Hi there,

Im new on here-have posted a few times but only just started actively TTC. I think I may have ovulated around christmas day/boxing day and since then have been bloated and gassy, (could be too much crimbo food!) and then yesterday noticed that I really didnt fancy drinking coffee, and I usually drink about 3 cups a day. Feel a bit sicky and really tired, my boobs are very slightly sore and also have been really restless the last two nights in bed. Havent been peeing more but did have to go in the early hours the last two nights. Ive only just come off the pill and had a really light period which started on 13th dec and lasted a week and a half. So not sure when to test, maybe around 10th Jan? Anyway this is a great thread and I could spend hours on here symptom spotting! Good luck to you all xxx

so here are my symptons (better late than never ):

Up until the day af was due the only symptons I had were:

sensitive teeth
all i wanted to eat was onion rings (dont particularly like them....!)
usually my boobs start hurting from ov to af however they didn't start hurting until about a week later and BOY DO THEY HURT!

the few days after af the golden oldies started kicking in:

feeling sick
tired
waking up quite early
slight nose bleeds

Anyway girls, good luck for ur TTC journey

xx

Symptoms,
Muzzy head, Swollen tummy, cramp in legs and feet, feeling yucky with no get up and go! increased CM, dizzy spells, feeling sick, feeling heavy down below, aching back which u cant get rid off.. needed the loo all the time..
Basically all the early symptons you can get!

Can anyone explain what spotting means? I mean, is it only spotting if it is actual spots of blood? I had a v light bleed (only when I wiped) yesterday (day 24 11 dpo) and not sure if I should assume if is the start of AF or cld be implantation bledding.

hiiii! i'm new to this website. i actually have been looking for the past few days and decided to sign up this morning. but i could sure use some help. i've been feeling sick to my stomach..but i never throw up..my bbs seem to be swollen..i run to the bathroom to pee at least 8-11 times a day..i have been getting dizzy and then afterwards i get a headache..1 week and 5 days after i had sex i started bleeding but it wasn't like a normal period for me it was super light and it started of pinkish then turned a burnt red color...with a normal period i'm usually a heavier flow....could i be pregnant?

 

[Christinabby]

oh i forgot to mention i get tired for no reason at all. i will go to bed about 12 or so and wake up at about 9 or 10...thats alot of sleep and some days i still have to take a nap during the day!!! i have had excessive saliva...and my veins seem like they are starting to show more all over. every now and again i get these sharp pains in my bbs but then they go away..

10dpo - just kinda knew, but didn't say anything in case I was wrong
11dpo - really tired, moody, dh trying it on in the bedroom and I didn't want him anywhere near me. He touched my nipple and I screamed!!!!!

Tried setting this up the best way I could, but somehow I still feel its confusing... hopefully this is somewhat helpful to some of you fellow symptom spotters!

Lots of baby dust, and wishing you all a speedy 2009!

CD 29, 13 dpo here. Fuller heavier boobs, heavy feeling in the uterine area, c-section scar is bugging me, nipples are a bit browner, areolas are larger, headaches, lack of CM (normally wet there before AF), odd cramps. Tired more, blew my nose and there was a bit of blood.

AF due basically within 48 hours. Odd feeling, if you know what I mean.
