3DPO - symptom spot with me anyone?

[Louise N]

oh! oh! i have to add something. i went to acupuncture today after two weeks and had these positive symptoms...my temperature was a degree higher than normal...every time i'm there it's 97.6, i swear every time. today it was 98.6. also, she said my chinese pulse was slippery in all positions. she told me a couple of months ago that slippery pulse may indicate pregnancy because it recognizes something foreign in your body.
i did an OPK yesterday and today and today's was darker. i also took one this afternoon and the test line was gone. not overthinking it (who am i kidding?) but HCG is opposite LH as far as when it is stronger in your urine (FMU vs afternoon). i did an FRER and it was negative but i'm still only 9 DPO so i wasn't expecting much.
how is everyone else?

That sounds very promising! fingers crossed for you!

I am at 10dpo and the cramping and light pink/brown spotting I had at 8 and 9dpo has subsided for now, and I kinda feel normal, but different ya know? thats possibly in my head. My bbs are still a little sore and I have had REALLY dry skin, a dry itchy throat and a sensitive nose. I wore my favorite perfume the other day and I drove myself crazy sneezing over it. I cant stomache alot of caffine (unless its diet dr pepper, that seems like a treat to my body lately). LOL

I am constipated and DH says I have been more sensetive than normal to things..

That sounds good for you too! I didn't know dry throat could be a symptom i've been pretty thirsty for the last couple of days.

I'm still feeling very sick and it's getting stronger. I feel very different today. The hubby has also commented that my bb's seem bigger this month

I can't help wondering why i'm getting all of these symptoms though as with my 1st I didn't start feeling sick until I was 5 weeks and it's getting to the point where i'm thinking if i'm not pregnant than my body is playing one evil trick on us!

Fingers crossed for us all!

Hi to the newbies on the thread i'll try and catch up on your posts too.

still BFNs, 11 DPO, but i'm not disappointed as i didn't get a bfp last month until 12 DPO and it was really faint. last night my back started killing me, down low just above my tailbone. no matter what position i sat in it wouldn't go away.
i did take FertileCM this month but stopped a couple of days ago, i hope this isn't just giving me all of these weird symptoms and i'm really not pregnant. it helped me produce EWCM and was supposed to help build up the uterine lining. that coupled with the chemical i have no idea what my body is doing.

Well dearie, I took a test this morning too, it wasn't positive but I am only 10dpo, I just figured I would try given some women get a positive at that point. So you aren't alone. I don't know what the heck to think except maybe I am out this month a-freaking-gain!

I was looking at the fertileCM on a website and was even considering it since I was a Mirena user. But if there is a possibility that, thats why you felt that was last night then I am going to have to think about that a little longer. Isn't it all natural? I hope that it's just a pregnancy thats doing that and not the FertileCM.

My temps are still up and above my cover line, actually .6 degrees above it. It's even looking exactly like a prgnancy chart that I stumbled across. If any of your guys wanna take a look its availale near my tickers. tell me what you all think please.

Hope you all don't mind if I chime in... I want to symptom spot too! Today I am 7 DPO and this is probably the hardest 2ww yet b/c of some out of the norm spotting going on... and it's too early to test. Here are my "symptoms":

4 dpo: light cramps starting in the AM, off and on all day (felt like AF cramps, but way earlier than usual); felt kind of lightheaded at times; very fatigued

5 dpo: moderate "period-like " cramps off and on all day; mid-day noticed tan/light brownish creamy discharge when I wiped after pee (so sorry if TMI)--a little also showed up on panties; headache; very fatigued; just didn't feel right

6 dpo: light cramps off and on, but less noticeable and less often than the previous 2 days; small amount of tan/light brownish spotting (creamy; showed up on panties, but still a small amount) lightheaded at times; slightly stuffy nose before bed

7 dpo (today): No more cramps; a small amount of tan/light brownish spotting (which now appears to have stopped--I'll know for sure tomorrow); nothing else--felt much better today than the previous 3 days.

Does anyone think the spotting could be implantation spotting? Has anyone had the same symptoms and got a BFP?? I am 27 and have been TTC off and on for over a year. I don't want to get excited and then disappointed if it's nothing, but I've never had midcycle spotting accompanied by cramps at this point in my cycle, so I can't help but wonder what may be going on!

Hello and Welcome

I think that the spotting can be implantation spooting for sure; especially at 7 dpo. You taking temps at all? Well I am going to tell you this if, it hasn't happened before then you may get your BFP this month....Baby dust to you dear, and the rest of us poor darlings waiting it out this cycle.

BABY DUST, NO baby bust!!!

lol lol lol lol....You'd think it would be someone elses perfume that would get you...lol How can one do that to herself? lol lol lol BTW, I am going to have to say, put the Diet DP down on the ground and back away from the can!!! Those artificial sweeteners are bad for baby... The best thing to is drink a sprite or juice. I read about artificial sweeteners and the impact it has on the embryo. Plus there are amounts of caffeine in Brown drinks. If you need DP that bad, I love it too. You are going to have to drink a regular DR Pepper, just caffeine free.


baby dust to us all....

Hi Ladies can I symptom spot with you?

