Symptom spotters unite

[Buns05]

Just thought there's lots of people mentioning symptoms in the TWW. Thought a thread designed especially for it would be good fun!

I'm obviously not symptom spotting (don't know who I'm trying to kid and my Google search history will tell you otherwise)

So mine so far... heartburn, nausea on a night time, palpitations, general tummy ache like it feels AF is on her way... although in reality she could well be 🤣😀

Anyone else??

@1992EM sorry to hear AF has arrived, 🤞🏻next month is your month! I know, I really have become so impatient, I don't think I would be this impatient if it wasn't for these symptoms I've been having 😬

Thanks @1992EM. So sorry AF arrived, good to know that your regular cycle is back though and next month is a whole new opportunity. Sending positive thoughts for your next cycle 💕

@Shinea I'm so sorry for your loss - I had a MMC, too, at the end of March, and they're just devastating, aren't they? 20th week must have been so, so hard, too. Wishing you so much luck xx

I feel so sick today, the thought of my usual breakfast is knocking me sick and all I want is a bacon sandwich, I may have to go out and buy the ingredients 😬 Still telling myself it's probably just a bug...

@1992EM even my AF arrived this morning!! I wonder how those symptoms pranked us or was it all hallucinations. This time my cycle was 3 days earlier making it to 25 days.

@SkyBlue20 definitely it is the worst thing, wish you get your positive, you are in my prayers.

@msunflower bfn for me this morning at 8/9 dpo. Now have zero symptoms so shouldn't be surprised . Think my boobs are starting to hurt slightly at the sides but that could be cos I'm constantly checking them. Will try and hold off until Thursday to test again, if you do the same we can update each other

@Shinea so sorry to hear that. If my first pregnancy had continued I would now be 13-14 weeks and we would have told family.

@greenjavapiano stay strong!! You will soon tell your family, as we all know miscarriages are very common and it happens for a reason while many of them aren't known. We will have our time and bundle of joy will return to us. Until then stay strong, wish you get your positive soon

@greenjavapiano I need some willpower and restraint to stop me POAS - send help 🤣 let's keep in touch and both test though, it's so nice we're at the same stage! Last night lying in bed I felt like I was going to have to run to the bathroom and throw up. If I'm not pregnant I think I must be ill 🤷‍♀️

Hi everyone. Nice to see a thread where we are at similar stages.
I am 6 or 7 DPO I think. AF due around 6th July. Also had a MMC in November. No symptoms here, had sore boobs last month but BFN even though I was convinced pregnant. Hoping no symptoms good sign for me, can't remember how I felt when pregnant last year. X

@Shinea Sorry to hear AF has arrived . I have noted down all the symptoms I had so next month I don't wrap myself up in them.

@msunflower Thank you, I have ordered ovulation tests and downloaded the flo app to try work out when I ovulate better. 3rd cycle will hopefully be a lucky one. I hope you get you BFP. The one thing I have taken from this month is to not test super early as the blank screen is worse than AF arriving. I would wait until around 11dpo.
@skyblue20 Thank you , I have cleaned my house . Ordered lots of healthy foods that are supposed to help and ovulation tests. Fingers crossed it helps 💕 I hope you feel better and that it leads to a BFP . How many dpo are you? x

@1992EM Sounds like a productive day ☺️ I have no idea how many DPO I am as I don't track and haven't got a clue on my cycles (I think they're usually 32-35 days but that's based on not much) and this is the first after a MMC so it can be all messed up anyway. If these are pregnancy symptoms then I will have ovulated early. Either way, I'm going to try to hold off testing until around 10/11 July as I think that's when AF would usually be due but let's see if I give in a little earlier - I'm not usually an early tester so will hopefully be able to hold out!
Had my bacon sandwich and feeling a bit better now, still got a horrible taste in my mouth and am super thirsty, but that could be the saltiness of the bacon! If I'm honest, I don't feel pregnant but do have some potential symptoms so we'll see... 🤞🏼 I'd love to be PG this round as I could tell my mum on her b'day at the end of the month (though tbh she'll probably be more worried than excited after the MMC last time!)

