1dpo - it's going to be a long two weeks if anyone wants to symptom spot with me

[MillieKitty]

Heyyy I am back in the two-week wait if anyone is in the same boat and wants company, I ovulated 29th sept I believe! Chemical pregnancy two cycles ago so wishing this cycle is the one 🤞🏼

Yes I think I might be jumping the gun!! I think I'm 7-8 DPO! so probably too early even if there was a slight chance I could be!

I tested this morning thinking there could be some chance of a faint line since yesterday I honestly had soooo much cramping and back pains! But nothing 🥹

Tested this morning -BFN :( I’m only 8 DPO so know it might still be early especially as previously I got my BFP on 8 DPO but late in the PM. I dont really have any symptoms though so have a feeling this might not be my month. I’ll be testing again this PM.

Hi everyone. I’m now 8dpo. Have been reading along with you all the last few days and spotting similar symptoms but telling myself it’s far to early for them to be pregnancy related! Also had cramping at 4/5dpo and twinges but these have gone and now no symptoms at all.

I was trying really hard not to test until 10dpo on Saturday but I caved and got a BFN this morning. Thankyou all for the pep talk on this being way too early this morning. It was much needed!!

@emevol i am with you! I am 7dpo and half of me wants to think I'm out but the other half is holding out hope.

Don't worry just yet, it is still early and things can change. 🤞🏻✨

It's hard to know what to think isn't it. I don't want to get my hopes up in case it's not happening for me this month. I don't really understand how my body can go from full on cramping etc etc yesterday to normal today 😂😂

I just looked back at my 8 DPO tests from my chemical and the AM tests do actually have a vvvvf line so now I’m thinking my BFNs this morning mean the I’m out. Argh wish I wasn’t so obsessive and just waited like a normal person 😂

@HJA87 keeping everything crossed for us all!!! Not out until AF shows! Xxx

I am so glad to see that I am not the only one testing that early.

Hmm, I have started spotting. I usually spot from around 8dpo but I am hoping it's implantation spotting as i did have this with my one successful pregnancy from 9 to 11dpo.

Does anybody know how long it usually takes from suspected implantation, to a positive test? Is it days??

@emevol my understanding is it can take up to 48 hours for hcg to build after implantation

@ttcfirstbaby90 thank you, fingers crossed! Still feeling very slightly crampy today but yesterday was a diferent level!!

@emevol as I understand it, the HCG starts building up immediately and can be detected in your blood immediately but it takes about 2 days to filter into your urine. When I had my chemical, my line on a test was still pretty strong even though I had a blood draw on the same day which showed HCG to be about 17 (which is super low). This was because the pregnancy test shows the levels from. 2 days prior (when it must have been a lot higher).

@HJA87 thank you for explaining! I may be clinging onto nothing here but praying the funny feelings I was having yesterday can't have just been for no reason! Negative this morning but I guess maybe too soon..

Who knows! Xx

@emevol it’s very possible that it’s too soon as only a small minority of people get a positive on 8 DPO. The reason I’m so down about my BFN today is that I’ve been pregnant before and did get my positive on 8 DPO so I feel like it’s the norm for me. Having said that, every pregnancy is different so I’m also trying to stay positive and hope I just implanted later this time x

Update....

9DPO....

Did a test this PM as I'm going out tonight....

I think this is my BFP

I've had several miscarriages so not overly excited but it's a start ❤️

Congratulations @blueberry23 ! Stay positive although I know it's hard ❤️

Wow @blueberry23 that's amazing! Congratulations! Keep positive! Xx

@blueberry23 wow, congratulations that's a good line for 9dpo.

I also tested this pm but stil negative. Pretty sure I am out as the one symptom I did have (heartrate at rest over 80) is disappearing now.

I've just tested this evening, BFN too. 7/8 DPO today I believe arghhhh I hate this cruel wait 🥹

@blueberry23 congratulations.

I’m 8dpo, trying to hold out and not test unless AF is late. Last month it was 1 day late, got my hopes up and it came and slapped me on the face.

I know it's so hard everyone.

Thing is though I'm relieved it's positive I'm just so scared I'll start bleeding again but everything crossed.

I hope we have some more BFPs.

@emevol my test was completely negative yesterday at 8dpo!

There is still a chance xxx

@blueberry23 I've got absolutely everything crossed for you!

Still feeling off tonight, boobs are dull aching down the sides but nipples sore!

Still stark negative. I could cry 😭

@blueberry23 congratulations, I’m crossing everything for you to have a smooth pregnancy. Enjoy your night out!

Have you tested positive at 9dpo previously?

@blueberry23 congratulations ❤️ Fingers are crossed for you!! Hopefully this will be lucky thread for us all 🤞🏻
Im holding out until af due on Monday, I can’t face seeing a negative test x

congratulations @blueberry23 so chuffed for you! ❤️ Lovely to see another BFP! Gives me hope 🤞🏼

I'm 12dpo today, wish I’d bought some tests now!! En route to some friends up north for a visit so going to resist the urge to Amazon some their house and see if AF comes. I’ve felt a bit full below with a dull ache but can’t figure out if it’s an IBS flare up, trying to not stress/obsess which usually causes the ibs 😂😂😂
