When does the embryo implant and how does it feel?

[Lilamy]

Hi.  I had my day 3 et today. I'm curious to know when the embryo will implant into my lining. and how does it feel?  Is there anything I can eat or do to give it a higher chance of implantation? 3 unsuccessful iuis. First ivf, 7 retrieved, 1 fertilized, 1 fertilized with icsi, 2 transferred.

Thank you for being there :)

Hi. 6 previous IUI cycles. I have just gone through my first IVF cycle. 15 eggs retrieved, 6 embryos fertilised. Went for day 5 transfer on Sunday 23rd March. We had 2 that had reached blastocyst stage but 1 had no inner cell mass and the other had abnormal cells. The best embryo was a stage below blastocyst. We had a difficult decision whether to transfer 1 or 2... Since it was our first transfer we went with 1. Due to do pregnancy test on Thursday 3rd April... Hate this wait!!!

Baby dust to all xx

Did you do a hpt?

I am currently at day 8 post transfer and constantly trying my best not to worry at every period type pain. This is my second IVF treatment the first did not work. I am praying this one does. Should I still be getting period type pains now. So scared and excited at the same time. But don't want to get my hopes up this time as was so devastated the last time.

Hello everyone,
I had my 3dt one week ago and have been experiencing cramping almost the whole time. These past couple of days however, especially last night and today was more intense and had back ache. Did hpt and was negative. I am s worried. Is it too early to test? Only had one 9 cell embryo transfered, second ivf.
Also have a lot of discharge from the endometrin suppositories, is my body rejecting it? I don't know, today had my second blood test for progesterone and estrogen levels and doc thinks I should continue the same meds no change. Is that a good sign? Scheduled for preg test on Monday 12/23/13.
When would it be ok to do a hpt that will show exact results?

You are welcome!!  I have been truly blessed with success on my first IVF cycle, I'm 32wks pregnant with twin boys praying still that all goes well.  My only wish is that everyone could have an experience like mine.  I have friends who are struggling so I definitely understand how blessed I am.  I pay it forward by encouraging and informing others about the experience and how to go about this process.  I was told by one doc that I shouldn't even try IVF and should just go straight to adoption or enjoy a life without children.  That was devastating but I was lucky to have someone who told me of another doc who was up for the challenge.  So now I am using my testimony to encourage others to not give up on their dream and I am genuinely excited for every success story.  I hope nothing but the best for you!  Keep posting and keep us updated.
