8 days post ivf frozen transfer & no symptoms....

8 days post ivf frozen transfer, have had some on / off period cramps, but other than that, nothing...... no sore boobs no nothing, am worried that it is because it hasnt worked.  i had 1 ivf cycle before and felt alot of cramping etc, and it failed, so im hoping maybe no symptoms is good news? anyone out there not had any major symptoms, im too scared to do a pregnancy test before friday.

Hi, that's very interesting stuff, thank you.  Sounds like we are in a very similar situation.  I have had three early miscarriages now, the first two were conceived naturally with an ex partner some time ago and then me and my hb have been ttc for 3 years with no joy (we have unexplained both fine) that's when we decided to go with the IVF. I really thought it was our time in March when we got a bfp with IVF then miscarried again..
After this we decided to have recurrent miscarriage tests done and they have found that I have got natural killer cells and I have been on prednisolne  to help my body accept the embryos.
Unfortunately it looks like this time they just didn't implant:(  Got no more frozen ones left so will have to go for a whole new cycle again...
I would be really intrigued to see how you get on, as colorado looks like the protocol that i should be on.
Sending you loads of best wishes, really hope it works out for you!!
Let me know how you get on xxxxxxxx

hi there,
i was in the stage of having a break, until I decided to have another go.  This time I am using a protocol called the colorado - it includes baby asprin and a antibiotic called doxcycline 100mg - & then prednisolone which is taken after the hcg trigger  and apparently what it is supposed to do , is prepare the body not to see the embroyos as foreign objects........maybe look into it......if you want more info just let me know, il give you the run down of what I have to do, and you can let your doctor know..... its had a high success rate with women whom miscarry very early on..........so for people like us, where nothing seems to be wrong - who knows maybe our bodies arent accepting the embroyos maybe this could work......... i will let you know if it works for me.... im on day 8 of cycle.......wont be getting embroyos put in until day 20 - then the 2ww....rrrr so annoying!!  Taking a break is good - take some time out for yourself - try to relax, and do things for yourself, and then just go for it, with the understanding that it doesnt always work the first time......... rrr so annoying for us......this is my 3rd go- hopefully 3 times lucky.... Goodluck!

Hi Thanks for the info appreciate it.  Well I have sort of come to terms with it being a BFN now, have done around four hpt and all negative :(
Didn't have a hcg trigger this time so looking like the tests that I did were accurate...Go back to the clinic on Tuesday, so will get confirmation then.
Me and dhb have discussed it today and going have a three month break and then have another go, so hopefully third time lucky!!
All these brave Ladies that keep trying just give me so much hope!!
Hope you are ok, are you having another go??
Thanks again xxxx

Hi there stay in there, they say feeling no symptoms isn't such a bad thing as normal pregnant women don't feel anything until 6 weeks. Unfortunately I can't give you the better vice with this as I got a bfn, but I do know a Lot about testing early and I would recommend you do not do so, however I found out something interesting about that. If you have Had a trigger shot for ivf..... Pls read below.... I really hope this helps, and don't give up, good luck wishing u lots of baby dust


. How long does it take synthetic hCG (trigger shot) to leave my body
before I can test for pregnancy? Every woman's metabolism is different, but
as a general rule of thumb, you should allow 1 day for every 1,000 units of
hCG you injected. The standard hCG dose is 10,000 units; thus, 10 days after
the shot, the synthetic hCG should be gone and you should be able to test
for pregnancy without detecting the shot. However, you should ask your
doctor what the recommended protocol for your dosage is.

Some women choose to test daily to monitor the presence of the hCG in their
bodies; once the synthetic hCG is gone, the tests become negative. If the
hCG "comes back" and the HPT's turn positive again, it's likely due to a
pregnancy and not the leftover hormone shot.

Hope this helps xxxx
