What the title says really.
I had a mc last cycle, started afresh on 28 december and am now 8dpo. Since 6dpo i have been having tingly breasts which is abit like hot (not boiling) water being poured over them. The last time they felt like that was when i breastfed my youngest. Whats the chances of this being a sign that i have concieved? I imagine if i have then it would only just have implanted and therefore cant be hcg causing it (frer says bfn).

Also can i have opinions on my chart, does it look like i have done all i can? I also used preseed and took my thyroid meds as prescribed.

My first sign is probably TMI bit I was checking cervix position and found my whole vagina felt very puffy and swollen from aboit 7dpo. I also very quickly had copious discharge when I'm usually dry.
I'm fairly sure I felt implantation (I'm aware this sounds batty) before BFP woth my first born around 10dpo I felt a one off weird tugging sensation in the general uterus area. With my last pregnancy I again felt this at 9dpo and though ooh I wonder but then felt the same thing at 10dpo so decided it was nothing, except it turned out I was having twins!
I've had a small implantation bleed woth every pregnancy (had 3 losses too) between around 10dpo and 12dpo. When I get light bleeding which then stops I barely need a test to be honest.

Hi, we're in almost identical positions. I had a miscarriage in December. Think I ovulated 10/11th January which puts me at 7/8 dpo. Yesterday and today I've had what I hope is implantation bleeding which is similar to my previous 2 pregnancies (1 successful, 1 not). In my pregnancy which miscarried my first symptom was heartburn followed by finding the smell of my wee unbearable Blush. I had to hold my breath on the toilet. I hope it works out for you! In my many hours googling early pregnancy symptoms I've seen the boob thing mentioned a number of times.

Hi all. @BergamotMouse I'm so sorry for your loss and I hope you don't mind me asking such a personal question but is there any chance you may have had a uti around the time you conceived? I only ask as I also miscarried in December (currently 4/5dpo) and what prompted me to test on that occasion was strong strange smelling urine. When I got my bfp I assumed that was what was causing the smell however I also had lower backache and over the following few days needed to use the toilet more often and had the whole 'burning' sensation. As a result my GP put me on antibiotics for a uti. He reckons that the antibiotics were safe to take during pregnancy and that my uti couldn't possibly cause a miscarriage but when I look back it doesn't half make me wonder if that was the cause. Fingers crossed for you again this cycle. Im so hoping to have conceived again but at the same time terrified that the same will happen again. Would feel so much happier if I knew what had caused it so I would know what to do/not to do/look out for next time round but sadly nature often keeps its secrets x

Hi Mamabear. Pretty sure I didn't have a UTI, just think my sense of smell became really strong. I could also smell the bin in the kitchen from a mile off.

Sorry to hear about your loss. It's so difficult because you don't get any answers. I don't really have any idea what happened with mine as the scan was a blur and I didn't really process what she was saying enough to ask the questions. I have so much I'd like to ask now.

On a more positive note I think I got the faintest possible positive today, so faint it's barely there but I keep mixing it up with negative tests to see if I can pick it out and I can every time. Really hoping it sticks and the line gets stronger.

I really hope you get good news soon. Try not to worry, so many people have told me of their similar experiences so I think it's common to have one loss so I'm sure it's nothing you did.

Just checking in on this thread, I’m currently
In the limbo waiting for AF which is due next Thursday but I’m not sure if I’m just imagining symptoms or if it’s just heightened pms symptoms ?? All a bit strange for me so would be good to read others comments on thisSmile

@surreygirl1987 I'm with you there hun 're symptom spotting.

I just wanted to add that I've never had a bfp so technically not an expert on this subject however I wanted to mention your chart looks fabulous well done and I'm sure that the temp rising is a good sign so fx xx
