Tried not symptom spotting - not going well!

[Hfair1]

Hey lovelies. Ive been TTC for around a year now and tried to avoid testing and symptom spotting this cycle but here we are!

I’m currently 8DPO:

Super oily skin (like you could cook an egg with this much oil)
Cold sores appeared yesterday (prone to them but it’s been years since I’ve had them and I have two)
Some discomfort in boobs
Bit more tired than usual
Super weird dreams the last few nights
CM has been more than usual and a mix of creamy/egg whiteish

Tested yesterday at 7DPO and it was of course negative cause it’s too early lol.

What is everyone else’s symptoms? Particularly interested to see if the oily skin/coldsores are common or not!

Mine is having sore bits, wiping hurts! Just got bfp and had the same with my first, very weird symptom! My first took 10 months so keep trying 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Hey I’m 8dpo too
my symptoms are lower Bach ache since 2dpo had spotting 2dpo and 5dpo tested 7dpo negative tested this morning and bfn again last night I had a fall and badly hurt my ankle which has resulted in having a boot put on got bad belly ache today, been really foggy headed for days forgetting things just trying to not symptom spot is awful been trying since my miscarriage in feb 2023

It took me a very long time (years) to conceive my daughter, and the only cycle I was convinced I wasn’t pregnant (didn’t even test early, practically gave up) was the one I conceived her. I clocked every damn symptom in the book and they were all just PMS.
Currently going through the same thing again with my period randomly being 3 weeks late but quite hoping to be unexpectedly pregnant…but bfn today, sore boobs (normal PMS) and acid reflux (unusual)….but it’ll just be Aunt Flo getting her retaliation in early as usual.
TLDR: if you assume every symptom is PMS you’re more likely to be pleasantly surprised.

Symptoms mean nothing
only time will tell you if you are pregnant or not !
good luck !
