The previous OPs have gotten their BFPs so I have cheekily created this one just hoping that I could get lucky. Hahaha. 😅 Silly, right ?
A bit about me - currently trying to conceive baby No.2 and this is my 4th postpartum cycle.
So I wish everyone good luck and lots of baby dust! 🤞

All good signs!!!! I mean the symptoms are driving me up the wall and seem to have developed nausea and further soreness of boobs too as well as a niggling back ache.

I know about the testing it’s just so hard to resist! I actually just took one now…

What do we think ladies - BFP or not? The second line is far to the left and the test looks weird but the test line appeared just seconds after the control line so I’m hoping. This is the same test under different lighting.

I see it!! 🤞🏼

I normally get vivid dreams but I’ve been getting up at crazy hours needing the bathroom - have woken up with nausea today.

I’m trying to stay calm right now, I want a clearer line before I tell DH.

Are you still getting the pulling/pinching? My main symptoms have been the pinching cramps and the boob soreness which has now progressed to both sides pretty constantly whereas before it was mainly the left every so often. What DPO are you on now?

I don’t track BBT but have been feeling very warm overnight too - had no issue sleeping in the heatwave the last few nights so this is a new one for me.

I see it! The first test is clearer, and I don’t mean the far left line the rest line is there very very faintly! Have you been sleeping ok? I’ve been having vivid dreams and waking up. But again I do get that in luteal phase sometimes too

Do you know what, I’m feeling the exact same as you describe now…. This afternoon had some light pulling cramps, very faint, in my lower back on each side. Then thought I was imagining it, then it happened again but nothing since. I’m DPO 5 today.
DPO8 is very early to get even the faintest positive, give it another couple of days if you can.xx

Thank you! I sometimes feel like they’re there and after feel like I’m imagining them. Caved and took a FRER test which obviously came back negative - I thought I saw something at first but it must have been the dye moving through and even now it looks either blank or like an indent. I might try again with FMU tomorrow and then leave it for a few days if it’s negative. I know it needs time I’m only 8DPO

This boob soreness is intense but I’m not really having any other symptoms and the mucus has stopped too.

Don’t feel silly, the symptoms do come and go, and the cramps are a good sign! I had the same on the pregnancy with my daughter, was in tears saying I’m not pregnant as had no symptoms, then got the twinkly cramps then nothing… then DPO 10 had strong symptoms and tested, got a faint positive that my husband couldn’t see 😅 then DPO 11 it was there. Hoping for you!! 🙏🏼

Anyone come down with a weird cold/ sore throat before their bfp? I remember this happening before baby # 1 but now at 8dpo for ttc baby #2 obviously symptom spotting everything!

ByAquaFox · 28/05/2026 08:57

@Chellooo I'm so happy for you! That's a good strong line aswell ♥️

DancingThroughLife02 · 28/05/2026 07:30

I’m doing the same as you but I also get really bad ovulation pain which I’m using as day 0 - this did end up happening the day after my peak.

I’m not sure if I’m overthinking but I told my husband last night that I actually thought I was pregnant. The boob soreness has taken a new level and a got a huge amount of lotion-like CM which is so unlike me this time of month as well as consistent pulling cramps.

Feeling a bit silly now as woken up on 8DPO not feeling much of anything again. Might do a test tomorrow even though I wanted to wait a bit longer but I know I’ll be disappointed if it’s negative.

Ladies.... help... am I going mad.... do you see anything? Im 10dpo and this is evening urine, but dare I hope?
We've been trying for a year after a loss at 18 weeks so im petrified but, could this be a glimmer?

Yesssss congratulations!!!!

Ooh hoping it’s good news for you! I’m DPO4 today. How are you counting your DPO by the way, as I got my positive OPK on Friday, so then assume ovulation Saturday & counting from Sunday? I don’t think I have any symptoms for definite, but have felt a few ovary twinges, but that could just be luteul phase like you mentioned 🤷🏼‍♀️

Jumping in! Heyyy! First month ttc. Mirena removed on 13th may. Positive opk already and I'm technically 4dpo i had a little bleed on ovulation day which stopped a day or so later. Had a few twinges around that time aswell. We shall see but I am driving myself crazy and don't expect to fall this morning the due to it being first one since mirena.

Goodenoughmummyme · 27/05/2026 16:26

7dpo and its going so slowly. Also no symptoms but just trying to remind myself that doesnt mean anything!

Riverofhope · 27/05/2026 15:01

DancingThroughLife02 · 27/05/2026 09:20

7dpo today - not feeling too much other than my breasts looking a bit swollen but that does happen in the luteal phase anyway. It’s gone quiet for me symptom wise after those twinges I had over the last couple of days so I’m really hoping HcG is building up.

How’s everyone doing/what DPO is everyone on and what symptoms (if any)?

Hello, tentatively joining if that’s ok. We weren’t going to Ttc for a second but had an accidental pregnancy in February which ended in April as a missed miscarriage with d and c. I got my period back this month and cycle day nine today. The loss made us want to try again although we are hesitant because with my lovely son he was born early and had a long and frightening hospital stay (we are very very lucky to have him now as a happy, if slightly underweight three year old)

I am so sorry for your loss @theotherfossilsister 💐

Here’s to hoping for an easy, healthy pregnancy and baby for you very soon!
