Anyone want to symptom spot with me?

Am 4dpo (I think) so ridiculous to think I am experiencing any symptoms but going to obsess anyway.

Does anyone want to symptom spot with me?

3dpo - right nipple was feeling itchy. Throbbing in my right ovary. A fleeting feeing in my uterus.
4dpo - slightly bloody nose this morning, both boobs feel tingly similar to when I was breastfeeding.

Clearly I am insane(!) but feel free to symptom spot with me.

bugoven just realised you're due the same day as me. When are you testing next?

Started having some AF pains again (due on Monday). Also some tingling pains higher up in my stomach. Breasts feeling a bit more sensitive today (when I push them!) and feeling very bloated. Baby, wind or AF, Who knows!

AF like cramps and what looked a little like ectoplasm earlier today. Had a BFN yesterday on a Tesco cheapy. Haven't completely lost hope but reckon I'm out for my Friday 13th Sept EDD. Would have liked to share that with all my supersticious friends and family [sadsmile]

Can I join you ladies?

Ttc for 14 months now, have PCOS and have been taking Metformin for 3 months. Already have a DD 2.1 who was conceived on a one night 'whoopsie'!

Having some symptoms (massive cramping around predicted ovulation date, large amounts of clear discharge, mood swings, cant stop crying, back pain etc) but seems to have eased up in the past couple of days. Stomach feels harder (but overweight so not sure) and spent yesterday crying at everything.

AF due on Friday, if its a normal cycle, so will wait to test then. But then again, don't want to as I can attribute symptoms to so many other things! I'm so terrified of getting a BFN that I'm convinced the symptoms are all in my head :(

Nope, never took anything. I feel pregnant with DS within a month of coming off the birth control pill (which I'd been on for 13 years) so I figured it would be just as easy this time. Not so.

I only got my IUD out in November though, so this is try number 3. I figure if I'm still trying after another 3 months I'll get the ovulation trackers.

Cracker... Same Here! Something must be severely wrong with me then because the nausea is still there! grrrrrr.... back to the drawing Board!, Have you ever thought of taking suppliments Agnus Castus/Soy Isoflavones?

Just wondering because i bought both and the fertility sticks to track when i actually ovulate... if at all! I came off the implant a few months back and i didn't think that it could have stopped me ov till now!

AF, the tease, showed up 3 days late. Ugh. And I was so sure I was preggo. My boobs were on fire. GRRRR.

I haven't had the gagging, it just feels like as soon as I put food in my mouth, I am starving and inhale my dinner/lunch!

I have noticed a couple of times I get a 'pulling' feeling in my stomach...god knows what that's about!

I would also like to know either way now too!

hahaha DoctorWhoFan! I told you it was TMI! Grin lucky you wasn't eating Jelly.. Wink


well i am on cycle day 27 now... and the last couple of months it has only been 25 days! so... technically I am 2 days late going by my previous monthly cycle....

Elektra83.... I have the same, feel so sick but hungry at the same time stomach churning for food but everytime i try to eat i gag! been forcing stuff down me.

oh god i just want to know either way now!

My boobs feel so big right now, it's a bit disconcerting, I think what's worse is my OH agreed with me!

Knowing me, this is probably PMT rather than pg! I never get the boob thing until at least a few days before AF is due, this is pretty much over a week before I am due.

Not to mention the queasy/nausea feeling I have had pretty much all this week and when I do eat, I am basically starving!

Mmmmm...how sexy sammisamsam! LOL! That sounds promising actually, although slightly gross, specially as I had porridge for brekkie Grin

Feeling a bit less miserable today, which is nice.

Serious, it doesn't sound as though you are completely out of the running either. Fingers crossed for you ladies.

I just went to the loo and when i wiped there was (TMI COMING UP)... this beige looking snot ball! soorrry!!!! lol but it wasn't the browny colour i am used to... I had a bit of ahem... rough last night so i am wondering maybe its that?

sammisamsam don't give up until AF rears her ugly head!

DoctorWhoFan sorry to hear that AF arrived. This conception business is enough to drive anyone to drink...

My body feels like it's going into meltdown. So apart from the previously listed symptoms, last night whilst trying to sleep, I felt incredibly nauseous to the point where I had to assume the foetal position, bum in the air and head in the pillow (this is the position I usually revert to when drunk and experiencing spins!), I've been having terrible head rushes and now, as I type this, I have a 'visual disturbance' which can mean only one thing, a migraine is on its way.

If I don't get a BFP next week, I think I need to see a Dr!

well i tested this morning and it was BFN... still have 2 days to go till AF is due.

DrWhoFan..... ahhh I am sorry... I might be in the same boat as you too! My symptoms have me convinced that I am pregnant.

Woke up this morning gagging again, slight cramps, back ache but not like the usual AF back pain, its a bit higher, between kidney.

I think last time i tested it was a week after as it was unexpected and I only noticed that AF was AWOL. I wondered why I was feeling so rough at the time but thought i was just coming down with something!

Aaaargh. Ridiculously depressed. After having all the symptoms under the sun, my effing period turned up bang on time, and to add insult to injury, the cramps are excruciating. If I was a drinker, I'd be necking a bottle of something alcoholic about now Sad

Symptom update! Had a dull headache on the side of my head since last night (feels like the kind you get with a hangover...for the record, I'm not hungover!), had a major hot flush in bed the other night, made me actually break out in a sweat and I have just had the biggest craving for a Crunchie just out of the blue.

Am I scraping the barrel yet? Someone please give me a virtual slap if I am!

Let us know how you get on sammisamsam !

It's very hard not to get ahead of yourself though isn't it? Will try and resist testing until next week now (which will be around 6 days before AF).

sammisamsam · 10/01/2013 10:30

Seriousstuff... It sounds promising! I am nearly certain now i am going to get a BFP. Your symptoms are very similar to mine. People keep saying that its too early for symptoms (on other sites) but last time i was pregnant i noticed nearly straight away. Tiredness but mainly the nausea as well as a breakout! (maybe due to more oily skin?) this morning when i left for work, I made it as far as locking my front door before i had to run in and shove my head down the toilet!

I think i might get a test today and see!

SeriousStuff · 10/01/2013 02:03

Might be a complete overreaction (and may just be new ov symptoms I haven't experienced before) as I'm only on CD14 but today have had very oily skin, awful metallic taste in my mouth when I eat something, bloating and the smell of my DH's face cream has made me feel nauseous every time he's come near me. We DTD earlier and had to breathe out near his face!

Obviously looking for these things at the moment so likely to come to nothing but anyone else had similar symptoms?

Not quite so strong PMT symptoms this morning. Just bloating. I do remember feeling REALLY bloated before finding out I was preggers with DS...but then I get really bloated every month, so who knows. Still no ERTD, hoping to hold out to POAS till Friday.

Well still no sign here either... apart from the very mild cramping that i have been experiencing... still sickly, tender boobs. the usual suspects! Maybe I am jumping the gun. Hmm

cracker and sami I am CD28 and no obvious symptoms. Most exciting symptom spotting so far after what you said. Will continue to anti-symptomspot.
So tempted to POAS as my various Pregnancy aps tell me to but it's not going away if it's there so going to wait another week of I can Smile

Sammisamsam, I don't think I felt like I was getting AF the first time I was. But since my first pregnancy was a bit of a surprise I didn't really pay attention. Wish I did!
