infertility

I had my transfer(frozen cycle) done 6 days ago. I am getting the feeling like my menses is about to show itself.  Is this normal?  And, how soon after a tranfer can I check if I'm pregnant? My husband is so anxious... I'm afraid as this is our second try.

I also had a frozen transfer.  I had mine on the 9th and went in for test 9 days later.  Came out positive.  Had second test yesterday and still good.  This too is my second try - I m/c before my second blood test the last time around.  I go in for sono next week at 3 weeks.  I have had cramping too but feels a little different than menstrual cramps.  Good Luck to both of us!!!

I've had my transfer (Fresh embies) last Tuesday. At our clinic they only want to perform the preg test on 30/10/2006. I can't wait that long. What now? Can I go earlier? Can I do it myself? I've also been struggling with cramps = just waiting for menses to start. So scared!

I called my IVF nurse yesterday regarding cramps.  She said it is normal as long as there is no bleeding.  She said to abstain from sexual intercourse and exercise until cramps go away.  Good luck to all of us!!!

I've been really struggling with bad cramps this week. Especially today. Keep on running to the loo to see if it's started. Nothing yet. Let's hold thumbs. Heard the medication can make the menses not start while on it? Cramps really bothering me. Also struggling with constipation. Maybe the cramps are just constipation. Aaagh. I don't know anymore. Will just have to wait until the test on Monday.

GOT MY BFP Today. The cramping is still here, but not really worried about them anymore, because there's been no blood. Good luck to all you ladies! I'll hold thumbs for you.
