8DPO, CD17 of 22, cramping, feeling bloated...

[RachaelP1027]

I'm 8 DPO and on CD 17 of 22... My next cycle is roughly 5 days away... Is it too early to test? I'm really crampy and just all around feeling bloated. I have a love for coffee and this morning it started to make feel sick... Also the can of tuna I opened this morning had such a strong smell, I fought to mix it together for my lunch today. So could it be that I'm starting to prepare for pregnancy? Or just getting ready to start my next cycle...
My BBT this morning was 97.52, does that suggest ovulation has occurred?? So many questions going through my brain.

Hi Rachael! Did you test already? How'd it turn out?

Personally, I'm not a fan of testing early and would rather just wait to see if AF shows up, but that's me. I'm afraid it'll be too hard to actually see a bfn.

I think of the early testers, they usually wait to test until 10-12 dpo. You waste fewer tests that way when the hsg is too faint for the tests to pick up.

GL with TTC and lots of babydust!

No I have not tested yet! My AF is due Tuesday... I was contemplating testing Sunday! Today, if I ovulated on the 18th would be my implantation day! So I'm going to wait a few more days!
