Hi Everyone, I don't often post on here but everyone elses posts have helped me through the long 2week wait as well as my years of waiting to conceive before that so I wanted to share my story. I initially had loads of symptoms as early as 4/5dpo- I thought i was making them up in my head as so many people say you can't have symptoms that early. but I now know they were real. I felt tired, very emotional- a lot of crying and also mood swings, had vivid dreams (where I would remember my dreams up till the point i woke up) my sense of smell was very strong and I didn't like the taste of the food I usually liked, nor did I feel like drinking. I was convinced I was gonna get a BFP. But at 10dpo I did a test and it was negative, I was so dissapointed, and did another one at 11dpo. I felt like an idiot after telling my husband and sister all about my 'pregnancy symptoms', and forgot all about it, around 12 dpo I could start feeling 'period pains' and then spent the weekend socialising ,eating out, drinking
lifting heavy boxes and waiting for my period to start so that I could focus on next month. Well on Monday morning (yesterday) when my period was now 4 days late I did another test. I've never been pregnant before so I didn't expect anything other than a BFN- after 100% bfns and a POAS addiction you don't actually expect to ever see anything else.. I did the test and left it on the side whilst I went next door. 2 mins later I returned and was about to chuck the test in the bin when the 1-2 weeks text caught my eye. Could. not. believe. it. Really didn't think it was my month and just felt like my period was about to come. Am still in shock, and a little anxious but also so happy and excited. Good luck to all you ladies in 2ww and TTC, I had pcos and spent years worrying that I wouldn't be able to conceive. Now that i've had a BFP my symptoms have stepped up a gear and have had a lot of cramping, headaches, vivid dreams, extreme fatigue and slight sickness. xxx