I'm not sure what dpo I am exactly.. I think 10 or 11dpo. So far I've had negative HPT but I still have some symptoms so I guess I'll force myself to wait another day or two.

Symptoms:
Headache - I've had a mild "dehydrated"/"hungover" feeling off and on for the past week and a half.
Nausea - started around the same day as the headache - thought I might've caught a stomache flu.
Dizziness
Gas - started about 2 nights ago.
Tired
Higher body temperature - it's been consistently high for the past 8 days.
Increased appetite.

Can this possibly be all in my head? I feel crazy.

 

[FngrsCrossed]

i just ate 3 pieces of pizza and a cupcake...i feel gross. why am i doing this to myself? if i find out i'm pregnant i'm really adamant about eating really healthy. my mom ate like crap when she was pregnant with me and i have bad skin and allergy problems. i don't want to pass that along to a future LO. i hate that i turn to food when i'm stressed. sorry for ranting but when i try to talk to my DH about it he says to suck it up. why are guys so bad at just listening and consoling?

lKat1984 is right, it's because they are men! They don't even think on the same level as we do. Almost everything is hormone based with us, we feel, they think (well they think sometimes at least lol). Sure we would love them to be a little more sensitive but the only men that are that way are gay guys, that's why they make the best friends to have lol. After DH and I truly conceive (whenever that will be), because I am thinking I may be out...I am going to give my DH shots of estrogen, or sneak a few pills in his coffee so he can see how I have been feeling all this time. lol lol lol lol I can see him all weepy and sensitive now!! kmsl

TO ALL: BABY DUST, NO BABY BUST!!

Hi there and welcome....

Sounds like some goodies you got going on.. No you are not crazy, just look at the rest of us. That means we have to be crazy too and we might or might not be, we aren't telling. I don't know about anyone else, but I haven't decided if I am crazy yet will keep you posted though.

However, what you have going on sounds promising. Are your temping, charting, or using OPK's? I am 10 dpo and I temp, use OPK's and check CP. I didn't do any of that last month, so. How many months have you been TTC and what number are you TTC?

hopefulX-i just went thru your posts again to see your symptoms and there is one i didn't notice until today when i was at an awesome restaurant-i didn't fancy anything! they had pasta, seafood, great salads and i didn't want any of it. it was really sad, actually.
i'm still really thirsty and have been drinking a ton of water but i feel so full...i just felt like i had to poo but could only go a little and when i tried to go just now and this morning it took a lot of effort...is that why preg women get hemorrhoids? lips feel chapped.
my lower lower back still hurts and my boobs feel bigger...they're not big to begin with and i am just aware of them, same goes with my inner thighs. when i asked DH if he thought (.)(.) looked bigger he was amazed and said yeah! it was like he was dumbfounded. acne breakouts on chin and forehead, i finally got all of them to go away last month after having bad skin for a year after coming off BCP.
took a pee test this morning and BFN, 11 DPO. last month with the chemical i didn't get my bfp until 13 DPO so i wasn't upset.

Yeah, I went to walmart with my mom today and was trying to decide what we wanted to eat for dinner and absolutely NOTHING sounded good.... and I KNOW I was hungry cause I hadnt eaten since yesterday. I had also had bad sinus problems...sensitivity to EVERYTHING that I smell. Food, airfreshner, perfume, cologne, any kind of smoke...candles EVERYTHING! And that hasnt changed :/ I am going to post a thread with all of my symptoms day by day....that way you dont have to search through all of my posts (I have posted alot and have only been on this forum since 04/21)

About the BBS, oh yeah they are sore and swollen, and I DO already have a large chest (36DD) so yeah :/ I am going to be miserable

I haven't been charting at all. I've been taking my temperature every day at the exact same times of the day and they've been sitting higher than my normal BT. I started about last Wed. because I thought I was getting sick (headache, sore throat.. but no fever.. just a slightly high temp).
I purchased some OPK's to use next month (I had surgery on my ovary about a month and a half ago and I do want to make sure I am able to ovulate).

My Husband and I are TTC #1. yay! Technically we weren't going to start TTC until next month, however I think there might've been a whoops with my BCP this month. (I kinda started the new pack late and missed another pill a couple days later).
Good thing I've been on prenatals for awhile and really if I do get a BFP it's not too far from when we were planning to start.. (I hope my DH doesn't get too scared if it happens :rflol: )

I've felt like that with food too! I haven't noticed any sensitivity to smells and such, and foods haven't tasted bad or made me more nauseous, but certain things that I would normally be interested in don't feel appealing.
I was thinking of picking up a burger to eat yesterday and the idea of it made me shudder a little lol. Did not sound like a good idea.

light pink spot when i just wiped...still bfn so i'm assuming af. blah

A whoops with the BCP may turn out to be a wonderful thing...#1...that's awesome. This would be #4 for DH and I...our #1 is 13 lol, God i feel so old saying that? why? lol I have been taking my prenatals for a while too. DH and I were suppose to start in June. So I was suppose to have my Mirena removed this month. But instead I had it removed in March. Hopefully you will also get your BFP this month. I think I am out again this month. My temp went down significantly...still above coverline, but waaaay down. Oh well, I guess I will give it another go this month and then possibly take a little break with a vacation included in that one.

Baby dust, no baby bust!!!
