2WW SYMPTOMS, IF ANY?

Post by jenhu77 »

Hi everyone!

This is my first post and first IVF forum I have joined. I wish I joined much earlier for this wonderful support I see everyone receiving. I am attending an IVF support group once a month if I don't have to work. I love all the women there and I receive so much information bout IVF 101, nutrition, therapy for couples going through IVF and keeping the relationship sane for this tough time in our lives, etc. I'm 36 yrs old. I was pregnant naturally once back in 2005 but miscarried at 6 weeks. We never tried again until the last 2 years.

One thing I haven't really talked about is what symptoms has anyone experienced during the 2WW? My first IVF cycle was in Feb 2013 and was canceled d/t the medications not stimulating me, the 2nd IVF cycle was in Aug, 2013 and I had 3 embryos but only 2 were transferred fresh and no babies :-( Now I just did my 3rd IVF cycle started in Nov 2013 which had 3 embryos again but they were frozen to allow my progesterone to come down naturally. I had all 3 embryos implanted on 2-14-2014 of all days...LOL! Mon 2-24-14 is the day I find out if I'm pregnant.

My 2nd IVF cycle, I had the sore boobs, a tan thick discharge 2 days after transfer and I noticed and change in my sense of smell. Then all of a sudden all symptoms went away. I found out not pregnant. This 2nd time around I had the sore boobs right away, no tan thick discharge and I think a change in my sense of smell again, but my smell seems back to normal now, my boobs are not as sore as they first were and now I notice I'm hiccuping and belching every so often. I don't remember the hiccups and belching before. I also think I was urinating more but that also seemed to subside. I know everyone knows how difficult the 2WW can be, so I was wondering if someone can let me know any symptoms, if any, they have had during their 2WW? The nurses all tell me there are no symptoms and that everyone is different and I get that but I know my body and it is very sensitive. So its hard to believe I wouldn't have some sort of symptom.

Going nuts!! Please help!

AaaAaHHHHHH i just typed my little hands off then it all disappeared! ok start again..
Jenhu77 Im sorry for your miscarrige :( you have had such a big rollercoaster ride with all this havent you!
The 2ww is a hard thing... my symptoms might be the same as yours yet we both might get a different result... the other beautiful thing about it all is most symptoms are the same as a period or you could easily blame all the hormones!! (HAHAHA JUST TO KEEP IT INTERESTING FOR US WOMEN )
One symptom that has been 'growing' since i started this crazy ordeal has been my boobs.. although i keep wondering is that the crinone doing its magic, my period or the miracle we have been waiting for??? The hard part is no one will know till after the fact and then the dreaded 2ww will be over and we will be left to look at our cards again...
Today is the first day my tummy feels (doesnt look-still very bloated) back to normal, no soreness or tenderness...
As for smell i havent noticed anything different.. how has your sense of smell been lately?

I have appt at 850 am. Nervous. Sense of smell is back to normal. My belly seemed like it went down as well. My boobs are not as sore. So I don't know. My body is so sensitive to new things I'm surprised I wouldn't feel anything. But you're right, all the symptoms I'm looking for are the same as a period or could be the meds making feel this way (so cruel)! I will definitely let you know. When do you find out?

So if things are good right now, enjoy it. It won’t last forever. If things are bad, don’t worry because it won’t last forever either. Just because life isn’t easy at the moment, doesn’t mean you can’t laugh. Just because something is bothering you, doesn’t mean you can’t smile. Every moment gives you a new beginning and a new ending. You get a second chance, every second. You just have to take it and make the best of it." ~Adm., TrulyMind, 8 THINGS TO REMEMBER WHEN EVERYTHING GOES WRONG
