Hi, I had bfp 11 dpo with ds1 I think, and I think I tested about 14 dpo after ds2. Ds1 was ivf so I was going mad with waiting, but ds2 was a natural out of the blue miracle. Though I did buy a huge bag of salt & vinegar crisps the day before I tested with ds2 so I think that was an early craving as I craved salt & olives. I'm currently also on 2 ww after a frozen embryo transfer which was done on tuesday, I think I am 5 dpo today. Not feeling the slightest bit different though. How many dpo are you? Good luck!

Goingmad- it's pain/discomfort around your abdominal area during ovulation, I.e. As the egg is released. Only a few women are lucky enough to experience this. I've never been privy to this so feel cheated!

with dd1, didnt know i was pregnant till i was 5 weeks gone (unplanned but wasnt on the pill etc so we said see what happens), it was the tiredness i had as was at a new year house party, i bought loads of ale but couldnt drink it as was so shattered and in bed by 1230am.

dd2 (planned), thought someone had stabs me in my boob at 7dpo, found out at 9dpo.

now just found out yesterday at 12dpo that im expecting dc3 (planned), had very sore stabbing feel boobs all over from 1dpo, nausea, sick burps, metallic taste, my sense of smell is vvvvvvvv strong and had a sharp pain backache (ive had none of these in my 2 prev pregs, apart from boobs). i was testing from 7dpo and got nothing then the lines on the cheapie sticks was becoming darker and darker, even now (from yesterday) it is still faint. i also used 2 cb digital, used one for the first morning urine and was not pregnant so i held in for another 3.5 hours and got pregnant.

Thanks everyone:)

I am currently cd27 but probably only 7dpo got bfn yesterday but sense of smell maybe increased and boobs feel biggerish!! Lol I've had crampy feelings for the last couple of days and knees achy which I get before af.

I can't remember what symptoms befor my previous bfp's will have to wait and see :)

Goingmadtrying, you're keen on the pee sticks! No wonder you got a bfn if you tested so early! I'm 6 dpo today & aiming to test next wed on dpo 11 & I'm not working that day either, so that will give me time to take in either good or bad news. How old are your dc's? How you feeling about the possibility of a third?

DPO - 13

Symptoms - none

BFP - about 20 minutes ago

( I am not as calm about this as this post might suggest)

I have 2 ds's too, age 4&2. I know what you mean about being nervous about another baby altering things, my boys get on so well so I hope another one would fit right in. I think work will crack up too if I get pg but hey ho!

The only early symptom I had was more pronounced montgomery's tubercules (the little bumps on your areola). Then a very faint line about 11 dpo and a bfp 14 dpo.

Good luck goingmad :)

Was planning to test after 14DPO. 15 DPO I was sitting doing MN (!) and suddenly got a wave of metal taste and my tea tasted revolting!

Even though it was 3pm went upstairs and did an old test I had in the drawer - BFP!

Morning ladies cd32 today no sign of af yet, did a test this
morning although not sure can be classed as fmu as went to loo a few hours before during the night??? It was bfn. Cycles usually between 36-40 do you think I'm still in with any chance???

Depends on how many dpo you are! Good luck. Fingers crossed for your BFP x

WishingIWasLucky · 19/10/2011 21:58

I think 14 dpo+ is supposed to be the most reliable- and certainly test on your longest expected cycle day. You'll need an iron will to wait until then! I'll keep my fingers crossed. X

At 10dpo I felt like my period was coming. By 13dpo it still hadn't come so I tested and got a BFP.

Hope you still have a chance goingmad. I just wanted to update- I started feeling twinges in my lower LHS around 7 dpo, had weird dreams & was tired and totally narky. I tested 9dpo and got a BFN, but when I fished it out the bin the next day it was a BFP! I have since done another 4 tests and they are all BFP's!
