5 dpo anyone?

Hi everyone,
I’m now 5 dpo and have had period like cramps since 2 dpo. At 5 dpo today and not had much cramping today - no other symptoms. Has anyone faced the same?

Tested with a cheapie at work and I think I see something! It showed up within 2-3 min. What do you guys think?

Thank you! I'm still worried so I'm going to retest every 2 days to see if it gets darker.
I'm still processing 😅

You lucky lucky ladies lol!
did any of you have some spotting? I had a bit more runny, light brownish/pinkish CM yesterday PM in my liner. Nothing today - here’s to hoping 🤞🏼

Yes I did over the weekend and a little bit today- dark brown and quite dry/sticky. Seems to have all gone now. Do you normally have anything like that before AF? I don’t so to me it was a promising sign!
I also remember that I had implantation bleeding with my daughter but that was more watery and pink. So it just shows that it can vary.

Ahh, thanks for sharing.
No, I never normally get that. I had it lightly for about 2 days - nothing today and AF is due on Friday, so let’s see I guess. I didn’t test today. Avoiding it for a few days, as avoiding more disappointment I guess lol

No spotting so far. Cm was dry/ sticky after ovulation and was a bit watery today.

LuckyMoonstone · 14/01/2025 14:15

@Goldsy when will you test?

Goldsy · 14/01/2025 14:29

LuckyMoonstone · 14/01/2025 14:15

@Goldsy when will you test?

Maybe I’ll give it a go tomorrow morning then..
nervous for it but I guess there’s no running away from it, ha!
I just need to remember that it’s not the end of the world if it’s negative but easier said than done sometimes..

You should definitely test with FMU tomorrow! Have you got any early detection tests or just the cheap strips?

I have the cheapy ones from Amazon and also clear blue early detection - will test with FMU tomorrow 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Unless your period has arrived, you are not out! Are you 100% sure on your ovulation dates? Implantation could have been later than expected too.

I'm sorry x you're not out until AF shows up though! Sometimes implantation is later than expected.

Goldsy · 15/01/2025 18:18

Thanks ladies - your kind words mean a lot. I had some light brown/pinkish cm (not when wiped though) at 9 dpo, which I never get, so thought it was a good sign but to still get a BFN at 12 dpo, I don’t think it’s likely. Just have to try again!

Not sure if you’ll see this but after months of trying, I finally got my BFP!
Clear blue confirmed 2-3 weeks! So exciting - no symptoms yet though, so very strange.
hope you’re all doing well

32 weeks now and almost at the finish line. How are you feeling?

BambinaBoo · 20/07/2025 02:41

Hi, everyone.

I’m 7DPO & experiencing cramping with a raised temperature. Did anything come of your early symptoms. Would love to get an update.

It didn’t that cycle for me but now I’m 10 weeks along.
this time leading up to it, I didn’t feel anything. Tested 1 day after a missed period and got a positive. I know it’s hard but you just need to not think about it and it’ll happen
