3dpo

[spacewitch10]

Thought I would start a thread for anyone who is 3dpo today as we'd all be testing around the same time 🤞🏼... and I'm sure we are all in the same tww hell hole and symptom spotting?!

Anyone experiencing anything out of the ordinary?

Ive had low level cramping since ovulation (I get this some cycles anyway) but in my back too this time and tops of my legs (don't normally get that) boobs keep getting shooting pains every now and then but nothing consistent (normally they are just tender) and today I've got very prominent pinching pains in my left ovary (or around that area) that I don't normally get 3dpo. I've had that alllllll day.

Please come and be insane with me and get us through this never ending fortnight! Xx

I've had my worst acne breakout in ages, is that a symptom?! Or just a symptom of not drinking enough water and having too much junk food 😂

It's going to be a loooong week....

@Sunflower8092 I think keeping busy is the key isn't it, I mean let's face it it's always in the back of our minds but keeping busy makes it a bit easier! So hopefully you have lots of lovely things planned for your holiday!

@greentree16 😂😂 could be both! Buuuuut, I have heard of some women ttc having breakouts before their bfp! Do you normally get it before af?

I feel a little crampy today but have been busy this morning and not noticed as much as yesterday, I have been SO hungry though and very very thirsty, to the point I feel like I've got a headache brewing and that cystitis kind of feeling. Maybe I've not drunk enough! .... I'm completely NOT thinking that with my son water infections were relentless in the early part and the thirst the whole pregnancy 👀 and reminding myself implantation hasn't happened yet so completely unrelated 😂

How's everyone else doing today?

@greentree16 I had a few breakouts in my first pregnancy after my BFP, when I wouldn't normally get spots!

I've been slightly nauseous all morning - keep telling myself it's not a pregnancy symptom as it's far too early for implantation!

I guess we will all just have to wait and see! What day does everyone plan on testing?

@Sunflower8092 @greentree16 @LW678 @Natty2 @mushroomushroom
How are you all feeling ladies? In general

Symptoms appear to have subsided apart from being bloated, which could be related to anything! How are you?

@LW678 same really! Not even really that bloated! Feel normal just a bit tired! I want to fast forward to next week 😂

It makes me anxious that I’m not feeling anything when really our egg wouldn’t have even implanted yet so surely we wouldn’t feel anything? I read forums where ladies say they feel something instantly before the egg even implants but then I read others saying they had 0 symptoms other than a missed period!

Oh lovely to be in this hellish wait with you all, I think I am 1dpo, I'm not tracking anything apart from the app and physical symptoms of ovulating because I have been driving myself actually crazy for the last 6 months ttc baby2. Baby 1 was born from rum and sex certainly no counting or awareness, this planning and trying is just torturous isn't it big hugs ladies xxx

@Alwaystired2023 I conceived baby #1 on numerous amounts of gin and tonic. Ended in a chemical but was thrilled to be pregnant. Now I’m actually trying (no alcohol involved this time!) I am desperate for it to happen. Sending lots of baby dust to all ladies on this thread x

I haven't had anything out of the ordinary yet, although still early days!!
Trying so hard not to think about it though after over a year and a half of constant disappointment just feel like the BFP will never happen!
Hope you're all keeping sane!

I'm feeling ok, no symptoms out of the ordinary. Woke up feeling a bit bloated, but as you say it can be anything! Probably the McDonald's I had for lunch 🤣

I don’t know about anyone else but people must think I belong in a mental hospital with the amount I’m touching my boobs to see if they’ve started hurting 😅

@LW678 it's so frustrating isn't it! I think the same, that we'd have some kind of feeling surely?! Because something is (hopefully) happening?! Same as when we get a cold, we can feel it brewing before it breaks out 😂
And like you and @Alwaystired2023 my first was the product of careless drunk sex too!

I've got cramping/pinching again tonight in the left side and my boobs do actually hurt/ache. But also groping myself non stop 😂

@Sunflower8092 hope you enjoyed your McDonald's 😂

And @Natty2 not at all sane here 😂🙃 really keeping everything crossed for you this month that you get your bfp, that we all do 🥰

Could I join on this thread please?

