Anyone else 7DPO and hating the waiting part?

[Blossom37]

I'm sooooo impatient 😭 also trying not to symptom spot geeez so hard!

Me too!!!! 7DPO today 🙈

@emilyylouise hi!!!

How are you getting on with trying not to test or symptom spot?

I'm not doing that great and I'm an idiot and tested this morning knowing for sure it will be negative 🙈🤣

@Blossom37
So far I have had
Vivid dreams
Weird taste in my mouth which has now stopped so not sure if i was imagining it 🤣
Headrush
I now have really bad cramps as if AF is coming.. hope not!
SO hungry 🤣

I tested yesterday and I knew it would be negative but I still done it anyway 🙈🤣
How about you?

@emilyylouise

Oh I've been cramping pretty much every day! So it's very weird but I hope it's not a bad sign...

I've also felt like I have UTI but without the pain just a little pulling at the end of pee and the urge to go often.

Also weird ass dreams!

I got dizzy one day (I got dizzy when was pregnant with my 1st) not getting my my hopes up but I don't got dizzy otherwise 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Blossom37

Yes I thought I was getting a uti on Friday! I'm prone to getting them very often so I know when it's coming... even got antibiotics but havnt taken them as it went away on its own 🤷🏼‍♀️ must be a positive sign!

Ohhh interesting! Fingers crossed then!

Yeah it was similar enough to get cranberry juice haha but not painful enough to get anything else yet.

Keeping fingers crossed for us both then :)

@Blossom37

Didn't realise uti symptoms was a symptom of early pregnancy! There are so many symptoms it's hard to keep track 🤣

Hey, can I join? Am 7dpo today too. This is cycle 5 so have all fingers and toes crossed 😁 When are you both planning testing, or do you wait til you're late?

Yep 7dpo today too! Loads of cramps from 2dpo! When is everyone planning on testing? I tested yesterday too and was so annoyed after because I was so adamant I would wait until the weekend this month! So hard!

@HerringGull

Going to try and wait out until at least Sunday when i will be 12DPO I tested yesterday at 6DPO and knew it would be negative 🤣 so going to try and wait as long as possible now as using all these tests are costing a small fortune 🤞🏻

@peach1234
My cramps only really started yesterday.. today I keep getting waves of feeling sick which is new as not had yet 🙈 I'm getting worried that it's AF arriving.. really hope not

@emilyylouise I think that it's more the frequent peeing but sometimes can be mistaken as UTI if you are used to them...

@HerringGull hi! Ermmm I have absolutely no will when it comes to testing despite always promising myself I will wait until at least 9DPO (when I had faint positive with my first) but I always fail miserably 🤣

It's been about a year since we decided to try for no 2 but about 6 months really trying. My cycle was a mess tough and only last couple of months my cycle resembled something similar to regular... I had no period for 18 months after my first one 🙈

@peach1234 oh I fail every time 🤣 I think I resigned myself to the fact I'm a testing addict 🤣🤣🤣

@Blossom37 I'm trying for number 2 too! How olds your first? It's crazy that I feel like I've completely forgotten all symptoms I had or what it was like at all the first time round! I know I didn't test until the day of my period as I was getting cramps but no af but that's all I remember!

@Blossom37 ahh yeah makes sense!
This is our 1st so any new symptoms I'm getting myself over excited thinking I may be 🤣 trying not to get my hopes up

I'll join! 6 dpo according to app but I think it's actually 7. I actually had a uti when I got pregnant with my daughter!
The last few days I've sore boobs (around nipples not sides), peeing fairly frequently (might be the tea) and very odd dreams. It's the first month we've dtd around fertile week. We're both in two minds about having another child especially as I'm a staunch supporter of only children, being one myself and loving it!! But I also love being a mum and my daughter's awesome so it's made me want another. Kinda leaving it to nature now!

@peach1234 mine is 2.5 and I remember a few things that were different by one that's stood out was being really dizzy.

Oh I was a total testing freak then too 🤣 only holded out 1 day for 8DPO I think and then tested every day 🤣

This time round I've been having cramps all week since ovulation (ovulation cramps were crazy! Actually quite painful) although no idea if it's good or actually bad...

So hard not to get your hopes up isn't it?

I was so lucky with the first one as it literally happened on our first month trying 🙈 now almost year after I'm really worried that at 37 I missed my chance for second one 😬

I had a dream I was pregnant last night!

Hi @AbiBrown!

That's nice and relaxed way of getting into ttc fun. I'm generally ok whether it will happen or not as our boy is awesome (although sometimes the only saving grace for the terrible two moments is the fact he is cute haha) but I think we both always thought we will have 2 as my husband is the only child and always wanted to have a sibling.

@emilyylouise Oh with the first one I was obsessed with symptom spotting so don't worry about it 🤣

Well that's only because we're not a hundred per cent! I bet you if it doesn't happen fairly quickly I'll become obsessed! That's it our 2.5 year old is so easy I feel like why rock the boat! I

@AbiBrown haha fair enough. I was obsessed from the word go we decided to try last time 🙈

I'm a bit unsure sometimes, especially on his bad day or when he gets absolutely nuts playing with his older cousin 🤣

@Blossom37 haha it's so hard to wait isn't it. You tell yourself it's so expensive to test and you know it doesn't help with the fretting, but then go and do it anyway!! This time around I've decided I'm waiting to test with my DH, so that limits me to weekends! So this month I have to decide whether to do it at 12dpo or 17dpo... hmmm

Sounds like you guys all have lots of symptoms! I haven't noticed any yet, but I guess it probably wouldn't have implanted yet anyway? Last pregnancy I got crazy mad dreams like @AbiBrown and @emilyylouise. I always get madder dreams in the TWW but these were like phenomenally mental! I also drooled lots in my sleep , like my body is saying 'oh hey, you're pregnant, so it will be really helpful to generate four litres of saliva every night...' WTF??!!

@HerringGull oh hahaha you are really good! I got bunch of cheep ones from Amazon though otherwise I wouldn't have tested so often. They were actually the first ones to pick it surprisingly last time 🤷🏼‍♀️

I'm using cheep ones until I see a faint line then will try first response hehe. Otherwise I'll just bankrupt 🤣

Good idea @Blossom37! I guess that's the way to go :)
I've only ever used digis - I really like seeing it written rather than squinting at it! But they are only any good if you wait until around the day you're due AF I think. Helps me resist if I don't have any early response tests in the house! I'd have to wait three days for them to arrive and then I could use the digi anyway
If no BFP this month maybe I'll get some cheapies though, hmmm...

I've been having lots of cramps though so getting a little worried now AF is due early as today feels like normal pre AF cramps. I had them since ovulation though but today they just got pretty bad :(
