6dpo, anyone else?

[dreamerkr]

Hey guys, so I’m 6dpo today (going with my app and positive OPK). I promised myself I wouldn’t symptom spot this month but I can’t help it! I’m noticing everything that’s happening and thinking, is it a symptom?! I’m going crazy, I know.
I had a miscarriage in June of last year, and we started trying in January. Last month was the same, I was going crazy thinking I might have pregnancy symptoms. So, last night I woke up with bad cramps and then diarrhoea (sorry, tmi!). The same thing happened last month at exactly the same point in my cycle, and idk what’s going on! It’s probably a stomach flu of some sort, but I haven’t ate anything weird. I’m also feeling a bit bloated, my stomach feels hard to the touch. Even right now I have a weird stomach pain.. similar to cramps I get before AF but today is only CD20 of my 28 day cycle.
Is anyone else 6dpo today?

Bump

Me also had MC last year in November, trying again since January and stupidly symptom spotting everything! Think I might manage to hold off testing until Friday...

I am 7 or 8 dpo. Don't think I have had any symptoms really apart from sore nips but that is quite normal for me. Really trying not to symptom spot! I have my first appt at fertility in 1 week.

@BuffaloCauliflower I randomly found an IC at the back of my wardrobe from a few months ago. I’m trying to hold off testing because I know it’s way too early and will be negative, but I know I’ll end up testing in the end! So annoying. I don’t have my hopes up this month though because my ‘symptoms’ are similar to last month’s, and we dtd a lot more last month. We tried the smep this month (kinda) but I don’t think it’s happened.

@Sarah5678 how long have you been trying? I have on and off slight cramping since ovulation tbf, but more since this morning. But I always have this so i won’t get my hopes up. I’m sure I ovulated from the left side because I always have ovulation cramps (and positive OPK the same day), but the cramps I have today are in the middle of my lower abdomen and a little on the right side too. So I have no idea what’s going on.

We have been trying over a year, i have PCOS so my periods are irregular which is a nightmare! Yeah I got positive opk and pains in my right lower abdo the same day, never had ovulation pain before but guessing that is what it was! No symptoms since so I think I am probably out! Fingers crossed for you!

@Sarah5678 aww. Don’t lose hope! I have my fingers crossed for you too, hope for the best! You never know! My cramping has somewhat subsided so I don’t even know..

I’m having light cramping again since this morning. Actually, on and off since ovulation tbf. I had the same thing last month too so I’m not gonna read into it too much. But it’s in the lower centre part of my stomach. It feels weird.

Hi guys

I'm exactly the same, should be 6dpo today unless I ovulated early but I had ovulation pains around day 13 which I've never had before we DTD that day but that was the only time this cycle so thought It would be a fine chance, but since yesterday I've had mild cramps got worse today (never cramped before after ovulation) and tonight I've been in bed since 18.30 absolutely shattered, could all just be me hopeful thinking and making things out of nothing like I do every month I've had a few other symptoms but again they could be anything mild nausea, headaches (but I'm trying to stop smoking so lack of nicotine maybe)

How long you guys been trying? This is my 4month, first baby and I'm 29 so hoping it happens sooner rather than later.

Hi!

I'm sorry to hear of you MC I also had a MC back in October and have been trying since then.

I'm also 6dpo today and symptom spotting like mad. I feel achey and like I'm coming down with something. Also been having cramps on and off since OV and also have very sore and sensitive nipples. I'm hyper aware of my nipples at the min it's crazy! They feel so strange and almost tingly. Trying not to get my hopes up and desperately trying to resist testing hahahah. I've also been weeing so so much today!

Hopefully this month is our month🤞

Hi Jurassiclover

Sorry to here about your MC

My boobs feel like normal a little tender if I push on them but nothing out of the ordinary so that's a good sign for you
I also feel like I'm coming down with something feels abit like a cold bit sniffly and sneezing a lot but this can also be a sign.
Also weeing a lot had to get out of bed last night twice before I could sleep and when OH got up for work this morning around 5 I needed it then which I don't normally..

Feel like I'm going crazy seeing people in the same situation makes me feel not as crazy and it's good that we're on the same days

When you thinking of testing? I have one early detection test but I'm trying to hold out a few more days.

Hoping we get our BFPs this month

@Samantha2202 fingers crossed for you! I’m so exhausted all the time, and earlier today I was feeling dizzy too. I put that off to not drinking enough water but idk. And well, I had a miscarriage in June of last year and I don’t even know how I got pregnant that time, we weren’t trying at all it just happened. We started trying in January, so it’s our third month I guess. I’m trying for my first baby too, and I’m 23.

