4/5 dpo - anyone want to symptom spot?

So I swore that I wouldn't symptom spot this month but here I am! I'm cycle 3 and 4/5 dpo. I took soya isoflavones this month to bring O forward from day 21 of 29 day cycle. It worked and I ovulated day 15 or 16! I've never got past 9dpo before AF arriving so if I get to 10 or 11 dpo I'll test!

Anyone around same stage as me? Would be great to irrationally symptom spot with someone!

I'll be 7DPO tomorrow .. but my AF is due Saturday. Is there any point testing tomorrow? I know the answer is probably no but feel like it'll put my mind at rest and prepare me for AF Sunday Sad

Would anyone else test or just wait it out?

Can I please join you ladies?

I'm 6dpo and this is our first cycle TTC.

The only thing I've noticed in the past couple of days is cramps in my lower right abdomen (I'm pretty sure this is the side I ovulated too as I had painful ovulation cramps).

I'm also desperate to start testing but I know what the outcome will be for the next couple of days. When are you all going to try and hold out til?

Keeping my fingers crossed for you all! X

Fifi1086 · 17/03/2021 20:46

So FF adjusted my O day today and now says I'm 6dpo! So many of us around that now! I went for a walk with my 11 year old earlier and I was having cramps in my lower back, then all of a sudden I got this pulling pain in my uterus that stopped me in my tracks. The cramps were then going down my legs for the rest of the walk.

I went to the bathroom when I got home and I got the smallest pink specks and one pink streak in my cm.

I am obviously overthinking but trying so hard not to symptom spot too 🙈this month does feel very different from the rest and even my chart is so different. I think even if its not my month I'll be happy that everything looks more text book!

Ooh this sound promising!!
RoseP123 · 17/03/2021 20:59

Yes it was only 8 days after ovulation last month @lucea87

Those sound like positive signs @Fifi1086 !!

Dreamer30 · 17/03/2021 21:06

Mad that we're all around 6dpo lol hopefully a positive sign this month!

Fifi1086 · 17/03/2021 21:24

It's so nice to be able to talk to people about it who are in the same space!! My partner has said, come to me if we need to dtd or if you're pregnant, the rest is over my head 😂😂

@Fifi1086 I would love to join too :) 4DPO according to FF. o have very static temps as well but had weirdly sore boobs from around ovulation tome which I never experienced before. I'm a total POAS addict too so haha milking cheapies haha so I'll probably not going to wait until sensible time to test so probably wi start from 8DPO HAHA 😆

Blossom37 · 17/03/2021 22:50

Actually probably from 7DPO as I won't be able to wait 🤣

Missed ovulation day with dtd but really hope the days before would be enough...

Fifi1086 · 17/03/2021 22:59

Welcome @Blossom37 ! I'm 7dpo tomorrow and will definitely start the cheapies then. I'm getting a lot of pre AF symptoms now with sore boobs etc, hope it's not

@Fifi1086 oh fingers crossed it's not AF 🤞🏻 my sister had a faint line at 7DPO ☺️

Dreamer30 · 18/03/2021 06:57

Well it's 7dpo and I'm obsessed! So took a test and of course it's a bfn 😅 I knew it would be but I've felt nauseous since waking, boobs are still sore and heavy. I just feel a bit different today. AF isn't due for another 8 days and I wouldn't have the sore boobs and cramps as early as this. Hoping it's not all in my head!

MsRT · 18/03/2021 07:16

@Dreamer30 I've taken a test this morning too at 7dpo and of course a BFN haha! I knew it would be but I can't help myself

They all sound like promising signs though!

Dreamer30 · 18/03/2021 07:19

@MsRT it's so hard not to isn't it? 🙈 I think I'm going to try to hold out until 12dpo now but I'll probably cave about day 10 lol! Do you have amy symptoms?

Fifi1086 · 18/03/2021 07:53

I woke up feeling super nauseous and crampy with sore boobs, this is always how I feel when AF is coming but it's too early for that even for me! I'll test tomorrow if AF isn't here by then!

Janxyb · 18/03/2021 09:09

I'm 6dpo today and did a cheapie. What is wrong with me?!? Bfn of course 😂😂
I still have absolutely no symptoms so not feeling overly hopeful.
I have my second vaccine in a couple weeks so I guess if I'm out atleast I can go get that 😏😏 still going to poas everyday and stare at it for 30 mins though! Xx

Arrierttyclock · 18/03/2021 10:26

Ooh can I join please? 5DPO. I feel so sick and dizzy today and woke up with the worst headache ever ( I never get headaches) I knowwwww it's too early. It might be cos I had my 2ns COVID jab on Monday. It's our second cycle trying- came off the pill in jan and started trying after WB. Fingers crossed for us all!xx

Arrierttyclock · 18/03/2021 10:26

@Fifi1086 just seen you're the OP! We were on the other board together! Hope you get your BFP!xxz

Arrierttyclock · 18/03/2021 10:27

Looks like I'm among fellow POAS addicts. I spent a fortune on FRER last month so brought cheapies. Excited to start them! 5DPO is too early. I must resist

lucea87 · 18/03/2021 10:35

Morning ladies!

Still feeling sick today, boobs achey still but a different ache to before. I'm a crazy woman now. I'm terrified to test!!!

Hey ladies! Jumping in here 🥰

Month 3 OF TTC & first month of CB Advanced OPK... I am 10DPO, I've had spotting since 6DPO (Sunday!!) just when I wipe after a wee sometimes. Started pinky, went a bit reddy brown one wipe on Monday, now just a watery light brown?!

CD25, my cycles are 28-30 days so I really hope this is a good sign! Just can't find much on 'implantation bleeding' for 4/5 days 🤷🏻‍♀️ can't help worrying either.

I don't have children so literally don't know what to expect! Boobs are heavy, not necessarily sore, just achy and heavy, this also isn't put the ordinary for me before AF.

How confusing and frustrating is this TWW!

LKB89 · 18/03/2021 10:47

Oh and to add, I had a BFN FRER on Tuesday, which would have only been 8DPO so I've promised myself NO testing till Sunday!

Don't know what to think 🤔
