The Big Thread of Early Pregnancy Symptoms

[mrskcbrown]

@want2bmommy: I hope this is it for you. I can understand how hard it is being so late but getting BFN! Have you ever been this late?

I am just hoping for a BFP myself. I am about 7 dpo, although my ticker says 4, its off a bit. I hate symptom spotting but I had sore bb's last week and this week but AF isnt due until next week. Also creamy CM, and some insomnia but who knows my mind could be playing tricks on me???

no never EVER been this late... thing is 3 weeks late for af would put me at 7 weeks pregnant......

surely a hpt would be positive by now if i was????

So, I too am new to this whole forum thing. I never thought I needed to be cause I have a bunch of kids already. Who thought I would want more?

So, my man and I decided we wanted one more, to get all of our babymaking out the way before we are 30 (I will be 29 next month) and so we began....

I thought that since it has always been relatively easy to have kids for me, I would let you know how I did it this time:

We began as soon as my period was over. It usually last between 5 and 7 days for me (ridiculous, I know), so it was important to begin right away.

It happened on the first try. Basically, (it's gonna be a little graphic) we had sex every night, as opposed to the every other night they usually recommend. And we did it at night before bed. And to keep it fun, we did different positions every time, but always ended up with him on top to get as much "goodness" in there as possible. And then it was time for bed, making sure everything stayed up in there.

On 7 dpo I was feeling sick. I had some wine the night before, and it usually never makes me feel bad after. I slept all day long and didn't eat much.

On 8 dpo I saw some serious veins on my right breast. This is unusual cause it has never happened before in any other pregnancy.

On 11 dpo I woke up with a sore throat and stuffy nose. Also I had a really horrid nights sleep, waking up at 4 am.

I went to Walgreens and bought a test, and there was just the faintest line. So faint, it makes you wonder if it's real. According to the directions, any color means YES. Just to be sure, I went back and got a digital one so there was no confusion. Still a go!

So, pretty much, it's possible, so long as you and "Daddy" are on the same page, and you research what the best options for you are, and you keep in tune with your body.

Baby dust to all!!

@Midamami: Congrats on your BFP! I was reading your story and found it very helpful. I also found it funny that you call your hubby, "Daddy", LOL. I call my hubby "daddy" as well (during those moments). We are hoping for our BFP this month, but we can only try every other day due to DH's counts and morphology. Happy for you!

seeing as i have been using these early pregnancy symptom forums for about 12 months now, i think i should give a little back too....!

here are my symptoms
sore boobs from ov to now (i alsways get sore boobs through the TWW - yes two whole weeks of sore booobs)

Temp dip on day 5dpo
Frequent weeing from day 4dpo onwards
The odd cramp starting from about day 7dpo
nausea on and off throughout the last few days before AF due
heartburn 5 and 6DPO

I started taking agnus castus from about Ovulation day onwards and Vitamin B tablets - they are two things i did different this time

Are you able to see a DR to see what the issue is? Maybe they can do a blood test? I truly hope it all works out!

@Emzdreamgirl: Congrats on your BFP! I have had sore bb's since ovulation and that is unusal for me because I usually get them 3-4 days in advance of AF. Ive also had a tiny bit of the cramping. Also blood in my nose the last 3-4 days...hmmm? Maybe this is it, or maybe its in my mind...... Thanks for sharing!

No that isnt how it works. Children are a blessing anyway that they get here. Pray that their relationship gets better for the health of their child. Dont be sad, I truly believe that your day and my day is coming. Gotta keep the attitude positive, because negative attitudes poison your body! GL to you!

Of course AF could always be really out of whack, but me and OH are sure we scored. were hoping at least. Well here are my symptoms. I didn't keep track of the days as we were doing NTNP. In order of appearance: I noticed that I started sleeping more and more. OH is usually the one falling asleep and I stay awake. The day AF was due achy boobs. They still are just on the sides. Which is way unusual they usually ache a few days before she shows up. I always know when AF is on her way CP is always super low letting me know. Cp is high now. The morning after 5am we tested and it was a negative. I was checking online and realized it could have been false because took off the foil wrapper and left it their for about 8hours before using the test, silly me. Online it said doing that even for 5mins can cause a false negative. So were holding off til Monday just incase. Oh I forgot extreme hunger.

To sum all I had was tiredness, hunger, achy boobs, peeing like a marathon.

I forgot to say AF was supposed to arrive on the 6th making her 4 days late. yes yes yes.
I thought of something else yesterday I felt pain like a little cramping but more like pulling down there. and also yesterday and the day before I felt wet like i was dripping drove me mad kept running to the bathroom to see if she had came but nothing.

[mrskcbrown]

@want2bmommy: I hope your DR appt goes well! I also hope it ends in a BFP as well.

Tested, BFN. Tested last night...I goofed it up and overloaded the stick and therefore it malfunctioned and did not work at all.Although this morning had positive result. But I don't trust it after the 2min mark. So Tested BFN at 5am. this time i did piac and still BFN no period and still getting the pulling pains, sore boobs, and tired. maybe I ovulated late and thus for, I'm testing early.....I dont know.
