| I had my FET yesterday. Doc & sonographer said it sent great. So is it normal that I'm on an emotional rollercoaster? I keep bursting into tears (which will be fabulous for going to work tomorrow). And how do you make it to the pregnancy test??? |

| Totally normal (sorry!). You will make it because you have to. Hang in there... |

If you're on meds (estrogen/progesterone), supposedly they cause your emotional rollercoaster....so very normal. Plus, you're emotional over what you're going through! Don't be hard on yourself...easier said than done, I know.
You'll make it through! Best of luck to you! Fingers crossed for you. |

| Good luck!! The 2ww is hard but you can do it. Just keep busy and try not to obsess too much. You can't really change the outcome now so just relax and try to focus on other things! |

| If you are on progesterone, as someone else said, just hang in there. To me that stuff is just evil as it 100% simulated all the effects of pregnancy for me in every way, yet I was a BFN. Like a cruel joke. I am not sure if there was anything I could have done to feel better during the 2ww. Nothing worked. It wasn't possible to distract myself from something so important. Sorry I'm not being more cheerful. Maybe a mini-vacation would help? |

Were you on Lupron before that? Lupron made me a crazy loon from heck. Then, to add estrogen and progesterone on top of that, plus the emotional stress of making all the monitoring appts and the FET procedure itself -- yeah, the whole thing is just a recipe for emotional disaster.
i'm sorry, OP. Be as kind to yourself as you can. |

| I'm in the 2ww now as well (day 5 woohoo!). It totally sucks, but you'll get through it. Giver yourself space and permission to be an emotional wreck. |

You can do it! You've made it so far already. Focus on getting through one day at a time. Google lists for "staying busy during the 2ww" or something -- I made a list of stuff I had to get done but had been putting off, then tried to get one thing done every day. Put aside 10-15 minutes a day to obsess over symptoms, signs, whatever, but limit yourself to those 10-15 minutes. And keep in mind that progesterone (if you're on it) WILL give you fake pregnancy symptoms, whether you are or aren't. That helped me a lot -- knowing that my sore boobs and bloating were the result of drugs -- because I knew it was useless to fret over "symptoms" or lack thereof.
Congratulations on getting this far. Just a little while longer. |
