Anyone 5 DPO and already going crazy?!

[Fifol]

Why is it so impossible to just relax and forget about it until AF does or doesn't (hopefully doesn't!!) show up....

If anyone else is around the same timing as me would be lovely to have some tww buddies x

Hi everyone,

I'm 5 DPO and TTC for the first time. Been on the pill for the last 10 years and came off in September - have been TTC since then but nothing so far.

This month something feels different and I don't know if it's in my mind or not? I'm SO bloated (I never get bloated) my boobs hurt (rarely ever happens maybe once or twice a year) I have really bad back pain, super thirsty and my ovaries feel sensitive! Also I can't stop eating (I'm normally super healthy and can control myself) Not sure what any of this means or if it's even anything but tried with pre-seed this month and hoping for some positive news! Hubby also said he has a good feeling about this month!

Crossing my fingers and sending lots of luck to everyone else on here!

Welcome @RG1805!

Hoping this is a good sign for you! I can't say I feel any different this month but hoping and praying all the same!!

I'm similar to you, on the pill a long time and came off last September. Hopefully it's both of our turns now

Welcome!! I'm trying really hard not to get my hopes up but it's really hard not to xx

Ladies, I'm 8/9 dpi today and got this. Cautiously optimistic as I've had 3 cps since May.

Symptoms I've had are: waking up to pee every night for past 3 nights. Lots of twinges. Lots of CM. On Saturday I suddenly felt really unwell, massive headache and snotty which sorted itself out by the following day. Feel a bit nauseated off and on.

@Whyhaveidonethis I can see the line! Normally first response are quite reliable!!

@Whyhaveidonethis I think I can see an incredibly faint line! Please keep us posted x

I can't see anything yet...but that could be because I can't zoom in on pics for some reason. Still super early so could really faint. Keeping everything crossed for you xx

I have pains today quite low down and almost going from lower abdomen around to underneath my bum. Also quite bloated today. I mean those could be anything really!

So frustrating isn't it. There is definitely a line there. I suppose I just need patience to see if it firms up. Bloody hate waiting!!

@whyhaveidonethis yeah I think I can see it so it's probably more obvious in person.

I'm probably a couple of days behind you dpo wise, also having a good few twinges but zero cm and I always pee loads so dont think theres anything different!

Will you test again in a few days?

Any update @whyhaveidonethis?

I'm still feeling pretty much normal. Approx 7/8dpo. Thinking I'll do a FRER on Sat as I have a night out. It may be too early though but I want to at least see if anything comes up 🙈 I also have the fear because I'll be gutted if it's a BFN this month even thought im trying to mentally prepare myself for the likelihood of that xx

Took a different type of cheapie tonight that I got from home bargains think it measures from 15mIU and i see a line 😆 hoping my clear blue early detection will confirm tomorrow 🤞🏻 don't think I would get a positive on a digital one just yet as I have one of those too x

@Sadie95 definitely a line there! So excited for you, please keep us posted xx

@GeLe I feel normal too, although my booba are still tender, can't decide if they always are or not!

I keep having little burps too, horrible as that sounds. Of course I'm reading into that as well!!

Congrats @Sadie95

Aww congrats @sadie! Are you 10dpo? I can see that line clearly 😁😁

@fifol the only thing i'd say was that I felt really tired yesterday and my eye balls were stinging lol! But...that can be quite a normal thing the week before AF so we will wait and see! Xx

@GeLe thank you! Yes I'm 10dpo today, my boobs were really sore and heavy today at work which is what made me test again x

@GeLe yes slightly darker BFP this evening!!

@Sadie95 you're inspiring me to test early despite all my talk of waiting!!

Have you been having any other 'symptoms' we should be reading too much into and driving ourselves crazy comparing?!

@whyhaveidonethis aw that's great news! Congrats 😁

@Whyhaveidonethis That's good news. I saw your earlier posts. Fingers crossed for progression.

I really really really want to be pregnant. I'm so worried I'm too old and I've missed my chance. Got everything crossed.

@bitheby I am keeping everything crossed for you ❤️ xx

@Whyhaveidonethis super news too!

@bitheby try not to worry too much, I'll keep you in my prayers x

@bitheby I'm 41, and this is cycle 21. maybe 22, I've lost count, keep the faith. Weirdly this morning I couldn't see a line at all, after the bfp last night but this evening it's positive and slightly darker. Still very faint though

Got everything crossed for you that this is your time.

I turned 43 a fortnight ago. I’m single and doing this with a donor.

Various things have happened in the last few years which means this is cycle 2. Cycle 1 was last March.

I haven’t even finished my second TWW yet but having a down moment.
