3dpo thread!

[Amy1010101]

Hello, I’m currently (well.. I think!) 3dpo today and wanted to start a thread for anyone in a similar position. I had mild cramping yesterday, which seemed strange for early dpo but I think anything can happen and our bodies do strange things.

Bit of background info for me, I’m 30, currently on month 9 trying to conceive, had a chemical MC last March so hoping for some positivity. 😩

Hiya, I'm 1dpo today (I think) and this is my first cycle trying to conceive #2. Did you experience any pain/cramping during ovulation? I did but can't be sure it's ovulation pain. Sorry to hear about your chemical, sending you baby dust!

I did but it wasn’t as bad as it usually is. Normally it’s quite painful but this time round it was more of a dull ache. Also, normally my boobs would be super painful to touch just after ovulation but it’s hardly anything this time which is strange for me. I think I ovulated quite late too. Who knows this time!!

Hi!

Firstly, I'm sorry to hear about your chemical last March ❤️ I'm also 3dpo. This is cycle 14 after losing our wee boy later on in my pregnancy last July. Really feeling so desperate lately for it to finally be our turn! I started acupuncture last week so I'm hoping it maybe helps 🤞

I've got cramping today as well! The TWW just never gets any easier or quicker, does it 😂 x

I'm so sorry to hear of your losses ♥️

I'm currently 3DPO and feeling very crampy. I am definitely a POAS addict 😬

I am 40, my eldest is 20 and my youngest 17. My partner and I are TTC our first together. During my last pg, my waters broke at 22 weeks and I lost my son at 28 weeks following a cs. This was almost 13 years ago. I'm hoping I'm not too late to try again, although I'm so scared that it could happen again.

Baby dust to all TTC 💕

Hi everyone.

So sorry to hear of peoples loses on here 💕 sending lots of baby dust out and thinking of you all over the next few weeks.

Just wanted to say Hi. I’m 2dpo and on cycle 3 trying for #2. Finding the TTW wait really tough, overthinking everything! Any tips on distraction very welcome 🙈

How’s everyone doing today? xx

Heya! I think I’m currently 5dpo. I’ve had slight cramping, boobs hurt, and my cervix is still high up. (Lots of research) which seems like a good sign. I compared it to last month where AF did show and it was very low. I find it hard to be distracted too as it’s the only thing I can think about until the TWW is over. I am more chill this time and if I doesn’t happen this month I may stop tracking. X

I'm 6dpo and have been trying for about 18 months now. It is far too early for symptoms but I've struggled with acid reflux yesterday and today. I also have some backache which I've had many times in the TWW so not holding out much hope.

When I was pregnant with my chemical in March I had very bad acid reflux and heartburn, I never had it before or since. So I’m sort of hoping I have it again haha!

Currently 6dpo, how is everyone feeling?

I've got very mild period aches - in the top of my legs. This also isn't particularly unusual for me sadly (I've kept a note of symptoms throughout my cycle quite a lot over the last 18 months). I'm 7dpo now.

I'm going crazy during this tww 😫

I have had some cramping at one side in my lower back the past two days and felt pretty rotten yesterday spent the day in my pj's with a persistent headache which felt worse when standing.

AF due 8th September.

Who knows what is happening, I do feel like my body is preparing for something which it doesn't want me to know about yet 🤣 sometimes you just get that feeling don't you?

Good luck everyone 🤞

I know! TTW is driving me crazy, really need to stop googling how quickly can I do a pregnancy test 🤣

That sounds positive @allthingssparkly. @Amy1010101 glad you’re feeling more chilled this time, maybe being more relaxed will help!

I’m feeling okay, no symptoms really so just trying to carry on as normal and not be disheartened. At work today which is good because it’s keeping me busy. AF due 11th, when is everyone else due?

Anyone got any nice weekend plans?!

X

@Hello47 When are you going to test?

I have a busy family weekend so hopefully that will distract me from wanting to test too soon 😅

The lower back twinges at one side keep coming and going apart from that I have zero symptoms, not sure if that's a good or bad sign 😫

I tested yesterday because I can’t resist, nothing yet but obviously as I was only 6dpo 😂 my symptoms have disappeared so not holding my breath this month. I got super down yesterday as no one tells you how hard this actually is.

@Amy1010101 is it so hard isn't it, I feel like I'm so close to testing but yet so far 😫

My cycle between July and August's period was 31 days so I'm not even due on till 12th September going off a 31 day cycle 🙈 I thought I was due on the 8th Sept, oooops!

The wait honesty is driving me insaneee!

Hiya, hope you don't mind me joining this thread? I think I am 4DPO today and wouldn't mind someone to talk through throughout the 2ww. A bit about me, my hubby and I got pregnant in April this year but we lost the baby at 10wks but found out at the 12wk scan. Devastated is not even the right word. Now we are ttc again and I ovulated I think last week. I had a positive ovulation test strip anyway and some of the right symptoms. I am using a couple apps as well to track my cycle. I am just hoping we have done enough this month. AF due potentially the 15th Sept.

Hope everyone else gets their wishes for a bundle very soon, I am sad to read others stories - it just isn't fair. I've currently had 2 family members and 2 other people I know have pop babies out!! It's heartbreaking!!

Sammi x

So sorry for your loss, I can’t even imagine. I have all my fingers crossed this is your time! One of my friends gave birth yesterday and one is due anytime soon, so I know how that feels. Super super happy for them only with a touch of sadness that it isn’t me as well. One day!

Morning everyone.

@allthingssparkly trying to hold out until Tuesday so 5 days before missed period but I’ll only be 9dpo so might be too early I guess. Its hard trying to work out symptoms isn’t it!

@Amy1010101 yeah I tested soooo much last month, I just got really sad every time it was negative. 6dpo is early so there’s definitely still a good chance! Sooooo hard 😩

@SammiStap hi Sammi! So sorry to hear of your loss, that must of been so difficult for you. Really hope there’s good news for you this month 🌈 It’s really hard when everyone else is having babies, very mixed emotions. Feel like there’s a pregnancy announcement every week atm

No plans today but got a roast with friends tomorrow so that’s a good distraction! Although won’t be able to have any wine 🥴

Hi everyone

Hope youre all well. Im currently roughly 4dpo due 14th sept. I ntend to test after my period is due. Mainly because last month i was 100% convinced i was pregnant drove myself around the bend only for af to make an appearance on time! so i am not holding my breath. No symptoms to speak of so far.

@Hello47 it is difficult, the only symptom I've had over this weekend is period cramps but I'm not due on yet 🤷‍♀️

x

Same! Pulling sensations and light cramping.. but that isn’t unusual before AF. x

@Amy1010101 Its unusual for me as I don't normally get any sort of cramping until the day af arrives 😫😫 x

Omg I’ve been getting odd feelings in my lower abdomen too. Like @MadamMaltesers said, I’m not getting any hopes up as last month I convinced myself I was and then af came in full force! I’m dpo6 today and I’m just telling myself it’s only the uterine lining preparing itself for the end of the cycle! No other symptoms though.

10dpo today and I slept 10 hours last night! No other symptoms though.

I caved and did a test, negative of course. I’m not holding my breath this time though. No real symptoms anymore, only mild sore boobs and nothing else. I feel a bit deflated as this will be going into my 10th month trying. I don’t understand how it’s so hard to conceive, I track my ovulation, I know myself physically when it happens too. We DTD mostly everyday in the window leading up to ovulation and a bit after for luck. Yet nothing except for the Chemical in March. I have regular cycles too. No health or thyroid issues. I’m 30 so don’t know if that’s got anything to do with it?

I’m sad.
