Hello :)
I know sometimes it can be easier to just ‘wait’ but as we all know (otherwise we wouldn’t be here) that there is something comforting about hearing other people‘s personal experiences and providing hope during times that might be difficult. Essentially this post is to provide me with some hope that this month could be it! Just to get me over the next few days, but also to educate me on other peoples symptoms.
My partner and I have been trying now for about 8 months and have had 1 x miscarriage and a chemical. Over the months it has become a real toll on our mental health, especially that of my husbands so we have taken ‘baby making‘ off the table for awhile until he feels better. I am still being super mindful of my ovulation times though, and if we naturally manage to be intimate around that time, then yay!
This month we managed to be intimate twice the day of ovulation, and then about 5 days prior to ovulation so have been sort of ‘symptom’ spotting.
I am mostly curious around cramping and discharge during the 2 x week wait and as they move closer to their missed period.
Cramping:
- I had pretty intense cramping for about 2 days around 7DPO which seemed too early for a period cramp? (Or is it not too early?
Discharge:
This month I’ve had more discharge than usual.
The first photo was at 7DPO
The second was tonight at 11DPO
I’ve tested this morning at 11DPO and was a clear negative. I am due for my period in 2 more days.
Has anyone had similar symptoms on a similar timeline?
Has anyone tested negative on 11DPO and then later received a positive?
My cycle is usually around 26 days long.
My first pregnancy that ended in miscarriage, I tested at DPO14 and that was my first positive.
Please be kind :)