@skyblue20 Glad you got your bacon sandwich. It all sounds promising . Sorry to hear about you mmc. Fingers crossed this is your cycle . Will be routing for you 💕

@msunflower Going out for a walk is the best distraction for me. I'm trying to do this after work and after dinner and leave my mobile at home. Think about what else you can spend the money on - instead of the test you will buy something for your future child

@ALew15 I'm sorry to hear that. No symptoms here either, hoping to get some soon

@SkyBlue20 I stopped testing altogether around 1 year ago. Got a positive in May 10 days after missed period and now it's taken over my life again

Now I'm getting closer to my period, most of my symptoms have just sort of disappeared. I don't know if this is a good or bad sign? Will probably only know if I have a missed period and can test accurately. I'm still holding on to the hope that having implantation bleeding is a good sign 🤞🏻part of me is worrying that I had implantation then nothing came of it 😭

@msunflower Fingers crossed you get your BFP. Sorry can't help with the symptoms disappearing. I am not sure what that means.

@msunflower fingers crossed for you. When is af due? Are you testing again or just going to wait and see?

@LT103 @1992EM my Clue app is telling me I'm due in 8 days, but that's based on an average. My last couple of periods were earlier than that so it could be as soon as 4 days. I usually get really sore boobs before AF but I've got absolutely no pain which is unusual. I'm still getting some cramps but not sure if that's a symptom or AF coming, but I don't usually get cramps until AF is here. I've also been sleeping really deeply the last few nights which I never do so who knows! Tested with a cheapy this morning and a BFN. Last night I did a clear blue and it seemed like a vvvvvvvvv.faint blue, but I don't trust my judgement that it was a BFP at this stage! Will text again tomorrow 🤞🏻

Think I am definitely out this month.. we dtd every day in the window, think I ovulated earlier than my app would suggest though. App says AF due on 11th. CM has turned to nothing and I would have thought it would have increased had I have caught.
I have sore tender boobs but get that when I am due a period anyway. I hate that every month my body tricks me into thinking this could be it.
Not out until AF arrives but mentally preparing to be out this month.

Sorry reading that back I realise how negative it sounds.

@Sunfl0wer20 you're not out until AF arrives! Are you going to test or wait until AF is due? 🤞🏻🤞🏻 for you!

@Sunfl0wer20 I'm similar, usually get sore boobs in lead up to Af. Had them last month, but now I have nothing. Few belly twinges. Due af on Monday according to app. Had a bit of creamy discharge in Knicks today, that mean anything?

Today I’ve got a stuffy nose and since yesterday what could be af arriving or implantation, most likely the first. I’m thinking if I don’t have stronger symptoms by tomorrow then I’m definitely out.

Still crossing my fingers for everyone

@greenjavapiano when is AF due?

@msunflower my cycle is average 29 days but has twice been 8-10 weeks in the past year! 10 week cycle was staying with my partner’s parents when we didn’t DTD at all. Today is day 25, will test tomorrow and post the outcome

🤞🏻🤞🏻 for us both then, @greenjavapiano!!!

You have to love the 2ww 🤦🏻‍♀️
So far I had lots of cramping 2 and 3 dpo with lots of spotting 3 dpo. This has settled but still producing lots of creamy cm and today it has turned really stretchy, not quite ewcm as not clear but similar. I’m now 5 dpo going by opk and temp. Who knows. Poor google today!!! Haha

@LT103 That all sounds promising. Good luck 💕

After driving myself crazy POAS, I've decided to force myself not to test anymore until the day after AF is due. Clearblue calculator says I can test tomorrow for early detection but I'm making myself miserable/getting obsessed over testing. I'm putting it out there to hold myself accountable! 🙌🏻
