6DPO buddies please ?

[BlippyMoose26]

Okay so today im 6DPO.... got some on and off low cramping, on and off headaches feeling constantly tired and just no energy, some thick white CM,my cervix is soft and higher up and just a general mleh feeling. Ive notice too the past 2 days my lower stomach is bloated a bit gassy and this sounds weird but when i bend or anything it feels like my tummys in the way so to speak. Know its WAY to early to test and trying so hard not to symptom spot yet just hoping this is my month. Anyone else in the same boat ?

Don't get disheartened your not out yet.... Some people implant between 6-12 I've read so your still in the game for now x

I swear our bodies are so cruel making us think our bodies feel differently! My last 2 cycles have been 25 rather than the usual 28/29 i am on cycle day 25 today so maybe my cycles have gone a little longer again 😭

@Swiftie12 I'm sorry to hear you aren't feeling good still and about the BFN. I've ended up being unwell over a few 2 week waits since I started TTC and it is so frustrating to realise the illness you're feeling might not be pregnancy related.

@Rockyslife sorry about your BFN. When is AF due?

My flow will either be due today if it is a 25 day cycle or if its my normal cycle of 29 days it will be due in sunday 🙃

@Rockyslife Sorry I've just seen you mentioned above about your cycle lengths varying. Mine also tend to vary between 25-28 days which makes the waiting harder as you're never sure when AF will actually show up. I've ended up getting my hopes up on the longer cycles thinking AF wasn't coming.

Im not sure why the last 2 have suddenly changed after years of 29 days every month.. its so rubbish isnt it I just feel like this wont ever happen for me I am so desperate to have my very first positive test, sick of flows coming and trying to hard to relax and have as much sexy time, cant do much more 😂😬

@Rockyslife I'm sorry you're feeling down about it. It is so hard isn't it and takes over your life. And it's annoying your cycles have changed after so long of consistency. I've been trying for 10 months now, but I do already have a DD age 4. The trouble is I worry I'm wishing her childhood away while I wait to get pregnant again.

Have you been to the doctors yet for any checks?

I wonder if we're getting I'll because we're over thinking stressing and just general windings ourselves up xx

Aw I bet its so lovely having a daughter that age, I know what you mean but it really does take over your life without even wanting it too.. its as if our bodies make us that way its cruel really.. yes I have had a hycosy procedure as I have a pelvic infection when I was a teenager and my tubes were all clear, hormone blood tests etc all normal.. not sure what more tests i can have, my hubby's sperm count is satisfactory so not great, the shape of them were slighty abnormal. Hes been taking wellmans and has cut out alcohol which hopefully will be helping so I guess thats on my mind. Have you had any checks?

@BlippyMoose26 I do wonder that. I also sometimes think I convince myself I'm feeling rough or off because I want to feel something and get my hopes up. The truth is today I feel totally normal though, despite looking for symptoms. Pretty sure this isn't my month :(

@vitahelp i have had loads of symptoms to be honest! Cramping from 6DPO, sore boobs from 7DPO, nausea from 8DPO. I’ve also had a slight cold but might be unrelated. Nausea is the most obvious symptom today and my cough is making me want to throw up!

@vitahelp

These are my tests! 1 and 2 were done yesterday afternoon/ evening. Test 3 was this morning.

I'm cautiously hopeful. Definitely scared from the MC, it's so hard to not get too excited.

Help if I attached 🤦🏼‍♀️

@Needtobuildabridge oh how fab!! Tentative congratulations 💕✨

Same here today is 9DPO and a negative test this morning any not so many symptoms today but mine seen to be worse in the evenings I think it's down to me working in the day and I guess I'm not thinking or looking for anything like I do at night when I finish work. Going to continue testing daily til either a BFP or AF now as I got 25 tests ready and waiting haha I'm going to become a poas nutter haha. I'm due AF Monday so still early days another 5 days to go so we will see x

Oh wow deffo getting darker now !!! Fingers crossed it's a sticky bean Hun so happy for you x

@Needtobuildabridge That looks like great line progression! I understand you wanting to be cautious, I really hope things are different this time. Will you keep testing each day? When I was pregnant with my daughter I tested each day for about 2 weeks after my first BFP then decided to stop at that stage as I felt confident by then.

