Any 2 week waiters?

I just had my 5D Embryo Transfer on Monday 10/28 & this waiting is driving me insane. Any one have any advice, any symptoms? I noticed a flutter in my abdomen on Tuesday and my breasts are tender as of this morning. I'm also doing acupunture. I had acupunture with a fertility Chinese doctor before & after the FET and this should help with blood flow. I go for my preg blood test on 11/11...needing someone to talk to who is going through this would be helpful. B Blessed.

I will be getting my first hcg blood draw on 11/06, this is my first IVF cycle, and im such a negative thinker. I have been having cramping every since the ET on 10/22, and everything is freaking me out. I feel like the waiting period was worst than the hormone injections.  So I understand your pain.

How are you?
My plan is to be on LupronDepot injections for 4-5 months and then do a FET.

I can use the time to exercise and de-stress!

Wanted to follow up...my embryo implanted, obviously, since the hcg level was in the 300's on Monday, 12/2, but a couple hours later I lost it. Tissue and blood sac came out in the toilet. The next blood test hcg count was 35. :( Now, on my period and taking a month off until I can figure out how to pay for another ivf cycle.
I had three polyps in August 2013, then four this past September. My OB/GYN removed them with under the anesthesia (hysteroscopy/polypectomy). I guess it's very similar to fibroids, because the doctor said she wouldn't know until the hysteroscopy.

So the doctor found a 7mm fibroid. Anyone have any experience with fibroids? My doctor is planning on treating me with LupronDepot injections to shrink it, and then do the embie transfer. She also mentioned surgery as an option to remove it. I'm so confused.

I was on LupronDepot injections because of my adneyomyosis. I've been taking prenatal vitamins for years. I was put on estradiol 2xs a day then up to 3xs a day, along with daily progesterone injections.

I also did acupuncture on the day of the transfer, before & after.

Since my BFN I am on my cycle, which is heavy, clots, and lots of tissue and cramps, I'm still taking my prenatal vitamins and I just had my LupronDepot injection on Wednesday.

I have an ultrasound on Monday, 12/2. I will post what my dr says our schedule will be.

Sorry to hear your news. Hang in there.  As for meds, I started with Lupron. Then aspirin, fish oil, RX vitamin, estrace 3x a day, and proj (2ml) each night.  Also did acupunture 30 minutes prior to transfer and immediately after.  Transferred two. Got BFP. Now almost 6 weeks and waiting for first US. I'm on a new RX vitamin, estrace 2x a day and still Projesterone injection.

Hi everybody. Im myself just went through 2ww and today got negative..Its our 4 ivf , they have transferred 2 blasts (HB AA 5 days), non implanted, its so disappointed and devasted news. And before I was buying hpt(vap ones) and it was showing faint line during 4 days, then 4 days before beta I have stopped doing that , was 2 scared to see no more faint line...
And still can not understand how that happened with such a good embryos, we have left 2 frozen from the last ivf, but its even more scarry go for FET as u understand they are last...
Girls , what medicine you were on since transfer day ? I did Argolutin (2ml =60mg)progesterone injections once a day and Progynova 3 times a day 2mg. I don't know why, but I think I needed more progesterone, but doc was sure I don't need it. And they did blind method embryo transfer as well , it made me uncomfortable as well as discharged me after 15 mins after transfer , said anyway embryos gonna move around until it finds it place , so no point to lay down for an hr..

It's been 14 days after my one embryo transferred 2nd day after retrieval. My blood test isn't until Monday/2nd. I have been having cramps since about 8am this morning. I put on a pad before we left to go eat breakfast somewhere, because I felt like I was starting my period. On our way home, I stopped at target and bought five-pack of clear blue hpts, as the cramping was really starting to worry me. I know you're not supposed to, but I was scared and desperate. It said "pregnant." It made me feel a little better, actually.

It's insane to wait two weeks! I posted a photo of my ultrasound, (in my profile) but I'm negative for pregnancy...my HCG was a 3 and then less than 2. I just got my period and we have one more frozen embie left.

I cramped the entire time during my two week wait, but I have adneomyosis, and it's challenging for me to get pregnant.

I'm on day 12 after 2day transfer. I had the same cramping on day 2 and 3 then stopped, too. I have been spot bleeding from progesterone vaginal suppositories since day 2. *****. Every little feeling or non-feeling worries me. I'm right there with you.

Hi everyone!  I am new to the community and I am on day 6 after 3day transfer.  I am going absolutely nuts with waiting...I know it doesn't help but its hard to focus on anything else, so I decided to join this forum so I could talk to some folks who are in a similar place.  I was cramping since day one after ET and now, on day 5, nada nothing everything has stopped.  Is this a good thing or not?

Hey! Welcome. I'm still waiting to see what's going on. Even though we saw 3 gestational sacs my HCG was only a 3. We seem to think my body is a little late & my 2 frozen embryos that were transferred were in a hurry to find a warm nesting place!

My doctors appt was this morning & my doc requested an ultrasound. We saw three gestational sacs! We transferred two embroyos on 10/28. One split into two. I am still waiting for my labs to come back, I'm sure they will be high with three sacs! My husband almost fainted! We were praying for life, we didn't ask for specifics! BFP!
