
Thank you, honestly I don’t know where I’d be without you guys in this forum. That is just the positive message I needed to help me through the next few days. It is still possible and it’s normal to feel how I’m feeling ! Thank you!
Symptoms, or the lack thereof, don’t always paint the full picture. There are many stories of people who had no symptoms at all and went on to have successful pregnancies, myself included. Our bodies can react in so many different ways, and the absence of symptoms doesn’t mean the absence of success.
You're doing a wonderful job by staying strong and waiting until the official test day on 6/6. That patience is incredibly admirable and shows just how much you’re committed to this process. Try to continue taking each day as it comes, and maybe find some small, positive distractions to help pass the time.
Hang in there. Sending you lots of positive vibes and hoping for the best outcome for you!
I had absolutely zero symptoms and I now have a wonderful healthy son. I was so convinced that cycle hadn’t worked I wanted to stop medications - luckily my husband convinced me to keep taking them! Symptoms don’t mean anything and each pregnancy is different!
I had absolutely no symptoms with my 6th FET. No sore boobs, no tiredness, no cramps, no spotting - literally nothing. I didn't even bother to test at home because I didn't want to see yet another negative test. So I just went in for bloods as requested by my clinic - and when they called that afternoon and told me it was positive I was completely blown away.
Symptoms in the 2ww really mean nothing - most are caused by the meds anyway.
