7 DPO - anybody else?

Hello!
So I'm 7 DPO today and slightly concerned that I've not been feeling any different to usual..?!

Last month I sadly had a chemical pregnancy, but did definitely feel different through the TWW that time around.

  • nausea
  • off my food
  • sick
  • stomach cramping
  • soo tired!

This time I feel absolutely fine - I'm wondering if maybe I'm out this month..

This is the first month that DP and I have decided to use the self insemination method..

Would love to chat to anyone else that's in the same position as me! 💓💪

@Feminmister ahh good luck - you're still in with a shot! Implantation may not have happened yet 💓
I keep trying to remind myself that like you said, not many people actually do feel different this early on! So fingers crossed for us all.

Self insemination is a method where you personally insert the sperm into you as close to the cervix as possible, as opposed to DTD naturally. We tried this, this month because I've sadly pulled a muscle in my lower back and couldn't possibly DTD the usual way! 😆🤦‍♀️ xx

@AKcheer hey lovely! All the best and fingers crossed for you!
I keep trying to remind myself that not everyone (in fact not many people at all) get symptoms this early so I'm sure we are still in with a shot! 💓

Yes it would be great to hear how everyone gets on. Is everyone testing on Monday or waiting longer? I’m going to try and hold on to Monday now but may break on Sunday because I’m the least patient person in the world.

I’m also 7dpo and obsessing about lack of symptoms. Although I think the key time is more 10dpo. I was tracking my temperature but stopped doing it as couldn’t face obsessing over something else Smile

It would be great to hear how you all get on.

@lockdownroundtwo what is the self insemination method? Good luck for this month.

Feminmister · 06/11/2020 19:02

I’m 7dpo and feel totally normal but I can reassure you that I have three kids and have had four pregnancies before and I felt normal until at least 10 dpo with all.

I took a test this morning stupidly. Negative. I am trying to stay positive.

Hey guys I’m also 7DPO. I feel normal too. I’m tired but I’ve had such a crazy work week and have worked the most ridiculous hours but yeah. I feel normal. I think implantation happens between 6 and 10 dpo. Definitely not had any cramps yet. Just feel normal!

I'm determined to try not to test until at least 9/10DPO. I've only got one test left now and it's a CB digital so I'd rather use it if I'm sure I could be pregnant.. there's nothing worse than seeing 'not pregnant' 😟

I've got a blood test next week with the doctors as I've been feeling quite achey and unwell / off my food the last few weeks but other than that, absolutely fine. Maybe they'll pick up pregnancy if we are lucky this month! X
