5 DPO and symptom spotting like crazy :)

Im currently 5 dpo and my boobs have been killing me the last few days! I dont normally get sore breasts until a week before af, so this is really early for me.
I know its far too early to be symptom spotting, but I cant help it Grin
Anyone else 5dpo and having any symptoms?

This is only my 2nd cycle ttc number 2 I conceived 3rd cycle with my first but had an early miscarriage on the second month with him.

@30andTTC1 I had a google and I think the cm is a good sign 🤔.

Emlou26 · 08/06/2020 22:15

Before him*

Emlou26 · 08/06/2020 22:17

@TheOrangeMonster fingers crossed !! I plan to test sat/Sunday it's probably early but it's hard to resist! I don't know if I will get as lucky this time as I have just recently been diagnosed with endometriosis but keeping my fingers crossed 🤞🏻.

TheOrangeMonster · 08/06/2020 22:29

Argh @Emlou26 I’m sorry about the diagnosis and your loss first time around. I’m at 19 with #1 - apparently because I’m ovulating despite PCOS they’re just leaving us to it.

The one thing I am so confused about right now - why is only ONE of my nipples sore? 😂

Emlou26 · 08/06/2020 22:34

@TheOrangeMonster I also had a chemical last month trying not to worry 🙈.

Are you using opks? Just one sore nipple 🤣 I would take it as a good sign 😂. I have none apart from a few dull cramps.

Emlou26 · 08/06/2020 22:35

The month I conceived my son we used conceive plus lube for the first time... tried it again this month hoping it's lucky 😂.

TheOrangeMonster · 08/06/2020 22:39

@Emlou26 If it’s any comfort I think I read somewhere that having a chemical doesn’t increase your chances of future chemicals.
I can’t use OPKs - they don’t work for me at all. I use OvuSense. We’re right on time and everything. I’m sure it’ll happen soon - I don’t get very much EWCM and we’ve only just started using PreSeed, wondering if it could be that. Also although it’s been a long time we’ve been going for, the number of cycles is less because some of them are so damn long.
My grandmother used to say “It’ll be alright in the end, and if it’s not alright, it’s not the end.”
We started TTC relatively early so we also have time on our side (thank God, in this case!)

Emlou26 · 08/06/2020 22:45

@TheOrangeMonster oh I've never heard of OvuSense. I really hope this is your month. You are doing very well holding off testing !! I have no will power 🙈! My mum always says what's for you won't go by you!

I've had a really vivid (and slightly horrifying) dream that I was pregnant and ended up having quads 😮😮 identical girls and identical boys
The logistics were a nightmare as were the amount of nappies and then I woke up 😂😂😂

Emlou26 · 09/06/2020 06:53

@claireb707 I had a dream 2 nights ago that I took this massive pregnancy test and on the screen it said pregnant 😂. Hopefully these dreams mean something 🤞🏻😂. When are you due to test ?

claireb707 · 09/06/2020 07:02

16th so a week to go 😂😩

MrsLully · 09/06/2020 07:09

😂😂😂 I had a really bizarre dream last night. I don't remember all the details, but it involved my cat in nappies, THAT I remember 😂
@claireb707 I'll keep my fingers crossed for quads!!

claireb707 · 09/06/2020 07:13

Noooo 2 would be good, 4 would be a nightmare 😂 😂 all the nappies and 4 car seats and prams 😩😩😩

TheOrangeMonster · 09/06/2020 07:45

I’ve had a recurring dream the last four weeks about giving birth and when the hand me the baby it’s my cat! 😂

TheOrangeMonster · 09/06/2020 07:48

Also, my stomach is turning over this morning.

claireb707 · 09/06/2020 08:00

@TheOrangeMonster at least it was something familiar like a cat and not something really horrific 😂😂🐈

MrsLully · 09/06/2020 08:22

Fur babies for the win 😂😂

Emlou26 · 09/06/2020 08:26

@TheOrangeMonster your cat 😂😂 that's so funny. I also felt a bit sick when I woke up this morning it has settled now. Not sure if it's the vitamins I'm taking.

TheOrangeMonster · 09/06/2020 09:58

@Emlou26 this one. He’s bigger than your average baby!
Stomach now back to normal. Trying very hard not to read into things, although DH did comment this morning that he’d noticed my boobs looked bigger than usual!

5 DPO and symptom spotting like crazy :)

I had a strange dream last night that I worked for Lewis capaldi and I had to leave for LA super quickly without packing clothes or saying goodbye to anyone ... was very strange ... I work with horses so nothing like my real job 😂🙈

Emlou26 · 09/06/2020 10:05

@TheOrangeMonster oh so he is!! 😂 lying there loving life 🤣.

@Anastacia1 Lewis capaldi 😂 that is a strange one! are you 7dpo today?

30andTTC1 · 09/06/2020 10:05

Sounds like you ladies have had a crazy night!!

I was so tempted to test this morning, but managed to hold off. Im still about 8 days from af, so know its too soon!

@MrsLully did you retest this morning?

Gorgeous kitty!!!

One of mine acts like a baby sometimes, I can carry him round like a baby and he loves it.

This is him - he's a massive softy

SarahTTC2020 · 09/06/2020 10:08

Haha loving all the crazy dreams!!
Mine last night: my CEO was paying me £300k to carry a colleague's baby for them.. we were sat having a risk review and I said that dh and I were already TTC our own as well and they all went crazy at me

TheOrangeMonster · 09/06/2020 10:26
