Hi!
AnnieBrooke (above) is correct that the symptoms you are feeling are caused by the hormone injections that they are giving you.  Both estrogen and progesterone cause breast tenderness.  If you transferred day 5 embryos, you have a very good chance for success.  The pregnancy symptoms caused by the embryos themselves won't being until they implant and start to produce HCG--this coincidentally is exactly the same time that your RE is going to have you take your pregnancy test.
In the meantime, get plenty of rest and take good care of yourself,  It is OK to use a little heat on the sore back.
Good luck!

It is from the hormones they give you to prepare you to carry the baby.  You will have symptoms that women associate a bit with menses, because the same hormone flows (when natural) are associated with the period and female other things your body does.  You'll feel this way whether the pregnancy "takes" or not, so all you have to do now is wait for your test and not worry.  Good luck!!!!!
