The two week wait is killing me! Does this sound promising?

This would be my first pregnancy and the two week wait is so difficult! I am 13 dpo and I have been getting lots of symptoms that seem different to me. Due on my period in 2 days (hopefully not!)

I am having different symptoms, do these sound promising ladies?

-7dpo - to now constant congestion, running nose, sneezing and a slight sore throat just for 2 days.
-8dpo night sweats woke up really hot (this never happens to me) but only happened on one night.
-9dpo - unusually tired fell asleep at 4.30pm and tiredness is still with me on and off now.
-11dpo coughed up some yellowy mucus, continued congestion all night. Itchy scalp.
-12dpo quite sharp pains in stomach around 4pm and some heartburn. I thought I was about to start a bad period but nothing! Some odd cramps and twinges since. Quite bad lower back pain last night and a mild headache. I noticed my wee also smells strong!

The cramps don't feel like period cramps and normally I would always start my period within 12 hours of experiencing period pains. This hasn't been the case so I have my fingers crossed. I also never have lower back pain.

Ladies, what do you think? I really hope you think it sounds promising. I would be so happy to find out I was having a baby! I have bought a test and I am going to do this tomorrow or Thursday morning when I am due on.

The only symptoms I had with any of my pregnancies that early on was period like cramps so I just thought I would start my period (was shocked each time as really thought I was coming on). Good luck, hope you get your bfp tomorrow 🙂

Most of those symptoms sound more like you were fighting a bug to be honest. It’s easy to get carried away hoping everything is an early pregnancy symptom when you really want it to be true. Absolutely do a test if no sign of AF but try not to drive yourself mad symptom spotting, easier said than done I know.

With both of mine I had absolutely zero symptoms, tested morning AF was due and got blazing positives.
