Calling all symptom spotters

I’m currently 8dpo and I think I’m pregnant. Obviously too early to do a test yeah I did one any way and it was bfn so just symptom spotting til bfp or af turns up.

I had an early miscarriage at five weeks last month. I wasn’t going to do and opks this month but did one anyway positive opk on cd14 and cd16 negative on cd17.
But basically I’m having the same symptoms as last month. Some slight abdominal pain, some indigestion, really dry cracked lips, really emotional, really strange smell to my urine. All of which I had last month just before or around my bfp. Insomnia too, but I do work shifts so this could explain that. I just feel pregnant.
Anyone want to keep me company while we wait the week out?

mama congratulations 😊

redrose I cannot bring myself to buy the expensive tests... kind of feel it puts even more pressure on! So I’m going to be holding out for a while for a result, too, I think.

@Seeinglines i was so hopeful my temp went up a bit and my heart rate too :( i'm 10 dpo maybe it's just too early

hcbaggs · 16/02/2018 06:24

@Seeinglines this looks really promising! Fingers crossed everything continues along the right path 
@winterwarmers don't give up hope! It's still quite early, that's why I'm not testing yet. I know it's the slowest and worst week ever, but we can get through it Thanks

winterwarmers · 16/02/2018 06:50

Hi Ladies, I have been trying to conceive for 3 months now and I think I ovulated on 5/6 this month. I did a opk on these days and on 5th it was faint so didn't count that one, did again on 6th and the line was obviously there. I have been feeling very emotional at work where I cry with no reason and been nausea's. Did a test which is way to early and was negative which I knew would be the case. I woke up today with what feels like a hangover except I have not been drinking. I'm praying these are all good signs that I might be. My last period started on 25th Jan and only last 3 days. Anyone else get these signs? Hope you all get what you wish, fingers crossed.

NSD you sound just like me! I was sobbing the other night over a tv show that wasn’t even sad. And today everyone is pissing me off. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 for you

NSD I’ve been feeling hungover too. Also very grumpy!!

NSD1986 · 16/02/2018 15:24

pasbeaucoupdegendarme, yes I have been grumpy. Very short fused like Seeinglines said. When are you due AF? I just get so excited on diff symptoms then see AF. How often are people trying. I see do it every day or every other. I really can say I feel horrible this month. Not had headaches and nausea's like this before. I'm gagging easily also. Just can't get my head round getting symptoms when 9/10 DPO, seems too soon. Will do another test in morning as have a first response one to try. Doesn't help that I am impatient :(.

Redrosebelle · 16/02/2018 15:28

THis is just an Evap from yesterday’s test right??

winterwarmers · 16/02/2018 15:39

@Redrosebelle i think so :(

applesauce1 · 16/02/2018 18:00

Congratulations mama and seeinglines!
We're first month of TTC. Have between 34 and 39 day cycles since coming off the pill in September.
I'm 9dpo and have been poas like a crazy woman for the past 4 days. All bfn. Did a clear blue digital test yesterday and got a negative (on my birthday, thought it might be the best birthday present and ended up giving me a grumpy day!).

Been having womb twinges and feeling exhausted. Had been hoping these were symptoms, but now i think the twinges are probably normal and I just hadn't been noticing them before. And I'm always exhausted so probably nothing new there!

Going to keep poas (Amazon cheapies) until AF comes. I literally cannot stop myself, even though I know that it is ridiculously wishful thinking that we'll be successful in the first month of trying...
