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

This is the best post I've seen on here! Mind if I add my symptoms?

I believe I O'd on or around 11/3 (i got the darkest OPK that day and some EWCM and then OPKs were light again the next day). We BD'd that day as well as 11/1 and 10/29.

Also, I'm going to disneyland with my parents on 9DPO so I'm going to test then, as much as I know I shouldn't test so early.... My hubby isn't able to come with us, so I'd love to know beforehand so I could get him something from Disney as a "Guess what? We're pregnant!" sort of gift. If not, It'll have to be after.

Anyway, here goes

1 dpo: nothing really, CP was high and soft
2 dpo: I had a bit of a sore throat, and a lack of appetite. I was extremely irritable which is a bit abnormal for me. CP was still high and soft
3 dpo: I had a slight crampy feeling on my right side that came and went a few times that day, not lasting very long each time, my nipples were a bit tender, still lack of appetite and still extremely irritable. CP was VERY high and soft and definitely closed
4 dpo: creamy/sticky CM, slight nausea/stomach ache, EXTREMELY tired randomly, but then proceeded to not be able to sleep; more bathroom breaks than usual, still very irritable.
5 dpo (today): woke up with a sharp headache, at breakfast and had my coffee (I know I know, I'm trying to cut back lol) and couldn't finish it because I started feeling a bit queasy. Nothing else so far.

I have a good feeling this month, but I'm definitely trying to not get my hopes up. :D
 
I love this thread! Congrats to all the ladies who got their bfp's and good luck to everyone still in the tww!
Here are my symptoms so far:
1-4 DPO - nothing, dry cm
5 DPO - feeling slightly crampy, bbs slightly sore in sides
6 DPO - can not eat enough! So hungry constantly! Bbs still slightly sore, dry cm
7 DPO - had a streak of pink on tp when I used the bathroom. I have never spotted so that got me excited! Have a heavy feeling in my lower abdomen kind of like what I get on first day of af, Bbs very sore in tops and sides. Nipples slightly sensitive. Have urinated probably 10 times today when I typically only go about 3. Stupidly tested and no surprise it was a BFN.
8 DPO - Still sore bbs on sides and tops. No more spotting. Creamy cm. Bad spell of indigestion this evening. Cramping a bit. Super irritable! Tested again w/ Ic - bfn
9 DPO - sex with husband hurt last night! Like there wasn't enough room :blush: bbs still sore but not as bad, nipples a bit sensitive. No appetite. Lower back ache. Tested again - BFN :( starting to feel out
10 DPO- pretty much the same I've been feeling. Tested with fmu - maybe a shadow of something? Evap?
11 DPO - Sharp shooting pains below belly button. Still sore bbs. Waiting a few days to test again.
12 DPO - checked cp and it is high and closed but finger had some pinkish/red blood on it. :( Think I'm out but not sure why my cervix is still closed and high if af is starting. If I don't start fully by tomorrow I will test again.
Well I am seeing some blood when I wipe now, I am taking this as being officially out :(
Onto next month!
 
AF got me on December 1st. :( I guess that fever really did screw things up for me!

Just got a ridiculously high temp spike this morning. In conjunction with my +OPKs, CM and CP, I'm counting this as 1DPO -- so here we go! Our last natural cycle before the fertility clinic starts doing their thing!

This cycle seemed to be a really good one for me. I never get EWCM, but I had a tiny little bit of it on November 14th. Also, my OPK test line turned dark before the control line did, and that hasn't happened in a long time! It was a really fast, really strong LH surge, and I also felt ovulation pains, which I don't recall EVER feeling since we've been TTC! FXd that these are good signs!

Ovulation is marked at either 11/14 or 11/15. I'm thinking 11/14 since on the 15th is when my temperature began to rise. I don't have cross hairs from FF yet, though, so we'll see which one it thinks it is, and go from there.

