Cramping?

Post by rhall00 »

Has anyone else experienced cramping only 2 days after their transfer? I had 2 embies transferred on Sunday and on Tuesday I had horrible menstraul-like cramps. They're better today, but still there a bit. Could this just be from the transfer? Any advice is greatly appreciated! :)

I have been experiencing cramps and twinges since the 2nd day of transfer. They come and go. I don't think we can say what is and isn't normal during this time. So many women experience so many different things some go on to have BFN and some BFP.
Just hang in there!!! And good luck, hope your blessed with a success.

Hey tallisen_cat! Thank you so much for your response. It makes me definitely feel better that someone else is experiencing the same thing! I'm on my 6th day post transfer and the cramping has pretty much gone away today which worries me. I'm being way too obsessive over every little thing. I just need it to be Nov. 8th so I can find out if it worked or not. When are you testing? Best of luck to you!!

rhall00 - wow, I'm testing on the 7th. My crampng has stopped as well and I am feeling pretty good physically. My boobs are still a little sore but that's it. I'm worried to but trying very hard not to keep obsessing (god it's hard not to though!!)

It could be from the progesterone gel i'm on, it has horrible side effects.

I had a 5 day transfer - how about you? I just bought some pg tests and will do one on the morning of my blood test - just so I have some idea of what to expect. Have you done one?

I did a 3day transfer. I'm holding off on the hpt as I just need to be patient. :)

So not many cramps yesterday, but I did wake up with sore breasts and then some cramping started up again late this morning. So frustrating as I have no idea if anything is a good sign! I'm also on progesterone gel, but I was on it for 5 days before I started cramping, so that's why I'm thinking it has nothing to do with the progesterone. Glad we're going through this together! Let me know if your symptoms have changed at all.
