1DPO

[Hkr23]

Anyone with me that wants to keep sane until 2 weeks time?

@MeganMama28 - Same. I swore I wouldn't let it rule my every waking thought and yet..... 😂

Well I’m a complete psycho. I tested for a pregnancy test today (merely because I’m so impatient. Of course it was a BFN (I’m only 6 DPO barely!) but I was just curious. My app says I can test in 9 days time and that’s taking in to consideration an early test based on my cycle.

Lol why do we do this to ourselves!

I'm determined to wait until beyond CD 31 because although my average cycle is 29 days, it's sometimes 2 or 3 days late and I dont want to get my hopes up that no AF is arriving!! So 10 more days of waiting minimum

After a CP last month I keep saying I'm not going to test early this month. I will though. I've already planned to do a test a week today which is opening myself up for heartbreak. I think it was harder to get. BFP then watch it gradually go negative over a week than to have not got the BFP.

@Whyhaveidonethis

Sorry to hear about your CP. That is what I'm afraid of now too! Only my first cycle but after reading the forums on here it seems more common that I expected.

Hold out as long as you can!

Hi can I join! I am 1 dpo today I think, haven't been using the ovulation tests this cycle so I'm just guessing but after 5 pregnancies (4 of which were miscarriages sadly) I kind of know my body so that's my best educated guess!

I love taking early tests and seeing the lines develop. Imaginary ones sometimes! So I'll be testing probably every day for the next 2 weeks 😂

@Whyhaveidonethis - Same situation for me. Seeing "pregnant" turn into "not pregnant" was heart breaking. I didn't know how much I wanted it until that happened.

I'm hoping not to test until 17th unless I have obvious signs of af. I'm due on the 18th but testing 18th/19th is more awkward.

Hi Ladies,

I'm 4dpo now (I think) and for the past 3 days I've been having twinges in my abdomen and the occasional stabbing pain beneath my ribs on my left side. I've never suffered from period pains/cramps so can't compare them to anything but it's unusual for me. I know it's far too early to be getting any symptoms but as this is my first time TTC I'm just a bit curious as to what's potentially happening (which is probably nothing but wishful thinking) lol.

How are you all feeling today?

I'm 4/5dpo and I feel normal (as normal as one can when obsessing over every detail). Looking back at my app for last month, I didn't notice anything until about 7dpo. My nipples are a touch sensitive but I'm chalking that up to rising progesterone levels as it is too early to be anything else I think.

Hey ladies

How are you all feeling. I’m really nervous as I’m feel very emotional and have ha cramps on my right side all day. This usually means Aunt Flo is on her way. Don’t wanna curse wit but I have to wait another week to confirm I’m not BFP anyway. So impatient!!!

@ChicaXS hopefully AF isn't coming for you! I'm 8dpo and feeling impatient, can't think about anything else. But also I feel I have NO symptoms and just feel really normal, so not feeling very hopeful (but at the same time I'll be really disappointed if BFN!)

Currently 5dpo and no symptoms apart from feeling exhausted the past few days.

@ChicaXS TTC is definitely an emotional roller-coaster isn't it, especially the 2WW. Fx for us all🤞!

I'm 3dpo and feel pretty normal apart from I've had really sore nipples (sorry if TMI) since 1dpo. Can't even bare OH to touch them at the moment! Apperently it's the rise in progesterone? Hoping they'll become less sensitive soon!

Anyone know any good tips that are meant to support implantation? Even if they're old wives tales I'm happy to try something new this month!

@Meganmama28 old wives tale on implantation is less movement! But it’s been really debunked and I would believe that! Just carry on as normal.

So this morning I had EWCM. I’m really annoyed as this may mean I missed my ovulation peak. So I DTD in case however this is what’s frustrating about PCOS. OPKs will say I’m ovulating but it’s all wrong. The one day on one day off clearly is a better method. Does anyone know if women can get EWCM way past ovulation ?

Now 5dpo and as well as the light cramping, I've been having light brown spotting for the past 2 days. I NEVER get spotting except for 1/2 before AF arrives but I'm not due for another 7 days 😳

Trying not to get too excited/nervous as I know it's early days and this is my first month TTC, but these symptoms are very uncommon for me so 🤞 it means something positive.

@xELENx I'm also 5dpo today. Feels like forever until I can test!!

Woke up feeling much more positive as Ava has detected a biphasic pattern and given me a tick on the day I thought I ovulated, so I'm much happier that I'm 6DPO now. I was worrying as my temp rise wasn't super obvious but overall it does seem to have risen slowly since then so fingers crossed!
I officially plan to test on Friday but I'm pretty sure I won't be able to wait until then 😂
No symptoms yet but it's too early anyway.
This wait is so hard!

@whyhaveidonethis I know, the wait is excruciating! Have u had any 'symptoms' so far? X

@xELENx not really. Last month with my CP the reason I tested was because I "felt wet" down there. Loads of watery CM. That was pretty much my main symtopm and that was at 10dpo.i also felt exhausted but that's pretty normal for me

@whyhaveidonethis wishing you better luck for this cycle! With this being my first cycle I'm not sure what to expect but learning every day thanks this MN and obsessive googling x

5 or 6dpo here. Little bit of mild cramping but that may be to do with the gym workout yesterday. I try to rationalise everything, just to be sure.

6dpo and i'm getting some mild cramping. I've also had a few fluttery heart palpitations when resting. I had these last time I was in the early stages of pregnancy and the Dr told me it was normal, so i'm hoping it's a good sign!

How is everyone else feeling today?

Trying not to let myself get my hopes up as just my first cycle but I have had a number
of symptoms the last few days. Trying to take my mind off it but it's hard! Now 8DPO and due AF in 6-8 days.

I've had mild cramping over the last 3 or 4 days - is that too long to be implantation? I dont normally get mild cramps until the day before AF and then usually the full force cramps start on CD1.

I'm the same @SLT90 I only ever cramp about 30 minutes before my period starts. I'm cramping today at 6dpo. Fingers crossed for us both

I'm 5dpo, feeling all over the place lol think my body is playing tricks with me as this whole process is the only thing I can think about at the moment. I had cramping yesterday for a short period of time
