Anyone around 11dpo?

Hello, I'm about 11-12dpo/CD24 as I seem to have ovulated early this month!

Had a MC in November after a year of trying, now been ttc again the past 2 cycles. I'm having lots of symptoms but had similar last month and it was just af. Anyone around the same DPO and testing soon/want to symptom spot together? Grin

Would be good to have someone to talk to instead of driving myself crazy in my own head!

These have been my symptoms so far..
4dpo - hot flashes
5dpo - really tired, sensitive boobs (my nipples are sore to touch but I just feel more aware of my boobs in general if that makes sense 😂 they seem a bit bigger/heavier and seem to be moving more and getting in the way more than usual. also are very blue and veiny!)
6dpo - cramps, tender boobs
8dpo - cramps, heartburn, super hungry, tender boobs
9dpo - emotional, tender boobs, cramps, really bad heartburn
10dpo - cramps, upset stomach, nausea, tender boobs, sore lower back
11dpo - cramps, hot flashes

The past week or so I have been absolutely exhausted, keep having to nap throughout the day. I’ve also been getting weird pains in my legs, almost like growing pains and have had lots of watery CM the past 2-3 days. I keep running to check if it’s af as it feels like i’m gushing (tmi sorry!)

I am about 11DPO I believe possibly 12 but not sure just going based of my app. I was sure I had a faint positive yesterday but did another test this evening (couldn’t wait till the morning silly me) and it’s negative! My period is due today I have a short cycle usually and I’m never late but so far nothing.
Attached picture of my faint positive on a cheapie yesterday. Threw out my negative one from earlier as I was sad and upset and didn’t want to spend time staring at it too much and develop line eyes lol!
I usually always have PMS symptoms too like sore boobs bad cramps and spots everywhere and this month I’ve had none. On Tuesday I spotted pink just when I wiped there was pinky mucus and that was it so I thought AF was coming early as I usually spot a few days before. Trying to hold out until the weekend to test again but it’s so hard!! Have you tested at all? Baby dust xxx

Also just came to say if your username is based off Taylor swift we should be friends! Haha

@Happydappy12 hello! That's rubbish you had a negative today, that test definitely looks positive to me - was it the same type of test you used? Todays negative have just been a dodgy one hopefully 🤞

The pink spotting sounds promising for implantation as well, I'm going to try hold off till the weekend to test as well so let's try keep strong together lol! I've had 2 negatives, one just a cheap wee strip from amazon today and did a FRER a couple of days ago but I'm trying to hold off on using the second one, might have to ask DH to put it up high where I can't reach it - I'm so bad for testing!

How long have you been trying? Is this your first? xxxx

Also yes, it's because of Taylor Swift!! I love her so much 😂

Happydappy12 · 03/02/2023 00:50

@youreonyourownkid no they were two different brands both cheapies from different shops so maybe your right!

it is so hard not too! I would deffo say wait till the weekend to miss any false negatives! But I can’t take my own advice lol! This would be my second but my first is 7.5 years old so quite the gap! Really don’t want any more years between them so really hoping for a little sticky bean this year!! We haven’t been actively trying for very long so I know I need to be patient it just happened so quickly with my first I thought it would be the same this time! How about you? Is this your first??

Also, I love her too!! Major Stan right here lol!

anon1411 · 03/02/2023 06:51

I hope you don't mind me jumping in... I'm about 9DPO so a few days behind. But up until the last few days I've not had any symptoms which I never know if it's a good thing or bad thing.

But the last few days I've had a lot of cramps, around my hip area, stomach and my back has started to just ache and feel uncomfortable. Also there have been a few days where I have ran to the toilet thinking it was AF showing up early and it's just been a lot of CM. I do feel very emotional and have like no patience whatsoever at the moment. Oh and I could just sleep and sleep and sleep 😴

Last cycle I felt like I had every symptom going and it was just AF, so hopefully not having many symptoms could mean the opposite for this cycle🤞🤞

@Happydappy12 Oh yea definitely a possibility then, hopefully the negative was just a bad batch of tests! I know, I know I need to wait because when I had my first I didn’t get a positive till the day my period was due and then with the MC I didn’t test positive until the day after my period, so I have no idea why I still hold out hope in the 2 weeks run up to AF 😂 That’s similar to me, our first is 5 and I was hoping for a 5 year gap so really hoping it happens soon! We weren’t even trying with our first, it was a little surprise lol but I was the same, thought it would happen really quickly this time. How wrong I was!

I’m so happy to find another Swiftie lol no one I know really likes her and then I’m super obsessed!! We should defo be friends!! I hope she comes to the UK for a tour soon, I’ve never even seen her live xx

@anon1411 Hello, yes please join!! The more the merrier 💕

Yes I’ve had similar, had some cramp type pains that’s been like normal cramps during my period but also a proper ache as if I’ve been doing sit ups (I haven’t 😂)! I’m having the same too with lots of CM and thinking AF is here and just having a big wet patch lol. Never experienced that before as often as I am now. Last cycle I was convinced I was pregnant and then woke up one morning to AF and spent the rest of the day in bed in tears! I never thought TTC would be like this.

