early symptoms- when do I test!???

[AnxiousBetty]

Hi there, I ov either on the 28th of this month or a couple days later, I'm not sure if I am 9dpo or 14 dpo at this point but I'm guessing more towards 9dpo so ... With that my symptoms have been as following :
6 or 11dpo - slight nausea, headaches, peeing a lot, bloating, constipation, tiredness, little bit of white cm
7 or 12dpo - woke up feeling nauseous and that carried on with public transport but haven't been sick, woke up with lower leg cramps too. Feeling pregnant. Boobs are still swollen and still bloated. Cm has returned to clear and stretchy consistency Took a test but BFN
8 or 13dpo - symptoms easier today, feeling tired and breasts have been fluctuating a bit in size but no tenderness, had more cramping and sharp abdominal pains than normal but no bleeding. Felt a bit nauseous eating salted crisps but other than that not much nausea.
Still stuck with the clear stretchy cm
9 or 14dpo - had more cramping today in the morning and still feeling extremely thirsty and needing the loo a lot. Nipples have been slightly tender but only for a short while. I'm now basically all dried up down there, no sign of any cm.... Good or bad sign ????

I'm trying so hard to resist the testing urge but I bought 4 asda own early response tests yesterday and it's so tempting. Would tomorrow (10 dpo) be too early!? af is due Wednesday or Thursday as far as I know so that would be 12 or 13dpo

Welcome Samantha!

Yes we started out much like you, very relaxed over the whole thing...then realised that wasn't working. My advice would be grab some cheap one step ovulation tests and check out the SMEP first month trying that and it worked for us. Probably coincidence, but worth a shot
(If you're not already preg anyway )

Jod I had the implant before TTC and it took 2 weeks for AF to return after having it out. Must have ovulated as soon as it was out.

Betty still got my fxed for you!!

Xx

Hi all, I'm still lurking here and reading how you're all progressing. Glad to see some of you are still in with a chance. FX for your BFPs.

AF has finished for me now so back to baby making for us. Cycle 2 of trying. This month I am not doing any opks. I am doing one early pregnancy test which is on my birthday 16th April, AF due 19th. Be a nice present! Think I went a bit loopy the first month trying and not doing that again.

Hope everyone has had a nice Easter weekend xx

How has everyone been today?
My boobs are much less sore today and really feel like af is coming any minute now!
Still thirst and needing the loo a lot though and some white cm
Xx

I'm ok. I'm absolutely shattered though which isn't like me. Boobs are tingly. Woke at 4am as felt sick and back is achy.

Hi jod, glad you're okay, have you had af turn up yet? It could be side effects of having the coil removed!

No AF yet. It's a confusing wait as these symptoms really are reminiscent of My PG's. I would be very in tune with my body. Something is happening!

Did AF show up Betty?
Had loads of cramps yesterday, quite painful at times, hoping it is all normal!

Good luck Radders!

Xx

No Af yet wicker, I'm very confused as the cramps I'm having really are unmistakeable af cramps but they don't last very long
But my boobs have never been this sore or swollen before and nipples have never be sore either!
Think I'm going to test tomorrow morning now xx

It's sounding good Betty!!! Keep us posted, really hope you get your BFP xx

Hi ladies, and welcome Samantha. Good luck with trying. Yes all very easy to guess symptoms as I'm sure it's the anxiety of it all makes you feel every niggle and twinge.

RaddersMrs, hope it's your month!

Betty, I'm still waiting for AF too. Nothing happened- no cramps anymore. Got an awful virus so what I thought might be morning sickness was actually the virus. My son been sick too :( was getting my hopes up again. This must be the effect of coming off pill for me. My CM is clear again, almost like ovulation yesterday? So now I'm sooo confused. Cycle must be all over the place. Called my gp who was quite upfront by saying it takes from 3- 6 months after coming off pill for cycle to regulate. So she doubts I am pregnant. She said to not waste money on anymore tests, and if AF does not show in April then to book appt. Totally wiped any hopes I had.

Oh and Jod and sabzh, fingers crossed for you too X

Betty- forgot to mention I too had the AF cramps last couple of days and was almost certain AF was coming. So not fair is it.
Do u feel anxious? Do u think ours are delayed cos we are worrying and thinking too much?

Annoyed I have no AF now, as no idea what number is be on cycle?

Anxiety really could be keeping AF away. I'm not charting as only got the mirena out last week but judging by the amount of EWC I had this morning I really think I'm ovulating now! I also had a stitch like pain in my right side last night! We DTD night before last and will do it again tonight

That does sound promising Jod. Keep those legs in the air

Footprints- looks like we are in very very similar situations, I'm just waiting for af to turn up every time I go to the loo but I'm not feeling too anxious or worried so I don't think that could be what's keeping it. Just think as I haven't been off the pill long that it's messing my cycle and hormones about.
I keep getting the odd sore throat but only very mildly and it never turns into anything so don't know what that's about

Going to test tomorrow and if it's another bfn then I'm going to wait another week and it af doesn't turn up test again and maybe make doctors appointment

I'm still getting the odd cramps and small amount of white cm and I'm feeling quite lightheaded today and a bit queasy but not thinking anything of it. Xx

Oh and forgot to mention my stomach felt really strange and quite tender last night I couldn't lie on my front at all xx

Still checking in here wanting to know how people are doing!

Anxious - you're making yourself more so! In all honesty it took till 14 weeks for me to feel like there was something in there! I'm 19 now and certainly do but before that - nothing!

I'm keeping everything crossed for those of you left in. Good luck, you too may be joining the exhausted sore boobed and uncomfortable massive that is pregnancy lol

Fruity, I'm not anxious or worried at all. I'm actually quite relaxed. Just noticing changes in my body that's all

Betty I noticed changes in my body almost straight away. Obviously didn't feel the baby, but the very sore boobs, excessive CM and feeling slightly funny around food every so often was all different to me, I just knew. It is possible....Good luck testing, can't wait to hear the result xx

Wicked I've noticed a few changes mainly the sore boobs and more white cm and cramps lasting this long with no af but still expecting a bfn again, quite nervous xx

Oh it's the boobs! Mine were agony! That kicked in about six weeks.

Good you're not anxious - I just remember the symptom spotting and the tears every month, it took us over two years, and It's so horrible. I never noticed CM, or at least I never knew what to look for!

Keeping everything crossed. I just knew when I was, I don't know what it was but I just had a gut feeling. I hope you get the news you want.

Mine have never felt like this before so I'm hoping it's a good sign but also not reading into it. Testing in the morning so fxed

Also keep getting a very mild sore throat that turns into nothing... Probably nothing but it just keeps coming back like every other day

Im feeling positive for you Betty for tomorrow's test. Keep us posted xx

Hey ladies how are we all? Sorry I havent posted in a while, been mega busy with my cousins wedding. Havent been able to catch up with all the posts properly but still hoping we all get our BFP soon! Good luck testing tomorrow Betty x

As for me, no change really. No pregnancy symptoms, just mild cramping. I think its my body retuning itself now. Going to see the GP next week so will see what they say x

Is this what I think it is !?