1DPO -- Sore BBs already. That's usually not a problem for me, so it's odd that I have it already. I had sore/sensitive nipples for the past couple of days too, and that's also abnormal for this time of month for me.

I didn't check CM or CP. Last night before bed, CM was really dry. That's part of what makes me think that I O'd on the 14th.



2DPO -- The sore BBs are still driving me crazy. Was uncomfortable to sleep on my stomach last night. CM has become sticky.

I woke up feeling congested, like I'm coming down with bronchitis. Yuck! Lower abdomen is sore, twinges if I turn too quickly or try to lift something heavy. I'm trying to baby my abdomen so I don't accidentally unsettle an egg that's trying to stick. lol! I don't know if that'll even make a difference, but it's worth a shot right?

Update: Got SUPER tired in the middle of the day. Food and drink didn't help. I finally caved and took a 1 hour nap. Then I was still tired enough at my usual bedtime to go to sleep and stay that way til morning. Safe to say "Fatigue" is another symptom this month.


3DPO -- FF finally gave me my cross hairs, right where I knew it would.

Blood on the tissue when I blew my nose this morning.

Still sore BBs. CM has increased and is now creamy. There's enough of it to wet my underpants. Sore lower abdomen, I notice it most when I'm moving around, twisting, carrying stuff. Also it was uncomfortable to lay on my stomach last night to sleep, both because of the BBs and because of the sore abdomen.

Woke up with an ENORMOUS pimple on my lower lip. It hurt pretty badly. I had to lance it to relieve the pressure. Gross. I don't often get break-outs like that, even though I have issues with my complexion and minor break-outs all month long. This one sprang up and became ridiculous in size over night. >.>



4DPO -- BBs are less sore today, but still tender. Nipples sensitive. Slightly increased libido. LOTS of creamy white CM, enough so that it wets my underwear.

Slight fatigue, increased appetite. I'm craving carbs like crazy today. BBT shot up by over 1/2 of a degree (thats <0.5), which was quite a jump!

Had a rather vivid dream about giving birth to twins last night. Uh oh!



5DPO -- Woke up feeling sick, congested, raspy voice. Lungs feel wheezy. Definitely getting a cold or the flu. Bummer.

BBs less sore today, but still tender. Nipples still sensitive but aren't as erect as in previous days. CM is creamy with a tendency toward sticky. CP is medium, firm, can't really decipher the opening.

Cooked hamburger meat for a spaghetti sauce at dinnertime, and then smell of the meat cooking made me gag a little bit. It normally doesn't bother me, so that was a little unexpected.

Headaches after dinner.

Update: At bedtime, around 10pm, suddenly started feeling incredibly sick to my stomach. It was a little difficult to focus my eyes (I had my glasses off since I don't need them for up-close reading on my phone), so I ate a couple of tums, rolled onto my side and shut off the light. Not sure what made me feel that way. Turning off the light made the symptoms disappear pretty quickly.



6DPO -- More vivid dreams last night. Dreamt that there was a nursery room prepared for me and I was being shown as a surprise, but it was in this big drafty room and all I could think was that it was going to be very difficult to keep it warm, and that I didn't want my baby to be too cold.

Later dreamt that my dogs were stolen. One got hit by a car, the other we never saw again. It was heartbreaking! I woke up and gave them both all kinds of love this morning. :(

BBs only slightly tender now, but they feel like they're in the way all the time. Reaching forward for anything causes me to bump them and they hurt when that happens.

CM back to being creamy and copious. CP is medium, firm, closed.

Definitely sick now. I have sinus congestion, a cough, the sniffles, and headaches.

Only able to eat small amounts of food at a time or else I feel a little queasy. Probably due to being sick. Food that tasted amazing last night (specifically, a broccoli salad) tastes disgusting today at lunch.


7DPO - 9DPO -- Came down with stomach flu. Fever as high as 100.5°F, vomiting, chills, aches, etc. I'm afraid this is going to screw up any implanting that might take place over the next few days. :(

Didn't make note of any other symptoms because I was so sick. Essentially I just slept for two days straight.


