Calling all symptom spotters!

[Ladybuggz]

Hey Ladies,
I'm currently around 12DPO (if I ovulated on cycle day 14) and (TMI WARNING) had lots of discharge with a streak of red blood. Think I might be experiencing the beginnings of the It's strange as I don't feel particularly emotional (I always cry a day before I get my period!), I actually feel really relaxed. Hmmm....

 

[Smashley25]

I think af should be here tomorrow or Friday. My luteal phase seems to be vary by a day or two so even today isn't unreasonable. I'm going to the gyno in the morning so I suppose one way or another, I'll find out then. Thinking about asking for a quantitative blood test so I can stop obsessing. Plus then ill know what the appointment's point is. I originally scheduled because of two months without ovulation, but if I am pregnant, then I guess that's less of an issue.

FRERs are more sensitive but I think the clear blue would probably work by the weekend too. You could always do the Clear Blue and double check with a FRER if it was negative. Actually, I'd probably double check anyway as I've heard of several people getting false positives with the digis.

Hello all, newbie here

I am currently 10 dpo and have been having symptoms since 6 dpo, firstly what I am hoping is implantation blooding, intermittent light spotting, also super sensitive nipples, very vivid dreams and major fatigue.

My period is due Sunday / Monday so I am just waiting to see if it arrives before taking a test...everything is crossed and wishing the days away!

 

[mamawanabe21]

Bella - I would stick to a cheaper test (dollar tree is it?) and keep the digi for when you've got your bfp on one of them. I hear they can give you a false positive because they aren't as sensitive as the others, so I don't think they're worth the risk of possible heartache
And a line is a line, no matter how faint! If there was a line CONGRATS

Ashley, you're still in! I've had AF like cramps since O, but apparently it's the mucles and everything doing their bit. You're not out until AF is in!!

to you both. I'm still hanging around, waiting for your s!!

Possible implantation bleeding?
I'm 100% positive that I implanted 7dpo because I had a huge temp dip and cramping on the right side more so this day, but I didn't get the spotting until 10dpo...gross I know but I think because there wasn't much (as apposed to AF) it took a while to travel down

sending lots of sticky

Thanks! I would be ecstatic if I were pregnant, just worried as the blood was red (and not pink or brown). *Fingers crossed*

Congrats again on your BFP! I love reading about people getting their positives!

 

[Smashley25]

Okay... So I'm shaking but still not sure that its not all in my head. I was bad and took another frer. Probably somewhere around a two hour hold. I can't decide if its the real thing or me seeing the stupid antibody line.

Here is test.

Here is same picture with the auto-enhance feature on my phone.

Here is same picture with the saturation thing increased.

I don't know if its bad but the color on the actual test seems to be fading. I can barely see it now. The pictures are from somewhere between 5-7 minutes after pee.

 

[Smashley25]

This is terrible. I'm petrified of going to the doctor now because what if it is just an evap? Or a chemical pregnancy since its still so faint. I already mourned this baby twice this month. I don't want to have to do it a third time. Why do I do this to myself????

Also my stomach is really tight and sore. It's not even my uterus, it's my ab muscles and I couldn't tell you the last time I did crunches.

 

[Smashley25]

Testing... trying to figure out how to make my pictures clickable so they get bigger.

Well, I don't know how and I apparently can't figure out how to delete posts either. :/ Help?

Ashley, you're still in! I've had AF like cramps since O, but apparently it's the mucles and everything doing their bit. You're not out until AF is in!!

to you both. I'm still hanging around, waiting for your s!!

Thanks Emma! Good plan, I'll run and grab a cheaper one tomorrow How are you feeling now hun? Having any other pregnancy symptoms yet? So happy for you & the little bean! is your OH still oblivious to the BFP?

I can't resist testing again now bc (tmi) I checked my CP and it's high soft and closed which is NEVER is before AF. It's always closed low and firm and my OH even noticed tonight when we BD He's not getting too excited but I can tell he is wondering if I might be preggo, he even said "you smell like sex and love", but usually before AF he's said I don't smell as "hot". LOL sorry if that was TMI! bbs are bigger too today. If i'm not preggo I'm going to have one helluva AF. Bought a bottle of wine tonight juuuust in case I need to drown my sorrows (i'd never go overboard but a glass or two can't hurt

Welcome Loubyroo! Your symptoms sound super positive I've got my FX for you!! How are you feeling tonight hun? Any new symptoms?

