3dp5dt FET 1st ivf cycle,2ww..

[JGIVF2023]

Hi! Looking for some reassurance! We have done our first ivf cycle and currently on our 3rd day of the 2ww after a 5dt and I’m freaking out, I have little twinges but they are tiny and not frequent! My boobs are sore but they’ve been sore for as long as I’ve been taking the cycolgest pessaries so this is nothing new, I was dizzy/lightheaded the day after transfer but that disappeared, I’m bloated but again… I’ve been bloated since egg retrieval. Today I took a test (3dp5dt)which was negative but then after 10 mins it showed the faintest ever positive and I was convinced it was an evaporation line so I went and got some FR a couple hours later and as I thought… BFN, has anyone had a similar slow start with a positive outcome to cheer me up please?x 🥰🤞🏼

Hey,

Far too early to test. As hard as it is be patient. Because it's negative now at day 3, doesn't mean it hasn't worked.
I waited until my blood test.

But for some reassurance;
Cycle 1;
Sore boobs
Felt sick
Tiredness
Vivid dreams
It worked but had a MMC had 8 weeks

Cycle 2;
Sore boobs
It worked but MC 4 days after finding out

Cycle 3;
No symptoms.
Got my little boy.

It varies so much and I know the wait is a mind fuck.
Just take it a day at a time, best of luck

I had zero symptoms whatsoever so I don't think symptom spotting means much.

FWIW I got faint positives 4dp5dt for my two positives. The first ended in an ectopic but the second is currently identical twins. It really depends how soon your body starts making the hormone and how quickly they implant. I'd try again tomorrow morning but not stress if it's negative for a while.

Hi! Thanks for your reply! I tried again at 4am this morning and still a negative test and feeling rather deflated however I have had some cramping but it does feel like period cramping which is making me nervous. I didn’t have my transfer until 4.30 in the afternoon so I feel like when I’m counting it, should I count it as days past from the afternoon?

Yeah I counted 1 day as the official 24 hour period.
