not sure what to think

Alison · Post by **Alison** » Mon Jul 21, 2003 2:37 pm

OK girls, I need some of your PMA. Had FET with blastos on Friday, just been to bathroom and there was some bleeding - not a lot, but red blood. Trying to tell myself this is a good sign, but its proving tricky! I always bleed before test day but, I only had them put in on Friday, AF's not due til next Tuesday! And I must say that I am REALLY wishing I hadn't come to work today!! Surely it can't all be going wrong so soon? Please can I have some words of reassurance about implantation bleeding?! Thanks Alison x

Oh Alison sweetie, I'm sure as sure can be that it is far too early for it to be all over. I'm sorry I missed your post that you'd had your FET - think about what day blasts they were, what day of your cycle this is and how long your cycles normally last. I'm sure these point to implantation bleeding rather than the other and you know enough about this lark to agree. I have to say I had a little tiny brown bleed about a week after e/t (but with twins it can often be red

. Well, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you - I'm off to acu tonight, but I'll be home definitely after 8 if you want to talk. If you feel really bad, tell work you feel poorly and go home girl! Lots and lots of PMA working its way from me to you ...... Love as always your mate Fiona xxxx

Alison If you haven't done so already, get yourself home. I am sure it is nothing but implantation bleeding, but would suggest posting on the `other side' to see how many of the Mums had that, it could very well set your mind at rest. I am having a paranoid day today, analysing every twinge, so sympathise with you totally, the toilet and knicker checking is a nightmare. Keep thinking implantation, and just rest up when you get home. Take care, thinking of you. Lots of Love D x

alison, I have to say, I definitely agree with Dawn and Fiona, this is implantation bleeding, Ive had this with previous pg's that were +tives (pre ivf though and m/c's....nothing to do with implantation bleed though, before you worry!) far to early to be af anyway! take the rest of the week off though to put your mind at ease!!! take care alison kathryn x

Alison, didnt you have 3 embies popped back!!! could be all 3 implanting!!!!!!!!!!!!!! kathryn x

Thanks gang - that is just the sort of thing I needed to hear! (apart from the all 3 implanting - ta v much Kathryn!) Feeling better and calmer now and convincing myself that its nothing to worry about (and at home, before you ask!). I hadn't even started worrying about the knicker checking yet though, been reasonably chilled about things - well this afternoon's put an end to that! I'll see about taking a day or two off later in the week - I really do think I'll go bananas just being in all day and will spend the whole time in the loo! Thanks again - keep your fingers crossed and I'll keep my legs crossed!! Alison x

Hi Alison Glad to see you're feeling a bit better - I'm with the girls, it has to be implantation bleeding. Especially since you had blasto ET the timing would be perfect for implantation, a few days after blastocyst. Treat yourself to a few days off work, a nice long weekend. Looking forward to seeing your +ive result. When do you test? Best of luck and lots of love Jen xx

Dear Alison Hope all goes well, and like all the girls say, keep you feet up and take it easy. I was advised to take the 2 weeks off of work. Please can you explain what blasto ET is, I have never heard of it. You learn so much on this sight!! Take care Lots of love Marteen

Hi Alison Hope your feeling a little better today and hoping the spotting has calmed down. I had bleeding (brown) on day 13 and I thought AF was here because I had stomach pains, I tested early on day 13 and it was negative. Would you believe on day 14 the clinic made me test again and its a good job they did It was positive. I am now 13wks 4d pg and I had spotting red/brown up to 12 weeks, so I think that this could just be implantation. If you want to mail me your welcome too. Love Shell. xx

Alison Just had exactly the same as you this morning, bright red blood, almost like heavy spotting, fearing the worst too, but reading the postings you had again and again to try and lift my spirits. Roll on Saturday when will know once and for all! Oh God, can't even bear to think of doing this a 6th time, it's soul destroying. Hope you are feeling better today, take care, D x

Hi Alison, Hope things are a bit better now - I haven't been on for a few days. Has the bleeding stopped now? As many of us have said, we've had some sort of bleeding and still managed to get a positive result. I'm sure you'll be fine - but I know from bitter experience how difficult it is to stop thinking about it all the time, Sending you lots of positive vibes and love, Alison xx