I'm currently 3dpo I’ve said this month I’m going to try and not symptom spot but know I will I can’t help it!

TTC #1 on month 3 of trying, I naively thought this whole process might be easy little did I know

Hi ladies! I hope it’s okay to join! I’m 6dpo today.

I’m 40, and ttc no.2. I don’t have high hopes, sadly. Last time I conceived DD on the fifth consecutive cycle of trying. Cycles 1-3 I got pregnant but they ended in losses. Cycle 4 I didn’t conceive but I swear that was due to a burst ovarian cyst.

DD is 15 months. I was 38 when she was conceived and 39 when she was born.

We’re now on cycle 3 of ttc no.2 and I’m convinced it’s a bfn again! I always feel implantation (like period cramps), followed by weird wetness (sorry tmi) and so far nothing at all, apart from tiredness and a shitty mood, which is prob progesterone. I know three months is nothing in the grand scheme of things, but it’s so different for me compared to last time. 🤔

Sorry to be a downer! Just feeling proper sorry for myself today! 😂

I’m 6dpo today too. Fingers crossed you get your BFP in the next week or so!

@deliwoman1 il so sorry to hear of your struggles, here’s hoping for a bfp super soon! This is our 3rd month trying and I just don’t know what to expect. It doesn’t help my mum said oh it took me 3 years to conceive and then gave me no further information on it!!

@LW678 hoping to hear of your bfp soon too! How are you feeling?

Symptom free so not getting my hopes up! Are you feeling anything yet?

Welcome @Roseberry22 and @deliwoman1

I'm just trying to keep thinking short term, 7dpo today, tomorrows 8dpo, could potentially start testing, then 9dpo, could still be too early etc, just a day at a time!

Had a lot of cramping yesterday and my boobs seemed to grow bigger with on and off pains near my arm pits all day.
Today they are tender and cramps are still quite obvious. But could just be af symptoms!

And that's what this group is for @deliwoman1 to share our worries about it. We all want it badly don't we so it's natural to feel so intense about it and upset when it doesn't go how we thought

When will you all start testing? I have internet cheapie early detection ones come today and I know I'll do one as soon as they arrive (🤦🏻‍♀️) but know it will show nothing!

Also, might be worth a mention (but also could be clinically insane now) the cramps and boob tenderness doesn't scream anything out of the ordinary for me, the size maybe, but cramps and tender boobs I do get some months from ovulation to af, but I have noticed I'm sneezing ALOT! Don't feel unwell, but since about 3/4dpo I have noticed sneezing daily which is very out of the ordinary for me. Just thought I'd mention it incase anyone else is experiencing that too or someone who has that led to bfp stumbles across this 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

I am feeling nauseous and TMI but I also have diarrhoea. Had a sickness bug 3 weeks ago so I’d like to eliminate that it could be that!

@LW678 ooo that sounds (horrible for you) but like it could be a symptom?! I've heard of people getting an upset tummy before bfp 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 since I've been up and about I've felt gaggy, not so much nauseous like your experiencing, just that gagging feeling in the back of my throat and a nasty taste in my mouth. Fingers crossed for us!

@LW678 hope you’re feeling better soon!

I don’t really feel any different to any other month on the TWW I know I’m only 4dpo and I’m not sure if I’d feel something this early if pregnant anyway! Hoping when the time comes I’ll just know 😂

@spacewitch10 hopefully all your symptoms are a good sign!

I'm 7dpo today, I woke up this morning with slightly sore nipples and have had very light cramps this evening. Trying not to get my hopes up as it could just be AF on the way.

I was sooo tempted to test this morning, but I'm going to hold off testing until Wednesday at the earliest I think

Hi all!

Sitting pretty at 7dpo right now :)

I was on these boards back in 2019 when TTC my first. We were successful on the first round of SMEP (which I was glad of because LORD that is exhausting!)

Not so lucky for #2....it'll be two years in November since we 'properly' started trying again it's all so disheartening but I don't know what it is with this time - I feel good about it, so thought I'd sit on these boards again to try and get through the dreaded TWW!

Keeping fingers crossed and wishing for baby dust. If we get pregnant this time we would announce at my first big family thanksgiving for about 10 years....I'm half American living in the UK....so a bit extra special!
