7dpo weird symptoms?

[vocalbeauty]

Ok. I believe I O'd this cycle on Cycle day 19.

I've been cramping since i O'd but oddly enough over the last couple of days 4 days I've had tingling breasts. And the last 2 days sweaty palms and feet. My house is by no means warm. So it would not be because I am hot.

I have cramping, backache, gas, some fatigue and bubbly feelings in my lower tummy. Not gas bubblies though?

Im really not sure whats going on. I feel crazy right now! We've been TTC for over a year and only about 6 months ago I found out I wasnt even ovulating.

 

[mymarley]

I'm at about 7dpo 've been feeling weird too. Gas, extremely dry mouth, and cramping before and during ov and then for about a week afterwards. It's suddenly disappeared. I'm starting to think I misjudged when I ov'd.

I also recently developed what feels like insane labial bruising. I can't touch them without wincing, they're so sensitive! I ride horses and occasionally have to deal with some friction burn between my legs but I've NEVER, in years and years of riding and jumping, experienced bruising feelings like this. They look a bit swollen but not that bad honestly.... just oww.

I'm trying not to test until at least 10dpo. These are all really new/abnormal symptoms for me, so I'm trying not to get too freaked just yet. FC and GL to you!!

I know what you mean on the new thing. I have a 2 year old daughter and got pregnant on birth control so I dont even know what symptoms I had. I didnt even know I was preg until I was 8 weeks and I only tested because AF was very late *but that wasnt usual* and I had cramps.

Its been a long year. The tingly boobs and sweaty palms have got me confused to the max though. I couldnt help myself and tested tonight. *facepalm* I should know better but I couldnt help myself. Got a BFN of course. Im not going to test until 12DPO unless I get my period by then as I have to start the progesterone again.

 

[mymarley]

I know I gave in and tested too. Tricking myself into seeing shadows.

Birth control really screwed me up too. I really mixed up a cycle earlier and had the works. Boobs, veins, fatigue, bits of spotting, dreams, dizziness, everything... BFN, turns out my hormones were just all over the place from the BC.

The sheer lack of obvious symptoms and simple "weirdness" this month is making me think positively

Hopefully we'll have some answers soon.

Have you all been having these symptoms for a few days, or did they start just today or yesterday? I am only 5dpo, so I really shouldn't have any symptoms yet if I'm preg, I assume. My breasts have HURT since 1 dpo--this is totally unusual for me. I know it can't be a pregnancy symptom at this point, but I'm hoping that it means my hormones are normalizing...Any insight? I dealt with adrenal fatigue for about a year before TTC, so my hormones were shot for a while. I didn't get any CM for months. I think my hormone levels are really healthy and regular now, but I can't even remember what a 'normal' cycle felt like...Also getting creamy CM and crazy dreams. I assume all latent O symptoms? You ladies sound well-versed in this stuff

 

[Ms. Shortie]

I'm only DPO6 and the waiting is driving me nuts. No real symptoms here so not sure what to make of it. I wonder what' the earliest a person can get a positive test. Hopefully I can hold out to at least DPO 10 or 12. Yikes

 

[mymarley]

The fact my weirdness has been around since 4/5dpo is making me think I misjudged when I o'd. I could be more 8/9. I wasn't really sure... didn't get any definite ewcm and so took a stab in the dark based off the other cm I was having. I'm waking up exhausted now and I'm still ridiculously constipated. Dry mouth, sore crotch, and stuffy nose persist... cramping gone. ETA: cramping sites still sore if I touch them. I just can't really feel it otherwise.

I got another BFN (evap) this morning though. Putting the sticks on the top shelf until I think I'm at 11dpo at least. No more psyching myself out.

If your hormones are normalizing and you're not sure what your normal cycle feels like anymore having sore boobs could just be an ovulation sign, especially if it occurs so early. From what I understand creamy and ewcm are more sperm-friendly and are present around your peak fertility days. I've also read that cm can increase and remain "fertile looking" in the early days... so maybe this is a good sign for you! And dreams I've heard are hit/miss. Could just be an overactive subconscious freaking out about the tww

I've seen ladies here getting them as early as 7/8dpo but most seem to try to hold out til at least 11/12. I've been a major lurker :/ CDTP says the majority of bfp's start popping up 11-16dpo. I'm with you on the yikes. I just want to have it done with

oops

My weird symptoms like the tingly breast started is think around 1DPO and then on 4DPO 6DPO 7DPO its random. Its been happening almost everyday once or twice that I notice just like the "let down tingle" i would feel when breast feeding my daugther. Sweaty Palms were the last 2 days. Still have cramps, and backache.

