4 days DPO - anyone else in the TWW

[EmiGoiko]

This is my first cycle of trying to concieve our second child. I'm 4 days DPO and trying not to sympton spot because I know it's too early, but I'm feeling rubbish today and can't help but google every possible pregnancy symptom! Anyone else in the same boat?

Hey @EmiGoiko I’m exactly the same as you 4dpo but only used the Clue app and cm method, did you use anything else. I’m also on the first cycle but for #1. Me s as bad OH are both 29 and still in the hopeful phase but can see why it makes people crazy. I’m obsessed already! When’s af due for you?

Hey! I can definitely see why people get crazy. I was so lucky with my first and got pregnant 2nd cycle, but I was still obsessed then lol. My OH keeps telling me to relax. I'm using clue and ovia. I'm counting days past ovulation based on ovulation pains, but not sure how accurate that is! I tried tracking CM but I am not sure i got the hang of it and never saw EWCM. Have you found it helpful for you?

I think next time i might try ovulation sticks so I know I definitely ovulated and don't stress about missing it! AF due 22nd Jan. How about you?

Me hello I'm 7/8 dpo I think and itching to do a test tomorrow morning

This is my 3rd time ttc i have 2 boys.

I'm 7dpo in my 2nd cycle. I'm trying so hard not to symptom spot and be relaxed this month, as last month it caused so much disappointment. It's so hard!

Hey

I'm 5DPO and feeling literally no different at all to normal, trying (and failing) to be laidback about it all 😂

Hi @MushroomQueen - I know so tempting isn't it! Do you think you will?

@Newstart20 I know it's so hard. It's impossible not to get hopes up. Do you have any symptoms?

@mooloop - lol I hear at this stage it is unusual to have any symptoms! I'm pretty sure I'm imagining mine or that my symptoms are more due to my 2 year old not wanting to sleep anymore 🤣

Haha I know @EmiGoiko all logic just goes out the window doesn't it!

When do you all reckon you'll test? I know I shouldn't but I probably will at the weekend when I'll be 9/10DPO

Well Ovia says I can test in 9 days, so I think that's approx 13DPO. I had told myself I was going to wait until AF was due, but I don't think I'll be able to wait!

I've seen on here some people getting BFPs at 10 DPO so you never know!

I'm 10DPO today, tested this morning with FMU and it was neg.

I'm not giving up hope though, as it's still early and my period isn't due till this weekend so now I'm going to wait till friday or saturday to retest. I have been having mild cramps, lower back pain and nausea on and off since 8/9DPO so who knows, I know early pregnancy symptoms can often be the same as PMS but I don't tend to get any symptoms when I'm due on so this just seems so unusual for me.

It's a waiting game 🤞🤞

I have 2 tests currently I think I will in morning. I had spotting start 2 days ago and yesterday and nothing at all today, I'm also massively bloated and feeling odd. If negative I'll wait until Friday

@mooloop I'm 5DPO too! 😬 AF due 21st Jan!

Ooo we're very similar @penguin7, AF due on the 22nd for me!

@mooloop I'm trying to keep busy and not overthink if I have symptoms or not! So frustrating!😂

We are all very close then!

@allthingssparkly don't give up hope it is still early and all that sounds promising especially if it's different for you!

@mushroomqueen spotting sounds promising too. Let us know how the test goes, I'll keep fingers crossed for you 🤞

@penguin7 what are your symptoms?

Today I felt a bit sick this morning and have been bloated and tired all day, also unusual for me this far before AF. But 4 DPO is too early for these symptons to mean anything right? Am I clutching at straws?! 🤣

I had a few twinges a few days ago and since the weekend my body temperature has been very warm.

I've also been having twinges, fingers crossed it's a sign for both of us! The warm temp seems positive too🤞

11DPO and I'm feel so nauseous this morning, ugh! 🤢😳

Ugh poor you, although it could be a good sign! 😬

I feel rubbish again today, sicky like i have a mild hangover although I didn't drink last night. And now I have a cold! So it's probably just that as still think it's probably too early to mean anything.

@EmiGoiko fingers crossed it is, I'm just on edge now I'm getting close to the date I'm due on 😬

Oh no, take it easy hopefully the days wont drag too much until you can test 🤞

I know the feeling, the days are dragging. I am desperate to test lol

I've still got 9 days till I'm due on....ages!

@EmiGoiko I’m the same as you!! The days seem to take ages especially working from home!

Definitely! Not like anything interesting is going on these days to distract ourselves with! Boredom means I end up down mumsnet rabbit hole, obsessively looking at old threads 🤣

@EmiGoiko haha it’s like we’re living the same life!
