Symptoms by DPO. AF or BFP??? (please read first post)

[wifey2013]

This is a great thread! Congrats to all who got their BFPs!!

I'm not 100% of my O date, but what I'm thinking here it goes...

1dpo - nothing.

2dpo - all day nothing, some extremely light cramps at night, tired feeling in early evening with a yawn attack around 9pm.

3dpo - woke up feeling a cold coming on, runny nose, light headachey feeling - light headed, light cramps (not sure if they are more like AF cramps or gas), craving water (dry throat) even though I just finished a bottle, feeling tired at 12:30pm even though I slept about 8 hours last night - can't stop yawning, Tender breasts and nipples but only when poked, shortness of breath when getting up quickly, cramp in left leg for a few minutes, light cramping on left side, some gas (but could be from my lunch).

4dpo - waking up on and off this morning with extreme dry mouth, some weird feelings under my bellybutton - nothing painful just weird moving around, still have a bit of a runny nose but it's not as bad as yesterday, weird cramps/movement feeling in belly continuing throughout day just above pelvic bone, doesn't hurt just feels funny. Breasts very sore when I took off my bra after work, felt very heavy. Thick creamy, stretchy, cream coloured CM after going to the washroom.

5dpo - slight cramping, runny nose but nothing too bad, very dry throat and mouth at certain times of the day. Vivid dreams last night that woke me up in a very nervous state. Tender heavy boobs on sides and under, terrible back pain.

6dpo - feeling sick with an awful cold that comes and goes, sore throat, some dry mouth, gassy, terrible lower back pains, getting full very fast. Want to test even though I know I should wait. A lot of lotion like CM, creamy and cream colored. Left nipple looks wrinkly. Don't know why but I took a FRER today BFN, but obviously at 6dpo it would be…

7dpo - nothing yet aside from some vivid dreams again last night and sore BBS, maybe more symptoms will come throughout the day. Had to pee a few more times than usual this morning... once when I woke up and again before leaving the house for work and twice since I've been in the office. Light light AF like cramps, feels like she could be on her way - but it would be a week too early. STAY AWAY AF! Got super sleepy around 5pm, napped for 2 hours and had a very hard time waking up. Once I awoke I was starving, DH made me a piece of filet mignon, I ate half and felt very full then right after I was hungry again and gobbled down a string cheese. Also, before my nap I had to pee 2 times before I fell asleep and right away when I woke.

8dpo - I tested again this morning because I woke up with AF like cramps. BFN… another $10 down the drain. So far this morning, just the AF like cramps - not too strong but feels like before AF comes. Starting to feel like the witch will show her face soon. Just snapped at my dad and some tears followed - but I'm normally an emotional person, not sure if it's anything.

9dpo - Nothing until the late afternoon. Felt myself peeing a bit more and when I wiped a huge glob (yuck) of creamy cm. After that on and off very light period cramps. Tested with an IC this afternoon (very very diluted pee though) and BFN. Light cramps continue around 6:40pm and light headache. Had a hard time going #2. Bad gas and burpy.

10dpo - Woke up to nothing. Took IC this morning BFN. Slight cramping on left side when walking to my office, then AF type cramps around 10:30am. In the early AM CM was scant. No appetite all day, ate very little - usually CRAVING chocolate before AF, a spell of light headaches in the afternoon and evening. Super burpy all afternoon on an empty stomach.

11dpo - Clearblue Digital test BFN. Feeling a bit of wet CM down there and pretty tired throughout the day, but not fatigued. Appetite was back but got full very quickly - skipped breakfast. A little moody and snapped at bank teller when he made a stupid joke. AF due in a few days, still keeping hopeful and praying the witch doesn't show!! Lots of yellow watery CM in the afternoon when wiping.

12dpo - I MAY SEE A BFAINTP! Not Turning this green until I'm positive. Thought AF was coming this morning… Took a FRER and that's where I saw the BFaintP. Got a BFN with a IC.

13dpo - DIGITAL BFP "PREGNANT 1-2 WEEKS". Bleeding started today.



