Cramping and bloating after embryo transfer

Hi, i am new to this and wanted to know if anyone has gone thru an embryo transfer at day 5. I have intermittent cramps which are getting worse as i get closer to my beta test, which will be in 4 days. I also have terrible bloating,gases and some breast tenderness. I am not tired, nor do i have to urinate frequently. Wanted to know if anyone in my condition have had a positive result . If so, pls let me know.

I just wanted to say your chart was so informative in explaining the process after an embryo transfer.  It feels so much better to have an understanding of what's going on with the body during such a stressful time.  Thank you for the chart you posted.

5-Day Transfer

Days Past Transfer (DPT)

One- The blastocyst begins to hatch out of its shell
Two -    The blastocyst continues to hatch out of its shell and begins to attach itself to the uterus
Three-   The blastocyst attaches deeper into the uterine lining, beginning implantation
Four -    Implantation continues
Five-      Implantation is complete, cells that will eventually become the placenta and fetus have begun to develop
Six -     Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) starts to enter the blood stream
Seven-   Fetal development continues and hCG continues to be secreted
Eight- -Fetal development continues and hCG continues to be secreted
Nine -      Levels of hCG are now high enough to detect a pregnancy

These are all normal things to have after an embryo transfer!  Unfortunately, it doesn't tell one way or the other if you were successful.  I have a chart I will post for you to te you know what is going on :)
