DPO and imagining symptoms - or not?!!

Ladies - hope you are all well!

For those of you like me who are DPO and in the waiting zone do you ever feel like you are imagining symptoms?

I've had definite tiredness over the weekend - to the extent I could've gone to bed early and had a nap through the day!

Today is DPO7 and I'm feeling like I could have mild cramping pain towards the pelvic area but then I question if I'm imagining it!!!

Feel like I'm going mad!!

How are you all feeling?

Fingers crossed for both those that have done tests! I'm not very good at spotting lines. :)

I just have one FRER left so trying not to use it until I'm (hopefully!) late. Temps back up high after a one off so I'm counting that as positive, boobs tender and blue veins have appeared which I don't recall ever seeing before but who knows.

@LynzP85 I think I'll try to wait and see if AF arrives. Although I'll probably cave and do another. I just can't help myself.

@Bunny2006 it won't be long before Sunday arrives. 🤞 you get your BFP.

I'm crying at everything today but that could be A sign AF is coming.

@LynzP85 are you going to test with a FRER?

LynzP85 · 09/05/2020 12:18

I decided to get some FR tests today when I went to Boots.... I used one this morning and will use another one next weekend (when I would be late) to check the line is getting darker!

After my January miscarriage I know I'm going to be a tad paranoid this time round!!

Symptoms I've had so far (not all at once!) tiredness, mild cramping, odd taste in my mouth which started this morning, and I had a minor spell of nausea last night....

Really hoping this little bean sticks this time!

@LynzP85 That's a very dark line. I've got my fingers crossed for you 🤞I hope it goes well! Xx

I tested this morning knowing right well it would be negative because it's too early to test.. why do I do it to myself!!
Can't test until at least Wednesday, but I've been having on and off symptoms, but my gut tells me Im just not going to get that bfp this month.
Have to wait and see though
Xx

@LynzP85 Congratulations! Wishing you all the best x

@LynzP85 congratulations!! Fingers crossed for this sticky bean!! Xx

Bunny2006 · 10/05/2020 20:42

Just to update I have had a big dip in BBT this morning so I'm sure I'm out. :( It's coming up to 6 years TTC, apparently no health issues, can't go on like this.

Best of luck everyone else x

tootiredtoclean · 10/05/2020 21:45

@Bunny2006 I hope you get a BFP soon. Xx

LynzP85 · 13/05/2020 08:32

Hi ladies.... how is everyone doing?

Any more late AF's in the group?

OP posts:

Hi @LynzP85 AF due today but so far nothing (but it's still very early)
Did a test and it was a bfn.
I think I seem to have ovulated late in my cycle, didn't get a positive OPK until the 3rd, so technically I'm only 10dpo now. Still going to hold off and wait to test at the weekend if AF doesn't arrive.
Feeling crampy, sore boobs, irritable. Don't know what to think :( xx

Nat4392 · 13/05/2020 09:59

@LynzP85 9DPO and AF not due til weekend (although hoping LP to be longer) but my sore boobs feel like they’re subsiding and just generally feel a bit miserable today which means she’s probably on her way.
FaceTimed my pregnant best friend last night and I’m so jealous it’s unreal. Feeling very bitter and fed up today! 😫

sausageface · 14/05/2020 09:29

Really have tortured myself this month with symptom spotting. Even after AF on Saturday I'm still symptom spotting!! The only thing in my defence is it wasn't normal for me. Only 2 days and lighter than normal, but heavy enough to need to use sanitary products, followed by 1 or 2 days of pale pink on the tissue. Still getting daily twinges in my stomach, bloating to the point of looking heavily pregnant every day (not diet related!) and feeling just a bit off. Odd twinges in my boobs, feeling weak/low blood sugars at least once a day.
I even did a cheapy boots test I had in the cupboard and of course it was negative. I must just be getting sick but I really hate what I've done to myself this month with it!

I'm going to order my new lot of CB ovulation sticks today and hopefully that'll help me put this month to bed in my head!

Spinksy9 · 14/05/2020 11:32

@bunny2006 have you read up about implantation dip? Dont want to get your Hope's up but dont feel deflated just yet. When is your AF due?x

mia22221 · 19/05/2020 03:41

Hiya lovelies

Thought I'd follow this as honestly I feel the exact same I am currently 9DPO mild cramping tiredness and slight nausea
These 7 days till AF arrives is driving me mad but trying to stay patient... let's hope it's good luck for us all this month x
