5dpo and symptom spotting anyone else in the tww? Want to share the wait?
AF due 3rd feb so a long wait here but I’ll likely test sooner 😅

The thing is that basically every ‘symptom’ is in fact identical to a progesterone symptom. Back ache, sore boobs etc… could equally be progesterone!

The main thing to look out for is a pulling sensation from about 6-9dpo. That’s implantation right there. Good luck!

Emmalou0607 · 24/01/2023 14:14

6dpo so only a day ahead of you

Sophie3839 · 24/01/2023 14:19

Oh great! Feel any different? When do you reckon you’ll test?

OP posts:
Sophie3839 · 24/01/2023 14:20

Oh definitely it’s so typical that pms and early preg symptoms are identical 🙃

Did you realise you've posted this in the Contraception topic?

You might like to have it moved to "Conception"

Sophie3839 · 24/01/2023 19:10

Oh no. I’m a bit of a technophobe so I’ll start a new one as no idea how to move it!

OP posts:
Scaevola · 24/01/2023 19:27

I've reported it to MNHQ for you - fingers crossed they'll move it!

Sophie3839 · 24/01/2023 20:54

Fantastic thank you!

@Sophie3839 I’m 6 DPO today, AF due 1st Feb. We have a thread already with similar ladies if you want to join that one? I think it’s called TWW 1 DPO today- who’s with me?

@Jelliez any chance you could describe the ‘pulling’ sensation please? I’m 9PDO and getting kind of period cramps but incredibly mildly. And also a little hip pain. I’m trying to work out if that’s similar to the pulling sensation

Frosty91 · 26/01/2023 08:09

Hi girlie's. I'm on the TWW had my transfer on Tuesday so today is my second day. First day of transfer cramping straight after, the next day very sore boobs and constantly out of breath. As its my first ever IVF I want to test qt 5dpt and then every 3 days after that my official testing is on the 6th of Feb x how is everyone feeling x

AlleycatMarie · 26/01/2023 08:56

I’m 5dpo and af due 2nd feb. I’m terrible at waiting to test and waste money every month testing too early, but I can’t avoid the temptation! Going to try to hold out until Monday, which will be 9dpo, but even that is going to be difficult!

Sophie3839 · 26/01/2023 09:09

How Exciting! Hopefully cramping is a good sign of implantation :)
AF due 3rd feb here so will be testing around the same time but likely a bit earlier as I can never wait 🙈
I thought I had symptoms but they seem to have gone so I may have just been imagining it 🙈😩

OP posts:
Sophie3839 · 26/01/2023 09:10

Oh I’m with you haha I bought a load of tests yesterday and now regret it as I want to test already. Only 7/8 dpo here and AF due 3rd Feb. How are your feeling so far? Any symptoms?

OP posts:
AlleycatMarie · 26/01/2023 09:16

@Sophie3839 I decided not to order any tests to avoid the temptation of testing too early, but I’ve just caved and been an Amazon 🤣
No symptoms yet; I had a sharp twinge in my boob last night, but think it’s probably completely unrelated! How about you? You mention you had some symptoms but they have gone? I know we are still very early for symptom spotting, but I can’t help it!
Do you have children? We are ttc number 1 and have been trying a while. Got a fertility appointment in March, but hoping I don’t need it!

Sophie3839 · 26/01/2023 09:24

Yes I popped out to shop yesterday and thought I’d pick up a test (and bought 5 🙈🤷🏼‍♀️)
this is ttc 2 I have a ds who’s 2
im a terrible symptom spotter and had loads up till today but on reflection many be uti related! I get inflammation in my kidneys and bladder sometimes and that could be causing the back pain and need to pee :( there’s no treatment though other than drinking lots.
boob pain is a nightmare as it can go either way (preg or pms ) - I’ve spent many months poking my boobs so much they were sore then convincing myself it was a symptoms 🤭
really hope this is your month! Fertility stuff is so hard I had a few appointments with a specialist and it was really helpful so if you do need it at least it’s there ❤️

Frosty91 · 26/01/2023 09:57

I have never been obsessive tester. Since its my first IVF TTC for 2 years. I want to test early and enjoy the build up if it is a positive. I pray 🥰 well when I have my periods I never fet symptoms or when I was taking progesterone before transfer. So these sore boobs, back ache, cramping is all knew to me. Sensing baby dust all your ways xx I o ly bought 4 tests as I'm planning to start from day 5 and test every 3 days x

Sophie3839 · 26/01/2023 12:53

Oh wow def a good sign if you don’t usually get symptoms but are having them now :)
I have more bleeding gums again today which I don’t normally get and had during my first pregnancy, think my sense of smell is up too but could be my imagination 😇
baby dust to everyone ❤️ This wait is so longggggggg

OP posts:
Frosty91 · 26/01/2023 18:15

@Sophie3839 oooo sense of smell very good sign. Fingers crossed for you.

Today still sore boobs, out of breath and dirohea now? Anyone experience dirohea aftwr transfer.

Sophie3839 · 26/01/2023 18:27

Haha @Frosty91 it’s prob in my head about the smell thing. I haven’t had that symptom yet but I’ve definitely heard of ppl having an upset tummy around transfer and implantation. Hopefully it’s a good sign! ❤️

Frosty91 · 29/01/2023 23:08

@Sophie3839 how are you? How's it going. How are your symptoms. Sorry I have been on a diff thread. Have you tested yet. Just an update I been testing from 3 days post transfer. Had a very faint line on 3dpt then tested everyday line was getting more visible and today 5dpt tested postive on a digital clear blue. 1- 2 weeks💕 fingers crossed for you. Have been praying for e everyone during this 2ww. Wondering testing postive on a digital at 5dpt on a 6 day embryo is that a sign of high HCG.

I wanted to know how do they calculate how many weeks you are with FET x

Sophie3839 · 30/01/2023 05:06

Woohoo how exciting! How are your feeling now symptoms wise?
got an awful cold here and symptoms seem to have gone now! Not tested yet x

OP posts:
Frosty91 · 30/01/2023 06:51

@Sophie3839 when is your official testing? When will you be testing.

So 1dpt till 4dpt sore boobs, constant out of breath has been my biggest symptom. Bit of dirohea. Mild cramps/twinges.
5dpt constant out of breath. So Hungary at like 5am in the morning the fact I need to get out of bed and go eat something x
6dpt put if breath and Hungary at 5am in morning lol x

Sophie3839 · 30/01/2023 07:32

AF due 3rd feb so will prob test next weds.
yer I feel starving and woke up in the night to eat, back pain, insomnia and crying randomly.
Could go either way and be pms or pregnancy 🤷🏼‍♀️

I'm at 5DPO today and strangely enough experienced some pinkish spotting . I've heard that implantation bleeding this early isn't a thing but equally also that every woman is different. AF due on 25th so I'm not even close. Anyone else in this boat? This is our first cycle TTC
