Going nuts in the TWW. Did a pregnancy test this morning and it was a BFN.
Constant (not like as in all day but off and on all day) ovary twinges was something I had very early on with my son (IVF baby) and also my CP.
What I also got with those cycles but haven't got with this one, were electrical like pulses / sensations, which for myself, seems to be the give away of getting implantation, vs. not having those feelings in the cycles where I've had no success.
Curious to know if anyone else has felt the constant off/on ovary twinges during the TWW and what the outcome was (I am aware it could the progestrone, but this all started after transfer so confuses me a bit more).
Thanks

Hey, It’s my 5dp5dt too and just an hour ago I did a test and it’s BFN too. This is my 2nd transfer. Not sure what to expect. This is so so difficult 😞 wish you all the best!
I'm 4dp5dt too & also symptom checking like crazy! I've not really had anything other than some womb heaviness which almost feels like ovulation? With my first fresh round which was a loss & my son I had quite bad cramping, with my last round which was a chemical I had zero symptoms-much like this one. So stressful! I'm thinking of you & sending lots of love. Xx
My son (IVF) and CP had really similar symptoms. I think the big one for me is having some kind of electrical sensation.
Didn't get it in my BFN and didn't get it this time. Still testing negative at 6dt5dt and feel like an absolute idiot that I could have thought for a second, it could be positive (as in, I know it's not going to be but then you think oh what happens if a nice surprise comes back).
To be honest, I'm now just so glad I can stop analysing every single twinge etc., but it's hard right. I had my son via IVF and since him, I've had 2 bfn, 1 CP and now another BFN. 4 failed cycles and we're now down to our last untested frozen embryos, so it's hard to keep faith.
I'm so sorry, thinking of you. 6dp5dt and again negative so deep down I know we're out this round. I don't know if mentally & financially we can go again x
I’m 5dp5dt nearly caved and tested but I’m too scared , I’m getting twinges like period like pains 😔it’s so a horrible time this part is the worst , hope ur ok x
I'm 9dp2dt so I think I'm close to the equivalent of what you are. I feel rotten with cramps and backache. I just feel like my period is going to come any second now, it's due tomorrow. I'm on progesterone support.
I haven't caved with testing but my mind is running overtime with it all. Second week is always way worse.
So tough isn't it. I feel like all my symptoms have stopped and this wasn't the case with my IVF son and CP, was the case for my other BFN.
Tested this morning at 6dpt and negative. Have just asked my clinic if i can do a blood test as I'm on steroids this cycle and it's putting me into prediabetes, so that doesn't help. I'd like to stop them if there's no reason to be on them
Hope you're ok. I had my son via IUI, same as you I've been trying for a sibling.
My period was due yesterday and I had a lot of cramping, sharp pains last night. They died down quite quickly. You know the usual trying to remain positive but also realistic.
Yes. My first round of IVF my period came anyway when I was on pessaries. Past two rounds it hasn't. My Fitbit tells me when it's due and it said Monday. Is your official test date tomorrow?
Yep. Got the blood test this morning (I'm in Aus, and it's Friday morning here). Will get confirmation in about 5 hours. Although I know what's it's going to be, I feel like it jsut makes you relive the angst and the nurses feel sorry for you when they make the call.
I got all sorts of random pain. Ovary pain, sharp pain, hip ache, period cramps. Mainly from day 2-5 then returned when I would have been due on, and then eased again. Got a bfp on otd which was 15dp5dt x
Hey, I’m 5dp5dt and I have cramps and lower back pain like my period is going to start. Been all over the internet to see if my period can come while on estrogen & progesterone. As if that happens before test day I’ll be devastated. This TWW makes you loose your mind its so difficult, I’m on Google all day long symptom spotting 😔 This is my 3rd and final cycle and we have 1 in the freezer so just praying it works. Wishing you all the best and positivity xx
Same .. i have pretty much spend the past 6 days googling .. like I'm never not thinking about it and am in tune with EVERY sensation my body has. I did another test this morning and it's come back white as, so asking my clinic if I can do a blood test earlier so I can bow out of this round. We have 3 frozen left, and that's the end of our journey (lucky enough to have a beautiful boy from a transfer and so desperately want to give him a sibling).
I wouldn’t count yourself out yet, are you 7dp5dt? I know it seems everyone gets positives early when you look online, but many people don’t get a positive until after day 9. I always look at this calendar to give me an idea of what’s going on. I’ve promised my husband I wont test early but you just want to know either way don’t you. I had 2 failed cycles previously where we only got 1 poor quality embryo from 30 eggs. I have poor egg quality for my age I was 29 when we had the 2 failed cycles. 3 years on we’ve built up the courage to try again and managed to get 2 good embryos this time. But if it doesn’t work we won’t be doing it again as mentally it’s took me back 3 years. I forgot how horrible this TWW is. Hang in there hope you get some good news in the next few days. When’s your official test day? Xx
7dpt transfer today and negative, so I am out. While i am obvioulsy upset, i feel like i've had some time to accept it wasn't going to work, over the past few days (since the first negative at 5dp5dt - i just knew it hadn't worked, and now am glad I'm not analysing EVERYTHING and check forums every 5 minutes.
Thank you for sharing the calendar! I am similar and have poor egg qualiyt - from 90 frozen eggs, we only got 8 embryos all up (untested) - 5 cycles down and I am so lucky to have had my beautiful son, but have since gone on to have 3xbfn and 1cp - it's really tough to keep faith and absolutely, soooooooooooo mentally exhausting.