Unfortunately this little bean didn't stick but we are staying positive and looking forward to trying again

This is a great idea for a thread...

0-3 DPO - nothing

3PO - bbs hurting on sides, weird restless sleep

4DPO - bbs hurting more, gas

5DPO - woke up in cold sweat from horrible nightmare, sore bbs, gas, tired and emotional

6DPO - sore bbs, nipples tender, gas, tired, emotional still (cried over random TV show)

7DPO - sore bbs, nipples tender, gas, tired, emotional (cried over argument with mum)

8DPO - boobs burning, nipples throbbing, mild nausea until I ate something, so tired crashed out early, light cramps just before sleep

9DPO - boobs burning, nipples throbbing, tired enough to consider daytime nap (still considering atm), light cramps, mild nausea.


Symptoms seem promising, but had other months with symptoms like this and still had AF, so keeping fingers crossed but trying not to hope too much either...

 

[chistiana]

Wifey craving water (and headaches) were the two symptoms that gave it away when I was pg with ds so that sounds promising!

Southsidegirl your nausea also sounds very promising. Not sure about the bbs as I ve heard it can be PMS or pg related too! Do you get sore bbs normally?

 

[Mom2sam]

Hey mom2sam...i know what you mean but still 12 dpo might be early so just hold your next cycle plans for a while. 12 dpo is the earliest i ve ever tested + and 17-18dpo the latest!

I havent tested yet, been thinking if temps remain high tomorrow i might use my last ic if it drops i cant face another bfn.

New symptoms:
Lightheaded again today a few times (like i would suddenly turn my head to look at my student and everything would kind of fuzz or spin for a little while.

Also smelling... Not sure if there was any play doh around but i swear i could smell play doh all day long!

And lastly (this could work either way) i keep having very subtle and dull af type cramps. Sometimes i get them pre af sometimes not so who knows!

Your symptoms sound so promising! Hw many dpo r u nw? Hoping ur temps stay high will check in tmrw for ur test. Good lick & lots of babydust! X

 

[Mom2sam]

12dpo bfn wat a waste of £6 lol were reading up on ib last night & sounded like wat i had so got excited but nope tested today & a BFN got one frer left but not wasting it going t save for next cycle. Christina & little sesame hv u tested again yet? X

Aw I hope next month is the month for you, though if you didn't get a full af yet I wouldn't count you out.

I'm not gonna test until I'm late. AF is due on the 8th. Will test 9th or 10t. I had ZERO symptoms yesterday. Super discouraged.

Thanks hun i'm excited t try again. Thnk coz i conceived first cycle in Sept last year was thnkng myt b lucky again lol but its ok i just hope the witch shows up nw on time lol due tmrw. I salute u for ur patience & holding out to test i thnk i'm goin to try do same next cycle but dont hold me to it lol u never knw i might cave in i hv no self control wen it cums to testing but its so true BFN get me dwn too but thn so does af ths way i cn prepare myself for her arrival lol. Anyway good luck ladies i want good news by wkend frm both of u! X

ha, I actually find it a lot more relaxing to just wait. I hate bfn's before af is due... it might give an instant relief to poas addicts but for me personally it just doesn't resolve any emotions I may have anyway until either af or a bfp show up

The disappearance of symptoms could really be a symptom? Really? lol don't bring my hopes up girl! The weird thing is I don't have an excess of cm either. Which I get a few days before af... cm is also a sign of pregnancy.. I'm just tripping myself now.

 

[chistiana]

Well girls temps still up this morning (actually way up) so couldnt help testing but bfn i m pretty sure this means i m out so i m hugely disappointed as i really thought this might be our month.... Anyway expecting af on sunday.

 

[Mom2sam]

Christina u might just be one of those that a bfp shows after a missed af ur temps are still hope so thrs hope yet!

