Hello everyone,

first time posting on a board!

42yrs....my husband and I just had our first round of IVF. After 8 days of stims only produced ONE egg however it was a mature and beautiful one which fertilized and developed nicely. After 5 days we did a fresh transfer on 2/4 Super Bowl Sunday! I’ve been having menstrual like cramps, trying to stay positive. Beta test is on 2/13. The 2ww has been a roller coaster of emotions.

I have no words of wisdom, been through it. There is sure a chance that its implant cramps, keep hopeful, will keep my fingers crossed. Hugs

Thank you so much for your kind words.
Will post an update after test.

I had lots of cramping with my daughter. I was really surprised that it worked! And I continued to cramp until about 14 weeks! I think its a good sign! Let us know how tomorrow goes!

Yeaterday was a very difficult day but my husband and I are trying to stay positive no matter the outcome.
Thanks for sharing your experience and I will update tomorrow.

Hi!! Good luck tomorrow - did you test at home first? I had my first frozen transfer on 2/6 and this 2ww is making me crazy. I've had cramps as well at first.. Sending you good thoughts!!

lilie315 we decided not to test at home since I hear it may give you false positive or vice versa. Let’s see what the blood test reveals tomorrow. Good luck to you too and let me know your results.
