heavy bleeding on 8th day after embryo transfer

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 ,

I got my last periods on the 29th of Jan. However when I went to see the Gynec few days later, she test she said that there is 1 good sized egg and that we can try IUI. So we did the IUI on the 05th of Feb 2013. But today i.e 17th feb 2013 ,since morning had severe stomach cramps and then the bleeding started. Looks like periods.I am still in my 2ww. What does this mean ? Should I go for my test on 19th Feb

Hi,
Just wanted to say that I understand what you are all going through. Isn't it so upsetting to bleed (more than spotting) during the 2ww? It's like why can't we at least have hope until the blood test? Why do our hopes have to be shattered so early on :(
Sorry for being depressing lol, I'm on my 3rd IVF (2nd fresh cycle) and what DH and I have decided will probably be our last, just for the physical and emotional stress/risks it has on me and I started spotting 2 days ago and my blood test is only Thursday! I too was hopeful for implantation spotting, but it's that horrible feeling that each time you go, there is more and it is redder :(
I'm sorry I'm not helping anyone with their questions...just need to let off some steam. thanks for listening :)

Hi, I wanted to see if this thread would keep going. I am experiencing some of the same early bleeding and was wondering if anyone else had the same? I had two 5 day blasts transferred on Friday (feb 22), and yesterday, I started bleeding. It started out a rusty colour, then was brown mid morning. I wasn't super concerned because during my last fet I spotted around the same time and it stopped by the end of the day and resulted in a BFP (miscarried at 9 weeks however). But this time the bleeding got heavier and darker, then redder. It's never been as heavy as a period. I didn't have any bleeding at night or much in my panty liner, but every time I go to the washroom, it dripps into the toilet and its there when I wipe. I was also really crampy last night, like pulling on my uterus, and a little today. And I can feel my heart pounding when I stand up to go to the washroom...which was often yesterday.

I am taking Crinone and estrace. I never took Crinone before I used the other suppositories for progesterone, and now I am worried that my body didnt agree with the Crinone? Did this happen to anyone else, and did it still result in a BFP?
