7dpo symptoms

Hi all - looking for anyone who can share their experiences.

I’m currently 7dpo and have had cramping/twinges in lower abdomen since 5dpo. On 5 and 6 dpo I had back pain like sciatica on my left side only. I normally feel ovulation and not implantation - do we think this could be implantation? Has anyone had similar then had a BFP?

I have had 3 early losses and have felt little cramps before but normally later in the cycle. I should point out I ovulated a week later than expected this cycle too.

Anyone out there can share experiences at 7dpo that led to a BFP? And when they got a BFP?

I usually get sore boobs after O but have only had tender nipples for a few days and now there is nothing. I have also dried up almost completely with CM which is unusual. Tried to check my cervix and couldn’t reach it - is this good or bad at this stage? I don’t frequently check I must admit.

Sending lots of love to all those ttc x

How are you feeling now @tashadae27 ? You’re being very controlled not testing, it sounds like you’ve got lots of positive signs! I really hope this is it for you!

I had my appointment tonight, he said I should keep trying for another 6 months before they would look at other options. He couldn’t really think of anything different we could do and doesn’t think I should worry. Even though he didn’t tell me anything I didn’t know, I still felt a lot better afterwards.

tashadae27 · 12/10/2022 22:36

I'm so pleased you feel better after the appointment @vitahelp I was thinking about you this evening 😊sometimes just talking to someone alleviates some of the anxieties/intrusive thoughts.

I'm so bloated right now, I feel like my lower region is about to pop, I've had rennies hoping it helps! I've been getting the pains again on and off most the evening but they're more like twinges/dull throbbing? I can't stop peeing again. Really starting to notice any little thing again now and I've got to stop or I'll go crazy.
I'll let you know what my temp does in the morning 😊

vitahelp · 13/10/2022 07:44

Thank you @tashadae27 I was sat in the waiting room thinking it was a mistake and was going to feel like a waste of time/make me feel worse. But it really did help to talk it through, even though he didn't tell me anything I didn't already know it just put my mind at rest.

I don't blame you for overthinking when you're having so many symptoms! How was your temp this morning? I hope it's still nice and high! Mine stayed the same as yesterday, it is still a bit above the coverline but much lower than it would be if I was pregnant.

vitahelp · 13/10/2022 07:45

Here’s my chart as of today, send yours if you can xx

Bless you @vitahelp I'm glad it put your mind at rest. Oh you use fertility friend, I've seen lots of people use that, I just use my natural cycles graph. Temp this morning still nice and high at 36.87, I've attached a copy of my graph below x

@tashadae27 Morning! I hope your temp is still high this morning? Mine has dropped below the coverline this month so expecting AF today or tomorrow. I feel ok about it, I got all the upset and disappointment out of the way a few days ago when my temp first started dropping. This is the first cycle I've not tested which is a turning point for me, I do think it was partly due to my temps dropping quite early so I didn't really need to test to know I wasn't pregnant this month.

tashadae27 · 14/10/2022 09:41

@vitahelp I'm sorry to hear that lovely 😞
Temp rose again today to 36.96! Lots of thin but CCM yesterday and this morning. But of nausea this morning and just a general heavy bloated feeling down below. Will test tomorrow and let you know.

@Geemmm how are you doing? X

vitahelp · 14/10/2022 10:59

@tashadae27 That sounds amazing, well done for waiting until tomorrow to test! I really hope it is good news, let me know xx

Geemmm · 14/10/2022 15:39

Sorry I've been MIA ladies - been feeling a bit meh.

How are you both?

Sorry to hear that @vitahelp - when are you actually due AF?

All signs sounding positive there @tashadae27 - keep us updated girl!

I tested today with FMU and got a BFN on a FRER. Don't really feel anything compared to previous cycles when I have had a BFP, and have always had a BFP on 12dpo If there was gonna be one, so I think I am out this month. Really shouldn't be so disheartened as I started the cycle saying 'I'm not tracking and I've not get pregnant' bla bla - but I was secretly hoping it would actually maybe be the cycle for us.

Are u gonna test tomorrow then @tashadae27 ? Fingers crossed!!

Hey @Geemmm aw sorry to hear that too 😢

Yeah my app said af was due today and it never came as temp rose to higher than its ever been, been super tired today at work unlike me, yawning all day and heavy sleepy eyes! Boobs are on fire tonight.
Will test tomorrow regardless of what bbt does in the morning. Originally app said due af Sunday but then it changed to today. Probs cos I'm known to have a shorter LP occasionally. Will keep you posted in the morning xx

tashadae27 · 15/10/2022 08:00

Morning ladies. I have some news!....😍

Geemmm · 15/10/2022 08:03

@tashadae27 yes girl - congratulations 🥰. Those temp rises were definitely on track! How you feeling this morning?