10DPO -- Fever finally broke. More sleeping. Didn't check CP or CM. Temps seem to be dropping back into normal post-O ranges. Tested BFN before heading up to fam's house for thanksgiving. Crappy night of sleep thanks to sharing the bed with a 4 y/o who kicked me all night long and hogged up the whole bed. lol


11DPO -- Hormones all over the place. Alternately raging at DH for little things, or crying over random commercials on TV? So weird.

Thanksgiving. Still recovering from stomach flu, only ate small helpings of food and was utterly exhausted by 9pm. Crappy night of sleep thanks to being in a strange (horribly uncomfortable) bed, and DH's loud snoring.


12DPO -- Itchy boobs from hell! Stomach still doesn't care too much for food. Eating small snacks throughout the day instead of large meals.


13DPO -- More itchy boobs. Been slathering on lotion. Looks like I have some really dry skin though. Metallic taste in mouth after dinner. Didn't go away with rinsing or brushing. But I'm not sure if it's due to the fillings in my teeth or not.


14DPO -- Nothing new to report. CM is still creamy, temps still above coverline. BFN.


15DPO -- Temps still up. Creamy CM. Exhausted today! Can't get anything done. Want to sleep all day. BFN. AF due tomorrow morning.

Forgot to mention that today [DPO: 6] my gums are sore and red after brushing.
 
HolisticDoc -- Congrats! H&H 9mos!




As for me...

Updated my list today. Today was pretty much the same as yesterday, one or two exceptions. This TWW feels like it's dragging because my breasts are so freakin' sore. They feel like they're in the way of everything! I was shredding old bills and junk mail today and it was painful just reaching forward for the stack of things on my desk. Touching them at all causes some level of discomfort. SIGH.
 
been trying to concieve for 5 yrs now hope we have done it this month, wishing you all alot of baby dust and congrads to all the bfp

Tempted to take a test, but might wait till after Thanksgiving. What do you ladies think?!
 
Here's my symtoms so far. I'm so hoping this month is my turn! What do you all think? I'm thinking of testing tomorrow but I don't want to see a BFN.

November 15th O day
1dpo- strange craving for milk (I don't drink milk usually and I drank four glasses in one sitting)
2 dpo- sudden nausea bought
3 dpo- feeling like cold is coming, cramps on left side
4 dpo- stuffy and runny nose, sore throat, medium watery cm
5 dpo- still cold symptoms, dizziness, woke up at night to urinate, bras don't fit quite right
6 dpo- cold symptoms easing up, some acne:( slight spotting
7 dpo- cold symptoms still, no better or worse, slight spotting
8 dpo- nausea in the morning, still have cold, no spotting today
 
Alright, let's try this baby again and hopefully I get one that sticks!!

1-6 dpo nothing except tender breasts. Some drops of clear, off white liquid coming out of nipples when I squeeze but could be from last cp.

7 dpo tender breasts, skin breakout, nausea around midnight (had to keep a wastebasket near me - only lasted about an hour though).

8 dpo tender breasts, cravings for raw fruits and veggies (I am a meat, potatoes, and chips kinda gal).

9 dpo tender breasts, fatigue, bbt took a big plunge this morning. I'm hoping it's implantation time and not an early af surprise. Slight cramping including lower back pain. Little bloated. I really feel like Af is coming.

10 dpo cramping, lower back pain, boobs are less tender today. Tempature is only up .1 degree from yesterday so still pretty low. Really feel like af is coming. I hope if she is, she shows up by tomorrow so I can have a few glasses of champagne for thanksgiving! Update: started brown spotting this afternoon and still am thus evening. I think she's on her way!

11 dpo indeed, she is here :witch: Finding the silver lining: she came just in time for me to have champagne for thanksgiving :) Goin' red ladies!
