10dpo BFP…symptoms during TWW

[Mam2one]

I excitedly got my bfp today…here’s the symptoms I experienced during my TWW…

1-3dpo slight cramping, sneezing 1/2 times a day, stuffy nose, a lot of gas from (burping/farting sorry!) very irritable.
3-7dpo TMI…got one big blob of clear CM (thought was unusual) cramping, twinges in pelvic area, on and off dull ache sometimes coming from left/right side, a lot of gas, breasts felt fuller and warmer. Still sneezing everyday and stuffy nose - thought I had a sinus infection. No CM at all.

8-9dpo - BFN on both days thought I had squinter made a poll - most couldn’t see it lol , BBs felt bigger and fuller, bit like water balloons, cramps felt like AF was coming, a lot of gas still, no CM at all, heartburn (never get this only when heavily pg with DS) cloudy urine, noticed my urine smelled very strong a bit like asparagus (googled it and a lot of women said that was their first symptom - didn’t want to get my hopes up), started crying when watching beginning of UP with DS and then talking to my OH about my gran - partner joked I should test. Stuffy nose subsiding and sneezing still at least once a day.

10dpo - felt strange cramping like 1am couldn’t sleep thought AF coming but dry and no CM- took a test. Urine very diluted, thought maybe had a hint of a line but stark white. 9:40am took a test strip 25miu vfl but pink. 11:30am 25miu stick - cheapie from poundstrecher - another vivid but faint line. 2 BFP. Sneezing stopped and cramps still lingering.

Thought I would share for anyone that is symptoms spotting as the sneezing and congested stuffy nose everyday, No CM, fuller boobs and smelly urine, gas, cramps and heartburn were the main ones for me.

Hope this helps someone as I was searching all of these symptoms like a mad woman from 1dpo and very few would update whether or not they got a BFN/BFP…🙈.

Hi @Mam2one

First of all congratulations!

Second of all thank you, that’s very helpful and hopeful . I’m 6 DPO and the biggest difference I notice to my previous cycles is very little to no CM. Ive read on the internet that usually women get more CM because of the increased progesterone levels so I thought I’m out this month. Your post brought me some hope😀

Also instead of feeling more tired/sleepy/irritable I’m quite chilled & energetic.

I’ve experienced some bloating/loose bowel movement but nothing else out of the ordinary.

My AF is due on Thursday but I doubt I’ll be able to wait to test till then - I’ll try First response Sunday morning.

Thank you for sharing and congratulations!

I’m roughly 2/3 DPO (I’ve not used OPK, just tracked using an app) and wondered what people’s symptoms are!

My boobs are so sore and I’ve had a dull ache on the left side for the last two days. Not holding out hope as it’s so soon.

Good to see things listed like this though.

Hey @Mummytobe93 thank you very much, rather still surprised tbh.

Just wanted to throw a little post out there because I found it so frustrating trying to see if anyone had the same symptoms as I did and i was just getting BFNs even though it was still early and I was using cheap tests.

I felt this same tbh randomly 8-10dpo I felt like I had a lot of energy and like ‘at peace’ weird how to describe it.

Yeh I was completely dry and still am which was a bit weird n thought might be getting a uti or something but everyone is different I guess.

Good luck with testing, I’m going to get another one tonight to check lines are getting darker on a FRER or CB digital as I’ve only used the cheapie strips and test. Didn’t want to splash out as I’ve spent a fortune in the past.

Keep me posted with how you get on! .

@Firsttimetrier thank you!

I didn’t use opk’s either just tracked ovulation and DTD two/three days before n one after. That’s why I’m quite surprised. Lol

I was the same in the beginning but just kept logging everything on my app and Googling lol as if I told my partner he probably would think I was nuts!

Just thought if I ever get pregnant in the future I could refer back to. TBF I would probably still stalk the forums again. Lol

Good luck with your TWW, l would love to hear how you get on.

Strange as I am 3 dpo and have very similar symptoms!! Stuffy nose out of nowhere and period like cramps (not due for another 11 days) keeping an eye out 🤣

Thank you! I’m feeling all sorts of oddness that I wouldn’t normally get in the lead up to AF. However, some of this may be down to the fact that I’m at the in-law’s who love to feed us!

I’m so bloated, an on-off dull ache on my left side that lasts for an hour or so, had waves of nausea and just so tired. And my boobs, they are SO painful.

Not going to get excited or think too much into it though until the end of the month.

Thank you sooooo much for this! I feel like I've been waiting to see this for days! I'm around 7/8 DPO (just tracking form the app) and I've been feeling 'off' this whole week- exhausted, headaches, cramping and today nipples started to ache. I've been googling mad if it's possible to feel any symptoms so early but couldn't find anything, so this is just what I've been searching for 😃

Congratulations!!! 🥳

@Mam2one thank you, I find it really useful!! And massive congrats!

Good luck for the rest of us still waiting
