Hi everyone - just looking for some guidance.

Positive ovulation test last week, currently day 10 after testing.
This week my boobs have changed a lot (red, sore, changed colour and shape) even my partner has noticed the difference so at least I know I’m not going insane!
Feeling like I have something in my throat that’s going to make me gag but never do, suffering with heightened smell (I had to leave the office yesterday as all I could smell was coffee that wouldn’t normally bother me).

I checked online to see the earliest I could take a test which is the 18th this Sunday, but during this two week wait my patience couldn’t wait any longer so I did a digital today and it was negative.
After looking online it says it’s progesterone and estrogen which causes sore boobs not a build up of HCG.
I 100% know it’s not period symptoms as if anything all I get is cramps and emotional.

Learned my lesson and will wait until I can genuinely test but just looking for reassurance to know I’m not the only one experiencing this.

If anyone could give me some reassurance/guidance l, thoughts or advice that would be greatly appreciated x

Digital test are not as sensitive as normal early detection tests.

@lizziecat1 thank you! Fingers crossed it’s a happy ending!

The waiting is awful isn’t it that’s why I couldn’t resist a digital test today but my body is telling me I am in a strange way although it was a negative, guess impatient me will have to wait a little longer!

hope your journeys going okay ❤️ what stage are you at?

Isn't the waiting awful! Hang on in there - only a few days til you can find out what's going on. Your symptoms sound promising - I really hope they are pregnancy symptoms! But all sorts can trick us when we're waiting to test. Good luck, and let us know your results at the weekend!

Oh forgot to say my discharge is thin and milk/watery like too!
