Hi, I am new to this site. I had egg retrieval 8 April and transfer 11 April, 3 day transfer. I had an 8 cell and 6 cell replaced and now on day 5 post transfer. I had cramping and bloating certainly for the first 3 days and had bed rest during those 3 days but raking things very easy, no hoovering, heavy lifting, etc. Since the cramps for 3 days, I have had no other symptoms. The wait us killing me and I as much as I'm trying to stay really positive, I'm becoming a bit down thinking it hasn't worked. Has anyone else had no symptoms after 3dpt? This is my first cycle on ivf(icis). Xx

Did my transfer on 04/09 and this is our third ivf and starting to have lots of cramping and I know it can be good or bad. I want to do a hpt so bad but don't know if I should our not yet. Did hcg on04/02 so it should be out of my system. Going crazy.

Hello, i don't expect anyone reads this thread much as its older, but the page that you put on for the way a 3 day and a 5 day transfer develops is so good and helpful, do you know how the 2 day transfer goes, should i just take off a day in development i.e gets to blastocast stage on day 4 if i had transfer 5 days ago, you count the day after transfer as day 1. had transfer friday so follow tues would be blasto stage? in second ivf 2ww and very nervous and apprehensive, lots love melisssa

Hi Ladies!
I go in for my screening with OB on Tuesday as well and then I have an appt with perinatolgist on June 11th.  I'm not sure of what tests I'm going to be doing.  I've been reading about them and their risks.  I think I will wait to hear from my OB/specialist as to which tests she thinks I should do.  I wouldn't want to put the babies in harm when it's not neccessary.  Please let me  know which tests you guys decide to do.

I really think we don't have much to worry about.  Especially since we will be monitored so much more closely and often.  Having extra appointments will put our worries to ease I'm sure.  

Waitingforgoodnews: Let us know how your appt goes on Tuesday.

I know there are additional complications with the pregnancy overall, just curious how you are feeling about the screening tests, and if you would do an amnio....

I just did my blood screening this week and in two weeks go for the ultrasound. For twins we just have a greater chance for preterm labor and preclampsia. I am feeling a little nervous but am concentrating on the joy of being pregnant (most days):) Good luck to you!

Hey ladies..are you getting ready for your first trimester screening?  Have you done any homework yet?  I am getting to that point -- our surrogate has her first OB appointment on Tuesday, and we will schedule testing as appropriate from there.  I hear so many stories...it makes me nervous!  I am 37, and don't really know what to expect or what the different risk levels are.  I am not sure how different things will be given we are having twins....

Thoughts???

Thanks!

HI, I am not doing IVF because my insurance doesn't pay for it. I am doing follistim with IUI. Today will be the third day of 150iu, I go back on Saturday to check the follicle(s). BTW I have PCOS and I am 26. Any advice?

I am so sorry to hear about your chemical pregnancy.  Does that just mean exactly?  That the baby just doesn't form?  I am glad to hear your not giving up.  We can't... we have to keep trying... no matter what!

Just had our US at 9 weeks 5 days and both babies look great! So much more to see heads, legs, and arms especially. One of them was moving like mad and the other just looked bored! How are things with you? Oh I'm also done with my RE and progesterone inserts Whooo hooo~
