Cramps 8 days post embryo transfer

Our embryo was transferred day 3 as a 4 cell; 4 eggs retrieved only 1 mature. On a variety of meds & have cramps like AF is on the way. just wondering if any one else had this & still got a BFP? AF would be here on 11/3 & blood test on 11/5, making myself worried sick.

yes, cramping and movement is all normal. Nothing to worry about. You will carry on getting them as long as you are on progesterone (potentially for 28 weeks).

When I was pregnant I had cramps during the two week wait. I was so sure I wasn't pregnant, I considered having wine. Day 11 I got a BFN and didn't even bother to test again til my beta bc I was so sure I wasn't pregnant. But on day 14 my beta was 375--definitely pregnant.
I've learned cramps don't mean too much, especially if one is taking progesterone
