Success after IF

anyone have bleeding after a BFP?

I just finished my first IVF cycle and much to my amazement got a positive beta (75) on 11dp3dt. I started spotting on 8dpt3dt with moderate cramps, which is why I was so shocked by the positive. From then until now (12dp3dt) I've had light bleeding accompanied by light to moderate cramps. The bleeding is very light - I could get away with a liner - but bright red and pretty consistent. I'm on crinone once a day for progesterone support. I know 75 isn't a bad first number, but the bleeding is freaking me out. Anyone had any stories (good or bad!) about bleeding during BFP cycles? I go back for beta #2 on Monday, which feels like an eternity away! TIA for any advice!

Re: anyone have bleeding after a BFP?

  • The crinone could be irritating your cervix a bit, which is common. Also, light spotting from the embryo implanting deeper is also a possibility. Looking forward to doubling numbers at your beta!
    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
    After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
    My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

  • I had full on bleeding twice during the 1st trimester of my pregnancy and everything turned out to be fine!  There was no reason for it.  It sure is scary though.  Good luck!

  • yep, probably did the same until 10 or 11 weeks.  It is scary- but normal thun the same. 
  • I bled up until almost 12 weeks and everything ended up being fine. Terrifying, but it seems to be normal. Sorry it's so scary though, hang in there!

  • I've had bleeding/spotting off and on, so far everything is okay. It is quite terrifying isn't it?. Cramping is normal as long as you aren't doubled over in pain. Try to hang in there and good luck on Tuesday.
