4 DPO

Is anyone else 4 dpo??

We only managed to dtd once as then we got ill and our toddler was poorly too 😩

So I'm not very hopeful but really want it so bad to be the month. I wanted a much smaller age gap but my toddler is already 20 months. Just praying it happens soon

5dpo over here! I’ll join you :) it only takes one time! We managed twice but my dh was away for work when I got my peak on LH test..I’m just hoping we DTD close enough to ovulation! How you feeling? Any symptom spotting? I’m terrible for it 😆

ttcnumber2x · 11/12/2022 10:18

@Char899 yay thank you for joining me! I'm 5dpo today too. No symptoms here but I had no symptoms the month I finally got pregnant with DS. What about you?

OP posts:
Char899 · 11/12/2022 12:09

No symptoms I don’t think. Felt a little nauseous yesterday but don’t think it was related! When do you plan on testing? I didn’t have any symptoms with my other 2 apart from tiredness!

Happyhappy39soon40 · 11/12/2022 16:36

Hiya 5 dpo today. I am not symptom spotting and will only test if I miss a period.
Good luck to you all

Char899 · 11/12/2022 20:11

@Happyhappy39soon40 good luck to you too! That’s some serious self control right there! I have no doubt I’ll test early I just can’t help myself!

I had a strange bout of nausea come over me this afternoon and I ended up being sick. I’m only 5dpo (I suppose if I ovulated same day as peak I could be 6dpo but unlikely) I can’t imagine the nausea could possibly be pregnancy related but seemed strange nonetheless! Especially as I feel totally fine otherwise! 🤔

anon1411 · 11/12/2022 20:54

I'm not really sure what DPO I am, as I only came off the pill a month ago and my cycles are super irregular and I don't do all the testing or tracking of it... however would love to follow this to see how everyone's symptoms develop etc.

I've been having cramps and twinges, feeling sick but only at night when I get in bed, I CANNOT stop eating , literally just sat and eaten 3/4 of a pack of chicken slices (wtf 🤣) and just my nipples are sore and like prickly sensation..

Golaz · 11/12/2022 21:21

Hello can I join? I’m 4 dpo. We managed to DTD three times which is a record 😂😅.
once day before peak, day of peak and day after peak. I’m trying not to get my hopes up but would love a Christmas bfp 🥹

ttcnumber2x · 12/12/2022 08:57

Thank you everyone for joining us!

I'm ill so can't tell if the uncontrollable gagging is from that or if implantation has happened. That was my worst symptom throughout my whole pregnancy with my #1.

I've been taking so much ibuprofen from feeling ill though I'd be so surprised if it stuck.

I wish I had the energy for TTC 2 like I did TTC 1. I was so strict 😂

How's everyone feeling today?

@Golaz I didn't even realise it was so close to Christmas we'd be testing! I told my family straight away last time and would again this time so would be so amazing to tell them at Christmas 🥺

Hi all can I join? 7 DPO and really hoping for a Christmas BFP. V tender boobs but I know that means nothing really. Not testing too early will be my biggest challenge 🫣

Caterpillar132 · 12/12/2022 09:55

Hi all,

I’m 3dpo today so a little behind but love looking at these threads as they can give hope and convince me to stop symptom spotting 😅 i symptom spotted like mad first time round and on the time i actually got pregnant I had no symptoms at all (other than implantation bleeding) which I dismissed at the time as thought it was AF.

Hope you’re all doing well! X

ttcnumber2x · 12/12/2022 11:34

@Caterpillar132 that's the same as me, the only month I didn't have symptoms I was pregnant so it was a real shock 😂

OP posts:
Char899 · 12/12/2022 11:42

@ttcnumber2x feeling fine today! Actually had a good sleep and not nauseous today either. 6dpo and my urge to poas is starting! 😂 got to make it to Friday without testing. That’s my goal anyway 🙄 how are you feeling?

