5 DPO+ - symptoms..?

[Daydreamer71]

Hi, thought I'd invite anyone who is 5DPO plus to see how you're getting on. Anyone getting any weird 'symptoms'? I'm overanalysing everything that my body is doing so just interested to hear others views really! I'm 7 DPO.

Over the past few days I've had on and off dull ache in lower belly, on Monday I had bad stomach cramps & diarrhea, on and off fatigue etc. And my boobs are a little tender today but it's not as bad as period boobs.

I know some say it's too early to tell etc. and I get that but for this thread I'm really just looking for anyone to share their current experiences and any 'symptoms'

Arg! Well took a test this morning and bfn like literally the starkest white you’ve ever seen. Feel a bit rubbish now which I know is stupid given how early it is, but just feel like you’d see SOMETHING on the test if it was bfp... ?
Hi Mrs M18- not sure if your symptoms mean anything but welcome to the world of crazy symptom spotting!!

Oh no don't lose hope though! Fingers crossed for next week!

Ah thanks Random 😊 did you test today? How about you Daydreamer? Fingers crossed for both of you!

You guys are probably aware of this but just had a look and found it quite helpful/hopeful!!

Thanks I've just been looking at that! Also found it very helpful. Not testing today, will try tomorrow morning I think!

Hey ladies. I’m 9dpo and have tender breasts and I am VERY emotional... (cried catching up on coronation street)! Sick of getting my hopes up 😩😩 Anyone any similar symptoms?

I've convinced myself that I am NOT pg - symptoms all but disappeared, aside from occasional stabby type pains in my left ovary. Sense of smell is also fairly strong.

Boobs aren't at all tender. Want to eat everything around me though!! Saying that, with DS2 I didn't realise I was pg until I was 8 weeks (we'd stopped trying and so I just forgot all about it as we'd only DTD once that month, at what I thought was the wrong time!).

I'm planning to hold out until next Friday before testing - will be 2 days before AF. We're also going skiing on Sat which is normally accompanied by lots of rose - so would like to know

Aw, well you’re not out till AF shows up as they say!
I think everyone’s so different with symptoms - as you say some people seem to have lots of early ones and others don’t even realise they’re pregnant!
Boobs not particularly tender, although it’s sort of hard to tell we still bf DS!! I do feel exhausted (which could be due to night feeds!) and irritated - but that’s probs just normal 😂 I’m going to test tomorrow again (can’t help myself and have a load of IC’s!)- and REALLY hoping for something to show up 🤞

“As” not “we”!

Can I join you ladies? I’m 10dpo today and tested at 7dpo and 9dpo. Far too early but still felt sooo down when I got bfn. Determined not to try now until Wednesday. Thought I had loads of symptoms at 5 dpo but not got anything now. Due AF on Sunday

Morning. Can I join? I’m 10dpo. Just had a BFN on an internet cheapie. I’m ttc baby number 2. Last time I didn’t get a bfp until 14dpo so I’m naively optimistic!

Also just got a BFN on IC will try again on Wednesday

I'm now 6dpo. Boobs not so tender but I felt sick on Friday lunchtime (before food, ended up just having toast and butter), sick yesterday after brunch (to the point I was retching) and am now feeling sick again. Yay!

Hey all, so I’m joining the club of another bfn 9dpo. Except, and please don’t think I’m too crazy, I was sure I saw a super super super faint line after about 5mins; I got really excited, went and dried my hair and when I looked again it had completely (and I mean completely- I took the test apart, held up to the light etc.) dissapeared! Wtaf?!?!

Hello - can I join? Going mad..

Me & DP have recently started TTC. According to the app, my predicted ovulation date was 14th March. We DTD on 16th & 17th. On 21st I started to get very mild cramping (more like an ache) and have got it on and off ever since, being quite bad last night. I also started spotting on 23rd (very light) and I am still spotting today, again still very light but more brown in colour. The cramping and spotting is very unusual for me as I never have this between cycles. I am not due on until 29th and I am usually like clockwork.

Am I looking into this too much?

Hey guys sorry just catching up on these - @Millie2008 sounds like you might have seen the evaporation lines :( I've seen other people on here talk about that and how they're such a pain! Don't give up hope though, as there's still time until af !! I did one yesterday morning and got a BFN, af due Saturday so trying to keep positive until then :( x

@Ty4happy hey! Don't want to get your hopes up but that does sound very positive! Could be implantation bleed, fingers crossed for you! I haven't had any of that yet but have been having dull ache feelings in my lower abdomen - have done a few tests recently, all be negative, but af isn't due until Saturday so who knows 😫

Thanks daydreamer - think you’re probs right about evap lines, arg! AF due on Saturday too, so we’re probs at a similar point; have my fingers crossed for us both that AF will not show on saturday 🤞

Ok well I’ve decided I’m def out this month did a test this morning and bfn (10dpo).
How’s everyone else this morning?

@Millie2008 you're most definitely not out hun! 10DPO is still relatively early. You're not out until AF comes. I tested every day with my daughter and got my BFP 12DPO x

Aw, thanks so much MrsM18, that does give me a little hope. I think I’m just thinking that because I took a really sensitive test (10miu/ml) that something should have shown at this point- even if it was just a squinter!

Can I join please 7 DPO (according to ap no OPK or anything) DP was away when I ovulated but we DTD before he went 3 days before so I have visions of sperm hanging around my uterus having a beer with their feet up waiting for the egg to show up .

I have been having vivid dreams, poor sleep and downstairs changes - creamy when it should be dry now. I also been off my food a little. No nausea, my boobs don't feel any different so wondering if the rest is all in my head.

@Millie2008 I feel a bit like you 😔 tested negative last night so convincing myself I'm not but trying to keep positive. Who knows! Apparently constipation is an early sign and I'm constipated today 😂 fingers crossed.

@daydreamer71 thank you! You never know, see if AF comes by Sat but iv got everything crossed for you!

I'm not convinced that I may be - I am now 12 days po, still spotting but a little heavier and more brown today. Also pretty much contsant dull ache in lower left side for a couple of days now, gets a little worse on a night time. Af not due until Friday. Never experienced this before so dont know what to think..

Fingers crossed for everyone!
I got another BFN this morning. Have also had v v light bleeding (more like CM with a tiny bit of blood in it) and tired.
