Hey guys

My partner and I had unprotected sex last Saturday (2nd May) so yesterday I had cramping (not like period pain) sort of twitching and a dull ache! Also feel shattered and urinating frequently! Is 7 days after sex (was my ovulation date last Saturday 2nd May)

Today I feel exhausted, I’ve forced myself to eat but I feel sick not like I’m going to be sick, but nauseous! Also my areoles seem to have got bigger in size? Would it be too soon?

@Stopmenow123 I could bet when you're praying, hoping and excited it's quite hard to wait and not symptom spot to be honest ...

@Pol96 I definitely feel different very very emotional ! I don't have a test would it not be too soon to test?

I definitely had symptoms around a week after ovulating.

Could you not just wait till your period is late?

Some times you can implant as early as 6 days so it's not impossible. Have you got a test to take? Good luck 🤞
