Symptom Spotting madness!

Thought I'd start a thread about this mad symptoms us ladies seem to be getting.

This can be a place to share what you are feeling, also any funny crazy ones too!

Look forward to seeing what people are feeling! Also think it might help us feel not as a lone.

My biggest at the moment is feeling almost like wet down there it's v odd!! 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

@gingerglitter4ever yes tested yesterday and bfn so my advice to you is just don't do it haha. I feel like shit today, my back is aching on one side, I'm in a terrible mood and i want to cry. AF due tomorrow so have a feeling she's gonna hit hard.

@Elmlee
About 4 months I know it's early days but still :( they don't tell you what it's like coming off the pill.

@Sitchervice have you been off your contraception long?
I was on the pill for years so think my cycles are just all over the place. Who knows if and what's right 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

I've decided I'll give us another month and I'll book a doctor's appointment if nothing has changed. Currently on CD47 though 🤦🏻‍♀️

I'm dreading doctors though cause they will literally just be like lose weight and I know I need to... but it will just stress me out.

Hey @Twitchett22! I think we’re on many of the same threads! And I feel you! I share a lot of your symptoms, currently at 11 DPO.. these headaches are driving me nuts! And I’m super duper hydrated so it can definitely not be that.. they come in waves for me.. I also feel like hippo, which seems to only subside after my spinning classes haha! Have you done any tests yet? I don’t know if I will test before AF (due mon) And I’m really trying to hold off

@Elmlee

Hi.

I'm 27 and hubby is 29. We've been together 6 years. No children and my sister had fertility issues so it's possible runs in the family.

I haven't been hormone tested but I've had an op and they said I look clear on the inside.

Im now 2 days late of AF. :/ only symptoms are bloating and nipple sensitive not pain.

@Sitchervice it's such a horrible feeling... I want to try and be positive but it's just crazy every time I've never tested it's just always been negative.

Tell me some stuff about you :-) @Sitchervice...
How old are you?
How long have you been with your partner?
Have you got any children already?

😊

@Twitchett22 good luck to you we are literally a day apart!

@ElizabethBennet3rd you are alittle nuts! 8 is very very very early!

A lot of people say to get a really accurate result test day of missed period or a day or 2 after.

I've taken 2 I did one at 10 and it was negative I'm pretty sure though I'm out.

Anybody else have a horrible niggling feeling that they feel they will never see a bloody second line 😔😔😔

Hi all, glad I've found this thread!
13dpo today. AF due tomorrow. Had varying 'symptoms' like feeling nauseous, full belly, little stabbing pains in my side, back ache. Now i feel constipated and getting small cramps but definitely in one side rather than all over. Also had lots of headaches and increased CM. No idea if any of this is normal for me pre AF became I obviously just haven't paid attention to my body before 😂
Took a FRER yesterday and bfn. Wasn't FMU though but still not feeling hopeful.

ElizabethBennet3rd · 20/02/2020 17:33

Ordered some tests ready as I’m getting impatient- so decided no harm in taking the one left in the house since more arriving tomorrow (yes I know I’m crackers at 8DPO) - however!!!! I actually see a faint line when I shine a light on it it’s quite clear. I don’t think you can see it in the pics...thoughts?

Hey Ladies, nice to see I'm not a lone in regards to symptoms.
I'm 12 DPO according to my app but who knows 🤷🏻‍♀️
My Flo is apparently due to visit the 22nd so going to wait to test until then. I did test 10DPO with a cheap test and it was negative so I'm thinking I'll be out... but who knows xxx

Hi all hope you don't mind if I join. I'm two days late and so far all I'm feeling is bloated. Nipples a little sensitive not sore or ache! As in they are there. I've been feeling a little sick. Especially after some one wafted a pot noodle around me. But that's it. To scared to take test incase BFN! 😭

gingerglitter4ever · 20/02/2020 14:19

This is the third day in a row I’ve had a fuzzy pressure headache in the morning, I feel super bloated and gross from the waist down, just like generally heavy... and my appetite is really weird, sometimes not hungry sometimes (like last night I wanted everything but couldn’t decide in the end what) and finally had super watery cm (like wet my underwear need a panty liner situation) currently 11 DPO ...

ElizabethBennet3rd · 20/02/2020 14:15

How is everyone feeling today?
My absent sore boobs made an appearance today (usually have them from CD20 and today is CD25). Weirdly, I have the (extreme) soreness but without the usual heavy/fullness that I usually get. No idea if this is any sort of symptom but I really want it to be!

gingerglitter4ever · 19/02/2020 22:44

1-6 DPO (days post ovulation) nothing noticeable
7-8 DPO (days post ovulation) light cramping in waves accompanied by a slight temp drop

9 DPO (days post ovulation) -headache in the morning
-drinking A LOT of water but my urine smells super strong
-cried in bed about something in a tv show, I’m a sucker but this was a lot even for me
-nausea spell in the middle of the night

10 DPO (days post ovulation)
-woke up again with a pressure headache
-drinking A LOT of water but my urine smells super strong
-increased appetite but have NO CLUE what I actually want to eat..

Lucindaa · 19/02/2020 22:09

@bethj123 yea same, bloated but no other symptoms at 5/6dpo

inahaze · 18/02/2020 16:09

10 dpo here..... cried a lot today..... feeling mega fat and bloated. could be PMT or could be pregnant..... mother nature's not fair sometimes

bethj123 · 18/02/2020 16:04

Forgot to mention bloated since ovulation!

bethj123 · 18/02/2020 16:01

Hello everyone! I'm only 4-5dpo but just feel different this month, but I know its too early! For the past 2 night i have been having leg aches down my left leg, also funny taste in mouth and few little cramps.
Hate the 2ww!!
Xx

Elsie2211 · 18/02/2020 14:17

Hi @Elmlee!

It's the not knowing that I hate: have I ovulated, when did I ovulate; could i be pregnant, how many days DPO.

I am tracking DTD, symptoms, etc on Flo but haven't tracked temperature or used OPKs as I was meant to be taking the relaxed approach... let me tell you I am anything but relaxed haha

@Elsie2211 good luck with your testing!

It's horrible isn't it!?

My throat it's just so so dry... I'm wondering weather I'm just not drinking enough 😔

Not sure when I'm going to test... might just wait until day my flo is apparently due xx

Elsie2211 · 18/02/2020 10:07

Hi ladies

I have no idea where I am in my cycle as I had my nexplanon removed at the end of January. I have been DTD at least every other day... BFN on Friday but here are some of my symptoms:

Vivid dreams
Feeling wet
Blocked sinuses
Headaches

I am planning to test again at the weekend

Hey ladies thanks for joining 🥰
I'm apparently 9DPO!
But who knows with my cycles at the moment they are all over since coming off the pill.

Had a very positive opk though so think I definitely ovulated then!

I've done a number on my back cleaning yesterday, I'm on total agony so that's masking any usual back aches or lower pelvis pains I usually have been feeling.

Nipples definitely feel more tender though 🤷🏻‍♀️
