Hi!

I'm so confused I'm currently TTC and I'm currently on CD 56, I have really irregular periods and I'm currently in my TWW at 7 days DPO and I've not had any symptoms, I've not really had any sore boobs or any headaches but today I felt turned off by my breakfast (bacon) which is odd as it's a favourite and I couldn't stand the smell of it cooking at all it smelt disgusting and the other thing which has developed this evening is a sicky taste in the back of my mouth, I don't feel sick and I wouldn't necessarily say my chest hurts or burns either I know I shouldn't be symptom spotting as I'll be able to test soon! But has anyone experienced this? Any help would be appreciated as I'm kind of scared ConfusedGrin

Symptoms are caused by the pregnancy hormone, hcg. This won’t be in your system at high enough levels (if at all) by 6/7DPO. So in answer to your question, no it’s not a symptom. Implantation takes 6 days at the earliest, usually around 8-9, and then it’s only once the egg has implanted that hcg is made, and doubles every 2-3 days. That’s usually why Frer tests pick up a positive first, because they only need 6miu to detect a pregnancy. Most other tests require either 25 or 50.
I know how hard ttc is, it took me a long long time, but honesty, you need to stop looking for symptoms that aren’t there and can’t physically be caused by hcg. Hope that doesn’t come across as harsh. Good luck with your ttc journey.

Aothought I'm not sure on levels and dates as someone has said above, my very first symptom with my last pregnant was heartburn. I never ever suffered with it and it was enough to make me buy a test. This was a week before I was due on and it was positive.

I had extremely bad heartburn/acid reflux in my last pregnancy before I even got a positive test.

I'm hoping it means I'm pregnant! I've never had it before, I had to do a whole lot of searching and asked my mum and ended up calling my doctor who told me it was heartburn and/or acid reflux! I felt horrible all day today with it, I also felt really tired and quite moody today! Only 7DPO but you've given me some hope! Smilexx

@TwinkleStars15
You're probably right, I think I'm just trying to symptom spot! I'm just trying to have some hope but I guess we'll see how it goes Smile
