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

I've just read this whole thread from the beginning - I was on tenterhooks for you all, so happy to read some of you have BFPs!

Betty, I'm really sorry to hear about your boyf. I can't offer suggestions but just sending positive thoughts your way. Big hugs.

Soozc, that must have taken you a while, didn't realise how many posts were on here now!!
Betty how are things with you and your OH? Hope you're ok hun xx

Also Chapman I don't know if you're still watching this thread, if you are, how are you getting on? You must be approaching your next 2ww by now?xx

Wicker I am Hun not posting much as I sorta lost the thread haha!!

I'm on 6dpo I think or maybe 5! I don't know whether it's the pre natal vitamins but I've been constipated since wed only went to the toilet today first time since wed which isn't like me. So we shall see apart from that nothing to report how are u lovely? Xxx

Ah pleased you're still on here
Which pre natal vitamins are you taking? I'm taking pregnacare, but obviously the pregnancy ones, I'm sure they're what is making me so constipated! Do your have iron in them? As I've heard that is the culprit. Got my fingers crossed for you for Themis month
Yes doing ok, sickness has kicked in so feeling pretty lousy at times. Only managed cereal for dinner last night. But other than that doing well thanks xx

Wow sorry about all the typos and not really making sense, stupid phone!x

Sorry to hear wicker u are feeling sick. Try ginger ale, helped for me in the past. I had to sleep with biscuits next to me, so I could munch before I got up- that also helped.

Wicker I read it while having a coffee in Costa - beat the book I was trying to read!

Aww thank you Footprints! DH has been out and got me biscuits, plain crisps and something fizzy as I couldn't eat dinner again and they were the only things I fancied...This poor baby isn't getting a very nutritious start
Lovely of you to comment Soozc

Xx

Wicker Well, I'm on my own ttc journey and know how much little comments can mean. I have fx for Betty

Wicker I'm taking seven seas ore conception! I genuinely think they have given me bad constipation however it's odd st the time I'm in my 2ww and not before hand. But we shall see come a week today Hun! They do have iron in them yes only 14mg but I have been taking them for about 6 weeks haha!
Oh darlin bless you, how long do you think you'll be like this for? I know my mam had it for the full 9 months with me 😭 Xxx

Soozc how long have you been ttc? Fxed for you

Chapman it could be either, hopefully it is because you're pregnant you'll have to keep us posted!!
Ah hopefully not for as long as your mum had it must think myself lucky though, some women are very ill with sickness, I haven't actually been sick ...yet!

Xx

Wicker This is only cycle #3! But as I'm 34 and DP is 47, I'm feeling the pressure. But trying not to!

Betty, how are you? Been thinking about your situation. Really hope you are well and all is ok with your partner. Xx

Hi ladies, sorry I haven't posted for a while. Things aren't all that great we just seem to be more and more parted on the issue and haven't really spoken at all for a few days as he's seeing his parents for a bit. He's just so stressed because he's just not ready and the relationship just seems to get worse now. Terrified we are either going to break up or things just won't pick up x

Oh no anxious are you ok x

Oh no Betty, that's terrible. I'm so sorry this is happening. Really feel for you.

Really hope he gets use to the idea, or even his family tell him where he should be right now. Don't give up hope Betty, you have an amazing new life inside your tummy who needs you to stay positive and as calm as you can possibly be.

We are here to support you Betty. Xxx

Oh Betty, thinking of you.

Betty I'm so sorry...I really hope he comes round!! Do you know what has changed his mind? Thinking of you xx

Oh Betty Im so sorry to hear what you're going through. I can't imagine being in your position is easy but just know that we are here for you whatever happens. X

Thinking of you Betty, gentle hugs. Maybe when he sees your pregnancy progress he'll step up.

Well ladies, I saw OH for a few hours today to talk and unfortunately as much as it destroys me, to save our relationship, my little peanut will have to no longer exist, I couldn't deal with being a single mum or to live with a partner who hated me and our family everyday. It's the hardest decision of my life xx

Oh no, Betty, what a difficult decision to make. I can understand and would probably have done the same at your age, but that doesn't make it any easier for you. Lots and lots of hugs and strong thoughts for you xx

Betty are you sure? I couldn't even look at my Hubby if we planned a child and then he changed his mind - I would be so angry. What if he does it again in the future? Do you have much family support around that could help you? Hugs to you this is an awful situation for you to be in xxx

It has been very difficult to deal with and it has been very up and down between the two of us for the past two weeks or so but before all this I know he's been supportive and always there for me so I know we are strong enough. It just means that to be with him I can't have the baby I so wanted. But we are still young and there is still a lot of time left for proper family planning to allow him to be sure for months before we really try xx
