Hey, I'm 5 or 7 DPO, I'm unsure exactly when I ovulated as I've had sharp pain followed by aches/twinges on the lower left side from CD14 to CD21 (today). Planning to test on Thursday next week xx

Modip · 26/09/2020 22:19

3 dpo here so still very early! Guess it’s too early to symptom spot anyway but got everything crossed! Good luck everyone

Cluck15 · 26/09/2020 22:56

Me too Smile

Em2210 · 26/09/2020 23:20

6dpo here! Absolutely no symptoms and don’t have much hope for this month. But fingers crossed

GanderousGoose · 27/09/2020 06:33

No symptoms yet but that's because you don't get symptom at 5/6 DPO. I'm 40 so not holding out much hope of getting pregnant at all but lack of symptoms at 6dpo shouldn't worry you. Don't forget that after ovulation, progesterone begins to rise whether or not you've conceived so any symptoms you do feel at this stage are progesterone and you'd get them regardless. I had a chemical in August and hoped I'd conceive again last cycle as I had heard you were more fertile and also I had an MMC the cycle immediately before conceiving my DS (now nearly 14!). Tbh I think I am too old now plus overweight but want to try.

Em2210 · 27/09/2020 07:19

I wouldn’t expect to have any symptoms yet personally. With DC1 I didn’t get anything til around 6 weeks pregnant and my with two chemical pregnancies I’ve had nausea at around 10 dpo both times but that was the only thing that was difference to usual AF symptoms. I’m sorry to hear about your losses @GanderousGoose fingers crossed for you!

Cluck15 · 27/09/2020 11:31

No symptoms here either (6dpo today) however I think PP was right there wouldn't be any symptoms yet and if there are then it would be progesterone not pregnancy symptoms although they are very similar. Xx

xWaterfallx · 28/09/2020 19:44

Hey how's everyone feeling today? I'll be around 8 or 10 DPO tomorrow, it's getting very tempting to test but trying to hold out until Thursday when I'll be 10/12DPO!

xem87 · 28/09/2020 22:43

Hi xx
I still have sore boobs on / off and just feel a bit like period going to start with cramps! Not due until 6th so not sure why!

Got some bad acne which is new. No other symptoms tho! You xx

Em2210 · 29/09/2020 10:01

Morning all! I’m 9dpo today. Cannot resist the urge to poas lol. Took a cheapy test this morning, bfn of course but I knew that anyway 🤣 I’m just too impatient.

xWaterfallx · 29/09/2020 11:08

@xem87 sore boobs is a good sign, lots of people on here have said they had period like symptoms before getting their BFP. The only symptoms I have are cramps and twinges.

@Em2210 I did the same this morning! Tested with an IC and got BFN but I'm only 8-10DPO so hopefully not out yet! Will test on Thursday with a FRER.

Cluck15 · 29/09/2020 11:32

Same here with the acne/sore boobs and cramps but I'm only 8dpo so don't think this is anything other than progesterone for me. Does anyone here use there RHR also? Mine just keeps going down so I'm not feeling very hopeful this month.

Shell4860 · 29/09/2020 13:11

Hi all, can I join?

I'm about 8dpo today, trying to hold out until friday as we are going away so will want a drink if it's a BFN. I'm sure it will be as we only DTD once this month as hubby was on weird shifts, and I don't feel any different whatsoever!

Good luck to everyone else testing this week 🍀🤞🏻

xWaterfallx · 29/09/2020 19:29

@Cluck15 I haven't used RHR before, I'm unsure how that would work as lots of factors can affect your heart rate. I wouldn't worry about it going down, my resting heart rate ranges from 55-70 so it's too variable to use.

@Shell4860 Welcome 🙂 if you're 11DPO on Friday, you'll need to test with a FRER, an IC might not be sensitive enough.

Shell4860 · 29/09/2020 19:39

@xWaterfallx yes I will do :) I only have FRERs anyway lol

Cluck15 · 29/09/2020 21:11

@xWaterfallx that's what I tell myself every month but still check my RHR every month Confused my resting is currently at 48 which is my lowest but it does go down there quite often. I think it would be higher if I was in with a chance though at 8/9dpo.

Em2210 · 29/09/2020 21:25

I haven’t used RHR before. I don’t really understand how that would be that reliable?? But I don’t know the theory behind it

Em2210 · 29/09/2020 21:26

@Shell4860 it only takes one! You never know, you’re not out until AF arrives xx

xem87 · 30/09/2020 07:28

Has anyone ever had bleeding gums? So weird! Woke up this morning my mouth tasting a bit like blood... went to brush my teeth and gums bled! Never had this before.

When I went to the toilet yesterday CM had a little bit of pink stringy like discharge

  • put a photo but only slight looked more pink in real life 😂

Feel like I'm just imagining things!

How's everyone else xx

5DPO - Any buddies?
ladymary86 · 30/09/2020 07:31

@xem86 implantation bleeding?

xem87 · 30/09/2020 07:40

I'm not sure was only few streaks? X

ladymary86 · 30/09/2020 08:15

I think IB can be very mild spotting. And I think it also tends to be darker as well.

I wouldn't rule it out

xWaterfallx · 30/09/2020 08:46

Ooh bleeding gums are early sign of pregnancy as the rise in estrogen and progesterone cause an increase in blood flow. Also sounds like you might have implantation bleeding, this would be pink or brown but rarely red.

I had a very slight brown tinge to my CM this morning and I've had light cramps. So either af is on the way or it's implantation!
