7dp5dt FET

Hey everyone, I'm currently 7dp5dt on my first FET. I had a failed fresh transfer last year I started spotting at 6dp5dt so I new I was out the game! We had 3 left in the freezer so had one 5BA blastocyst transferred on the 20th of April 😀 I have not really had that many symptoms. I had cramping the evening of transfer and then right side cramping 2dp5dt. The day of 5dp5dt my belly just felt weird and my nipples were tingly and felt a bit sicky. I came home from work and just had to take a test and to my surprise it came back with a bfp!! My line is getting stronger but ofcourse I'm still so worried! My OTD isn't till the 5th of May 😱🙏 not sure what I'm asking but anyone else with the same sort of dates? Xxx pic of my tests :) xxx

Yea definitely so I have probably been Googling like a mad women haha. Going to self certify myself for the week as work is just stressful at the minute and home life too. My mum got rushed into hospital last week so been worrying about her also she is normally my childcare for my 13year old when hubby and I are at work so trying to get him covered has been hard lol.

I will definitely let you know how it goes. What day is your scan next week? I also started spotting brown/pink on Sunday but she couldn't find a bleed on the scan so we are thinking it's due to the pessarys.

@Mumofone07 mine is on Tuesday 25th. So one week today. Xx

Aside from the pure panic and worrying about everything I'm doing okay 😅 I have my scan on Thursday and I will be 7 weeks then so praying everything is looking okay

@Mumofone07 all okay and got to see/hear heartbeat! ❤️
Measuring at 6+1 although I should be bang on 7 today but they said it's not a worry as it's really hard to get accurate measurements right now.
I'm still going to excessively panic and Google over that though 😅

Yay congratulations hun, what size was ur little bean? I have been super anxious so I managed to persuade hubby in booking a private scan, bean has grown a little bit and we see a heartbeat 💓 so so relieved. Xx

@Mumofone07 they measured it at 6.3mm so 6+1 they say. She only took one measurement though, didn't try to get others and just left it at that and said nothing to worry about
What about yours?

Sungirl11 · 20/05/2021 17:59

Ladies how exciting!! Both beans look great!
It's normal to not get accurate reading right now or to not be exactly what we thought. The important is the bean there and that lovely heart beating Smile❤️

Sungirl11 · 20/05/2021 20:23

@Mumofone07 what were you told at your private scan about measurements and weeks/days? Xx

Mumofone07 · 20/05/2021 20:28

@willithappen I think at this stage they are just so tiny and hard to measure and grow at different times.

Thanks @Sungirl11 she didn't really say much about the measurements just that there was a nice strong heartbeat she also emailed me a video 🥰 but it's measuring 4.1mm and on Monday it was 2.1mm so it has grown a little bit :)

Thanks ladies. Despite being told during the scan not to worry about that I of course went straight to Dr Google and panic sat in but your words and hearing a lot more from others has me a bit more settled. I think it might be 12 weeks before I really believe I'm having a baby but one step at a time!

Sungirl11 · 22/05/2021 20:26

@Mumofone07 @willithappen both your scans are very promising! Anything can happen but this is like everything in life...
How are you both feeling?
I'm 6+4 and since yesterday i'm feeling reeeeally crap! I am very low and dizzy and have a terrible headache, I feel I want to throw up most of the time (no nausea), I just can't put 2+2 together. It's horrible!

Morning @Sungirl11 I have just got back from scan and baby has grown nicely with a stone heartbeat 💓she has pushed my EDD back till the 12th January as baby still measuring few days small. Oh no sorry to hear you haven't been feeling well. I have been quiet nausea but it does pass when I have eaten a little something. Hopefully it passes for you soon and the headaches eases up. Xx

@Mumofone07 glad to see baby growing away! :) it's so anxious isn't it, especially when you know when the transfer happened!

I have booked in for a private one for Thursday just to check. I think if I can see growth I will be fine (as fine as can be, until next worry). I called clinic this morning to double check re my scan as I have been worrying and googling so much. They reassured me again.

For some reason when I attach a photo it's not actually posting or showing up. Was going to send scan photo

Sungirl11 · 24/05/2021 14:47

@Mumofone07 that sounds great! You must have implanted late, which is absolutely normal too. The important is it's growing nicely and lovely heart beat. I'm so happy for you.

@willithappen googling is not good! Haha sure your bean is doing great too! A scan on Thursday to check sounds great anyway, better to be calm that worrying all the time. And it won't do any harm.

I'm feeling absolutely crap! I've always had hormonal migraines... but this is the master of all of them! Normally it's max of 2 days and paracetamol and rest. But it's 4 days today and non stop... I can't cope anymore... i've called midwives but got told would get a call back (and no call back yet). And here I am dying in pain and no one cares... my 7w scan is tomorrow, hope I can get out of bed and make it to the clinic. Bean has to be growing after what he's doing to me! He better will!

@willithappen did you not get another scan with your clinic? I googled so much too! Most of it was happy stories and baby had measured correctly by 12 weeks ect. Are you using the app? As I struggle to upload photos with the app.

@Sungirl11 I have been feeling pretty rubbish today. Had a little nap as my ds woke us up at 3 in the morning being sick. So woke up with a headache and feeling really nauseous, have had no energy what so ever :( good luck with your scan tomorrow do let us know how you get on :) xx

@Mumofone07 no clinic told me to book a private if I wanted to ease my worries 🙈 still waiting for call from midwife to get booked in too.
Yeah the app, it was letting me post pictures before but the last couple days I haven't managed to :(

Mumofone07 · 24/05/2021 20:16

Ohh okay, my clinic booked me in again in 2 weeks time so I didn't have to wait till 12 weeks as she said that's a long wait lol. Hopefully midwife will call back soon. That's my to do list tomorrow, as I wanted to make sure all was fine today before booking in with midwife. Oh I don't know then I don't really like the app so use the Internet one lol xx

OP posts:
Sungirl11 · 24/05/2021 20:37

@willithappen my clinic is same, I have my scan tomorrow and if all good that is me discharged.
Have you tried downloading the app again?

Also waiting for a call from midwife after my self referral form a week ago. I never got a call back today from them so this is me 4 full days of horrible migraine. I asked a midwife friend what I should do and she literally told me to go to the hospital to be checked and get some meds... my husband will be back from work soon so see what he suggests.
Will let you know how it goes tomorrow.
Xx

Sungirl11 · 25/05/2021 09:15

Yay! Bang on week 7... my head in the toilet first thing in the morning.
I'm going to have all of it! Haha

Sungirl11 · 25/05/2021 14:31

Hi ladies!!
My scan went really well!! Bean in measuring 7+1 and i'm 7w today! So perfect. Had a strong heartbeat (we only saw it) and my cervix is nice and closed and all looks perfect.
So we are very happy and excited
I did start with morning sickness today so it has been a bit of a journey (throwing up in the car) and i'm just lying in bed resting now.
Here he is! Grin
My husband felt the kick today when he saw the heartbeat and is soooo excited! He is so cute!

How did your scan go @willithappen iv been booked in with the midwife and my appt is on the 16th June :)

@Mumofone07 just had it at 20 to 8. It was SO good and baby is measuring exactly 8 weeks now and strong heartbeat still. So strange having a tummy scan and not an internal haha
I am so overjoyed honestly! I might just finally let my partner tell our family. He hates keeping secrets but I wanted to guard this

Sungirl11 · 27/05/2021 23:05

@willithappen yay!! That is such good news!! Glad baby is catching up and growing strong! Let us know how the good news announcement goes... 😍😍
