6dpo - wait with me?

[Th197]

Heyyy! 6dpo today, hoping some other ladies will hop on and can wait together 💜

I thought I knew... I'm using a period tracker app that shows ovulation days but it's based on last month's cycle of 25 days so no idea really! Have realised it's probably not the best way to keep track so yeah, guess I'll have to just take a test, I don't want to, would rather not know than be disappointed haha

@HR92 I understand haha. I keep thinking I wish I would just start spotting /af come now if I'm not pregnant.
Have you had any signs of ovulation? Cervical mucus / position / opks / bbt?
I've only been tracking cervical mucus and position with the odd opk thrown in when I feel like it

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow yeah haha it's so annoying!
Did have some cervical mucus around when I thought I was ovulating but did no tests ect. Have been trying to not obsess too much over everything, when I first came off the pill I wrote down every little change but it's so stressful. So after my period came back I accepted it could take a while to get pregnant and got used to thinking af would appear on time every month. Well that's gone out the window now app says I'm 7 days late haha

@HR92 how do you feel in yourself? Any tiredness, bloating, nausea? Have you got a date in mind at which point you'll do a test if AF hasn't come, or just going to wait and see how you feel?

I'm 13 dpo today, AF due tomorrow. No spotting yet. Did have some cramps yesterday evening so will see if it comes. I have noticed I feel horrifically nauseous this morning though.

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow Fingers crossed for you! How long have you been trying?
I feel fine, nausea on Monday, sore boobs and stomach twinges for a week but that could just be PMS. I almost did a test this morning, but think I'll wait another week just to see
Are you usually on time? Will you test tomorrow if af doesn't arrive?

Only officially since May, however we have been planning on trying since last August, been waiting on hearing how covid restrictions have been easing to decide to try. So although not that long actually trying, it's been forever in my mind haha.

My period is usually bang on day 27, with spotting day 25 and 26. I usually ovulate on day 13.
I think I'll wait until Saturday just in case I'm a bit late but I don't know if I'll manage it! Did an opk just because I had one in my bag and that was positive again 😬

@dbaby725 how are you? Any signs of AF yet? You're due today as well if I remember right?

Gave in and tested 9dpo. Negative :(

Yep I’m due today. No signs of AF but also got a BFN on a FRER so I’m not hopeful now.

What about you?

@Regularsizedrudy 9dpo is still really early, you've got a great chance still. Only something like 50% of pregnant women will show as positive on a test at 9dpo, the rest still come up as negative. www.countdowntopregnancy.com/pregnancy-test/dpo-chart.php?dpo=9 this is a really good chart.

@dbaby725 you aren't out till AF shows, hopefully its a false negative.

I've not tested yet, but I'm starting to get cramps so I think I'm most likely out. Going to try and wait until Saturday to confirm with a test. I've actually got a job interview next week, so it wouldn't be too bad of a thing if I wasn't pregnant because otherwise a new job wouldn't be ideal regarding maternity pay.

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow thank you that gives me hope. I’m new to all this and having trouble accurately tracking everything. I’m in the same position as many pp in that we only recently started trying due to covid but have been planning for months

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow
Fingers crossed that AF doesn’t show for you. It’s horrible all this waiting isn’t it.

Still no AF for me. Been having cramps and twinges for a few days now but they have eased off today.

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow and good luck for your interview 🤞

@dbaby725 no AF for me either yet. Had some cramps yesterday but gone now. I did a cervix check yesterday and it was very closed which hopefully is a good thing? I did notice the tiniest tinge of pink in my cervical mucus though after checking. I mean literally the tiniest bit, and so pale it could've just been the light but I don't know.
Femometer says "period late by 1 day" now. I might do a test tomorrow if it doesn't come today.
What you thinking of doing?

Morning everyone! Any more bfps? I’ve had a temp of 37.1-3 for 3 days now. Normal temp is 36.6-8. I’m really hoping it’s a good sign and not just that I picked up whatever bug DS got from nursery (he was puking last night, but back to normal this morning). Does anyone know if it’s too soon to test? My ovulation window was 5 days so it’s either 13 or 8 dpo

13dpo you should have a pretty accurate result. 8dpo you would most likely get a negative test even if you are pregnant tbh. Only about 18% of pregnant women will show positive at 8dpo.

I've not tested yet. I'm a day late but I'm trying to wait a couple more days to see if AF comes.

I've been lurking, but am going to post because I'm going out my frigging mind here! Need to vent!

9dpo, only did the deed a couple of times before ovulation but for about a week now I've had cramps, back ache, aching/tingly boobs, nausea, stupidly hungry, and I've been utterly zonked out. Smell is a bit heightened, but I can bear to make coffee, which is a bonus on last time.

I lost my daughter at 21 weeks in September, so am super heightened to anything vaguely pregnancy related, have peed on numerous FRER sticks - all negative without even the faintest whiff of a second line - but, why do I feel so sodding pregnant?!? 😭

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow that’s what I thought- thanks for confirming. Will test on Tuesday, feels like a year away! Good luck for tomorrow, will be thinking of you with fingers crossed

Welcome @SlipperTripper I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. It sounds like you’ll be testing soon too, got my fingers crossed for you too!

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow
Morning 😊
Nothing here yet. No sign of AF today. My app says I’m now 2 days late but I had a BFN again this morning. Who knows what’s happening but I’m just waiting for AF now and to get started on my next cycle.

That does sound promising! Keep me updated.

@SlipperTripper maybe you are just too early to show on a test? I'm so so sorry for your loss ❤. I know what you mean about feeling pregnant though, sometimes you just "know".

@littlejalapeno hopefully you get a good result on Tuesday!

@dbaby725 still no AF for me either, but I think it will be starting soon. Had another bit of pink tinged cervical mucus this morning

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow any signs of AF today? Still nothing for me. It’s so strange.

@dbaby725 nope nothing. Not even bloody cervical mucus so far today. I've still not tested though 🤣. Don't want it to be negative haha. Cervix now extremely high, can barely feel it. Softer but still closed.
I might test tomorrow if AF doesn't come today. Or maybe I'll wait for Monday 🤣.
Have you done another test? Any other signs? Do you do cervix checks or anything?

@Sunshinedaisybuttermellow I hope you get that bfp! My cervix is low and hard. Can talk myself into thinking I just had the same bug as my kid, or that it’s early signs of pregnancy. I’ve been craving lemons and meat. Signs of low iron independent of pregnancy apparently! 😆😬😅

AF has made an appearance for me unfortunately so I’m out this month.

Good luck ladies.

@dbaby725 oh I'm sorry . Fingers crossed this is the month!!
