8 day post ET

Hi, this is my first (and hopefully my last) IVF cycle. On the 24th of January 2011 i had a day 5 embryo transfer, I have 2 fertilized eggs. Dr. says everything looks great!! Ever since that day i've had cramping, it went from constant to slight. I noticed if i stand, walk or sit for a period of time the cramping gets worse. I would like to know if this is a good sign. Because it feels like AF is on it's way and I'm really hoping it's not. I'm trying to keep positive.

I've had 3 IUI cycles and NOTHING! I don't want to get too excited because I don't want another disappointment. My Beta test is this Thursday the 3rd of February, 2011.

I would appreciate any answers/support I could get.
Thank You!!

I'm sorry u had a negatie result but remember it also could be a false negative. U never know. I was tempted to test as well but I'm afraid to get disappointed. As for the cramping, I get it everyday too its a bit annoying. I really do hope ur Beta is a good result. I will be praying for u. Best of luck to u as well!

Hi I had my ET that same day also with 2 embryos. This is also my first IVF. and I have to confess that I did an HPT today (8dpt) and it was negative, I'm so sad right now...I also still have crampings every day...My beta is Friday. I'm glad you haven't tested at home, is better not to...Best of luck to you!!!!

Yes, I've been on Crinone since the transfer. So thank you for that :o)

The cramping is not as bad as it was the first 2 days after transfer, it's just on and off. I have been trying to relax but it's hard but thank you for your kind words and I will keep you guys updated once I know the result.

AF will not come as long as you are on prometrium, so take that worry off your mind.  The embryos have as good a chance as they can, to implant.  Don't worry about cramping, but if you think it's getting worse, you might stay off your feet (lie down, rest on the couch) to let it pass.  Sounds very promising.  Good luck Thursday!