@Jurassiclover I’m 7dpo today and I’m trying so hard not to symptom spot, but I can’t help it. It’s so annoying. I feel like it’s not the month for me this month.. we dtd more last month even though we kinda tried smep this month. Only kinda though. I had these weird cramps last month too so I got my hopes up last month for nothing! I’m not gonna be hopeful this time..

@dreamerkr
Thank you...
Sorry to hear about the MC 😔😔

I'm glad we're all around the same time be good to compare symptoms and hopefully all get a BFP together 🤞🏽🤞🏽

@Samantha2202 same with me, my boobs aren’t really sore but they feel slightly tender only when I press on them. Last time, when I got pregnant and miscarried I had no idea what was happening to me but I couldn’t even slightly touch my boobs, they were that painful! I think I’m going crazy here symptom spotting. Last month, my cousin got pregnant and she had literally no symptoms. Nothing. Her period was just late that’s it. So I guess it’s different for everyone.
My stomach feels weird though! I’ve been having on and off cramping all day. And I had diarrhoea yesterday (tmi, sorry) so it’s probably a stomach bug like last month.

@Samantha2202 hopefully! It’s so stressful though, all of this! Oh, I’m bloated too. I’ve been wearing a waist trainer for the last two months or so on and off, and I took it off today telling myself I won’t put it back on until my period starts. Lol I’m going mad 🤣

@dreamerkr haha don't worry we're all going mad your not alone 😛

Yeah I guess everyone's different and we won't know for sure for a few more days doesn't stop me stressing and constant googling symptoms,

I'm like mmm that cucumber tasted funny let me google see if anyone else had funny tasting cucumber and it ended up been a symptom...

Sounds ridiculous saying it out loud but this is where I'm at 😂🤷🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

When you thinking of testing?

@Samantha2202 haha! Cucumber tasted funny?! That’s a new one 🤣
Ermmm I’m not sure! I have an IC from last month and I don’t want to test until this weekend because it’s way too early! What about you?

@dreamerkr True story I actually did that last month 😂😂
But literally clinging on to any sign 🤷🏽‍♀️

And I've got one left from last month too I'm same I don't want to use it going to try and wait maybe till Sunday it's an early detection too so bit nervous to do it..

@Samantha2202 early detection tests can test up to 6 days before, but yes i’d say to wait until at least Sunday too! That’s my plan too... as of yet lol. I’m gonna keep myself busy so I don’t look for symptoms 😝

Hey gals, how are you all? I’ve managed to get to 11dpo without peeing on a stick, I think I deserve a medal! I tortured myself last month with tests and symptom spotting so I’m trying to learn from my mistakes. I have FRER at home and hoping to wait till Sunday. @Jurassiclover I also had a MMC at 12 weeks in October and isn’t the pressure to get pregnant again quickly just awful?

@dreamerkr

Right so will go with Sunday and test together!! Is that a deal haha..

I've woke up abit sickly and still have mild cramps hopefully positive 🤞🏽🤞🏽

@Brodijen heyyy... omg you have done well.. we will all do it together and hopefully all have our BFPs.
Sorry to hear about your MC too. Sending lots of love.

@Samantha2202 it really does help you feel less crazy doesn't it!

I'm probably gonna cave in and test tomorrow even though I'll only be 8dpo and I know it'll probably be negative but I'm just itching to test hahah! When you thinking of testing?

@dreamerkr we also DTD a lot less this month which seems insane given I have more symptoms this month! Trying so hard not to get excited over any symptoms.

@Brodijen it's horrible yeah! I feel like I'm getting even more stressed cause I know my body can get pregnant so now I'm like 'well come on, why isn't it happening?!'. This month I stepped away from apps etc and just DTD when I wanted rather than when I was OV just cause I needed a month to de-stress and recharge a little. So sorry to hear of your MC

@Jurassiclover

Did you do the test?

And maybe Sunday..

Symptoms seem to have gone now tho :(

Feel abit sickly and hot but maybe because I'm sat at work with heater blasting my feet and currently eating anything in site 😂🤷🏽‍♀️

@Jurassiclover @Samantha2202 Thanks gals, going to try to hold off till Saturday to test, I’ll be 14 dpo then. Baby dust to you all and I’ll let you know how I get on!
