4dp5dt

4 days after 2 embryos transferred and zero symptoms. Having been pregnant before and experienced nausea and cramping (natural conception, miscarriage at 8 weeks) I am preparing myself for the worst. Does anyone else have experience of a positive result after no symptoms?

I am seeing a lot of people testing before the end of the TWW - is this just impatience? Or is it likely results would be accurate any earlier? I'm trying to cling on to at least 10 days post transfer and the clinic told me to test on day 13.

This is so agonizing 😞

Hi I would suggest waiting until the official test day to test and best thing to do during that wait is to find lots of things to keep you so busy you don't think about it too much but also ensure you take it easy and listen to your body. testing too early will lead to even more anxiety and the results will not show up before then with any accuracy xx

I feel for you, it is indeed agonising and my least favourite part. I had two BFPs and no symptoms with either of them until at least 6 weeks. The oestrogen for my FET made me feel crappy but that started before transfer so I just ignored that.

I think there is no rhyme or reason to symptoms. I had a blighted ovum and I thought I had symptoms after that transfer but in hindsight I think it was anxiety.

I did test a bit early, just because I wanted to know before I went back to work so that I could go for a run and clear my head. I tested earliest at 8dp5dt and line was very faint and caused me days of anxiety, so I wouldn’t test again before day 10.

Good luck, it’s a rough time to get through. Try and stay distracted, do nice things, give yourself a break and be kind to yourself xx

Thank you! Two BFPs is incredible, congrats ♥️ xx

Testing early can be accurate, it depends which brand you use.... with first response you can get positives sometimes at 4 or 5 days post transfer, the lines will just be very faint at the beginning and get darker as the pregnancy hormone increases in your body. There is always a chance of a chemical pregnancy, but testing early is not going to change weather you have one or not.

I tested early both times I had a transfer, and I didn't really have pregnancy symptoms til around 5 or 6 weeks, even though both times I got a positive result, so I knew I was pregnant at 5 or 6 days post transfer.

All the best and hoping you get a positive result ❤

Thanks so much x

you start worrying about signs even before the time at which implantation must have happened…

Signs are generated by Betahcg, which is produced by the embryo once implantation has happened. Ladies in general start feeling different (signs) once the levels of beta are high enough to be noticed by the human body, in general 6 weeks after implantation.
