Failed transfer

Hi everyone. Just came here for a bit of moral support if anyone is going through similar at the moment. I’m 10DP5DT today, supposed to test tomorrow. I’ve had some spotting the past 3 days and then it’s got slightly heavier today but still nowhere near AF level of bleeding, and constantly a dark brown colour. I just couldn’t wait any longer so have tested this afternoon and currently it’s very much a BFN. I will test again in the morning just to be sure but fairly confident this time has been unsuccessful. I’ll be honest, I am really struggling, feel like this is an emotional rollercoaster and I daren’t get my hopes up even for a second because the disappointment is so hard to deal with. Has anyone been in this position and still got a BFP? I’m really struggling to believe that could happen right now but just wanted to ask.

@clazbear Hi! I'm so sorry to hear its not positive yet. I have however been told by my clinic that its not a negative result until 14days post transfer so there is still a tiny glimmer of hope for you. Are you on lots of progesterone meds? I've also been told they can cause spotting and cramping too as a common side effect. Sending you massive hugs and support xx

@Sheepsheeps Thank you so much for replying and your kind words. I will keep testing the next few days but somehow I just know it wasn’t meant to be this time. I am on progesterone and I think what I’ve been thinking are symptoms of pregnancy are actually side effects of that but I guess you never know. I think you just feel like you’ve had to go through so much to get here that surely now it will work, and then it doesn’t and the disappointment is just awful! But we soldier on and I’ll pick myself up again if it’s not to be :)

@clazbear keep your chin up! We've got to have hope otherwise what else do we have?! We only have a 5% chance this will work for us and its cost us over 60k so far.... my OTD is Friday so I will wait until then. Always here for support and a chat if you need someone xx
