Hi Aunty,

Am on day 3 of TWW....FET cycle so not so dosed up on hormones. Am also feeling a lot less symptoms than my first go. (Mind you was really bloated for a couple of weeks after EC), On my first go I was on progesterone and did have sore boobs (not too bad though). This time I'm on pregnyl injections every three days...don't know if that makes a difference.

Anyhoo, was driving to work all worried because no real symptoms. Have a very mild crampy feeling in uterus area and twinges in left ovary but nothing exciting really... This wait is a killer!!! Hope you are travelling well through it.

Hi Aunty, best of luck too!! 6 days for you, not long to go now...I test on 26th but no doubt will be doing HPT well before that!!!

I'm also hungry and bloated, thought I was just being a pig (which is entirely possible).

Aunty - I suspect that your body starts to react differently to the hcg trigger and pio's after a few cycles....the first time I cycled, I had MAJOR symptoms to the hcg trigger and pio's....this last cycle, not so much. I did the booby squeeze so often, DH thought I was insane, and while they were a bit sore with this last cycle, it wasn't like my first cycle.....In fact, the day I did my first hpt, I had zippo symptoms, including the bb's and was convinced it was a bust cycle because I'd remembered all the strong symptoms when I had cycle #1 (where I got the bfp too but eventually had the m/c.)

The ONLY thing I had was some cramping between 2-4 dp3dt.....

So...moral of the story, I'm convinced symptoms are completely unreliable for predicting outcome....

Keep thinking positive thoughts about those strong embies snuggling in perfectly! You know the prayers of all of us on the board are with you!

Almost always true. The rare case of symptoms of early pregnancy after IVF is when late OHSS sets in, caused by the hCG from the implanting embryos.

Interesting hypothesis about the changing symptoms with repeated cycles.

God i hate this 2ww

I am not suppose to test until the 19th February, but i know that it is 4 days early but i caved in and did a HPT this morning which was negative - i only did this as i had some spotting this morning (very light and pink) however spotting has stopped!

Do you think it was too early for me to test or do you think that it is a negative?? :(

Hi ladies,

I test the 19th also Emma and i would only test the day before, I'm not testing this time though i don't think.

as for symptoms i have a dull ache/crampy in the area and i also had it more to my right hand side, no real sore boobs maybe a little on the outside edge but that may just be bruising as i kep checking them, DH is now telling me off for it.

We havn't long to go now we just need to keep the faith.

take are all

Hi Aunty~

On my 2WW I did not have really any symtoms. Occasional cramping and I was tired sometimes. I still dont really have many symtoms. The cramping is there sometimes and now I am really tired at certain points of the day, other than that I am completly fine! When I was pregnant with my DS I did not start to get any MS or any other symtoms until I was about 6 weeks. I know that the wait is hard and every twinge feels that it could be something but honestly you just can not be sure!

I would not worry as I know you will get you BFP this time anyways!

5 More day until my theroy will be confirmed!

Sending you love, hugs and baby dust!

Girls,

I did my hpt 11dp2dt when I got my positive. I had mild pms cramping and I still feel now that AF will turn up as I have it on and off. The only reason I tested 4 days early was because my boobs were tingling all the time. I had permanent erect nipples (sorry tmi) even when I was warm. But you know what, I don't think there is much signs early and those that are there are normally the progesterone pessaries anyway.

Even now I have days where my boobs are mega sore and then not so much and then sore again. Mine were killing me yesterday but not the day before and not today. Go figure, its the baby playing games.

Keep positive ladies. Never give up on yourself.
