2WW Day 10 - anyone else out there?

Post by lilmd »

I wanted to create a post for those that are currently on their 2WW! I am on day 10 and starting to go NUTS! At 1st I was having lots of twinges and cramping... I am on the progesterone oil and I also had HCG supplement shots AFTER the HCG trigger. I attributed the early signs to the HCG trigger (it was 1/2 cc around every other day.. last one was the 11th.. I think). So I have been symptom free since early last week. I did start having some tenderness in my boobs yesterday. I wouldn't think that would be side effects of the progesterone since I have been on that for 1 1/2 weeks. Anyone else out there with close to the same timing that wants to share????

That is exactly the day I am on my 2ww. Im going insane! I hate this waiting thing. Ive been crampy for a while. The tender boobs I have too but my RE said the progesterone will mimi pregnancy symtoms including the tender who whos. Have you taken a hpt yet? Im dying to. I took one about 4 days after transfer just to make sure the HCG was out of my system which it was. Im nervous that because of the cramping im having im going to start my period. My beta is this friday which is sooo far away. What was your progesterone level if they drew one??

Count me in for going crazy!! Today is day 4 for me. My trigger shot has left my system as I took a hpt this morning & it was negative. I had major breast tenderness right after my transfer but it has subsided & I only have occasional soreness now but they have enlarged! That kind of threw me for a loop. I take 1 cc prog. oil shot nightly so I'm not sure what symptoms that causes. I have minor cramping every now & then. I'm hoping for some sort of sign of implantation in the next day or two since i figure that's when it should happen for me. I can't stand the waiting to find out for sure. I am scheduled for a beta on day 14.

My doctor doesn't do a progesterone measurement.. not sure why? I was tempted to request it but I guess now I might as well wait. No, I haven't tested... but like I said I did take the additional HCG which makes me think it could still be present. At this point a - will just upset me and a positive will make me question whether the trigger and HCG is gone. I usually only take one HPT and that may be the day before or the morning of. Mine is also Friday.. I know the progesterone can mimic symptoms and it usually does for me as well... but the weird thing is it pretty much usually happens from the day I start not 1 1/2 weeks into it. Did yours start immediately?

TKH2008,

That was quick for the trigger to get out of your system. I thought it could take up to 10 days. As a matter of fact, last month I had a beta on day 9 so I could start another medication and I had a slight positive... like 6 or so beta.. which I think was the HCG.

Oh yeah.. my friend stopped by to see me the day of the transfer and she said something to me about my boobs looking bigger... I haven't noticed any big changes since I 1st started though.. just a little soreness...

I did have some cramping last week so I guess that could have been implantation but all the twinges feel the same to me... I wish I had more obvious symptoms. Have you noticed anything else... weird smells, thirsty, peeing a lot.... I have been having VERY vivid dreams and many that I am pregnant.. which is very odd for me.

My trigger shot was nov. 15 so today was almost 9 days after that. But I got a neg. not even a faint second line so I guess it's gone. Now I'm waiting for the pos! I haven't noticed any strange smells but I'm constantly hungry, thirsty & get up like 3 times a night to pee which is so not like me. I'm more tired during the day. I have had one very real feeling dream since the transfer.

Thanks for the happy thoughts druiett.

I have been falling asleep by 9 or 9:30 every night.. sometimes I fall asleep at 8:00 and take a nap and then go to sleep for good early! I have been very tired also.. but I have also noticed that as a side effect to the progest. URGH.. I am hoping that I start seeing more as the week progresses... 4 days and counting ;-)

Girlies, I keep reading about doing HPT and I am all for it, but I do just want to tell you that I did IVF Jan 07 and I took a HPT on days 9, 11 & 13 of my 2ww and the only + was the 13th day, the day before my bloodtest, so PLEASE do not be disapointed if you get -, it really means nothing until you get that bloodwork done...GOOD LUCK!!!

Gosh.. I am only on day 2 of transfer. I had mine done yesterday, Sunday the 23rd. And so far al I feel is sore from the ER still. Not too too sore, but I still feel it. They put in 2 embies. 1 was an 8 cell A- and the other was a 5 cell B... I had a 3dt.

I am not feeling any symptoms yet other than what is normal for progesterone shots and Thursday I start my Vivelle patches.

My beta is on Dec. 5 so these next couple of weeks r going to be tretorous.

All u ladies, good luck and hope u have a sticky one.
