I remember the stress about cramping and spotting. I was convinced that the ET hadn't worked or I was about to miscarry. I had cramping for about half of the first tri. I had 2 decent sized spots in the first 2 weeks after the ET, once after an u/s and the progesterone (crinone) seemed to accumulate and when it came out it was brownish/pinkish coloured.

I asked for multiple u/s throughout my first tri as I couldn't trust my body and believe that all was okay.

The whole first tri was extremely stressful.

Wishing you the best of luck!!
