9DPO -dizziness & headaches

[loobie]

Hi everyone..I'm new to all this but am driving myself round the bend & going round in circles on the internet so figured it would be much easier to bite the bullet & ask for advice.
I'm currently 9dpo & over the past few days have been experiencing a range of symptoms...7dpo I had pretty much constant lower back pain & cramping in my lower abdomen (a bit like AF pains) & whilst my bb's didn't 'hurt' as such I had some strange tingling in my nipple. I've had headaches on/off pretty much since 2dpo & have had spells of dizziness too. I also feel (& sound) like I have a cold,although this mostly gets worse at night.Since yesterday (8dpo) I've had some visual disturbances & achy/stinging breasts. The visual disturbances are made worse by using the laptop),I feel slightly spaced out & keep forgetting what I'm doing.I'm also pretty much exhausted but this could also be PMT as I usually feel pretty worn out during the run up to af. My nose keeps running today too!
I wondered if anyone else was having these symptoms or had experienced them?
Thanks guys.

Hi loobie,

I haven't found out if I am PG yet; but your symptoms sound a lot like I did in the middle/end of April! Like right after ovulation I had a headache that lasted two weeks (not a horrible one, just a dehydrated/annoying/hungover feeling in the front of my head). With this I had the occassional dizzy spell and nausea.

The nausea stopped about 3 days ago, headache is still kind of there but less noticable.
I'm just waiting to see if AF will come tomorrow.

Lu-is , let's hope that evil stays away...

Loobie..... WELCOME!!!!!

Thank you for replying ladies...I just took a great big sigh of something like relief,mainly that I'm not losing my mind!
Strangely enough my bb's are now hurting again,whilst I get the odd twinge in them during the day-it's like they 'wake up' at night!
I know how easy it is to read PMS symptoms as pregnancy related symptoms & am keeping my fingers crossed!

Hi loobie. I have all the same symptoms as you except the sore boobs. I am on 8dpo. When are you testing. Will keep my fingers crossed for you and good luck. X

Hi...I'm going to wait until I am a few days past my af due date (saturday)...to be honest I would test everyday if I could but that will just slowly send me mad so I'm going to leave it as long as possible!
When are you testing?
This morning I'm still a bit woozy & my bb's are hurting slightly more than they were. On another note I'm also having really vivid drams including one at 3dpo in which I had a positive pregnancy test (probably means nothing but strange nevertheless!).
Good Luck hulagirl...please keep in touch.xx

Hi loobie. Well hopefully your dream was a good omen for you. I will keep my fingers crossed for you.
As for me i decided to test this am with fmu ( not quite sure why other than to drive myself mad i think) unsurprisinly it came back negative ( clueblue digital) so i decided to take it apart lol. It had 3 lines inside which i have since read is what it always does. So i have managed to drive myself crazy and end up with even more questions. Lol
hope your ok. X

Morning ladies

Hula, how many dpo are you??? When's af due? Could just be too early!!!

I resisted the urge to test today. I only have one hpt left so wanna save it for Sunday.

Loobie, when ya gonna test????

 

[loobie]

Hey ladies..Certainly sounds like I'm not in this one alone! I could quite easily become a test addict but I'm managing to resist (so far!) I will probably go for it after the weekend -unless of course AF rears it's head! This has been the longest week ever!
The dizziness has eased a lot today but my bb's are very sore,especially on the sides...I have no idea whether I'm just pre menstrual & can't imagine why mother nature would make the symptoms of pregnancy & PMS so similar!Lol

 

[CupcakeMommy]

I know the feeling.... I think that every cycle!!!!!

 

[hulagirl]

Loobie- you are def not in this alone. X
cupcake- i am due to test on tue/wed. I realislictly knew it was too early but was trying to be positive. Lol. It is also prob a bit soon after my mmc but i just want to be pregnant again.
Xx

 

[CupcakeMommy]

I know girl. I had a mc back in October and we started trying again this last january... We are so ready too!!!!

 

[loobie]

Hey ladies...hope you are all well. Just thought I'd update my symptoms!

Well the dizziness has taken a back seat,although I do still feel constantly 'spaced out'. The headache is still there but less painful..more nagging! My biggest issue today is my bb's...oh lord,they hurt & it's definitely not the same as a PMT pain..for a start they hurt so much I want to hold them constantly!Lol...& my nipples are hurting which is also defo not usual for me.I'm also a bit achy in my arms & thighs today...have no idea what this is!Also this is the third day of me falling asleep on the sofa!Oh & while af style cramping has stopped,I now feel like I have pressure across my lower stomach???Strange but true!
I STILL refuse to believe until I see that BFP but I'm feeling a bit more confident today. Hope everyone is good!:

 

[hulagirl]

Hi loobie- your symptoms all sound really good. Fingers crossed.
All my symptoms have gone now except feeling tired, which i think is down to not sleeping well and itchy skin which i have no idea about. I dont feel positive anymore and am just waiting for af to turn up.
Hope you are all good and enjoying the weekend. X

It's not over till it's over hun..try & stay positive,until arrives you're still in!
I was due AF today but nothing so far & I woke this morning quite nauseous-my bb's still hurt pretty much constantly & I still can't shake that hungover feeling but I'm still scared to take a test!

 

[hulagirl]

Loobie take a test. Your symptoms all sound soooo good. Fingers crossed.
Well i did test this am negative and when i wiped there was blood. So i guess thats me out this month unless you can get i/b on days 10-11 ish.
Loobie keep us posted. X

 

[loobie]

For you HulaGirl...

I'm going to test tomorrow,not sure I can wait any longer than that anyway!
This TTC a;ways seems a bit cruel to me at this point..well a LOT cruel actually it's be nice if we could have some definitive symptom that could tell us THIS is pregnancy,distinguishing from the PMT symptoms!

[hulagirl]

Yeah this whole ttc is soooo hard. The waiting for two weeks and then having to try again. You would of thought someone would of come up with a quick test that would say yes or no 48 hours after ovulation lol wishful thinking.
Good luck with the testing tomorrow. Keep us posted. Xx

Hi...just an update,symptom wise...well today has been the oddest so far.Firstly I tested & it was BFN...BUT I'm not out yet,firstly no AF..& more importantly no sign of it at all! I'm still having pressure on my lower abdomen,still have sore bb's & woke up feeling very nauseous this morning,it wore off towards lunch time then reappeared this afternoon.I also have a very runny nose but no cold.
Don't know if this is TMI but I have very white,very creamy CM...
So ladies,I'm still living in limbo!Maybe it's too early to test??It DID take me a week after my period was due to test BFP with my daughter-so maybe it's just the way my body works?
Basically I have no idea-the test I used was a VERY cheap test so Im going to keep testing starting tomorrow with a better test & see what happens.