Its all really hard for me to tell if its actual symptoms or what. We've been ttc for over a year and a half and just found out 6 months ago i wasnt even O'ing and I think this is the first cycle that I o'd but im wondering if it is just the chlomid giving me funky symtoms. My temps are still up at 36.74 celcius and havnt come down to my coverline at 36.5 yet

I've been sleeping really rotten though and having some CRAZY DREAMS.

Crossing my fingers

Thank you! I really do hope that it's just my hormones normalizing. I keep discounting with myself that I went through a major health problem for over a year that messed with my hormones...I got my period really young so I just thought that I was starting to get hormonal issues early (I'm only 26 now). I think the sore breasts were an ovulation sign and the lingering soreness (which is fading) was just residual hormones--or maybe sore because of the progesterone shift and now my body is used to it.

Anyway! I know, when I started getting creamy CM again I thought I may have mis-timed ovulation, but my temps indicate that I already did, as do the OPKs I was using. We've BD-ed soooo much this month, though--I hope we hit a peak day or two!

I think the dreams are definitely related to the TWW stress--I also usually get poorer/more restless sleep a little after ovulation as the progesterone makes my temps climb.

Thanks again--feeling more normal now!

 

[mymarley]

^^I'm glad you're feeling better. My hormones have seriously freaked me out before haha. I never know what's up. I'm not doing any of the opk's or clomid or temps since I'm just ntnp. I keep thinking I should just at least do temps so that I can get well-acquainted with my body and what's normal for it. But hey.

"Ovulation week" was definitely bd-happy so I'm thinking we must have at least hit a peak day once. If anything we were maybe a little overzealous
I'm popping into the clinic tomorrow for my cramps since I'm high risk for PID and want to get everything checked and all-cleared. He'll prob have me do a test but I still think it's too early. At least it'll save me one of mine

 

[vocalbeauty]

I know what you mean there. i've already wasted one of mine and i was only 7DPO. Bad Bad Bad but I cannot help it. Im promising myself I will not do another one until I am done my progesterone and AF shows no signs. That should be my guarantee. At least thats why my GYNO said. If you take the progesterone and dont get a period TESTY TIME. But it can be a long grueling wait because it can take up to 10 days after taking it to get AF

Luckily for me this last AF I only had to take it for 4 day before she reared her ugly head.

 

[mymarley]

How much progesterone have you got left? I'm not very familiar with how that works.

 

[vocalbeauty]

Im suppose to take 10mg once a day for 7 days. I just started today so I have 6 days left. Basically estrogen is what is present after your period and before ovulation. Once ovulation occurs your progesterone levels are suppose to rise. If they are low it usually means that you didnt ovulate but it also means that its very difficult to have a period. The progesterone basically gives me AF. Im allow to take it 21 days or so after I take the Ovulation Drug Chlomid Otherwise it can screw stuff up somehow. Im not 100% sure on that one. But anyone My Gyno said that even if I were to take the progesterone and gotten pregnant it will not effect the developing embryo but will give a definate determination to whether I am pregnant or not. No period after pills = hopefully pregnant, period after pills = try again.

 

[mymarley]

That makes sense, thank you for explaining. I hope we all have some definitive answers in a few days

 

[vocalbeauty]

I know its make me crazy waiting for AF or no AF. GAHHHHHH its horrible lol.

 

[mymarley]

So my nips started hurting last night. Just the actual nipple, not the areola or breast, and only when it gets bumped or something. And my left hurts considerably more than my right. I've never had uneven boob pain before... not sure if I should worry or not. Off to the doc in two hours anyway.

 

[lauren26]

Oooo I've heard that's a good sign! Hope it is for you

 

[mymarley]

The doctors pg test today came up negative, but I'm only 8/9 dpo and they don't use particularly sensitive ones right? That's what I've heard, anyway. The nurse was absolutely adamant that I was not pg, even when I told her that AF wasn't due for another week and that I would have conceived only eight days ago Whatever.

The doctor was more optimistic. I was in for pelvic pain so she's running a bunch of tests, but she said with my sore nips starting at this point she definitely wants me to watch closely for AF and said that if the witch is at all late I'm to come to the clinic for a proper test

At least she didn't write me off immediately like the nurse did.

ETA: hahah I just realized... I'm down visiting my mother for the weekend and completely forgot all my cheapie hpts, both kinds. At least now I won't be tempted. Forbidding myself from getting any expensive tests until I see *something* on a cheapie.

 

[vocalbeauty]

I went to our local dollarama and boughT 3 $1.25 cheapies.lolone which I'll probably use tomorrow at 10DPO. Then I don't feel guilty wasting $15 tests