Have you been trying for long? Fingers crossed these are all good signs for you, they do sound promising! Will you test soon or are you going to try and hold off another few days? I always say I’ll wait then do like 5 a day anyway!!

@youreonyourownkid I know it deffo happens a lot quicker when you are not focusing completely on it but it’s so hard once you’re actively trying to think of anything but that. I’ve woken up with pretty strong cramps so I think I’m out this month! Feels like AF is on her way no doubt! I will update if anything changes. Roll on mid Feb!
I hope your test turns out positive this weekend!! Sending all my baby dust to you let me know how it goes!

Chip131 · 03/02/2023 20:45

Hiya! Im about 11 or 12 days po. Driving myself crazy😂 negative tests every say so far...
I had browny discharge about 4 ago- just a little when I wiped and this lasted for about 2 days. Have had a bit of nausea, which actually woke me up this morning but i did have a massive meal the night before 😂
Ive had the odd bit of cramping and twinges, especially early on. Boobs feel pretty normal. Noticed i had a wet patch in my pants today which is not normal for me!

Im due my period arouns tomorrow but my cycle can be 24-28days (today is day 24)

Am I out due to the negative tests at this point or is there still a chance?! Xxx

@Chip131 Hello!! You seem the same as me, almost identical cycles 😂 Im due on Sunday, but I ovulated early this month according to OPKs, usually O is around day 13/14 but this month it seemed to be day 10/11 of my cycle and Im not CD25 I think (usually 28/29 day cycles). I had some brown discharge too but just very wet cm now like you say!

I have only had negatives up to this point too but you’re not out till AF arrives (that’s what I’m telling myself anyway lol)! My last 2 pregnancies I didn’t get a positive until the day of my period and the day after it was due so not sure why I’ve been testing so early this time again but I can’t control myself!

Fingers crossed your period doesn’t arrive tomorrow 🤞🤞 and lots of baby dust your way xxx

@youreonyourownkid
Thank you 🥰

Oh wow that does sound similar... I've been out and about shopping and been so scared AF has come, but then I check and just CM. I've had a lot of cramping today, my back at the bottom especially and then when I first woke up I had quite a few sharp pains in my pelvic area. Just in general felt quite heavy and achy in the stomach. Also I went to the toilet around lunch time and when I wiped there was like very light light brown there.

I've already got a little boy who's 4 and cant remember having any symptoms in the lead up to BFP with him. I came off the pill in November so only been ttc since then. Fingers crossed for both of us 🤞🙂

AF is due tomorrow for me but I'm so upset that I'm out, I just went to the toilet and when I wiped there were some red/brown spots mixed with CM ☹️ I don't usually spot but think this must be the start of AF for me.

Still got really sensitive heavy boobs and been having quite bad cramps just now as well. So sad Sad

Hi ladies, I hope you don't mind me joining the chat! 😊 we're ttc baby #2 and I'm 11dpo today. I've had faint positives for a couple of days (started testing stupidly early) I had 2 miscarriages in a row at the end of last year so I'm really apprehensive. What doesn't help is that I got my first bfp at 8dpo with my 2 year old so it's making me think my lines should be darker by now!!

How are you all getting on?

BoyMamaChloe · 05/02/2023 07:00

These are my cheapy tests from yesterday morning, I've had a darker test since but no photo of it lol

Anyone around 11dpo?
Chip131 · 05/02/2023 08:11

Just did a frer,cd 26. Negative😭 that means im out this month im guessing as they are meant to be the best. I was convinced! Xxx

BoyMamaChloe · 05/02/2023 09:09

I'm cd26 too bit still only 11dpo which is technically really early for bfp! You're not out until AF arrives, just remember that!x

Chip131 · 05/02/2023 09:11

Thank you- it seems my cycle has decided to be longer this month! The last two months ive had af at 24 days and now day 26. The body is cruel 😂xxx

BoyMamaChloe · 05/02/2023 09:13

I think it's just a self preservation thing too isn't it, easier to just convince yourself it's not going to happen and secretly hope your body will surprise you! 🤣 it's just torture x

Chip131 · 05/02/2023 09:25

It is honestly torture!! I can't cope with the not knowing xxx

BoyMamaChloe · 05/02/2023 11:52

Just a little update - I took an frer after about a 1.5 hour hold and got this! I'm starting to believe this is really happening now, just really need this little one to stick around! ❤️ AF is due in 2-3 days x

Anyone around 11dpo?
Chip131 · 05/02/2023 18:25

Ooh amazimg! Keeping everything crossed for you. Whats a 1.5 hour hold? Sorry for the stupid question xxx

BoyMamaChloe · 05/02/2023 18:36

Lol that's ok! It's just how long you hold a wee for before testing! Usually takes much longer for it to be concentrated enough for a test. Clearblue test is still faint though so I'm hoping for a stronger frer tomorrow xx
