I have a confession to make…

I have been posting a week after what’s actually been happening. I had my transfer on May 26, and beta on June 5th. I was trying to read into stupid things like a winery I discovered last year is out of the wine I wanted, so that must mean that I’m pregnant since I can’t drink. Or, Kim Kardashian is sharing her infertility struggle with the world, plus she’s pregnant now, so that MUST be a sign.  I’ve made it through my TWW without spotting like last time, so that must be a sign. My boobs still hurt, that must be a sign.

FET #1: TWW!

So here I am, PUPO. My two week wait is actually only nine days. I didn’t document my symptoms from the fresh transfer, so there’s not much to compare it to. All I remember was that I had cramps for the first few days, then my boobs hurt, then they stopped, and it was a BFN. But I’ve decided to keep track of my symptoms this time so I’ll have something to look back on. I’ve also skipped a few of my Bar Method classes “just in case”. I only skipped one class last time, but I did cheat during class.

My meds per day are:

• Three 2mg Estrace by mouth
• One 2mg Estrace vaginally
• Two 8% Crinone

Day 0 – 0DP6DT

Feel fine, kind of gassy, but that might be from the sushi.

Day 1 – 1DP6DT

Little bit of pinchy cramps, bloated

Day 2 – 2DP6DT

Felt fine in the morning, some pinchy cramps in the afternoon

Day 3 – 3DP6DT

Headache in the early afternoon, boobs are sensitive (maybe bra is too tight)

Day 4 – 4DP6DT

Bloated, a little bit of cramping, boobs are sensitive, but not painful like last time. Slept for 9 hours, and also took a two hour nap!! Hard exonerated strawberries which taste super sour to me, but they were apparently ok.

Day 5 – 5DP6DT

Super thirsty, dry mouth, very bloated, little bit of cramping, boobs are exploding out of my bra, a little tender.

Day 6 – 6DP6DT

Super thirsty again, boobs are a little more sore, huge blue veins going to my nipples, woke up to pee twice last night. Ate some cherries which again, tasted super sour to me.

Day 7 – 8 – 8DP6DT

Same as before. Boobs still tender, but not as sore as our fresh cycle. The veins seemed to have faded a little bit. Beta is tomorrow!!

Transfer day!

Yesterday was the big day!! I added Crinone six days ago, and I’m happy to say that it’s not as messy as Endometrin. My craziness has definitely subsided after two weeks on Estrace.
