Can I test now?

[tharya]

Hello ladies, mommies and mommies-to-be So the funny thing is, I wasn't actually TTC! DH and I been married less than a year, we didn't think we were ready for children just yet. This month we were not as careful as we usually are, and now I'm thinking I may be pregnant. Although this wasn't necessarily planned, I would be really happy if it were true

So I'm about 10 DPO, generally not feeling myself - started with indigestion a few DPO, feeling gassy, yesterday I had dull cramping in the morning on one side to what ended up feeling like period pain and went away (I'd say 2-3 hours), no implantation bleeding. From last night I feel beyond sleepy - like you know that feeling in your eyes, where your eyelids feel sticky, like they're going to close automatically? This afternoon I had the same feeling after lunch, I napped, woke up and felt fine, but only 3 hours later I'm sleepy again! Not really nauseous, just funny feeling after I eat, like its kind of difficult to digest. Oh, and forgot to mention, nipples very sore (sorry if TMI)!

So the question is - does this sound like pregnancy, and if so, when can I test? AF due on Monday!

Test tomorrow, with your FMU (first morning urine) and preferably use a First Response Early Result, FRER.

Good luck, sounds hopeful! I'm stalking this post

the only symptom that you have that i had before finding out i was pregnant(and yes, mine was a surprise with my boyfriend) i had this strange feeling like my period was already here at 7 dpo but it only lasted 20 minutes. i even went to the bathroom for a change and there was absolutely no blood. 8 dpo, tested positive on frer and all the dollar tests i had at 4 pm. thankfully, my boyfriend always wanted to be a father and he cried when i showed him my tests.

hope everything works out for you! goodluck!

Congrats on your pregnancy - that's amazing! :happy dance: Yes, exactly the same feeling, I was convinced I was about to start my period and there was absolutely nothing and still isn't.

I have a ClearBlue Digital test already at home, not sure it's FRER?

 

[Miss406]

Use that! It'll be strong enough by now to be picked up on the clearblue!
The ONLY symptom I had last time was heartburn at about 6dpo until I tested and it continued.

Best of luck, hoping it's positive

Did the ClearBlue last night and got a :BFN: Sooo disappointed! Should have waited until the morning like you said but got too excited and couldn't help it.

Maybe it was too early! Positive thinking Will go out and get FRER and test tomorrow morning!

 

[Miss406]

Awww... definitely a FRER! It can be frustrating to get negatives but they really are only the best possible chances of giving a positive first thing in the morning...
Get that FRER today and do it tomorrow with FMU, you're far from out yet
