Hi everyone looking for a bit of advice. TTC #2 and according to OPKs and app I ovulated on the 18th. Last few days have been dizzy, nauseated very like when I was pregnant before. My question is has anyone had these symptoms this early and go on to get BFP 8DPO or I am being totally unrealistic testing that early. Have close relatives party tomorrow and will test in am but will need to come up with an excuse for not drinking if still in TWW!

Hi I am 8dpo too and have felt dizzy more when standing from sitting. No nausea though but feeling hotter, thirstier and leg cramp?
I won’t be resting until my af is later because I hate the disappointment and trying to analyse a faint line.
Could you just say that you can’t drink because you are trying to be healthy or just have 1 maybe a spritzer. Your choice ☺️.
Good luck you have a lot of symptoms xxx

Overandabove1 · 25/02/2022 11:27

@Maybebaby7 all sounds promising for you too! That’s what I’ll do I think maybe keep the same drink if front of me for the night and hope it’s not noticed. Thanks fingers crossed for us both 🤞🏻Smile

Yes that sounds good. At least then you won’t have a faint line to analyse.
Yes baby dust to us both. Keep me posted here xx

Can I jump on this post??

I've been TTC for 8 months now.
My cycles vary in length. The last one was 34 days. According to my app, on a 34 day cycle then I ovulated last Thursday 17th Feb, although I had symptoms of ovulation a day or two before that.
Me and my OH DTD 14th, 16th and 18th on week of suspected ovulation.
20th I noticed what I assume was light spotting. It only last one day. 21st I had some white creamy CM (sorry if TMI)
Ever since I've had cramping and what feels like a pulling feeling down below.
On the morning (23rd feb) I've had some nausea. Had to run to the bathroom but was only retching, nothing came up.
Has anyone had these and gone on to have a BFP.
It's too early for me to test yet as AF shouldn't be due till next week.
Today I am on CD 28, but like I say, my cycles have been more 34 days. I have some backache and when I sneezed I felt a sharp pain on the left of my pelvis. I seem to be feeling 'wet' down there the past 2 days too. There isn't a lot of CM but my other half even noticed just how wet I was then we DTD last night (tmi sorry)

Keeping my fingers crossed that it's a good sign. I have a daughter who is 8 and would love a sibling.

Sorry if my post is confusing, I'm new here!

Walkinthesun · 25/02/2022 13:29

@Overandabove1 also, I would just maybe have one drink. Or if you drive, use that as an excuse?
I'm out with family tonight and I'm in the same boat but I'm going to drive so that's my excuse to not drink.
Fingers crossed for you Smile

Overandabove1 · 25/02/2022 18:40

@Walkinthesun of course welcome 😊 all sounds like positive signs for you too! Think I’ll use the driving thing like you said be the easiest. Enjoy your night and hopefully BFPs are on the way for all of us soon 🤞🏻

@Overandabove1 thank you. Think I've eaten too much, I was bloated before I went out but now my tummy is definitely sticking out.
AF is due in the next 5 days so I'm hoping with everything that she doesn't arrive.
Please keep me updated! Enjoy your night also 😊

Abbylouise1 · 26/02/2022 08:45

Hi ladies,
Keeping my fingers crossed for you all!
I’m currently 16DPO and 5 days late for my period. Still no sign on AF, i had some cramping a few days ago but that’s gone now, feel fatigued and a bit of a stuffy cold. Still getting BFN so I’m not sure what my body is doing, anyone else experienced this?
Thank you

Walkinthesun · 26/02/2022 09:32

@Abbylouise1 morning!
Are your cycles usually on time?

Abbylouise1 · 26/02/2022 10:17

@Walkinthesun they can vary by a few days they’re definitely not exact but I’m on CD 34 now

Walkinthesun · 26/02/2022 11:30

@Abbylouise1 it's not over until AF comes.
Maybe just wait a few days and test again?
Keeping fingers crossed for you.

I think I might be out. Noticed some pink spotting this morning. AF could be arriving.

Abbylouise1 · 26/02/2022 11:46

@Walkinthesun thank you my lovely!

Keeping my fingers crossed for you on your next cycle ✨ baby dust your way

Walkinthesun · 26/02/2022 12:03

@Abbylouise1
Thank you!
I am confused though, I just checked my cervix and it's still high up.
Having pain on the left side of my pelvis too.
Wonder if it could be implantation maybe?
Wouldn't my cervix be low if AF was coming?

Abbylouise1 · 26/02/2022 14:00

@Walkinthesun
Sounds like there could still be a chance, keeping everything crossed. Yeah I heard that your cervix comes down when AF is coming

Walkinthesun · 26/02/2022 17:50

@Abbylouise1 hopefully!
Still having some cramping and random sharp pains.
Been quite gassy today too 🙈
How are your symptoms?

Overandabove1 · 26/02/2022 18:53

@Walkinthesun thank you Smile

So did a frer just now and can see the faintest line! Going to do one again tomorrow with fmu

@Overandabove1 oh wow! I see it too 😍
Let me know how the morning one goes but its looking pretty positive to me! 🎉

Maybebaby7 · 26/02/2022 19:42

Congrats Op! I see it xxx

Overandabove1 · 27/02/2022 10:19

Thanks everyone here’s this mornings Smile hard to believe I’d get a line at 9DPO but I definitely had symptoms all week. My ovulation tests showed ovulation on the 18th so think the dates are right! Hoping your BFPs will be next xx

@Overandabove1 awww congratulations ❤
9dpo is early for a positive test so that's amazing.
I've had abit of spotting yesterday morning and then nothing but a tiny but this morning again.
I reckon AF could be on her way 😔

Maybebaby7 · 27/02/2022 13:19

I don’t think I am all my symptoms have now completely gone 😢

Walkinthesun · 27/02/2022 18:01

@Maybebaby7 has AF arrived? You're not out till then!
I had spotting this morning but it's stopped again now.
Felt bloated, sick at times and having cramps today. My cervix seems to have softened too.
Trying to wait a couple days to test incase AF arrives. The TWW is horrible!!

Maybebaby7 · 28/02/2022 08:33

@Walkinthesun no at due until Friday but I am 11 dpo i ov early so I’m going ti buy a FR after school run. X

Maybebaby7 · 28/02/2022 10:09

BFN for me x

Walkinthesun · 28/02/2022 10:12

@Maybebaby7 oh that is still early. I wouldn't stress yet 😊
AF is due for me tomorrow. Did a frer test which came back negative. Used 2nd pee of the day though which wasn't even 2 hours after first. Don't know whether that could be why.
Cervix is still high and quite soft 😩
Let me know how you get on 😊 x
