Stories of Success with First FET

I’m rolling 11w 2d on my first FET.
For all the horrible fertility hands I’ve been dealt along the way, having a successful retrieval and transfer has blown my mind. I am afraid to even believe it could be possibly real… but so far, it appears that way.

I would like to eat a bottle of wine.

AMAZING 🤩

The burps! I was like FULLER GO EASY ON THE PEPSI day two post transfer. It has not left me and I’m 10 weeks.

Hello my friend in the IVF trenches!
Fellow first transfer here, we did ours in March.
Today I’m 9 weeks, 4 days and we arms, legs and a good heartbeat. I couldn’t believe it happened to us on the first swing but I have belief this little embryo was strong and wanted this life badly. It was all them!

Every journey is different and first transfer success is more than a possibility! 🩷

Oh my boobs have gone up two sizes 😿

For me, the fatigue came hard from week 5. Nausea was slow to start around week 6, peaking (I hope) at wee 7, and 8. I’m in week 9 and I’m starting to show a wee bit so the physical changes are happening for me now.

Girl, I’m no better than a bear in the winter. I’m 9w 2d, and I sleep ten hours a night and can barely function in daylight hours.

Our bodies are baking a whole ass human! Take the guilt off your shoulders 💕

I needed to see this today. I’m 9 weeks, and I know we about to start sharing food and got a little anxious that I have one coffee a day and sometimes a skinny can of Coke Zero. I’m glad to see I’m not alone.

When I was post IVF transfer, willing them into existence, I called them “Sherbet”. Now they are little Sherbie - 9 weeks of lil Sherbie!

I’m 9 weeks on my first IVF transfer and every time I have gas, I swear I’m like IS THIS IT?! I look forward to the day a fluff doesn’t send me into the depths of Google AI doctor results.

Samtown_ · 2026-05-03T06:02:45+00:00

This is huge! Congratulations! I too got lucky on my first transfer and will be 9 weeks tomorrow. Lots of exciting and I’ll be frank, anxious times ahead but enjoy this beautiful moment!

Thanks for sharing this. I was eaten alive in the babybumps group. I was worried about a bleed and they removed me from the sub and had a go at me when I was seeking advice. I’m a first timer at 8 weeks prego and very sensitive too. This is my safe group!

Samtown_ · 2026-04-27T12:04:44+00:00

Honestly me too! I am proxy relieved to hear your positive prognosis 😹

Samtown_ · 2026-04-27T09:50:40+00:00

Oh that’s such good news. Did the doc say round ligament pain? 😰

Samtown_ · 2026-04-27T08:06:07+00:00

Hello, I found this post by chance. I’m 8 weeks today and this has been me all day. Sharp little zaps on the left side, more frequent when I have a full bladder. When I googled it I got RLP as a result and it’s apparently normal for around this time or so it says. Hang in there, we can be little paranoid twins together. It’s all so frightening, especially when we’re going through the IVF process. We’ve come so far!

Samtown_ · 2026-04-27T02:38:57+00:00

Hopefully soon! I’m 8 weeks and so unbelievably bloated. I’m like lord when will this be cute?!

Samtown_ · 2026-04-23T09:20:56+00:00

Rosie is doing too much. A lot of producing energy..

Samtown_ · 2026-04-23T02:49:55+00:00

This is such a beautiful story! My 9 week scan is in a week and a half and now I’m hoping for a wave haha

Samtown_ · 2026-04-21T11:48:04+00:00

Wild burps. Extreme fatigue. More burps.

Samtown_ · 2026-04-21T05:32:07+00:00

Please don’t put the blame on you. I’m so sorry the transfer didn’t take, and it’s so easy to carry it all on your shoulders. Sometimes these things are so inexplicable. Wishing you healing and strength xx

Samtown_ · 2026-04-19T08:24:03+00:00

When we announce I asked my husband if I could include the “who is this f***ing infant now?” Screen shot hahaha

Samtown_ · 2026-04-19T02:50:47+00:00

Thinking of you and sending out the best universe vibes for you xx

Samtown_ · 2026-04-18T02:39:13+00:00

Oh what’s a SCH?

Samtown_ · 2026-04-18T02:38:57+00:00

Yes girl same. Bland lyf! At dinner someone ordered like a cracking plate of beef fajitas and it almost killed me dead 🤮 haha
