Only 6DPO and I feel like I’m going crazy! Anyone else with me?

[Jordie24]

Hi everyone so I got my peak on 23rd January and I think I ovulated on 24th.. I’m now 6DPO ovulation. I tested this morning and obviously I couldn’t see anything, but I’m already planning how to tell my partner and looking at baby clothes.. what is wrong with me! Anybody else? And the wait is dragging too!x

Hi everyone, loving hearing about all these bfps very exciting! I'm either 9 or 10 dpo today. last 4/5 days whenever I eat anything feel so bloated afterwards and nauseous. Also had bleeding gums for couple days. Strangest thing just now was sitting watching tv and got what I can only describe as mini electric shocks/prickling on lhs low down hear hip bone. This lasted only for 30 secs or so. Touched my skin and felt sensitive.it's gone now and fine to touch. Never experienced a feeling like that! Very strange xx

So, think I'm pregnant!

Just caught up on the thread I was literally too excited 😅

My boobs are always tender a week before af and during Af and I've been getting cramps. But also some twinges, the only way I can describe is like when you get an eye twitch.

I should have ovulated 28th Jan, according to the app but I think I did on 30th. That would make more sense because we didn't bd too close to 28th.

The reason I did do a test is my CM is more than I remember just before AF so as soon as the amazon dropped off the tests I had to poas. Was convinced it would be negative.

I've not been sleeping well either, mind my puppy's been getting me up as well at like 4:30 because she's in season and needs a wee every 5 seconds haha.

What happens now? Do I just call the gp? How am I supposed to keep this secret?

@Stardust89 congratulations!!! So exciting!!!

It varies depending on your area, where I am I just googled ‘pregnant’ and my location and it came up with a self referral form for the hospital. I filled that in and they will call me within 2 week to book me in xxx

@Stardust89 yay congratulations!! How many weeks do you think you are?
I didn't know what to do either so I rang my GP and the lady on reception said you don't need the GP you need Midwife appt and she asked when I would be around 8 weeks and booked me in for 4 weeks time.. Which feels like a lifetime away!!!

Thanks both 🥰

@Cafeaulait27 ah ok I'll take a look thanks 😊

@1boo1 4 weeks technically because af was 15th Jan so due date should be 22nd October. Oh gosh yeah 4 weeks will be a long wait, the 2ww was looooong haha

@Stardust89 ahh were practically the same date then if I've worked mine our right.. I worked mine out from EMC on 17th Jan.. So I'll be 4 weeks tomorrow and I think due 24th October 🙏🏼 x

@Stardust89 congratulations!! so happy for you! Xx

@Tamz000 how long are your cycles?

Oh @Stardust89 I've just been reading through this thread and spotted your comment and our dates are exactly the same! Last AF 15th Jan and due date of 22nd oct - exciting! Congrats!

How exciting that we are all so close 🥰

@oannic 28/29 days xx

@Tamz000 you could try testing in a few days. I got a very faint line at 8dpo and a clear one at 12dpo. Good luck to you!

I've done another test this morning and even darker so that's made me smile this morning! Except not being able to sleep 😩 very tired!! How on earth am I so tired at 4 weeks today? Will I get more tired than this!? Lol

@oannic Yeah will wait a few days and test as period due Thursday or Fri. Noticed last night before bed my areolas looked much bigger than normal, maybe it's because my period is due this week and I've never really thought about their size! 😆 Definitely bigger though (maybe getting bigger breasts from all the spinach I'm eating!!!! X

@1boo1 I haven't tested again but Tuesday I am going to have blood test again to see if the hcg has increased. I also feel exhausted although last night I slept better (I am up since 6 am). I do feel a bit off.. Maybe is also the lockdown combined with the hormones that make me sad :(

@Tamz000 the breast tenderness is a good sign! xx Do you have lots of symptoms when you are pmsing?

I don't know if we are allowed to post links here.. but this is a cute video showing what happens in the 1st trimester, so @1boo1 the tiredness so early is normal.

@oannic No usually tender boobs day or 2 before and mild cramping also day before but that's it really. It was just the mini electric shock like pain I got yesterday that made me go OHH! Just something I've never experienced. Will find out soon one way or the other :) xx

@oannic Awww really enjoyed that video, thank you for sharing! Crazy how much happens in such a short time isn't it (but will feel like forever waiting for a scan or telling my mum!)

Right? I like it also.. and yes!.. so many things happening!

@Tamz000 sounds positive!

I've started using pregnancy + app it shows you what the baby could look like! Saw a YouTuber recommend it so thought I'd check it out.

Need to stealth call the gp tomorrow without the stepson hearing, I couldn't see a self referral form.

I've barely been sleeping, woke at 1am and just kept thinking and thinking I couldn't relax.

I'm now watching one born every minute. Might regret it in a few minutes haha x

I downloaded that app a few days ago and it's really good! One of my close friends has used it her whole pregnancy and is due any day now.. not that she knows about me yet 🤭

@Stardust89 🤞🤞😘

Morning girls, how are you all doing?

I am a bit scared now cause my main symptom, the breasts tenderness went away today. They still are bigger than usual but don't hurt. I read that it's normal for symptoms to come and go and I try to relax but still I worry a bit.

How are your symptoms going?

Morning,

Called the doctors they can't get me in until I'll be almost 10 weeks! This is going to be a long wait and on top of that My partner can't come I have to go alone 😥.

@oannic mine aren't as sore today either. I do keep getting a pain like below my ribs, above my belly button, not sure if that's normal, and now I'm worrying about ectopic, but thinking it's too high up for even that. It's probably the way I've lay or something. Think I might make sure I meditate otherwise I'm going to be obsessed, lockdown makes the waiting and symptom spotting worse.