OP posts:
tashadae27 · 15/10/2022 08:13

@Geemmm I'm feeling very emotional/worried/anxious but happy.
I was sick this morning it woke me up at 5 am and the sharp pains I had at work the other day were a give away i think. But on the other hand I am very conscious of my wonderful news and how it may affect others. As someone who has in recent months been very sad at other people's pregnancy news I'm conscious about how others may be feeling surrounding mine. Don't get me wrong I'm so happy but other people's feelings are still and always will be at the forefront of my mind.
I'll have to update my diabetes team and go from there. But thank you so much for your congratulations :) x

Geemmm · 15/10/2022 09:01

@tashadae27 I get that girl - but this is your experience and you get to feel all the feelings you want 🥰. I understand feeling anxious etc. after experiences you have had but I will be sending you lots of positive vibes that this pregnancy will be a happy and healthy one! Have you told your OH? X

tashadae27 · 15/10/2022 09:04

Ah thank you @Geemmm
Yeah hes away but I video called him as soon as he woke up and told him a package had arrived haha. He's a very happy hubby 😌i was gonna wait til he got home tomorrow but I just couldn't xx

Geemmm · 15/10/2022 09:12

@tashadae27 that's exciting - it's so lovely sharing the news 🥰!

What have you got planned for today? Are you stilling feeling sicky? X

vitahelp · 15/10/2022 09:33

@tashadae27 Omg!! I knew it 😀😀 Congratulations 🎉 I didn’t want to jinx things before by typing it but I was so sure you were pregnant with the high temps you’ve had and symptoms! So happy for you 🥰
Try not to worry (but as a worrier myself I know that can be impossible!), you can always share with us here when you’re feeling anxious about things.
Thats so kind to feel concerned about those around you, just trust that people will be happy for you even if it is hard at the same time. And with the way you are approaching it and how aware you are of other peoples feelings it is so unlikely you will upset anyone xxxx

vitahelp · 15/10/2022 09:47

@Geemmm I’m sorry to her about your bfn. When are you due AF? Mine should arrive today, I had cramps yesterday but they have stopped today. I’m quite certain it will happen today though, I keep getting my hopes up that I could still be pregnant as I haven’t tested but my temps are very low and it would be virtually impossible with temps like that!
I kind of just want AF here now so I can accept I’m out this cycle and move on to the next one xx

tashadae27 · 15/10/2022 10:12

Thanks ladies! Relaxing today @Geemmm, I've got a headache and just feel tired (probs didn't help being wide awake at 5am)!
@vitahelp thanks for your kind words, I'm always hyper aware of everyone else's feelings it's just who I am.
Will have to be seen by early pregnancy unit at 6 weeks but I'm keeping positive!
I'm so glad I met you both here, and thank you for saying I can share my anxieties here, and the same goes to both of you, too! 🤗

vitahelp · 15/10/2022 19:26

Hi ladies! I’m so glad I found this thread and met you both here too! 🥰

I’ve had a busy day shopping with my Mum & DD and only recently noticed AF isn’t here yet. Should have been today but I was a bit confused about when I ovulated this month so may have had dates wrong.
Not going to lie though, it’s half getting my hopes up that I might still be in with a chance which I know is ridiculous given my plummeting temps! Doesn’t help that I’ve been getting little sharp pains in my pelvis for 2 days, feels a bit like what I get when I’m already on my period. It’s probably just my body heading towards AF starting though..

vitahelp · 15/10/2022 19:44

Quick update - AF started now. Feeling a little bit sad but was quite sure I was out so it’s not too bad. I was going to test in the morning if it didn’t start so probably fortunate it happened tonight.

tashadae27 · 16/10/2022 08:16

Ah sorry @vitahelp even though you kinda knew she would be showing up it's still disheartening. Throw all your positivity into this cycle, manifest what you want and I'm sure it'll happen for you!
I'm convinced me eating so many nuts and seeds helped me this cycle (unintentionally) as seed cycling is a thing that I didn't know about until a week or so ago!
You got this, I'm throwing all positive vibes to you and @Geemmm and hope this is the cycle for you both.
Nausea woke me at 3am and I was so extremely exhausted yesterday so I tried to ignore it and go back to sleep but it got me up and then I kept getting cramp in my foot, finally got back to sleep around 4 I think and then woke at 8.
Hope you both have a lovely Sunday 😊

vitahelp · 17/10/2022 16:16

Hi ladies, I hope you both had a nice weekend! @tashadae27 How are you feeling? I hope your coping ok with the symptoms. I got the worst cramps in my feet and calves when I was pregnant, it was more later on in the pregnancy for me though. It would wake me in the night and was really sore. It's all worth it though 😊

tashadae27 · 17/10/2022 19:52

Hey, hope you had a lovely weekend too @vitahelp
I'm feeling so extremely exhausted beyond belief wow this is new to me! I've been having cramp! In my toes, arch of foot and mid upper back area also twitches! Assuming it's all hormone related! I called EPU today they're gonna scan me on 27th Oct. I'll take any 'symptoms' as long as everything is OK 😊
How are you doing? And how are you @Geemmm ? 😊

tashadae27 · 20/10/2022 10:08

Hi ladies, how are you both doing? 😊
