Not this early. I started to have real symptoms 6 weeks into it. I realized in hindsight most of what I thought were early symptoms were most likely due to the meds! Plenty of time for nausea and sickness later on :(

Thank you for your reply but how did you feel in the 2 weeks?

A bit tired, stressed and had some spotting too. I felt what I thought was nausea but only layer realized (when the real nausea kicked in) that it was probably my mind playing games as the sickness i felt when I was 6/7 weeks did not compare with what I had experienced in the TWW. It's an hard time I know, and the waiting plays many trick on your mind. I hope you can get through it fast, I kept very busy at work and out socially to keep my mind off as there wasn't really anything we could do..

I agree with swimming, I did loads of IVF rounds - some successful but MC, some failed and one finally gave us our daughter. Any ‘symptoms’ are solely due to medication until about 6/7 weeks - or wishful thinking! I had every symptom under the sun and no symptoms other rounds, there was no guaranteed symptom that meant it had worked unfortunately. Good luck xx

Thank you for your reply how did you feel generally within the two week?

Like I said - it varied per round. Some rounds I felt normal, sometimes exhausted and very pregnant and sick (I wasn’t pregnant), I had twinges and cramps pretty much every round xx

I had cramps, spotting, massive blue vein in my boob, was tired out but then all could have been the progesterone. You never really know, some have no symptoms, some have loads and end up with a bfn. It’s really luck of the draw. I know that at 6 and 5 weeks with both my boys that morning sickness started and didn’t end until they arrived. Good luck! X

Thank you, I was really sick on day 1 after transfer and my smell was unbelievably strong however since day 3 everything has stopped. I’m an anxious mess the TWW is more nerve wracking than applying for my mortgage 🤦🏼‍♀️

I’d say that wouldn’t be linked to a bfp as it’s not had time to do anything that soon but just because you don’t feel different doesn’t mean your out. I hope you get a big fat positive on test day!! Xxx
