TWW.. 7dpo, anyone else?

[Lemonsugar90]

I'm currently 7dpo (assuming I ovulated on 23/09)

Trying my hardest not to symptom spot but it’s so hard! I’ve been run down and poorly with a viral infection so can’t really pinpoint any symptoms I just feel like pure cack!

Anyone else at a similar stage in their cycle?

@Es92 fingers crossed it's implantation bleeding.

@slothbat I've been feeling like that for a few days now and today I've got a very slight familiar AF twinge.

Have ordered some tests from amazon so they will be here tomorrow.

@slothbat after speaking with my husband I think I'm going to test later today when he's home from work 😱 ive only got some cheapy test strips here to use today but I've just ordered some clear blue ultra early ones that will be here tomorrow. Going to feel like a very long wait until he gets home later!!

Hi ladies! I'm 6dpo today. Currently have an 8 year old, married 2 years ago, hoping this will be our first together.
Not so much to report the last few days apart from today, there's a strange feeling in the bottom of my belly that's like a cross between mild nausea and that butterfly nervous sensation.
I was going to try and wait for my period on the 10th October so I don't waste any money on tests but I'm so tempted to get some anyway!

@Gellato hey cycle buddy, I am also 6dpo and AF due 10 October! How long have you been ttc for baby no2? Can you remember having any early symptoms with your first?

@Es92 hey! We haven't really been trying, just seeing if it happens and if I think we caught it at the right time I start the countdown. How about you?
I know I had notes synced in my tracker app from all that time ago, I need to go back through and have a nosey 😁

So around this time I had stretchy yellow cm, spots on my shoulders and the same butterfly feeling. Only one or two of those are happening right now.

Give in, buy some and test a few days before the 10th 😉😂

@Es92 sorry just catching up! Eeekkkk we will all be waiting for the test result!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

@Duckwars I ended up doing exactly that just after my last post 😂 I'm gonna test on Sunday I think, I had my first faint + at 9dpo years ago.
How is everyone else doing? Don't forget to post tests I love looking at them 😆

I'm good thanks! Just had to drive somewhere for work and was thinking on the way back the thought of doing this all again next month 😭😭 it's actually mentally really tough!!!

I ordered some on amazon and then today when I was in home bargains I grabbed a box but I stupidly didn't get the early ones, I'll still give it a go in the morning though 😂

I've had more AF type aches so I'm doubtful but you never know! I can't remember any of my symptoms from before, I have a 8 & 9 year old.

@Duckwars 😂😂 this is what I would do which is why I'm staying away from the shops!!

Yeah some people have said they have no symptoms what so ever and others seem to get loads!

@Es92 how exciting!! Let us know your results ❤️

I’m going to b&m soon so might have to see if I can spot any early detection tests because the cheapies I’ve got are easy@ home and sure they’re not early tests??

@Lemonsugar90 I've never used those ones before, does it say 10mIU on them?

@Duckwars just checked on Amazon and they are 10miu so surely that means they are early detection? The lower the number the more sensitive they are?

@Lemonsugar90 yes definitely the early ones then. Fingers crossed for you!

So I did the test and it was a bfn, not even a touch of a vvvfl. I had drank a lot beforehand so maybe that's affecting it? I'm going to test again first thing tomorrow 😕

@Es92 how many dpo are you now? 6? Don’t let it dishearten you.. easier said than done I know. But yes test tomorrow and let us know!! 🤞🏼

@Es92 if you're only 6/7 dpo then it's probably too early to show yet. I'd give it a few more days as you may have not implanted yet and then you need to get the hcg built up.

@Es92 yes don't be disheartened as it's probably just too early!! Your making me want to do a test now 😂😂😂

Thanks ladies, you're right - it's still really early. I will still test tomorrow first thing and see. Ive still got a tiny bit of spotting - like a drop here and there, not like it was earlier and feeling mega bloated/uncomfortable. Who knows anymore 🙈

@Es92 so if you've had spotting today which could be implantation doesn't it take a couple days for any pregnancy hormone to start? Don't be disheartened at all! Xxxx

@slothbat I'm not actually sure how long it takes? I looked online but seems to be conflicting things about timing. God this all just messes with you mentally doesn't it?
How are you doing, are you going to hold off from testing sti?

@Es92 yeah it really is all a head fuck! I'm only 6DPO today so will hold off for as long as possible. This sounds so strange but the only reason I want to wait is because last month I tested early and each time I got a BFN was so disheartening, it's almost like if I don't know I could still be in with a chance before AF arrives 😂😂😂

@slothbat I get that! Ignorance is bliss for a bit I think, it also makes the wait for the next ovulation week feel sooo long. I definitely wouldn't have tested today if I hadn't had any bleeding, now I'm already over thinking about testing tomorrow so I think not testing mega early is the best approach x

@Es92 try and focus on something else for the moment. I know that's easier said than done, I'm currently getting period pains and can't help let the mind wander 😂 but before you know it the time will be here to take a test, sending love x
