So yesterday was 5dpo and I had cramping across front like period pain but not as sharp, and lower back pain potentially some spotting but only slight. Today 6dpo heartburn, tmi-looser than normal stool, nipples so sore, and slight sicky feeling like its there but is not coming up! Anyone else madly symptom spotting in the 2ww?

I'm game. Today I am 7dpo and it is only the second cycle where I have actually ovulated this year (I have PCOS). This is the first month we managed to time sex correctly with ov so I am massively symptom spotting!

I have tender breasts, sore nipples and bloating but that is normal for me in before af. I don't have the usual cramps or oily skin though...and I had a very mild case of thrush since 3DPO which I haven't had since my teens (am now 32) so I am massively trying not to think it is all a sign!

I will! I am 7 dpo and experiencing the odd cramp and generally feeling a bit woolly headed. We aren't trying but managed to have unprotected sex the day before ovulation. I would like another so am crossing everything I've got

Hello, Can I join?! Not sure when exactly I ovulate but am using Ovia and it says this week is my fertile week so going by that my 'peak' days have been this weekend. We have been dtd regularly over the last few weeks anyway (yay for holidays!) so hopefully this makes me in the two week wait?! Fingers crossed for everyone. I've actually been feeling 'different' since Monday when I had weird crampy type pinging pains which I wrote off as overthinking but past couple of days it's hard to describe... I just feel 'heavy' in my lower abdomen and slightly cramping. Could be my body just doing its normal thing without being pregnant though...this is our first month of trying so not getting my hopes up. Xx

Ooooo, can I play too?!

It's my first month on clomid and I've ovulated...had many many scans which confirmed it, as it my clearblue advanced fertility monitor.

I'm 10 dpo, I've had cramps, sore nipples and a generally hard stomach...usually I'm a little squidgy! Wore a pad last night and today as I was sure AF was coming due to the cramps and have found a little bit of pink staining on it today! Foul moods too!

Had LOTS of sex over the fertile window so fingers crossed. Good luck to you all xxx

How many dpo are you ladies? I have been getting some pinching in my right side, and have heartburn like a bitch (last time I had heart burn that I remember was when I was pregnant).

Fingers crossed for everyone.
I am going between looking up a due date and planning my mat leave to thinking I can't possibly be pregnant.
My head is a mess, can't wait till next week so I know.
With my first I didn't know anything about ovulation and cycles etc but happily managed to time it right. It was a lot less stressful

8DPO today. I have the odd pinch in my uterus area, especially if I move suddenly, sore nipples and that is it. No other symptom of af or anything else. Are you guys temping?

8 DPO today as well. Bloated (or maybe that was the cheese), lots of cm leading to what I can only describe as fanny farts, no libido at all, and oh so slightly sore boobs. We're on our 7th cycle, so a BFP this month would be lovely. Still, 8 DPO is too early to POAS.... right?

I'm 10 DPO and feel bloated and my boobs feel bigger. I have a few cramps too-but these were worse a few days ago. I don't know if I feel pregnant or not!
I did an early test today (said could read up to 6 days early) but was a BFN. I'm not surprised as with DC1 I didn't get a positive until I was 5 weeks pregnant (so about 7 days after missed period). But by the start of that week I knew I was pregnant as had loads if symptoms.
Good luck everyone! It would be great if there were lots of BFP in the next two weeks!

I'm 8dpo today. My boobs feel heavier but that's normal for me at this point in my cycle.

I've had no symptoms whatsoever (is it a bit early yet?).

This morning I had a bit of bleeding from my gums when I brushed my teeth but I very occasionally get that anyway (haven't had it for a few years now though).

Pocopearl I'm 7 days dpo ish and have exactly the same symptoms but keep thinking I'm just symptom spotting! I usually suffer with slightly sore boobs just before AF but not for this long and not the other symptoms. Hoping it's not just wishful thinking! fx for a bfp next weekend Grin

9DPO now. Yesterday evening I had a tiny amount of dark brown cm in my undies, and my temp has dropped a bit today but still well above the cover line. Nothing else except usual cramps.

I don't have any spots though and usually get one the week before my af...so there is hope yet!

I'm 6 dpo and had awful headaches and a small amount of indigestion nothing else as yet, perhaps a little bloating. Very small amount of light cramping which is unusual for this point in my cycle, it's only month two of trying.

I am 8dpo and having cramps headache, lower back ache. I did a p test and negative - obv, but did an opk test and the line on there is getting a little stronger (enough for it to still be negative but it must be picking up some hormone to get any second line). I feel like this could be my month... How is everyone else doing?

I'm 7dpo and tired, weepy and extremely cold. I suspect I'm just a bit ill but we'll see!

Can I join in with sympton spotting!! Been hanging around Lurking in the shadows, hoping if I didn't post I wouldn't go too mental (no chance).
Ttc1, currently 10dpo, I think.
No idea really when I ovulated. Normally cd16 but after a manic few weeks I seem to have missed ovulation. But boobs started to ache around cd14 which normally happens straight after ov.

Anyway I figure I am 10dpo. Been getting slight acid reflux, dizzyness and increased smell. Went mental last night because father in law was eating doritos in another room to me and they stank lol.
Had really painful af cramps this morning and ended up with about an hour of spotting. So think I'm out this month. But mind is going mad and has convinced me it's implantation bleeding!

Need reassuring that im not actually insane lol.

Thanks!! Xx

7dpo and the headaches are still there, more cramping but not horrid just there but no spotting. Very watery CM in fact thought I had wet myself or started af waaay early but nope. Another week of waiting though :(

I'm now 12 DPO and really want to test! I have one here but the sensible thing is to wait until the morning-and the more sensible thing is to wait until Tuesday or Wednesday! I don't have any more symptoms really but maybe am a bit more gassy, and emotional-but that is a common PMT symptom for me too.
I hope people update if their symptoms turned out to be a BFP!

My symptoms seem to have disappeared so now I am confused. I think I'm 12dpo but too scared to test! I am due af on Wednesday so I'm trying to hold on til then. Anyone else poas yet?

I tested yesterday and got a bfn. I've not got any symptoms and I'm due af on Wednedsay.

I'm going to just wait and not bother testing again.

I am due today and have just tested. There is the faintest of faint lines on there but it took a while to show up. It's definitely blue though.
I bought a pack of two so I will test again in the morning. I'm trying not to get my hopes up just in case.

I'm convinced af will arrive today. All the signs are there.
