Symptom spotters

[precious1]

Hi ladies,

I just wanted to post on TTC because when I first joined I had so many questions, worries and concerns and never heard back from the ladies with BFP after the BFP post.

Very brief history:
My DB and I have been ttc for almost 3yrs. The longest 3 years EVER!!!! One ectopic and one miscarrage. The rest We went to a fertility specialist, but the cost with my then insurance was too high, so we decided to stop worrying about OV and cm and just had fun....(ironically now I have a job that covers infertility treatments)

Obviously, I FINALLY got my BFP 2 days ago and no cramping or bleeding thus far.

I have pretty regular AF's. I can always count on it being a few days early or a few days late....LOL! This time last year, my periods were around the 29th. They can be terrible!. From cramping until I passout; to bleeding until I think I may need a transfusion. Dr. concerns endometreosis, PCOS, scarring cysts, etc

Pre AF symptoms: lethargy, sore boobs, slight abdominal cramping and gurgling in my uterus. Increased BM's and bloating.

Pre BFP symptoms: the EXACT same things as AF and started on time, about 4 days prior. The only 5 things that were different are as follows:
- past wk I had to(and still do) pee every 2 hours
- 1 week increased appetite
- 5 days ago crazy ass dreams about pregnacies
- 3 days ago hot flashes, being told I look pale and a miscellaneous nose bleed.

The only thing that made me test were the dreams. The other times I was pregnant, I always dreamt about pregnancies. Other wise I thought I was being a fatty fat fat.....


Although I know its hard not to, but symptom spotting is not always the key. It just drives us crazy!!! Just relax and have fun with your mate. I personally feel like all that stressing about on time did not help at all.

Good luck ladies and lots of to you all!!!

Congrats!! And yep, symptoms this early don't mean a thing. You can see tons of women with all the same symptoms thinking it's pregnancy and some will get a BFP but others will not. I've been pregnant 3 times and felt just the same until b/t 5-6 weeks preg...and that's when the symptoms really hit. Best wishes for a H&H 9 months.

I just read it! Dont stress yourself out, even though I know it's hard not too! 10dpo can still read bfn. I would definately wait until Monday, but dont read too much into the symptoms. Everything seems to be amplified during that 2ww........

to you Hun!!!
