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 am also new to this site. Just wondering if anyone has had a successful pregnancy after heavy bleeding 7dpt? I had 2x 3det on Jan 19 and only had slight cramping and tender boobs. On 7dpt I had very heavy bleeding with clots and it is still heavy today. Mr Dr. said to stay on the progesterone and estrogen until my blood test on Feb 4 but feels it probably didn't work. Any luck with other situations like this? Thanks

Hi Noona27,

What did you end up doing after this? I ask because the same exact thing happened to me and I don't know where to go from here

That's ok :). We all need to take a break now and then.  I don't have a lot of advice, just drink a lot of water, and be positive :). FYI, I did donor embryos, so my twins are from an fet :). Good luck, and keep us up to date through out the month to come :)
