Headaches

[Peachypusheen]

9 DPO 1st cycle TTC
Ive been having headaches for yhe last 4-5 days..tend to last all day , could this be a pregnancy symptom? I dont normall get them with pms.. anyone got any tipa to relieve them? Paracetamol takes the edge off a bit but trying not to take too much of that.

Well fingera crossed but looks promising. Hopefully ill have the same luck. At work tonight, hubby wont be home by the time i get back in the morning (uggh 2 hr commute) so ill be breaking my meck for a pee by the time he gets home haha

You poor soul haha! At least it'll be concentrated! Sending positive thoughts :)

Same here to you, gettimg a bit nervous as alot of my "symptoms" are easing up 😐 funny story i took up knitting to trynand distract myself....ended up starting a baby blanket! Lol

You need to finish it and soon enough you'll be able to use it :)

Yeah exactly, was meant to be for me but i dont think it will big enough. Either way it still helping me to focus instead of endless symptom spotting and research online haha

Managed to test thismorning... BFN 6 days til AF so see what happens

Still 6 days to go! Might still happen x

Hope so. Feeling a bit blue today i know its only the first cycle. Every woman in my family has convieved easily except my aunty who had severe PCOS and she had to have help. I always thought it would be easy.

So I'm still getting niggling headaches...been a week since they started. I had a handful of M&Ms the other day and felt really nauseous straight after but nothing since. No idea if the headaches mean anything. It's so hard not knowing what's going on with my own body. DH and I are going away on Sunday for the night for our first anniversary. If I return to a 28day cycle like on the pill then AF is due on Monday so may test next week. Its only first cycle and I don't really want to start spending on ovulation strips, etc. At least not at this stage. It's all sk confusing!!

I've been feeling on and off like that for a few days too. I've decided that it'll happen when it happens though. Stressing will only lower the chances. It's very confusing not knowing what's going on with my body and if I'm currently growing a human or not though!

Same here ive been so out of sorts , constantly in tears, headache for over a week, nausea for ages, tender boobs and nipples and now lower back ache thats definitely different to pms back ache. Its all screaming pregnancy but that BFN is making me think im imagining it all.

Tested again on sunday, another BFN. AF due tomorrow so will see what happens. How about you?

Keep us updated :) remember, people never used to test until they were 8 weeks plus! I don't think the early testing is accurate.

Still no sign of af for me. Now having a weird metal taste in my mouth, feeling sick etc. My stomach feels like I have food poisoning - really tight and sickly. Headaches have pretty much gone though. I had to leave a lesson I was teaching there as I thought I was about to be sick!

Took a test 3 days ago and definitely another line there. Took a frer and a super faint line (which hasn't happened before). I'm now really sceptical about tests though and don't trust them at all! It won't let me upload anymore images just now 🙄

Thats a fair point. AF due today and nothing happened at all. See what tomorrow brings...

I'd say go to the GP if thats the case, faint lines are good thing, what to expect when youre expecting says a faint like is still a line.the blood tests they do are waaay more sensitive they can pick up a much lower level of HCG than the midstream tests.

I dont think theres any baby dust for me this time though. Feeling better than i was but it must have been showing as work have taken me off shift for atleast 2 weeks! Must have been more depressed than i realised.

AF gone wierd. Slight amount of browny/pink blood thursday night... then nothing! Tested today but another BFN. So frustrating im really confused.

@Peachypusheen Feeling your frustration. Still no AF here and just a lot of faint lines 🙄

I dont know what to do. I dont know why it stopped after that one bleed on thursday night. It makes no sense . Atleast if af came i could start a fresh cycle

Any updates ladies? X
Im now 7 days late. Gp said test again in a week or so. So hoping it's a good sign. Xx

@Peachypusheen Still nothing here 🙄 Faintest line yesterday, waiting for more tests to be delivered today and I woke up with cramps this morning but no af. Think I might just be hungry! 😂🤦‍♀️

That's a positive sign from the gp!

I hope so, i keepnfeeling sick and i have a funny taste in my mouth that not even eucalyptus airwaves seem to shift. Cramps but doesn't feel like like period pain.. soo odd

@Peachypusheen That is^^ exactly how I am feeling just now too haha! 🤦‍♀️😂

I know its the worst! Its not meant to be this confusing.

Tested again still BFN. I was due AF this time last week. So frustrating i dont know whats wrong!

Same here! I took another and my faint line is still faint 😔

Got docs monday so hopefully she can shed some light. If youre still getting faint lines id do the same, a dr could do a blood test and tell you yes or no for sure
