Hi, I had a frozen embryo transfer on 26th. It was a day 5 embryo of quality 3AA

on 6dp5dt I woke up in middle of night (3am) with pulling sensation in tummy & cramps. I tested & was positive. Then faint line in morning but strong in afternoon. On day 8 & 9 mix of negative & positive. But 2 FRER stark negative in the morning & afternoon on day 9. My blood test is on Monday and I have stopped testing.

What happened here? Did the embryo implant / not implant / false positives? Was it chemical that resolved in 2 days?

is there any hope? Did you ever face something like this?

Hi OP, I didn’t want to read and run. Sorry you’re going through this, the TWW is such a difficult period. Im sure you already know this but ultimately you’re not going to have any certainty until you get your blood test done. I totally understand the drive to want an answer now, I’ve been there. If possible try to distract yourself with something nice over the weekend. By my third transfer I ended up resorting to doing jigsaw puzzles to keep my brain busy as otherwise I found myself obsessively googling symptoms etc.

Good luck!

Thank you for your reply.
I think I want someone to give me a magical answer that it’s going to work out.

You are right, I’m distracting myself quite a lot. And to keep sane I’ve stopped testing

I totally understand, I have been through the exact same feelings and thoughts. It’s very hard to do but I found the more I stayed in the present moment the more at peace I was, ie what will be will be and right now I will just focus on what I’m making for lunch etc.

Wishing you luck for next week!