@BlippyMoose26 Sorry about your bfp, but like you say its really early days so you're definitely not out yet. I think implantation is 9dpo on average (between 6-12dpo), and then it would take around 2 days to be detectable by a test - so that makes it 11dpo as an average for early testing.

Yep not completely loosing hope just yet but going by symptoms I thought it may have been in the last 48 hours but maybe not just yet perhaps...

Still no many symptoms today but then I'm just in from work and nights seem worse .. few on and off twinges here and there but nothing major so keeping fingers crossed

How are you feeling today x

There’s a website called countdown to pregnancy which really puts early testing into perspective- 9dpo there is only about 47% chance of getting a BFP

It’s a great tool if you feel like you’re worried about your chances

Been having a look at the premom app today.. I'll check that one out too ... I just don't want to turn into one of these crazy people 🤣 it's surprising how much this whole process takes over even though you try not to let it x

@vitahelp last time my tests never really got very strong, and my CB digital didn't go above '1-2 weeks'. My bloods came back at 22

I'm currently using 10 MIU/ml tests. I want to move onto 25s and then get a 3+ on a CB digital. I think I'd stop testing then as I'd be happy it was progressing properly.

Sorry if that's complicated!

Wishing you all the luck Hun xx

How is everyone.. feeling a little deflated this evening from my BFN this morning so feel like a bit of a rant as such.... knowing full well it's early days and I'm not out this month yet so I shouldn't panic just yet but obviously I am haha!! Decided tonight due to having only a few little cramp/twinges on and off bit bloated and gassy/bubbly and hardly any symptoms today and of course my BFN this morn... I'd nip out for a drink... Had 1 Malibu (which trust me living in Spain is absolutely NOTHING to my usual evenings out) and struggled to drink it. Back home now and it's 2am so I'm officially 10DPO and just had to rush to the toilet as a huge wave of nausea just came over me .. wasn't actually sick but dry heaved a few times before it went away... Now I'm not sure if it was the 1 drink I had or the nausea back as I had it most the day 8DPO none yest/today though lol. Uff this is mad!! Have noticed as the days gone on too my boobs have become heavier and definately sore which I don't usually have at all before AF ..... Kinda gives me a little more hope again so let's see what the rest of the day brings I guess.... Mehhhhhh now to attempt to sleep which has been random the past few nights I keep waking early hours .. random dreams of being pregnant etc ... So let's see what time I wake up today hahahaha sorry ladies for the long essay 😑😂

@Needtobuildabridge That makes sense, when do you plan to move onto the 25MIU/ml tests? I hope all is ok today!

Morning @BlippyMoose26 I'm sorry you aren't feeling great today, I'm right there with you. Oh I love Malibu, so I would also be very surprised if I struggled to drink one! That's crazy that you got such strong nausea, I really hope it is a good sign! Let us know how you feel when you get up this morning.
My sleep has been bad recently too, it stems from obsessing over taking my temp each morning. I get up at 6am so intend to take it then, but find myself waking up from 4am checking if it is time to do it yet. No doubt this interferes with the temperature making it void anyway..
Anyway my temp has dropped slightly the past 2 days (currently 10/11dpo) and AF due Sunday. It is very likely I am not pregnant, my temp would surely be rising if I was. I also don't really feel much, I felt a bit crampy last night but it started after a spin class so I think it was just that.

Morning Hun just up and not too bad at the moment .... Off to work for couple hours so I guess that'll keep me busy for a while haha ... Think I had a bit of a wobble last night but feeling a bit calmer today haha had a few more cramps during night but I didn't sleep well as expected so that's prob why .... Another day another dollar ahha off we goooo.....
