hi all, I’m currently at 10days past my frozen transfer, I had a 5 day hatching blastocyst that was graded good.

I’m currently taking estrogen 3 x daily as well as cyclogest 3 x daily vaginal pessaries.

I’ve not had any bleeding/spotting .. I had mild cramps .. a bit of a niggle in the same place on the left hand side. Lower back ache… most of those symptoms stopped by day 7 and I’m having waves of a little nausea .. but as soon as I notice it, it passes. So I’m not sure if it’s nerves 🙈

I know I could take a pregnancy test and the chances are the results are pretty accurate but I’m also too nervous just yet. My clinic advised day 13.

I understand cyclogest stops your period coming but if my implantation hadn’t worked would I start having some cramping as if AF was due?

I think I’m just trying to prepare myself for the worst 🥲

Try and stay positive, you’re nearly there. Unfortunately symptoms mean nothing. I had a mixture of them with my I ww transfers and I can’t say my successful transfer stood out as giving me symptoms that made it obvious it had worked. I was actually convinced on one of my negative transfers that it had worked when it hadn’t and then on the flipside I was convinced it hadn’t worked on my positive transfer, so you never know. Well done for hanging in there till test day and sending you masses of luck. 🍀

hello there! i am on my day 6 FET transfer and I have pretty much the same symptoms. The cramps cannot be from the period because as long as we take estrogen, the period won't come. On the other hand, from all i read and from what my doctor told me, symptoms do not mean much as they can also be side effects from all these hormones we get. You are only 3 days apart from the test, i wish you luck!!!!!

As others have said the symptoms or lack of don’t mean anything I’m afraid. Only a test will tell you but it can defo still be a positive even without symptoms (I’ve had this) I think you answered your own question only a test will tell you 🤗💜🤞🏽 good luck xx

Hi. You could have a bit of an infection brewing. Make sure you drink plenty of water so you pass lots of clear urine. Only paracetamol if you need anything for pain? No anti inflammatories such as ibuprofen and avoid onstipation. Take all prescribed medication, including folic acid and vitamin D. Test the first urine of the day as instructed by your clinic. Diane