Caterpillar132 · 12/12/2022 13:41

@ttcnumber2x Haha it’s funny isn’t it!? I’d decided I was out that month so dismissed absolutely everything as didn’t want to get my hopes up. Didn’t even test until AF was late. I’m feeling like I’m crazy and back to square one this time though 😂xx

Happyhappy39soon40 · 12/12/2022 14:18

@Char899 6dpo for me too. Don't poas. Wait till af is due 😀
@Caterpillar132 good on ttc journey. Fingers crossed for you.
@LeeCee welcome. I dismiss any symptoms as af. So I don't think about it.
@anon1411 @Golaz welcome. Good to you both

NarnieJoy · 12/12/2022 15:56

Hello - I am 5 dpo - can I join??

Some helpful stats for the ttc story: I am 25, cycle 4, ovulated on CD 14 and consistently spot from CD28... so if I hold on until my proper period comes I will test on Christmas day... but I will probably cave a few days before if no sign of AF.

How are others doing?? How are you finding the festive TTW? I think it's gone quite quick so far as we are so busy with christmassy things....

Happyhappy39soon40 · 13/12/2022 14:10

@NarnieJoy well come. Good luck to you.
I am 7dpo. AF due 21st
My bday is the 19th 😊
The festive tww is a good distraction.

Happyhappy39soon40 · 13/12/2022 14:10

How's everyone getting on @ttcnumber2x

ttcnumber2x · 13/12/2022 14:20

Hi everyone,

Sorry for lack of updates, we've been struck down with the flu. My toddler is so poorly waiting for the doctors to call me back atm 😭.

I was actually sick yesterday, and feel so sick today. I'm not sure if it's hormones or flu.. but I've never been sick from having flu?!

Being this ill is actually terrifying me on how I'll cope in the first trimester with a toddler too.

How is everyone feeling? When is everyone planning to test?

I've got no tests in the house as otherwise I've always tested early.. I don't want to buy any yet but obviously can't leave it until Christmas Day to buy some 😂. AF is due 21st dec..

Happyhappy39soon40 · 14/12/2022 13:06

@ttcnumber2x sounds like you are having a rough time. I hope your toddler is doing better now. Hope you all feel better soon.

😀 Good thing that you don't have a test in the house.

I will test 2days after a missed period.

Yesterday it dawned on me that I may be pregnant. I had a mini freak out moment. My hubby also had a freak out moment. Lol he admitted to it last night.

I am not really ttc but not preventing atm.
My hubby only just came back to UK 27th of November. He was away for a year. So we have been busy dtd without thought of ttc.
Technically it's our first month ttc (sort of 😂)

Happyhappy39soon40 · 14/12/2022 13:11

Currently 8dpo

AmieMac93 · 14/12/2022 16:24

I'm joining you ladies, currently 7dpo. Super super sore nipples which I only ever had with my last pregnancy (sadly miscarried) so I'm hoping it's a good sign
I'm also super ill with the flu so I'm hoping sore boobs aren't Flu related

Fingers crossed for all of us
Xx

Happyhappy39soon40 · 14/12/2022 18:04

@AmieMac93 welcome. Fingers crossed for you. Hope you get over the flu soon.

Char899 · 14/12/2022 18:19

Welcome everybody! Fingers crossed for some bfps really soon!

im 8dpo today. In the past I’ve got positives from 9dpo so I’m really struggling with the temptation to test tomorrow! Going to do my best not to but I have a FRER upstairs and it keeps looking at me… 😂

Happyhappy39soon40 · 14/12/2022 18:44

@Char899 we are the same dpo. 😀 Step away from the test.
Have you got a symptom that makes you think " i must be a preggo". One that really stands out.

I try not to pay much attention to symptoms. However, there is this one symptom that's making scratch my head 🤔🤔🤔.

Char899 · 14/12/2022 18:50

@Happyhappy39soon40 I have been a little nauseous on and off which is unusual for me but that’s about it! Otherwise I don’t think I’m noticing anything in particular! Just have absolutely no patience or self control 🤣 what’s your symptom?
