Have you been getting any symptoms yet? Not long for you now at all!

[Blossom87]

I am 10 weeks 1 day! To be honest I’ve been really struggling with tiredness, I am just tired ALL the time. I also feel sick a lot, but I havn’t actually been sick which is a good thing. Also get bad headaches. My symptoms kicked in more around 7 weeks. I have my 12 week scan on the 24th, so just over 2 weeks away….but it feels like forever!

How are you feeling so far? x

Nothing yet! I had some really dull cramping throughout the TWW & a little bit since, and maybe I’ve been a little tired some eves?! But could all just be the meds, as I’m on a lot I realllly want the sickness to be honest as weird as that sounds! Last cycle though when pregnant I didn’t really have any symptoms just bloating & I read that the steroids I’m on & Intralipids can mask the usual pregnancy symptoms. So I’m going to try not to stress if I don’t get them, but I just feel it would be a little reassuring to feel *something* you know?!

How are you doing? X

[StarGirl]

I know exactly what you mean about wanting the sickness! I’ve followed a similar pattern to last time and had a flurry of symptoms in the tww i.e. frequent weeing, nausea, bloating, headaches, tiredness and then that’s all disappeared. It came back around week 6 for me last time so I’m just waiting and hoping they do. The nausea was all day for me last time and although really difficult, it was so reassuring. I’m on less drugs this time so it’ll be interesting to see how different that makes me feel.

My scan is tomorrow, we'll be 6weeks 6days. I don't really know what to expect, assume it's vaginal? Hopefully we will hear/ see something.
It really does push the anxiety levels, with waiting at each stage.
Best wishes to everyone

[StarGirl]

Best of luck for your scan tomorrow! Yes, they’re vaginal and you’ll see the heartbeat rather than heat it at this stage.

Sending you lots of positive wishes x

I guess it’s so normal not to have symptoms so early & I have read it all generally starts 6/7 weeks. We’ll be 6 on Sunday so hopefully I’ll feel something next week & you won’t be long behind! What drugs are you on this time? How was this protocol different to the last one? X

Amazing news, congrats! Yes it will be vaginal and you should hopefully see the teeny tiny heartbeat flickering away let us know how you get on X

Yes but try not to worry if you don’t! Better said than actually done I know…

We did a modified natural FET so I’m only on cyclogest twice a day!

Yeah I’ll try not to stress Ah that’s fab! I’m on 3 cyclogest, Lubion, inhixa & prednisolone but I’m finding it a lot easier to do the injections now I know there’s actually a good reason lol!

Have you done any more tests or are you holding out now for the scan? X

[StarGirl]

It’s my OTD today so I’ve done the Care test and a clear blue weeks test but I’ll stop now. I tested soooo much the week after OTD last time as my symptoms had gone and I didn’t feel pregnant at all but I’m trying to remain level headed this time, as I know for me it ultimately won’t matter until I see that heartbeat.

Hi girls!
My scan is booked for 23rd August, so nervous . Convinced myself something is wrong as my symptoms have suddenly stopped but hopefully I’m just being over dramatic! Just booked a few days away next week to hopefully kill some time, this wait seems much worse than the 2ww xx

Not long to go! I think I must have the last scan!

I know what you mean about convincing yourself something is wrong. My day goes pretty much like this: I feel pregnant, I don’t feel pregnant AT ALL there must be a problem to I feel pregnant again. Repeat.

Hey both & congrats wishfulthinking!
I feel the same. Well actually I just don’t feel pregnant at all. Last pregnant cycle at this time I had major bloating & was very gassy but haven’t even got that this time hoping something kicks in soon. What symptoms did you have wishfulthinking & how far along are you? X

How did you get on?

Hi ladies.

Just thought I’d join as I’m awaiting my scan on Monday - at 7+3 or 7+4 (I can’t even remember haha)

We were brought in for an early scan last Monday at 6+3/4 due to my previous 2 transfers being early MC’s. They couldn’t see the fetal pole clearly so been a bit of an anxious week but keeping everything crossed it was just too early for them to see it properly

Re the symptoms - think it’s totally normal to fluctuate. I have days where I’m like ‘why is my stomach so flat?! Shouldn’t it be bigger? ’ I feel like they just come and go through the days x

Hey hopefully it was just too early - everything can change so quickly at this stage so probably even if you went a couple of days later you’d be able to see it! My last pregnancy scan was at 6+6 & if was soooo tiny you could barely see it! So you’ll be ok at 7+3 or 4. Let us know how you get on

What symptoms have you been having? I have been a bit bloated the last couple of days but that’s literally it. I want some sickness but have read Intralipids/steroids can mask it so if I don’t get it praying that’s why x

[KMor]

Oh that’s reassuring. Very much hoping so as I haven’t had any MC symptoms like the last 2 times!

I’ve just had a bit of bloating here and there, my boobs have been sore the whole time, slight nausea a few days but nothing to write home about and doesn’t last all day… and I’ve mainly just felt tired. To be honest, it’s hard to know what’s the drugs versus pregnancy symptoms isn’t it

How far along are you now? X

Mostly a lot of cramps and what I’m assuming was round ligament pain, and so bloated! My boobs have been sore all the way through the process because of the progesterone so can’t really count that as a symptom I don’t think! I’m 5 weeks 2 days today! It’s so stressful isn’t it, overthinking everything! X

I’ve got everything crossed for you! Is your scan a nice & early one on Monday? Mine is 11:30 on 22/8.

Yeah that’s very true it is hard to know! I have been sleeping a lot better & a bit more tired in the evenings so maybe that’s a symptom, but again could be progesterone!

I’m 5+6 today, will be 7+2 on scan day. I was a bit taken aback when they told me how late it would be this time but I guess I should know for definite by then what’s happening x