Ladybugzz: I've got my FX for you too hun!! sending some your way!

Ashley: I do see a faint line on the first test! Don't worry about he DR appointment it's good to know one way or another, that way if it's not this month you can relax regroup and focus on the next cycle. I'm still sending more your way for a Christmas BFP! And if AF hasn't shown yet you're still in it to win it!

 

[Smashley25]

Bmama, I can't wait for you to test! Btw, I love the "you smell like sex and love" bit! Made me actually lol!

My cp is just like yours! I didn't do that much checking before about a month ago so not sure if this is normal for me or not post-o.

Thanks for the baby dust! Sending some right back! Still nervous about tomorrow but whatever happens will happen and either I'm pregnant or the doctor can help me get pregnant so it's a win-win.

The main symptoms I'm having are all the weird stomach cramps and pains and sensations plus daily headaches. I'm not tired, nor do I have sore boobs or nausea. We shall see.

 

[StitchFan]

Okay... so I'm also a newbie to this CP checking. I just checked for the first time in the shower tonight, and it seems very hard and very far up... I could barely reach! What's the normal or expected for your cervix?

Random... I've inseminated lots of cows and had to located many bovine cervix(es?)... and I'm kinda ashamed to say I hadn't checked my own before.

 

[SMGP]

Hey ladies! I have talked to a few of you before but I am new to this thread. I feel like I am going symptom crazy! I am 4 dpo and ever since I have been having weird little cramps and my boobs hurt like AF is going to come tomorrow! I just feel crazy cause I know a lot of those symptoms don't start right away! Ahhhhh it ks so frustrating!

Yes OH is still oblivious! I'm pretty impressed with myself if I do say so myself!
I have my first doctor appointment today...a little nervous. Worried she's going to tell me all 27 blush: shock/denial?) positive tests I've done are false!
I have one new main symptom: pregnancy insomnia. But hoping that the doc can help me with that! Was exhausted before, but now I'm having to nap during the day.
All the other symptoms have pretty much started to disappear, except my bbs, but I hear that's normal too, and they'll probably return in a few weeks!

Let me know when you do the test!! I'm so excited for you! I meant that the digitals give false negatives, not positives, but I guess you realized that lol. Another symptom: brain has gone to mush!!

Ashley: All us girlies here are with you on this. Sending lots of sticky . Like Bella said, you're still in it to win it until AF shows her ugly head!

Stitch I never checked my CP because my nails are so long I'm scared I'm gunna hurt myself! (Guess they'll have to go for my bean!) But OH did say that when we BD'd the day before I O'd that my cervix was extremely low, even for me. I even told him that my cervix was really sore after, so I think this was the magic night! He also couldn't keep his hands off me. Normally it was me always initiating it, but this month it's been him! I guess I never noticed these things until I look back!

SMGP that sounds super positive! Cramps can be caused by O'ing! So lets hope those spermies caught that little egg!! sending to you!


to all my future bump buddies! C'mon, let's get fat together

 

[Smashley25]

Ew, insomnia. . Hope you sleep better tonight.

Well, just got to the doctor's office...30 minutes early. Guess I'll know more soon, but I'm so nervous!

 

[babydoll30]

[Ladybuggz]

Thank you for all the baby dust ladies! The witch (at the moment) is still not here!

FX for you Smashley!! And you too Emma!! that you have wonderful dr appointments! We will be here for you no matter what!

I hear pregnancy insomnia is common Emma- hoping the Dr can suggest natural ways to alleviate it! I find when I can't sleep a good BD can do the trick

Babydoll I hope you feel better soon!! FX that your immense system is down bc a little bean is working to get comfy in there!

stitchfan LOL to checking bovine cervixes! I don't know why but I LOL'd so loud when I read that! I've read after O usually your cervix becomes low and closed and hard (i've experienced this other cycles), but when you are pregnant typically your cervix stays high and softer to protect the baby. That said I still think everyone's cervix is different so it's hard know what's normal and what's not :/

SMGP welcome! Sending more your way for a Christmas BFP! Are you having any other symptoms? When do you plan to test?

 

[Bmama]

BTW I woke up super nauseous this morning to the smell of my OH cooking breakfast and it made me run to the toilet! I seriously thought I was going to wretch in bed! One more day until AF is due FX she stays away!!!
