So today I am 6dp3dt and I feel like I'm losing my mind. I'm achy and I'm so emotional. I have the sniffles and I'm so weepy. My poor DH is being so good about dealing with my nonsense. I wish I knew if this was the hormones, pregnancy or PMS. It's so wrong that those of us in the TWW get these symptoms. Sorry for the rant.
@christinav2015 I was just thinking how unfair these symptoms are My ET was Wednesday and today I swear I feel AF about to start. So super crampy but I know it's all in my mind because it has only been two measly days. Ugh. Swear my mind makes up symptoms to overthink lol
@thejessicanicol I understand completely I feel like it's coming every day. I fear going to the bathroom because I would be heartbroken to see AF already here. Last night I had a sob fest and this morning I'm feeling a little better although I'm crampy and nervous. We most stay posture for our stickie babies and BFP'S!
@ChristinaV2015@thejessicanicol I feel the same. I have cramps and back pain on and off that feel just like AF. I had a meltdown this morning before I left for work telling DH I don't think it worked and I've gained all this weight and getting fatter by the day and it's going to be for nothing. But I have other moments where I think well why can't it work for me? I have just as good a chance as anyone. In the meantime, I have quit facebook. Someone posted yesterday about how annoying her 3rd trimester is going to be, and that was it for me. We are almost there, ladies, hang in there!
Hi all- just lurking- but a lot of us with BFPs on the sep-oct board had AF cramps around 5-9dp5dt and were dead certain it didn't work. I had a gut feeling and was so certain that Id already 'moved on' and was just sticking around to congratulate the others...
I now think af cramps after your IVF are a good thing. I read your posts and think oh she's totally KTFU. Hoping and praying for all of you in the tww!
I totally agree with @HBamama2B I also got lots of cramps and I still feel cramps. I actually get worried when I don't feel anything. I still get worried about AF being here every time i got to the bathroom. I hope at some point this fear goes away! Ladies try to stay positive I read recently the positive vibes pass on to the LO so I've been trying to keep the negative thoughts out of my head.
@erinscaren I want to HPT so so bad but I'm afraid of seeing the negative because I'm sure it's too early. Maybe yours was too early and your little one wants to take her time. Praying for you!
Woke up today with extremely sore breasts, like, I had to put on a tight sports bra to help feel better. I didn't experience tender breasts until very late into my first pregnancy and never before/during AF. Really dying to HPT! But so afraid to at the same time lol
Transferred yesterday feeling so good . All but one of my embies made it to freeze. And they are all A or B Grade .I feel like this time it's gonna happen for us. beta on th
@thejessicanicol@ChristinaV2015 Thanks ladies, your support means a lot. I know I shouldn't even be POAS, but I am so worried of getting bad news at work that I wasn't expecting. Not that this is helping at all! Still holding out hope, our frozen embaby didn't become a blast until day 6 so maybe this is another late bloomer.
@poeface congrats on your transfer! Hoping this is the one for you!
So I caved this weekend and convinced DH to pick up a FRER HPT. Negative yesterday of course because at 4dpt what was I thinking. But then at about 1am this morning the morning sickness got me and I've been struggling since. Took another HPT today and BFP Very faint and of course I'm seeing a little blood which scares me to death but a positive is a positive and I'm holding on to that until told otherwise! Beta is tomorrow but I'm carrying my pee stick with me today for good luck lol.
With all of the betas coming up I hope to hear lots of positives! Baby dust to us all!
My HCG level is only at 66 today. Although it did double since Friday, they were hoping to see it closer to 90 since three days went by. My nurse said there is a 50/50 chance. It's so hard to be positive right now. I leave for vacation Wednesday afternoon—I'm really hoping I don't start my vacation with bad news.
@Rachd110 I'm thinking good thoughts for you! Fx for wednesday!

Beta this morning was a BFP I'm at 39.7 which seems really low to me but because ET was last Friday my RE said he's looking for anything over 10. Does that seem normal? Tiny bit worried.. Follow up beta is next Monday.
@erinscaren I'm so sorry for your bad news. Lots of hugs and thoughts to you. Do you have any ideas for next steps?

@erinscaren I am so sooo sorry this cycle didn't work. Don't lose hope this is just one more obstacle you will have to face but a LO will be in your near future.
@Jessicanicol Congrats! Very happy for your good news! Any symptoms yet?
@villacis811 Thanks! I had been extra tired all weekend so I tested Sunday but that was BFN. Then yesterday I spent all morning throwing up and had a little spotting so I tested again and positive. Today I feel like my normal pre IVF self except I noticed the cologne DH wears smells disgusting now and I used to love it.
