Love these threads but all the ones Im reading are old so thought I’d make one
Based on spotting around Ovulation I’m around 5/6dpo but my ovulation tests are positive again . Bloating and a little crampy .
anyone else ? When do you all plan on testing? I hope my first surge I actually ovulated but I’m assuming I did cause I had some spotting but i don’t know lol!!

Hi! I think I’m about 7/8 dpo according to apps but haven’t been tracking and had what seemed more like ovulation discharge before then so may have ovulated earlier 🤷🏻‍♀️! Symptom wise my boobs are pretty sore and I keep getting this really weird twitching/fluttering feeling on my lower right side for days now which I’ve never felt before, no idea if it’s a symptom or I’ve pulled a muscle somewhere 😂 I’m doing my best not to symptom spot too much as my pms symptoms have been really weird the last few months and I don’t want to get my hopes up and it’s just another weird period symptom!

Hey! I’m 8/9dpo at the moment and symptom spotting like crazy!

I have PCOS and have been TTC for over a year now, 4th cycle on letrezole. This is the first month I think we actually caught the peak LH!

’Symptoms’ I’ve had so far:

  • sore boobs early after ovulation but they’ve calmed down now
  • decent cramps yesterday when I normally don’t get cramps much at all
  • headache behind my eyes all day today
  • started getting moody and sad tonight which usually happens day before period (since being on meds)

according to my previous cycles since being on letrezole, my cycles are only about 25/26 days long and I’m day 27 now so just waiting to see what happens!!

I am only 2dpo and 3 weeks 5 days post surgical miscarriage due to MMC where baby’s heart stopped at 9 weeks discovered at 9+3.
I am driving myself insane 😂😭😂 I have had left ovary twinges but assuming that’s in relation to ovulation. We DTD the 2 days prior to ovulation.
hoping to be one of these success stories straight after a miscarriage .
sending you all positive vibes. Going to be a long TWW I think xxx

Ellamaee · 23/09/2024 17:59

No symptom can predict pregnancy. You can have lots of symptoms and not be pregnant and you can have no symptoms at all and still be pregnant. Everyone's symptoms are unique. Only a positive pregnancy test is valid. Good luck to you.

Hey! I think I’m close enough to my TWW to give you a proper update! In my first pregnancy I had 0 symptoms until 6 weeks, but this time it’s been so different and I knew before taking the tests. I’m currently 5w2d

8dpo - some light spotting and cramping - very weird for me, I never spot between cycles.

9-11 dpo - insomnia. I really was waking up every night for about 1-2 hours and could NOT get back to sleep

i also felt a bit weirdly anxious at a few points but thought that could have been pms.

my BBT started going up during the days before my period was due too.

so strange that it was different to last time, and I knew something was going on. Last time I had NO idea!

Ellamaee · 26/09/2024 13:35

Oh congratulations!! I can’t even remember symptom wise my first pregnancy , I just remember having flu like symptoms the day of my positive test ! How are you feeling ?

Ellamaee · 26/09/2024 13:37

Hopeful bump to whoever else is in their 2ww! Currently 9dpo but possibly 8/10 dpo not 100% when I ovulated but guess work from my spotting

I've been reading lots of the old ones, love following along with them.

I'm roughly 3dpo so still quite a bit of a wait for me. Been keeping busy to keep my mind of things.

Good luck!!

Joleyjojo · 26/09/2024 13:47

5DPO and it is dragging 😂😂😂 tbh I have to be kind to myself. The miscarriage was only 4 weeks ago and I haven’t had a period. BFP would be amazing of course but if AF comes I need to be thankful my body is regulating. Fingers crossed for everyone x

MsCactus · 26/09/2024 13:51

I'm 10dpo and planning to test tomorrow at 11dpo.

My symptoms, pro pregnancy:

  • veiny, larger boobs (though also get larger boobs with PMS)
  • painful boobs
  • lots of CM
  • fatigue
  • peak ovulation tests (got this with my last pregnancy)

My symptoms, pro period:

  • migrainey
  • large boobs
  • moodiness

It's 50/50 in my mind... Fingers crossed

MsCactus · 26/09/2024 13:53

Oh @Ellamaee your post just reminded me - I'm constipated too 🙈 is that a sign?!

I’m not sure if it’s a sign I just remember with my first pregnancy the constipation was absolutely wild 🤣 something to do with raising progesterone I believe 🤞🏻

Your post made me think. Hmmm 🤔 my boobs are really achey 😂
is 5DPO to early for symptoms. I never used to get achey boobs, I also feeling like my period is coming which is weird as either way I still have a long way to wait x

I'm feeling a little hopeful. I was feeling quite sure I was pregnant, but this morning the aura migraine and moodiness is textbook PMS for me - so now I'm really not sure!!!

I wish a lot of the pregnancy and PMS symptoms were less similar 😂😂

Ellamaee · 26/09/2024 13:58

I’ve been having mild cramps, like one sided period cramps only on one side and now sharp twinges in lower centre of my pelvis . Probably nothing but I don’t remember ever getting pms symptoms so soon!

Haha. Hmm OK well I've been constipated for the last three days - if it's not pregnancy then I guess I'm just having a rough month 🙈

You and me both , I’ve got every symptom under the sun but then again I’m very very in tune with my body so any small twinge I’m well aware of so I could just be imagining 🤣
