The 2 week wait after embryo transfer

[Saralou2209]

Hi guys,

I feel like im going out of my mind. Im due to do the pregnancy test on 4th april. 3 days time and im driving myself mad. This is our first ivf round and they transferred one embryo! I feel a little cramping, sore boobs and headaches. Ive read that these could be signs of pregnancy but i dont want to get my hopes up. Im so nervous right now

You’ve survived way past the first week so well done!
Just a few more days to go.
Keep busy!!
Good luck x

Wishing you luck. It’s a long wait and it must be harder over a bank holiday weekend. During mine I distracted myself with TV and books as I wanted to rest. Could you do the same or ask a couple of close friends for coffee or something?

Thanks guys, i have got plenty to do so thats a good thing and ive got so much support around me! I cant help feel anxious though. Anyone got any stories ? X

You are so nearly there! I'd try not to test early. Either way the result doesn't give much comfort before "official" test day. I've got everything crossed for you though.

And if course those are also signs of taking progesterone - it's such a frustrating time, isn't it! You end up hyper-alert to everything.

Personally I'm an inveterate tester and never manage to wait until my official test date. But just try to stay busy and enjoy the weekend, really! Good luck.

Good luck! Hope you get your BFP OP

I've also never managed to wait until official testing day but as another poster said, then you live in fear/hope of the official testing day anyway!

Try not to worry about/read into symptoms, my cycle that worked had no symptoms that couldn't be confused as impending AF.

Pretty sure everyone goes at least partially crazy that last few days. It’s really hard to think of anything else. I tried to distract myself with crocheting, sewing, gardening and baking (I sound like some kinda granny in the Women’s Institute, I know!) interspersed with Netflix. Everything crossed for a positive result for you🤞

Good luck, I wish you all the best xxx

Good luck, i really hop you are pregnant.

Good luck!!
