IVF#2 4dp5t: Cramps…

Hello everyone.

Today is 4 days past 5 day transfer.  I’ve been doing fairly well with not hitting “Dr. Google” for every twinge and twang, but there are a few differences that I’ve noticed and am hoping mean great things.

Last night, I attended choir rehearsal in prep for our church’s Christmas concert this coming Sunday. I noticed that I felt a small wave of nausea throughout the day, but chucked it up to the progesterone. While standing in the choir loft, I suddenly received a cramp so sharp and sudden that I actually said an audible “ow”!  I didn’t feel it again for about forty-five minutes of so and then I felt a smaller one, slightly duller.  I thought that was odd, but didn’t want to do symptom spotting.

I guess I had pregnancy on the brain even if I wouldn’t admit it because I had some pretty vivid pregnancy dreams last night.  One that I remember well was the line progression on a series of four pregnancy tests.  Each day the line was darker.  I pray that’s our truth.

This morning, I was awakened from my sleep with some pretty strong menstrual-like cramps.  Yep, it feels just like AF is around the corner and I was a bit disappointed.  I thought…so much for that.  But I decided not to dwell on it.

I’ve had those cramps off and on most of the day.  I am really hoping that means good things.  I have backaches and a small amount of nausea as well.  I know from experience that all of these can come from the progesterone.  But I won’t lie and say I’m not hopeful.

I’m a bit tired tonight, so I won’t hold you guys.  Have a great evening and I will write again soon.
