Two week wait finally

[JMO2]

Hi everyone.
I haven't posted for a bit, not much to update. We definitely tried to put more effort in bd-ing at least every other day for the last week and a half to two weeks. I signed up at fertility friend and I started temping. It said I ovulated a few days ago, and I have been feeling cramps here and there the last couple of days.. Nothing major but I did notice it, so I'm assuming that's when I was ovulating..?... Now I guess I'm in the two week wait and 3 dpo, my question to everyone, for those of you that have been pregnant before, did any of you have NO symptoms until your missed period? I feel like looking around online it seems like there are a lot of people that feel things right away, or that "just know". My other question is when you did start feeling symptoms, were they very noticeable? This is our 4th month ttc. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I hope all is well with everyone and that you all are having a great holiday season!

Baby dust!

Thanks for any comments!

Prefacing this with I haven't been pregnant before, but I have a good friend who, after trying for 2 years, the cycle she got pregnant assumed it hadn't taken because she felt absolutely nothing. Another friend of mine didn't know until a few months along (she had light bleeding throughout during the times she should have gotten periods and fairly 'normal' PMS symptoms).* I don't think anyone can ever count themselves out based on symptoms until AF shows up/there's a negative test. Also, 3dpo is still SUPER early. Most of the time, symptoms won't show up until after implantation, anywhere from 5-12 dpo. Your cramping could have been something like a very early implantation, but what you're usually feeling at that point are the effects of rising progesterone after ovulation, which can include mild cramps. That doesn't mean you couldn't end up with a BFP this cycle... and you know best what's unusual for you. Wishing you lots of sticky baby dust!

*Yes, I do know a LOT of people around me who are/have been pregnant recently! I'm hoping some of their luck will finally rub off on me after 2 years... ;-)
