different symptoms

Hi there!
I never write on these things so I have no idea if I'm doing this right or not.  It is so nice to read about other women going through this.  I tried talking about my IVF with a few friends but no one seems to really understand. Reading about all of you finally makes me realize that it's normal to be feel like I'm on an emotional roller coaster!!!  
I just turned 26 and this is my second IVF cycle. BFN on the first one this past summer and now trying a new cycle.
2 3d embies transferred (1 10 cells and the other 8 cells).  The first time I went through IVF I had sore bbs and was moody but nothing else.  This time around, I'm on the same meds and still have those symptoms but I also have some dizziness and a few days ago had some mild cramping and lower back pain.  Could this be a good sign or am I just being unrealistic?  I still have to wait until next Thursday for my beta...slowly going crazy!  I konw it's only day 6pt but I'm dying to do a hpt!  UGH!
Good luck to everyone!!!!!

Congrats on the BFP.  I read somewhere that the trigger shot is out of your system after 5 or 6 days...  so I think that BFP is you!!!!!!!

Glad I'm not the only one with hotflashes :)

Hello , l am on 5 dpt.
And l dont feel anything. l know my breast have pain  cause of the progesterone.
Very little cramps which l would  not feel if l dont listen to my body.
The only way to have the result is to wait. We have to wait and see.

4 years ago l was pregnant. l had big  back pain and heart throb. That time l had to have D&C
Sometimes l am tinking l have to have the same syndromes  but my doc told me all pregnancy have different signs.
l hope so with all my heart. .
Please keep us posted

OMG, Mariana, what an awful thing for your daughter to say!  I hope you didn't take her too seriouosly.  I'm sure it's just an age thing...I remember being evil to my parents when I was a teenager :S We have an amazing relationship today though!!!  So I'm not too worried.

Susan: On my first IVF cycle I definitely had hot flashes!  I was on suprefact before the stimulation drugs and that stuff really gave me menopause symptoms that lasted a long time.  I don't know if you were on the same stuff, but don't worry, you're normal!!!

I have a confession to make...I gave in and took a hpt this morning.  My beta is only on thursday but I got a really faint positive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I'm trying not to get excited because it might just be the HCG from the trigger shot but I took that 12 days ago...wouldn't it be out of my system by now?  I have no idea how long it stays in your body.  Does anyone know?

My take my beta on Friday.  This will be my second ivf.

I've had the dizziness and I had a HUGE 3 day migraine I'm just getting over.  One question though...  Is anyone else getting hot flashes???  I'm going crazy here, it's November in Buffalo and I was driving down the road with my coat off and the window open!  This is crazy!!!

I'm also getting some mild lower back pain and "twinges" in my lower abdomen.  I've not had any spotting or bleeding.  

Good luck everyone!!!

SO MEAN... but hey.... I know she will grom and become a sweetheart again!!

Thank you so much for your help!!!  I've managed to hold off the hpt so far but it still crosses my mind all the time...

Mariana, when is your beta?  I think we may be cycle twins :)  did you have a 3 day or 5 day transfer?

DON'T DO HPT... It will show a faint line because you still have the Hcc inside from the trigger shut and few days after it will show nothing and you will feel miserable!!!! I know it is hard but WAIT. Im 7pdivf today and I have symptoms like breast pain and stuff but they are because of the progesterone supossitories.....

Try to hold off on the HPT.  I think it is too early.  Just try to stay calm and let your babies implant themselves.  Good luck.
