Only 6DPO and I feel like I’m going crazy! Anyone else with me?

Hi hope you don't mind me joining! Been reading this thread for most of today. Congrats to those who have their BFP. So my partner and I just starting ttc this month and I'm 3 days dpo. Still getting used to this lingo 😂 Not expecting much this month as first month trying but guess only takes that 1 time 🤞 Anyway lovely to share this with you all as hard when not telling friends and family you're trying ❤️

Hello everyone,

I took a test today (couldn't wait any longer) and ofc BFN. I expected this as it is too early (8dpo)
I still don't have many symptoms, I am just bloated and gassy (tmi).

AF is due next week Thursday and I am planning to test again on Sunday.
Has anyone tested today?

Haha, I've been lerking since we decided to start TTC 😅 @LadyJane18

@lottieb92 yeah dtd couple of days before when flo said and then on the date I'm thinking I ovulated.

Can't believe we are fully synced!

The puppy wakes me up so that will probably stop me from remembering to poas as sometimes it's like 5am recently. She's in season so she seems to need a wee more 😅

I may poas Sunday. Symptoms I've had are:-
Waves of nausea last weekend, and a little this morning. But not sure if I'm imagining it 🤔

Definitely having dizzy spells but I know I'm low on vitamin D, and that makes me dizzy so could be that.

Then I had mini cramps not painful just barely noticeable for quite a few days from CD 9. So not sure why because we only started trying CD8 so surely isn't a symptom. Then a few twinges like you know when your eye twitches like that sensation.

See definitely chill and not symptom obsessed 🤣😅

@lottieb92 @Stardust89
Ahh it really is exciting 😄 I’ve spent months reading through these threads and finally decided to sign up, glad I have :)
I did two tests today for some strange reason, no will power whatsoever! Both negative so will try hold off till Sunday too which will be 12DPO🙂 no symptoms, will have to check in with yous Sunday fingers crossed for yous.
@Stardust89 same as lottie I’ve heard that too so fingers crossed :)

Thanks lovely that’s very true x

@Cafeaulait27 I know what you mean I took a early clear blue and a first response at the same time both non digital. the first response was negative and the clear blue very light line but definitely there. Significant Other is now worried I'm miscarrying (doesn't understand that different people react to different tests at different speeds) meanwhile I'm nauseous as hell and have very sore almost purple nipped ect. I think I am just a slow to shown on tests testing again in a few days.

Also @ChristmasJumpers with my first, nipples were the only thing I noticed, the wind used to cut through them and I would wince in pain 🤣😅

Hey @LadyJane18 and @Stardust89! It’s so exciting yet strange when you find your cycle sister online haha! Period due 11th, ovulation was 26th!
I did some early tests too, which was silly really as I have no symptoms but we all do it! Both negatives which is fine. I know I will test again Sunday anyway... I won’t feel bad for it 🤣 It’s our first month so I’m sure the novelty will wear off soon enough should I not get my sticky bean this time.

@Stardust89
If you DTD before those dates and after you think you ovulated you’re still in the game, I hear if you DTD before ovulation the little fellas that meet your egg are more likely to give a girl, it’s still 50:50 of course but still fun to play that guessing game!

Best of luck to you both! 🥰 don’t forget you’re not out until AF arrives. So stay strong even if you don’t see a result this weekend x

@Stardust89 sounds like we have the same cycle :) also due AF 11th feb
I ovulated 26th January too.

What symptoms have you had? I’m slightly worried I haven’t had any just the odd twinge which I probably wouldn’t notice if I was constantly symptom spotting haha x

Hi everyone,

Congrats to everyone on their BFP's!

This is our first cycle TTC, AF is due 11th, I'm pretty regular it's very unusual for me to go into 30 days.

Not sure when I ovulated, I don't really track just started to track CM on Flo app, which suspected 28th Jan, but my CM was watery on Saturday 30th, sorry tmi. so not sure if that was actually the date I ovulated?

We didn't bd on 26/27/28/29 due to him being poorly, so not sure if we missed the chance this month, and too scared to test at the moment.

We are supposed to be chillaxed about it but symptom spotting & googling like mad.. 😂

Hi everyone :) hope you don’t mind me jumping on, I’m new here so still getting my head around all the meanings! @IndaFlowers @lottieb92 I will also be 12dpo on Sunday my AF is due 11th ive tested today at 10dpo bfn :( had no symptoms at all really just sharp twinges here and there. It’s our first time TTC (although it feels longer as I’ve still mad tested in the past) feel like it’s taking over me and I’m wishing my life away waiting for a bfp, it’s nice to know I’m not alone with how I’m feeling, can be difficult to explain to the other half sometimes.
Good luck to you all will be nice to see how everyone gets on :) xx

AF due Sunday for me too so I'm not testing until then after yesterday's BFN. Has anyone experienced very sensitive nipples? My boobs are still less sore than usual before AF but my nipples have been sensitive to the slightest touch since yesterday. I could barely put a bra on this morning!

@IndaFlowers exactly the same as me, I will be 12 DPO on Sunday, well done for holding out, baby dust to you!

Major congrats again all positive ladies, no disputing a digi 🥳

P.s I wish my Flo app would stop telling my my period is due soon as if I’m not obsessing enough hahah

@Jordie24 yay!!! I'm going to buy one today and do it in the morning

@Jordie24 good morning!!

I'm going to hold off testing again until Sunday as I will be 12 dpo then. Yesterday was a BFN. AF isn't due until 9/10th so I'm still hopeful 😀

@cafeaulait27 that's so funny my husband is like it should be two full lines haha I was trying to explain its because I'm testing early and that it still means pregnant but I think the clear blue how many weeks one will help him understand haha

@Jordie24 morning! Agreed, digitals are so helpful at making it feel real! My husband keeps asking me ‘please can you explain again why it’s not a dark line’ lol. Why do men always think it doesn’t count until it’s as dark as the control line?!

Make you you post a pic when you test with the digi 😊

@Cafeaulait27 yeah i think my friends had to get a letter from their GP to confirm pregnancy when registering for the hospital. So i will do that next week. I am praying the next few weeks go smoothly and think we will tell our close family at 7 weeks (when heartbeat starts) as i read the risks are significantly less after that.

I have to force myself to stay away from buying anymore tests now haha Its just addictive to see that line grow stronger

@willow2021 ah ok, it might depend on your area but for my area (Sussex) there’s no need to book a gp appointment, you just fill in a self referral form online and then a midwife contacts you within 2 weeks.

It would be lovely to keep in touch with you all! Hope that we get more BFPs on here soon xxx

@Jordie24 congrats!!!

Oh my.. so many good news.. I really hope this means good luck for the rest of us.

@Pitstop1986 sorry to hear that but you have a healthy attitude. I feel that it was so so much easier for our parents.. they didn't worry with tests and symptom tracking. This is just driving us crazy but is so hard not to. I am reading all the articles out there. Somebody stop me!

Oooh this is looking like a lucky thread 🤞
Congratulations to those with BFPs so far!

@cafeaulait27 ok great to know. I was going to make a doctors appointment for next week once af due date has passed and then hopefully go from there.
