7/8 dpo, thoughts and advice please

Thoughts please?

I have a 26 day cycle everytime, I am currently 7/8dpo. I noticed EWCM those 2 days I believe was around ovulation, I also track using an app as well, my app said ovulation would happen at the time I got the discharge. Anyway I’ve had cramping the past few days, yesterday and today I get a sharp pain in my right groin, my thigh aches like a dull ache and my belly feels bubbly along with dull cramps, that’s the only way I can describe it, I’m getting waves of nausea and I have very wet and sometimes EWCM again, which has been the past couple of days. usually I only have thick lotion type discharge leading up to AF after ovulation. Could this all be leading to me getting a BFP? I’m due AF on the 15/02/2021. Any thoughts is much appreciated!

[quote Gablou]@Sussexgirlie5 thank you hun, I don’t know which test to buy, if I was to get one today.

@Rmd123 I did a test Saturday and that was a bfn with a clear blue but read bad things about them so o didn’t trust it 100%.

Hope we all get good news this cycle! Xx[/quote]
Recommend the clear blue early detection tests! Not the one with weeks indicator and a frer

Gablou · 15/02/2021 08:40

@halfwaythrough2 oh see I had the weeks indicator one. I’ll have to look in Superdrug and see what’s in there. Thank you for your recommendation tho!

Sussexgirlie5 · 15/02/2021 10:23

I think the weeks one is for after a missed period.

Gablou · 15/02/2021 11:01

@Sussexgirlie5 ah! I see, well no sign of period, no cramps or anything today so far and my cervical mucus is lotion type but not loads and I checked after my fmu too. So we shall see

Sussexgirlie5 · 15/02/2021 12:09

I’m rooting for u!
Sounds like you have all the symptoms lol
I’m kinda dry I think not much Cm.. I have had an odd cramp here and there. I must be honest every time I go to the toilet I check the toilet paper.. I will deffo be testing tomorrow if af doesn’t show today..

Gablou · 15/02/2021 13:47

@Sussexgirlie5 I’m rooting for you too! Thank you, I’m hoping these are signs. There’s not a lot of discharge when I check and I check with my fingers, tmi sorry, and there’s less than there has been this cycle. I check every other time I go for a pee. Been to town and forgot the test tho 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

Sussexgirlie5 · 15/02/2021 13:54

Oh! So will u still be able to trst tomorrow?

Gablou · 15/02/2021 14:20

@Sussexgirlie5 no I won’t be able to tomorrow. I’m going to try and wait a few more days to see if I get my period and then we will go from there. I think Friday is the latest I’ll wait now

So I’ve just been to the toilet and checked my cervical mucus, it’s still thick and lotiony, however, it had a bit of stretch with it too. Still no sign of my period yet, hoping this is all good. Google doesn’t have an answer for me about the discharge either. Hoping I can wait a little bit longer and I have a BFP soon! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Another update ladies, I’m so sorry for these updates 😂 basically just wiped and there was yellow tinged snot like mucus on the paper, I’ve not had this before at all in previous cycles that I can remember and not once this cycle, checked with fingers and yellow on my fingers too but it’s still mainly white, thick lotion with a bit of stretchiness? Any ideas? I’m hoping the yellow tinge is a bean in there and not a sign of my period as google said it could be a sign your period is on its way! Why do I google things 😫

@Gablou hey OP, been reading your thread and if I were you I would go out and get a first response if you can. If AF is due today then you will most likely get a BPF if you are in fact pregnant. I've always had a positive before I was due with FR xx

Gablou · 15/02/2021 16:29

@lockdownbabyx hi thank you, we’re going to be food shopping Wednesday so I shall pick a test up in Tesco while I’m there if I remember and if I’m not stressing at others 😂 I’m hoping I get a BFP. I’m also just waiting incase my period is just playing games with me. I don’t want to be seeing another bfn either. I shall keep everyone updated tho and hopefully I get the answer I’m after 🤞🏻

OP posts:
lockdownbabyx · 15/02/2021 16:38

@Gablou fingers crossed for you! I admire your willpower, as I have none 😂. I'm only 8po and going crazy already and wanting to test, another week until AF is due 😫 xx

Gablou · 15/02/2021 16:40

@lockdownbabyx trust me after ttc since September (and I know many women try longer so I’m not trying to hurt anyone’s feelings) I’m fed up of testing early and wasting money to get bfn before my period. So the longer I wait the better the chance and I won’t be going through the upset of seeing negatives all the time as it will either be my period shows up or it doesn’t. Trying to have a more positive mind about it now and not pressure myself or my body. It’s took a lot to get in this frame of mind tho

OP posts:
lockdownbabyx · 15/02/2021 16:50

@Gablou no I totally understand where you are coming from. I've had 3 losses in total (no children yet), one of them being a chemical last month. I started bleeding a week after my BPF, so I'm also trying not to test early! The TWW just goes sooo slow doesn't it. I have a stash of tests aswell so I've done well so far not to test 🤣. AF due in a week so fingers crossed she does show🤞🏼 x

Gablou · 15/02/2021 16:59

@lockdownbabyx I hat the tww it’s the worst. Wish something else could happen to tell us if we’re having a period or not 😂 I’m sorry for your loss, hopefully we both get a BFP! yeah try and go as long as you can without testing. You’re doing well so far xx

OP posts:
Sussexgirlie5 · 15/02/2021 20:21

I’ve had some pink tonight so looks like af will be here tomorrow sigh

Gablou · 15/02/2021 21:53

@Sussexgirlie5 oh no! I’m sorry! I’ve got a bit of a pinching feeling in my right side and my discharge is a mixture so I’m still waiting

OP posts:
Sussexgirlie5 · 15/02/2021 22:34

Aww goodluck hun
I’ll be checking in on you x

Gablou · 15/02/2021 22:56

@Sussexgirlie5 thank you. As soon as I get one or the other I’ll be sure to update on here to let you know what’s happened xx

Op I deffo had that thick snotty mucus and got a bfp.
Unfortunately it's now a chemical pregnancy but I just wanted to say that It sound sound like you could be pregnant!! Good luck! Got my fingers crossed for you!

Gablou · 16/02/2021 00:44

@Horehound I’m so sorry for your loss! Thank you for another hopeful message! It was only abit that I had, if I didn’t check the paper I wouldn’t have noticed it and also got my other half to check incase I was seeing things 😂 the things I’ve got him to do to help me check 😂 and it was there that one time. It’s back to white lotion/watery discharge with a bit of a stretch.

OP posts:
lockdownbabyx · 16/02/2021 12:47

@Gablou I'm so annoyed at myself, I caved 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️. I woke up feeling horrendous this morning and I couldn't help myself. I think I see a line but it's mega faint, so I'm not getting excited until I test with an FR at the weekend.
Can you see it? Excuse the lockdown nails 🤣

@lockdownbabyx I think I see something but not 100%. deffo wait and test in a couple of more days. I’m a bit more crampy today but not my usual painful period cramps and my discharge is still the same as yesterday. Wet, white and stretchy 🙄 I just want to know now but going to wait another couple more days if I can hopefully.

OP posts:
lockdownbabyx · 16/02/2021 13:28

@Gablou yeah I can def see it in real life, but I'm not getting excited. I don't really trust the blue dye ones anyway.
I had thick cm in my last pregnancy which was last month, I usually dry up after ovulation. I actually posted about it on here I think. So fingers crossed that's all good signs! Xx
