Who’s joining me on the TWW?

I had my first FET today and I’m entering the TWW. I felt so emotional after transfer.. we have waited a long time for this as I’m sure you can all relate to! I’m now terrified to move to quickly or to go to the loo (even though I know it’s totally fine lol). Anyone else have their transfer today?

hey there, same pinch 😊 I’m doing an artificial cycle with immunotherapy as well. How’s it going? I’m just looking for symptoms every 10 mins. Don’t want to go berserk. Are you resting it out as well or going for normal day routine from tomorrow?

Oh bless you, hope you’re ok! I know it’s going to be so hard not to symptom spot. I’m actually going back to my usual routine tomorrow but I’m working from home so it shouldn’t be too taxing. I’ll be going on my usual walks but not going to the gym like I usually would. I also will focus more on a healthy diet as I have diabetes so I need to make sure my blood sugars are controlled! How about you, are you resting?

Sending you and our fellow warriors all the luck and wishes for the 27th 🫰🏼 I am working from home as well so until yesterday was good but I should have planned the weekend better haha. I have a lot of back ache too especially at night. And of course the tiredness. Anyway remind yourself to pause and breathe 🧘🏻‍♀️

Same right back at you ❤️ any more symptoms? My back pain since 1 day post transfer has been so strange! It kept feeling like it was pulling on one side/an odd sharp pain I’ve never felt before. I can’t stop thinking about it all.

Hiya, yeah I had this pain on the lower back sides too but just until Day 3 . Since yesterday it’s calmed down and now I’m freaking out if that’s good or not lol.

All the symptoms are so pregnancy like from ivf medicines that they make you dance between hope and disappointment 😅

Hope you are doing well.

It’s really difficult isn’t it! Glad you’re doing ok. My back pain wasn’t too bad yesterday but then in the night it was bad again. I’m just trying to take each day at a time. I feel very strange!

Hi there I’m with you as had my FET on Tuesday this week. We are doing our final round of icsi with donor eggs and after 2 failed attempts are hoping it’s going to be third time lucky. I know what you mean about worrying about what you are doing, every time I pick something up or bend over I worry it’s going to cause a problem. The only symptom I have after 2 days is being tired and the odd stomach cramp but I know it’s early days yet. How are you feeling today?

I have everything crossed for you! When are you planning on testing? I have backache today which is weird.. it’s usually where I get my period pain. I know some people get symptoms with failed transfers though so I don’t want to get too hopeful! How are you?

hi my test day is 27th. I’ve been a bit of a zombie today and had a couple of stomach cramps but otherwise ok. The 27th seems so far away at this point and I just keep trying to tell myself to go with the flow and relax but it’s easier said than done. What day is your test day?

Catmumtogoose5 in reply toMiaow1975

Hey lovely, my test day is also the 27th. It feels so far away right now but we’ll get there! My stomach is so bloated and a bit crampy too xx

Morning exactly 1 week until testing day for us. How are you doing? I’ve been feeling a little anxious about the lack of symptoms I have. Have a busy weekend to take my mind off it though as busy with our church today and meeting up with a friend for lunch tomorrow, what are you up to this weekend? Xx

Catmumtogoose5 in reply toMiaow1975

Eek I really hope the next week goes quickly. I have had lots of lower back ache and twinges, also some bloating. I’m really hoping these are positive signs. It can vary so much, I know someone who had a successful transfer and had no symptoms during this time, so try not to worry (I know it’s so hard). Hope you have a lovely weekend! Sounds like a good one. I am going to the cinema later and hopefully for a walk this morning. Tomorrow is my nephew’s birthday party :) xx

Hi how are you doing and hope your nephews party went well? I had a few more symptoms over the weekend but most seem to have disappeared again now! It was my birthday today so treated myself to just one alcoholic drink and hoping that’s allowed. Hope your doing ok and only 3 more sleeps until our big day. Keeping everything crossed 🤞🏻X

Good morning 😊 all good over here thank you & very similar, lots of my symptoms have subsided a bit apart from bloating (which is honestly the most bloating I’ve ever had, it’s bad at the end of each day 😂) and my boobs are bigger. I don’t blame you for treating yourself to a drink, hope you enjoyed it 😊 2 more sleeps for me, my clinic have told me to test on Saturday! Lots of luck to you 🍀

I’m not sure what to do. My hospital has not replied yet. Maybe I’ll try this too. No harm will be done I think.
