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!

Hi girls, can I join?

I'm 8dpo, we're not supposed to be trying this month because we have our holiday rebooked for November. @lockdownbabyx Congratulations on your bfp. We thought OV was a week away and turned out we dtd night before I got a huge positive on a OPK. I've felt like I've been hit by a bus since Sunday... funny throat and a runny nose. Starting to get better today. Wonder if these are normal symptoms. I've had. 2 babies but can't remember how I was! X

@lockdownbabyx thank you, I hope so. I’m going to be so upset if I get a bfn or my period shows up.

@marcella64 fingers crossed I’m hoping we all get our BFP this cycle. How many dpo are you?

@marcella64 sorry, I’m really not with it this evening. Just read you’re 8dpo 🤦🏼‍♀️

@Gablou I'm 8dpo. I'm cool either way this month. We where holding off trying until April onwards. We started trying in December then the holiday got rebooked due to Covid so we stopped but if it happens the holiday can go on hold. I've been in bed every night by 7pm this week, I've just read your immune system is depressed to alow for implantation so you can feel a bit rubbish. Either that or I've got a cold lol. I could have a sore toe and I'd find it on google as a symptom of early pregnancy lol

Gablou · 17/02/2021 21:13

@marcella64 I was the exact same as you, google something and it’s possible pregnancy, I’ve really mellowed out this cycle tho thank god as I was going crazy, hopefully that’s what mine is then. Fingers crossed still for you

Hey ladies. So I’ve just done a test just now, it’s a bfn, still no sign of my period either. I’m going to test in the morning and then again in a couple of days if it’s still a bfn

Hmm I was convinced you would be. I'd have thought you should have been able to see some kind of line even with not using morning pee because you are passed your missed period date now aren't you?

Sorry don't want to be a doom monger but don't want to get your hopes up. But there is still hope until af shows so wishing you luck x

Gablou · 18/02/2021 16:43

@Horehound yeah I was due my period mon/tues. I’ve been convinced I am but not getting my hopes up just incase my period is just late. Unless there’s not enough hcg levels in my urine yet 🤷🏼‍♀️ Just a waiting game I guess. Like I said, I’ll do a test first thing tomorrow and then I’ll wait a few more days if it’s still a bfn. If nothing by the middle of next week then I’ll ring the doctors and get bloods done

Horehound · 18/02/2021 16:48

Yeh good plan. did you get an early response test?

Gablou · 18/02/2021 16:52

No the shop was too busy and I suffer with panic attacks if I’m in crowded shops. I went into Poundland and got there’s, they’re pink dye ones which I believe are better than blue ones

OP posts:
Gablou · 18/02/2021 17:07

I’ve also read that some women don’t get a BFP until they’re a week late, maybe more, so that could be the case for me. Just fed up of waiting now and I just want to know or something to happen now

lockdownbabyx · 18/02/2021 17:34

@Gablou I'm sorry you got a bfn 😔. Are you still feeling rubbish too? Xx

Horehound · 18/02/2021 17:53

Oh yeh deffo, there is still hope. Fingers crossed xxx

Gablou · 18/02/2021 17:57

@lockdownbabyx feeling just full and sluggish today. Few cramps today too but nothing major and still no sign of period, discharge is the same so I really don’t know. Thank you tho

Thank you to all of you for being here for me xx

lockdownbabyx · 18/02/2021 18:00

@Gablou maybe leave it a couple of days, any chance you can get hold of a FR? I know the cheap tests are red dye, but FR are by far the most sensitive.

I'm sorry you're going through all this uncertainty, I know how awful it is Thanks xx

Gablou · 18/02/2021 18:14

@lockdownbabyx no I can’t get hold of one until my partner gets paid at the end of the month. I’ll just do my plan of doing a test in the morning and then again in a few days and if nothing then I’ll go to the doctors. Hopefully something happens before then but it’s just a waiting game. Or I could be completely missing this cycle entirely. I know that happens sometimes to women. Thank you, I’ll be okay tho xx

Any update.
How you getting on @Gablou ?

Gablou · 22/02/2021 12:40

Hey everyone so Aunt Flo has literally shown herself just now! With a vengeance 🙄 With a lot of googling I think it’s to do with the birth control I was on. I got the implant out last September and had 26/27 day cycles since then. Maybe this past cycle was my body getting back to a normal for itself as it was a 33 day cycle this time 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m just happy I’m now on my period so I can try again. Thank you for all of your support tho throughout this past mad cycle I’ve had! Xxxx
