heavy bleeding on 8th day after embryo transfer

[joybelly]

Hi, I'm new to this site and I'm on my first ivf cycle. I had my embryo transfer on 17/10/12 and i've been taking the
progesterone. I'm on my 9th day now and wed evening i had spotting like brownish pink blood. then yesterday
(thusrday) morning still same then it turned to a heavy period. I spoke to my doctor and he said it should be a good sign that my period came it means that the embryo is starting implanting however he said my period came early
and its not due in 5 days. So he's not sure if it really works or not but to wait on my blood test this.coming monday.
I'm still bleeding a little bit right now but it's not heavy anymore. I'm now worried that it didn'T work coz  actually had heavy period. Also i tried home preg test and it came up as neg i know its too early but I just hate this feeling of wondering if its all good or not.
is there anyone had similar experience and still got pregnant despite having heavy period just before their blood test? also i have no symptoms of pregnancy right now except for cramps probably period pain only. Hoping someone cannhelp or give anlittle bit of advice.

Hi all,
This is my first IVF cycle and i had one blast transfered on day 5.On 2dpt i had some dark brown discharge which got lighter and spotted on 3dpt.Now today 4dpt im bleeding red blood like my usual period.I am so worrried as i am still early in my 2ww and already loosing hope after everything! Im currently on 4 pesseries a day n the clinic said that they cannot do much as it is too early! This is very devastating. my period is due next week.I dont know what to think anymore and i dont want to convince myself that this is implantation bleeding because it looks so much like my period.Had anyone bleed early in their 2ww and what was the end result?

I am from the United Kingdom, Northern Ireland.  We got a free go at IVF and I felt as though i have been on a conveyor belt, I had extreme pain after my egg collection and transfer, like severe cramping like I have never experienced in my life, went to the RE and they did a blood test said that I had an infection, never heard another thing about it.  Pain continued up until several days before my 2ww was to be over and then everything just stopped and my period came two days before I was due to take a home pregnancy test. Now they havent even bothered calling me to find out the result.  I havent bothered either. Very bad experience.

I am also new.  This is my first IVV cycle, and I did the 5 day transfer on June 23rd. I started light bleeding on Tuesday the 30th, and since then have had a full period.  My doctor tells me that bleeding is not always a bad thing, and to go for my scheduled test tomorrow.  I don't feel pregnant anymore and I feel so discouraged. I have read all your stories and I am being a realistic and feel that it has failed.  My husband is telling me not to read and to keep hope alive, but this is my 3rd day of heavy bleeding.  It is hard for me to be positive.  I am already thinking of how much more money it will be to try again.  It took me so long to save for this even if Insurance is picking up the majority.  I feel like everything is against me.  I wish everyone well and I pray that God helps us understand and keep pushing forward and have beautiful blessings.

I am new also. I am currently I n my 2ww. The longest wait ever!!!! I transferred a 5d single embie. Today is 7dpt for me. I have experianced light spotting since transfer and yesterday morning had heavier bleeding (bright red in color and a small amount of brownish discharge). As positive as I have tried to remain, I couldn't help but break down yesterday morning. The bleeding stopped and it seemed as if my symptoms weren't as strong anymore. I did cheat. Started to take HPT's after day 5. They have all been negative so far. My reasoning to continue is so I can prepare myself if that is the final outcome. At this point I can't even stop myself from doing them if I tried. Really wish I listened to to my husband and waited till the bloodtest. My first blood test is this Friday. Even after all the pain from progesterone injections, symptoms, and emotions I'm hoping my lucky embie is inside of me handling business. I want to feel like it was all worth something. This is my first Ivf cycle, and I commend all of you ladies that have gone through this multiple times. I am barely making it, but you owe it to yourself to do this. It's so much and life changing. I hope that God can bless us all with positives. With happy healthy deliveries and children. The things we do as women and sacrifices we make takes some serious discipline. God sees that! Please stay hopeful and strong ladies.

I am so sorry......

My heart goes out to you both.  A little bleeding can be a good sign...it could be implantation bleeding.  However, it shouldn't be like your period...when you need to change a pad every hour.

I had some bleeding the first 5 months, and my twin girls are now 13 months old.

I know that it's hard but try to think positive.

Good luck! :)
