HELLO THERE.

THANKS FOR WRITING.

YES YOU COULD BE PREGNANT IF YOU HAVE MISSED YOUR PERIODS.

URINE TEST TURNS POSITIVE GENERALLY AFTER THE FIRST DAY OF MISSED PERIOD OR MAY TAKE UPTO A WEEK TO BE POSITIVE WHEN PREGNANCY HORMONES ARE HIGH ENOUGH FOR THE KITS TO DETECT.

YOU MAY REPEAT THE TEST IN A WEEK'S TIME.

ALSO CRAMPING IS A COMMON SIDE EFFECT OF EMBRYO TRANSFER. THIS OCCURS DUE TO MANIPULATION OF THE CERVIX TO INSERT THE EMBRYOS.

SORE BREASTS COULD BE DUE TO THE PROGESTERONE TABLETS WHICH ARE PRESCRIBED FOR LAST 14DAYS AFTER EMBRYO TRANSFER.

HOWEVER IF YOUR PAIN GETS SEVERE OR YOU DO NOT MENSTRUATE , YOU NEED TO CONSULT YOUR GYNECOLOGIST.

TAKE CARE.
