I had my first FET, thankfully the home pregnancy is positive today, day 11 after frozen FET but after 4 natural miscarriages i am super stressed about another miscarriage. For the last 2 days i’ve had spotting and cramps, first pink, today brown.
My clinic says it’s impossible to know at this stage what is causing it and could be normal but i am really struggling to stay positive as this is how all my miscarriages started.
Does anyone have any advice?
Spotting and cramping can be so nerve-wracking. It's reassuring to hear that your clinic considers this could be normal. After my first DE transfer, I experienced spotting on and off for the first 12 weeks, and that DE gave us our rainbow baby. Take it one day at a time. I am rooting for you. All the best!x
Your positive story give me so much hope, i am not 18 days past FET and spotting has not stopped, it’s so stressful i can barely cope with it. All the best to you and your family
Hang in there. One day at a time. x
Big breaths and keep as busy as humanly possible! Spotting hideously common. I had it on and off until 2nd trimester too. I know how awful it is though and had several miscarriages too. Sometimes it’s just the progesterone or your cervix.
I know our clinic had a counsellor you can try to speak to if needed.
Hang in there!
I’m so sorry, spotting and cramping is awful but quite common with ivf like others mentioned. I had pink, red, and brown spotting from 5 weeks to 9 weeks. They couldn’t find a reason why and I’m now 13 weeks and doing well so far. Hang in there.
Hi! I hope things are going well, I wanted to share my experience... with my first girl, I spotted and cramped rather dramatically for the whole first trimester. I did hemorrhage her placenta which caused heavier bleeding and some clumps.. but ultimately she made it and is now a beautiful 5 year old. With my second there was no spotting, no signs of pregnancy at all I was 100% sure it failed. And with My current pregnancy there's been spotting off and on but cramping is constant, I hit 3rd trimester monday. I did have a miscarriage before this little girl stuck, and there was only slight spotting for 2 days, and then an onslaught of heavier bleeding 2 weeks after my positive test, followed by almost immediate dissappearance of HCG.
Each pregnancy took longer and longer... my current pregnancy took 2 years of persistence and mind numbing struggles... I hope with every fiber of my soul you all recieve your sticky baby soon.
Thank you so much for your reply, it’s these positive stories that keep me floating. I am now day 18 after FET and the spotting has not stopped and some days are better than others. I try to believe that a miscarriage does come quite fast when you properly start bleeding but each day is such a struggle. All the best to you and your baby girl!!
Hi I am similar to you, 20 days after FET and spotting has started today. I’m trying not to stress but it’s hard as I’ve had a miscarriage around same time with previous ET. Hoping you got a scan and had good news
Really wishing you the best outcome and hopefully to reassure you, at the 6 week scan all was ok in my case with the embryo, there was a hematoma in there probably causing the bleeding and i am having another scan at 8 weeks. They did increase my cyclogesf to 3 times a day as my progesterone was a bit low, so fingers crossed for you to get positive news at your first scan! Hang in there, i know it’s nerve wracking but spotting as long as it does not turn into full blown bleeding should be ok
scan day 6wks after spotting
bleeding after transfer but positive pregnancy test
Positive pregnancy test while downregging
Sensitive post- positive pregnancy test after FET.
