Hello all,
Just wanting some opinions/advice on some potential symptoms I’m having!
Currently 10dpo and period is due in 4 days. I tested negative this morning and of the morning of 8dpo.

I’ve had a range of creamy and creamy/watery discharge in my DPO days. However, I had spotting on 9dpo, this spotting is what I hope to implantation bleeding- it was browny pink mixed with cream discharge, I had a few cramps in the day but the night before the spotting, I had sharp twinges. I literally went to toilet and it was there in my pants (white pants so very easy to tell) and nothing else happened since- not even when wiping.

My breasts have been sore (continuously got sorer as the days have gone on) since about 8dpo. I’m very gassy and have had a bit of an upset stomach and today (10dpo) I’ve had lots of watery but creamy discharge yesterday and today, but no more spotting.

This is our 3rd month trying and first month we’ve managed to get a positive on my ovulation tests (CD14)- so I know I definitely ovulated and we DTD every other day from CD9 before ovulation and on the day itself (CD15). I’m 28 and have been off contraception for about a year. Fingers crossed this is the month- we get married in 6 days so would be amazing news for me and my future husband.

thanks for taking the time to reply! And baby dust to you all ✨👶

@MissEmily5 ahh I really hope you are, what a perfect wedding gift to yourselves 🥰 It sounds very promising with the symptoms…maybe get a first response test?

Have you taken an early detection pregnancy test?

MissEmily5 · 26/10/2023 18:05

@JulyT Thank you for your reply- I don’t want to get my hopes up too much. I want to be hopeful but not too much to avoid disappointment. I think it’s because it would all be perfect timing! Fingers crossed though- I think I might need to buy one as I’ve only been using cheap ones. 🥰

@slowsundays yes, although they’re only cheap ones from Amazon. Called Aydmed which apparently are ultra early detection. Thank you for your reply!

Update- 12dpo today. Tested negative this morning and I also did a pregnancy test last night (11dpo) when I got in from work. That was negative too.

As I posted before, I had the start of potential implantation bleeding on 9dpo (not lots at all but not had anything like it since), nothing on 10dpo.

11dpo woke up some very light spotting, put a panty liner on just a little bit more spotting with creamy discharge. That night (so last night) I was very gassy, felt like I needed to go to toilet but couldn’t. Just some very pale pink/brown when wiping. Thing to mention is I’ve been dizzy for the past couple of days, but yesterday I was really dizzy and I had ate and drank throughout the day.

Today (12dpo) it’s only early but I feel sick, but that is common. My tummy seems to be feeling swirly if that makes sense but not crampy. But it’s only 9:54.

Not feeling hopeful- especially with the negative pregnancy tests so expecting AF any time now.

I don’t any to get your hopes up but they all sound like early pregnancy symptoms 🤷🏻‍♀️ x

Likely a negative cycle but you never know.

I think day to day we experience a series of motions that we typically don't pay attention to, and when we're TTC we attribute them to apotential conception.

MissEmily5 · 28/10/2023 11:32

@JulyT thanks for your reply and kindness again, I guess only time will tell! Just two more days to go 😅x

@Outliers thank you for replying- I think so too. I was doing so well not symptom spotting up until 9dpo and I started spotting- far too early for me normally to have anything like that. TTC definitely makes us go a bit mad overthinking everything.

@MissEmily5 i have everything crossed for you 🤞🏼🍀🤞🏼

MissEmily5 · 06/11/2023 21:06

Last update- I wasn’t pregnant unfortunately, I started the day before my expected period. Obviously, very upset but at least I could enjoy some fizz at the wedding! Silver linings 😂

hopefully this month, will be the one!
thanks again everyone who took the time to reply, it was really appreciated!

@MissEmily5 ahh hunny I’m sorry. I hope you still managed to have an amazing wedding day 😊
What CD are you?

MissEmily5 · 07/11/2023 14:04

@JulyT we really did thank you! 🥰

I’m currently CD10 so in the ovulation bracket I believe! Last month I tested positive on OPKs on CD14.
How about you? ☺️

@MissEmily5 ahh that’s good…need to change your user name to MrsEmily now haha. congratulations 🥳
mom CD13, my cycles are 32 days long & I ov on CD19 usually. My other half has decided he doesn’t want to start trying until next month now 🙄 but I’m secretly hoping we will fall this month anyway haha

MissEmily5 · 07/11/2023 16:02

@JulyT haha, very true! 🥰
Fingers crossed for you! My husband was a bit spooked at first, even though we both agreed on trying but I think it’s just the idea of it, it’s just a life changing thing, isn’t it? 🙈
I’m sure he’ll get over the nerves soon, which I’m sure he will!

Hoping you and me get caught very quickly, the sooner I can stop obsessing over trying to get pregnant the better (although, I’m sure I’ll obsess over something else quick enough!😂)