Little sesame ur so right about the aweful BFN but i cant help myself i guess coz both times previously it showed at 9dpo i'd rather knw that bit earlier i'm just weird like that lol anyway wen is af due for u? Sorry if u'v already mentioned x

Afm af due today & i can feel its going to show got the whole achey feeling before she arrives. Went to see sis last she is expecting her second & is 8 weeks now. Already has a 11 month old & after seeing my nephew i'm all the more broodier lol we wer talking about hw if it happens for me too soon we could go shopping etc tgethr & she was saying hw she already hs alot of stuff frm her first that she cn use & i was like my first is 7 i'l hv t buy everything lol! x

chistiana, did you have gas? I'm seeing a lot of people got it, but I have nothing? The water cravings are also gone today... hmmmm, I guess I just need to keep my fingers crossed I get my BFP this cycle... 10 days until I can test.

 

[southsidegirl]

hey ladies, nauseous feeling getting stronger today, but should not POAS until sunday, because usually I get a couple of days of severe cramps just before AF, and she is due monday/tuesday, as I don't want to POAS and get a BFN, to find that if only I'd waited another day, the cramps would have told me...I wouldn't get too worried about a lack of gas Wifey, I get gas a lot with PMT, and seen plenty of BFPs on here without gas mentioned...babydust everyone

 

[chistiana]

Wifey yes i wouldnt worry either... I dont remember having gas with any of my pgs. I am quite gassy now but its normal pre af.
Baby dust everyone and southsidegirl i admire your non testing strength!!

Chistiana, it's more to do with seven months of disappointments than strength, have convinced myself I am a couple of months, only to get BFNs and have AF show her ugly face within a few days.

 

[chistiana]

Well it keeps hapenning to me too and every time i swear i will not test early but i always always cave at around 9-10dpo!!!

I learned this lesson the hard way. This time I am 13dpo today, AF is due tomorrow. Not testing until I am officially late.

 

[Mom2sam]

Af has arrived bang on time. cd1 for me. Good luck ladies x

 

[chistiana]

So sorry mom2sam...lots of baby dust for this cycle!

Littlesesame for a special educator I seem to not learn my lesson in any freaking way! You ladies are truly strong! I really hope she stays well away from you hun, keep us posted!

Afm well it seems my body is playing really stupid tricks on me..had some Gouda cheese today (I just love cheese) and had to spit it out cause it just tasted nasty.

We have been TTC for almost 2 years... I often linger in the background, but thought it was time I participated...

So, here I go... Fingers crossed for a

TWW - February

1 - 7 CD No Symptoms (6CD - BD)

8 CD Massive amounts of EWCM on wiping - BD

9 CD Massive amounts of EWCM on wiping throughout day, every time I went to the toilet. Lots of white discharge in underwear

10 CD Massive amounts of EWCM on wiping - BD - Pretty sure I ovulated today, about two minutes of right groin pain.

2 dpo Massive amounts of EWCM, Cramping throughout the evening.

7 dpo nipples continue to be sore - ended up putting a sports bra on for bed, which felt better

8 dpo Sore breasts and nipples, full feeling in abdomen, like a dull ache

9 dpo breast tender and full, nipples very sore, hurting when they accidentally rub on anything, very tearful today - could cry at the drop of the hat, which I never do, usually not a softy.

10 dpo Very sore nipples, lower and mid back ache. Had a headache this morning, which I never get, only lasted for for an hour, but it was intense. Got a massive cold sore coming up on my chin, haven't had one in a about two years - usually get them when I'm stressed or run down - all this TTC must be breaking me! Lol

11 dpo Really achy mid back, sore nipples, breasts seem massive, getting indentation marks from my bra!? Lower abdomen feels full, quite gassy - a little bloated. Incredibly tearful, which I never am, have cried twice today, for the most stupid reasons. Loads of creamy discharge.

12 dpo Ongoing breast soreness, nipples sensitive, had a terrible coughing fit that was so bad, I ended up vomiting, which I've never had before. Ongoing creamy discharge.

13 dpo Seriously vivid dream last night, woke up exhausted. Breast very sore, nipples really sensitive, I think my Montgomery tubules are whiter, and there appears to more, but then, who counts them? lol Probably just my imagination. Been yawning since I got home from work, which my DH commented on. Ongoing creamy discharge, having to wear panty liners now.
