TTC can't bare the TWW

[Lizzie1302]

Hi guys, I'm new here! I've been TTC with my partner now for 5 months and I've never had symptoms until this month, I am now 9dpo and for the past 3 days I've had Af cramps, slight nausea, and bubbling feeling in my belly. I'm due on the 26th but feels as if I'm going to come on any minute
Has anyone had these symptoms or are in a similar situation. I would love to chat so I don't feel so alone
Thanks xxxx

@Lizzie1302 Hi, the TWW is awful I know you've made it to 9dpo so thats good id be tempted to test soon unless you've got some good patients and can hold off. When you are first pregnant its impossible to tell the difference between pregnancy cramps and af cramps as they feel the same unfortunately. Having af pains definitely could be a good sign but your body definitely does play tricks in you sometimes. Gl I hope you get your bfp soon! X

@Lizzie1302 aww the TWW is so difficult isn't it!
I would be so tempted to take a test if I were you, with my DC I got a faint positive at 9DPO am and a clear positive in the evening hah got first response tests. Saying that, I wouldn't be disappointed if it was BFN at this stage... you're not out until AF arrives

Fingers crossed for you! ✨

That was supposed to say 9DPO evening using first response tests*!

Aww thankyou so much for replying @Olivebranch26 and @JenIsAGem
It's so exciting isn't it. I've been working nights for the past few days so not been able to use my fmu for the early detection tests. My plan is to hopefully test tomorrow morning and hope for the best. Like you say youre not out till the dreaded Af.
Symptom spotting is the worst Im so convinced it will be positive because every little ache and pain I'm relating it to implantation

@Lizzie1302 Good luck for the morning if you do manage to test. Only real symptom I can say for sure that was obvious twinges around the time if implantation, I felt those at 7dpo and tested positive at 8/9dpo, I do implant quite early though and had spent many years trying to symptom spot or I wouldn't have noticed them.

Thankyou so much. Fingers crossed and yes I had these feelings around 6 /7 dpo which made it all the more convincing for me but we will see
