Possible pregnancy symptoms or just a period?!

[Jadie201595]

Hi me and my partner are TTC so i'll give you as much detail as I can.
My last period was on 22nd October and lasted maybe 5 or 6 days (i have regular periods) and a 31 day cycle) Since we are TTC I thought we should use some fertility/ovu apps to help us out a bit. I added in my last period info on one app and i got given my fertile days as 29th oct till 4th nov. Me and my partner DTD on 31st Oct and I think we left it a day then DTD on 2nd nov (i cant quite remember)
I decided to try some more apps for fertility and i tried Ovia and i got different dates putting in that my last period was 22nd oct and I have a 31 day cycle. this time i got 5th nov till 10th nov, me and my partner then DTD on the 10th and i have been told im not fertile now and that i will have to wait till my period is due to take a pregnancy test.

On the 11th nov i noticed some white discharge in my underwear, i have also been very tired, my ribs hurt, i have some wind and my boobs have been a little bit tingly. Normally im used to the tingling boobs as i usually get it a week before my period and i am next due on 23rd Nov. All sex is unprotected and he ejaculated inside. Could i possibly be pregnant or is it just period symptoms?

I would be surprised if you are pregnant. You usually ovulate 14 days before your period so it would be very lucky (although possible as sperm can live up to 5 days if the conditions are right) to have caught your egg based on your dates. After ovulation your body produces progesterone which causes pregnancy - type symptoms. A quick look through the threads of "pregnancy symptoms but negative tests" will show you how common this is. I go through it every single cycle. Plus, youre only 6 days after ovulation. It's highly unlikely a fertilised egg would have implanted yet to cause any symptoms. The only way you'll know is to test when you're due on.

Not to sound cynical, but falling PG two days after AF finished, every time, would be highly, highly unlikely.

OP I second the view that after six days you won't even have implanted so very unlikely to be PG symptoms. If you're seeing white discharge, by your dates it's probably more likely to be EWCM and a sign of ovulation.

Hi thank you for messages & advice! I have a opk and i am ovu now so may not have time to catch the egg etc might wait till next cycle x

My advice is that although the apps can be useful to track things don't rely on them completely for your fertile days.....I got an unexpected bfp during my so called fertile period 2 weeks before my period was due according to the app! I would look out for signs from your body or use ovulation tests :-) x
