Sounding good Natalie & Babyhopes

Thanks Saraendepity! I hope you get that this month!

As for me, my boobs are definitely fuller and slightly sore occasionally, but this could also be AF related. Thank God I'm down to a 1ww!!!

I have read the whole thing! Go me! Thanks to all ladies who have contributed! This thread keeps me sane(er).
I have a question and I didn't see anyone list it as a "symptom". I am 11-12 dpo and keep getting the hiccups!! 4-5 rounds a day for the last 4 days or so and I never get the hiccups. Maybe I'm just crazy, but as far as my typical symptom spotting goes, this one is a weirdie. I know, I'll know one way or another in 3 days or so, but if anyone else has had this and got the magic BFP I would love to know! Thanks.

Hey ladies I am back again. Hopefully this is lucky month 14. I am 5dpo today but I have been having cramping in my tummy since the latter part of 3dpo. Im trying to ignore it. FF will probably give me crosshairs when I have 2 more higher temps.

Anyone else have cramping about 4/5dpo and it turned into a BFP?

Thanks for sharing girls!! Wow, such great information from all of you lovely ladies on this site!

I have been having some slight cramps, a little naseous (but i am wondering if this might be due to my acid reflux) , feeling bloated (wondering if my upcoming period is causing this), boobs do seem a bit bigger, it seems like i have been having more runny CM the last few days, been having to go pee alot more than usual too.

I will be doing a pregnancy test on 05/31/06 with the 5 day early test, so we will see. I am skeptical because I am wondering if some of these symptoms are just in my head or if it is normal PMS symptoms??? Wish me luck!!!

Thanks,

Hi ladies hope you don't mind me popping by, just thought I'd share my symptoms with you before I forget if it helps!

4/5dpo - lots of lotiony/creamy CM then it stopped after 5dpo
8dpo - laid in bed very early hours but awake i felt a tugging sensation on the front wall of my uterus like a little string, very gentle and I only remember it lasting a couple of minutes as I fell asleep. All day that day I had a twinge type pain behind my belly button and then by the end of that day I had extremely sore bb's all down the front of my chest, my bb's, armpits, and all down my abdo felt like I'd done tons of crunches. This started to fade over the course of 3 days to 11dpo.
10dpo - very faint but no more symptoms
11dpo - confirmed by digi "Pregnant 1-2" again no symptoms.

That's pretty much it until about 14dpo when I had some cramping pains (which continued til about 8 weeks on and off) and from 14dpo I had tons of watery CM that has continued throughout.

good luck to everyone! xx

Hello all, I'm very new to this but absolutely love reading everyone's threads and comparing symptons to my own! I am 6dpo on cycle 1 TTC and definitely feel different to last month but I am wondering if that's just because I've been reading everyone's symptons I have sympathy symptons!!!
I have tight/heavy feeling in my uterus and keep getting twinges, no CM, wee is yellow and smelly even though I'm drinking loads of water and boobs seem to have grown!
I was on the implant for 4 and a half years and have only have about 4 af's since it was taken out this year but cycle has been a very consistant 28 days with regular flow, only tend to get moody before she comes and I'm defo that recently!!
I was gonna do a test at 10 dpo, don't think I can wait til 14 dpo!!

6dpo more intense cramping and temp dip. Lowest since ovulation. Probably all means squat!

Hi MrsKCBrown!
I just checked your chart. Are you certain you ovulated? I don't see a definite biphasic pattern on the chart. Perhaps the cramping indicates you might be about to O?
One of my coworkers has been going through months of IUI and it seems to have helped that they go in to the Dr for a blood test to confirm that she's definitely ovulated. She was having trouble pinpointing the day. Have you tried that?

Good luck!

I have done that before. Im not sure why my OPK would be positive but I didnt ovulate. Its weird. I have never not ovulated? Oh well maybe you are right. I had my ovulation pains as I usually do every month along with the + test. I give up! Also FF was wrong on my O date last month. I O'd on cd 19 and they had me on cd 15. Im starting to think they are crappy.

Ugghh, I just had to add that my back has been starting to hurt the last few days, I am not sure if this is a symptom or not, but time will tell!

3dpo-same as 2dpo with fatigue
4dpo- same minus increased sex drive
5dpo-bloated, cramps, sore (.)(.),gassy
6dpo-same as above but cm was creamy with white "clumps"
7dpo-"pinchy" cramps, sore (.)(.), extra thick creamy cm with "clumps"

10dpo-fatigue, super sore(.)(.), nose bleed in am, stabbing/pinching pain on left side.

Wannabeprego- good luck testing on 5/31! First Response has a 6 day sooner test...

 

[wannabeprego]

Hoping, Thanks so much for the luck! I will have to go check out the 6 day one!!!

 

[Hann79]

Hoping, Thanks so much for the luck! I will have to go check out the 6 day one!!!

Hey, don't panic to much if you get a negative on any early response. I took them alland they were all negative, but look at my ticker...... I was!! Good luck xxx

 

[wannabeprego]

Thanks for the great advice Hann79!!! I am going to try to stay positive until either comes or test after my missed , if the early HPT's show a negative, to give it enough time to find out for sure!

Around the time AF was due, my most unusual symptom was having way too much saliva in my mouth and actually waking up coughing from it, feeling like I was about to choke! (Apparently that's a common sign of pregnancy, but I'd never heard of it before.)

Later that day I tested at work and sure enough, a faint BFP.

I tried to ignore other symptoms because they could have been PMS, and I didn't want to get my hopes up, but THAT made me think something was up. (And it was!)

 

[Hopin&Prayin]

Congratulations... I'm in holding pattern waiting in 3 days to see if she shows GRRRR

I've had every textbook symptom too... Oh I hope this is it and this one is super sticky!!

 

[imace]

Ok so maybe it's all in my head but here is what's going on with me...

Everything makes me feel sick. The thought of food, or even walking into my kitchen... -gag-
I am literally shattered. LO and I didn't get out of bed till 1, was tired all day then I napped from 7 till 9, and I'm still ready for bed!
Aches, on and off all day for the last few days.

Sound like a bug? Or maybe the sign of something to come?
