I’m only 5DPO, much too early. But nothing I eat is filling me up, I will eat and feel like I am starving again within 30 minutes. This is not good for my Keto diet 😭

I was like that. It’s just got worse I got my BFP 7/8dpo I’m now 11dpo. Fingers crossed for u

Leobaby · 19/07/2020 20:41

Oh wow so do you think you implanted early then? @2020wish congratulations as well! Flowers

Hi I’m currently 6dpo this is my first month tcc, but the last 2 days all I want to do is eat I’m so hungry all the time and when I eat I’m hungry again within the hour.

Also not sure if my nipples are a little darker or if I’m just seeing things

Just trying not to get my hopes up as it’s my first cycle .

Meme69 · 19/07/2020 22:07

Me!! I'm 4dpo and bloody starving!!!

Leobaby · 19/07/2020 22:21

Hi @Brendon7 it’s crazy isn’t it! The thing is I know the rise of progesterone increases your appetite but it’s never been this severe to wear I literally am starving even after eating a meal. My appetite is usually quite low I don’t eat much. I noticed last month my appetite increased after ov but nothing like this. Have you noticed it before in previous cycles? I have fingers crossed for you!

@Meme69 is it something that normally happens for you or is this the first time too? Hopefully it’s a good sign but we’re both so early yet!

Brendon7 · 19/07/2020 22:35

Well I don’t normally eat a lot through the day, I pretty much always skip lunch but the last 2 days I have needed lunch and a snack before tea and suppers too.

Which is not good when I’m trying to diet :/

I have also had cramps on and off that last few days

I did take a pregnancy test yesterday morning which was negative which has kinda made me feel like it’s just not my month even though I did test really early.

Leobaby · 19/07/2020 22:40

@Brendon7 I understand I’m right there with you on that, I’m trying to diet also, I’m obsessive when it comes to my weight, but right now it can’t be helped. Yes I’ve had very mild cramps on and off today, I don’t think it’s anything though.

And you’re deffo not out yet, you saying you tested yesterday and you’re only 6dpo so testing at 5dpo you will get a negative because it wouldn’t have implanted yet. Once it has implanted it takes 48 hours for the hcg to rise and will continue to double every 48/72 hours! So you won’t see a positive on a test until a few days after implantation. When is your af due? If you want to test again I’d say wait until a day or 2 before af! You’re 100% not out you just tested way too early my love!

@Brendon7 implantation occurs anywhere in-between 6dpo-12dpo. X

Brendon7 · 19/07/2020 23:01

Thank you, that has given me more hope I’m all new to this :)
My clue app says af is due Monday 27th but I feel this is a little early for my usual cycle of around 30 days which would put af to the 31st.

Leobaby · 19/07/2020 23:19

@Brendon7 that’s no problem, I’ve done my fair share of research, feel like I’ve done a degree on it lmao.
Ah okay basically the same as me! Im due 30th. So we shall find out together near the time lol. Do you know when you ov or do you guess?

OP posts:
Brendon7 · 19/07/2020 23:39

I used the clear blue advanced opk and didn’t really like them it was showing smiley faces for over a week I ran out of tests before my peak :/ but I think my peak was cycle day 12 ( 13th July ) as this was the day I had ewcm and I had really intense cramping.

If I don’t get a Bfp I’m thinking of just using the cheap ones next month from Amazon I’ve heard better things about them or just dtd every other day or both lol

Meme69 · 19/07/2020 23:57

@Leobaby I can't remember feeling like this before! 😂

Leobaby · 20/07/2020 00:53

@Brendon7 oh no! That’s annoying! My first time using them I had the same problem flashing for days but then after the first month it seemed to get use to me and actually only flash for a couple then peak lol.

Ah right yes, hopefully you were right then! Usually an indication. You ov early in your cycle then? But yes deffo just dtd every other day if you can then you’re deffo covered.

@Meme69 ooo well hopefully it’s a good sign then!im starving now but it’s too late to eat! 😩

Yes I must off implanted early. 12dpo now and so hungry and thirsty constantly. I was like this with my daughter 10 years ago! Midnight snacks, starving after a full meal. I’m actually gonna be a whale. But I don’t care lol I’ve had a few miscarriages so I’m over the moon and welcome any pregnancy symptom with open arms. When will u be testing

Leobaby · 20/07/2020 13:07

Oh bless you @2020wish that’s great! I hope everything goes well for you this time!! Hopefully that’s the case for me with implantation? I dtd the day before ov so I hopefully the egg got caught as soon as I ov’d! But my goodness I’m so hungry it’s unbelievable and thirsty! Well my af is due 30th.. if I can I’m gonna wait until I’m a day late.. although I do have some cheapies but I hate testing early to just get a bfn🙁we’ll see!

NatJayne87 · 20/07/2020 16:17

I just got my BFP today at 12dpo (hadnt tested before this though) but being hungrier than normal was something i notices this TWW which lead me to suspect. Fingers crossed for you x

Leobaby · 20/07/2020 16:31

Ooo how exciting @NatJayne87 !Congrats! Hopefully this is a positive sign for us all! X

Leobaby · 22/07/2020 01:35

@2020wish do you have a pic of your bfp at 7/8dpo? I’ve done a test from 7dpo urine and a line has appeared, faint but I can deffo see it with my eyes lol.

OP posts:
2020wish · 22/07/2020 07:38

@Leobaby that was mine

Anybody else STARVING during 2WW?
2020wish · 22/07/2020 07:57

That was a clear blue test that I got my BFP on. He is my clear blue from two days ago. (Stopped buying them and just continued to see progression on cheapies) My 4 frer where negative from 7-10dpo so I stopped buying them. This is my line progression on my cheapies also.

What does ur line look like

Leobaby · 22/07/2020 08:19

Oh wow okay! @2020wish I just done a frer and it’s a deffo bfn so I’m not sure what happened last night.. maybe a false positive. But I’ll put a pic here

OP posts:
2020wish · 22/07/2020 08:26

I’m not friends with frer. They are always negative for me. Go get a clear blue 6 days early test. Ur also very early too so don’t rule urself out. I deffo see a second line in that pic

Leobaby · 22/07/2020 08:30

@2020wish that’s what’s strange, there is deffo a line there but nothing this morning on the cheapie as well as frer. So strange. But af still isn’t due for a week so! Think I will get a clear blue!

OP posts:
2020wish · 22/07/2020 08:34

Sometimes ur hcg level can fluctuate so early on. Leave it a few more days and then try a clear blue early and another frer x
