Question: i was just curious to what all you are feeling this month? what kind of symptoms you're all having around 10dpo. i have virtually none. i usually have some af type cramping throughout the 2ww and this month none. and my boobs are so sore. (something i never get). but that's all. anyone else lacking symptoms?? or having any different from "normal"? i tested yesterday at 9dpo( early i know LOL!!) i just couldn't resist- but bfn!!!! of course!
?

Answer: Hi Amy, I am 9 dpo today. I am going to test on Sunday or Monday if I don't start spotting before then (my luteal phases are on the shorter side). I keep thinking that I am having 'new' symptoms, but then I go back and check previous months on ff and I seem to have similar symptoms in previous cycles too. My bbs are bigger and somewhat sore, I am a bit nauseated, I have a slight headache off and on, and cramps off and on, oh and my skin looks disgusting! Plus, beginning last night, I have become semi-moody, lol! BUT, like I said, I seem to have some or all of these symptoms every cycle. So, who knows! I'd love some company in the next few days, so feel free to obsess away! =
Answer: last spotting april 29 and 30 ..BD may 3 and spotting .....april 9...april 12....I have a 27 day cycle for the past 2 mths ...could I be? = = =
Answer: I am either 7 or 8 dpo. Had a IUI last Thursday. I noticed this morning that my nimples are really sensitive/sore but my boobs don't hurt. I was wondering if the sore nipples could be an indication. This 2ww is killing me. GL everybody. =
Answer: Sore nipples could definitely be a symptom! So, I am going crazy. I bought a new bra yesterday (bad timing) - because now my nipples are burning a bit, which would ordinarily be a sign, but I can't decide whether it is because of the bra or because of something better...argh! =
Answer: Irregularfrustration- That is so frustrating. Is your skin really sensitive normally? Have you ever reacted that way before to a new bra? Lets hope it is a sign. How many dpo are you?
=
Answer: irregular - just answered my own question. When are you going to test? What is a luteal phase? My cycle last month was 23 days but it is normally 24-26 days so I don't know when I should test... I am on day 21 today. I have not bought any tests - don't want to tempt myself! =
Answer: My bbs normally get sensitive prior to AF so really, even if they aren't sore because of the bra, then it could just be because AF is due soon. Who knows! The luteal phase is the second half of your cycle - from the day after you ovulate to the day before you get your AF. Do you know when you ovulated? If you do, you should try to wait at least 12 days after before testing, but even that could be too soon. If don't, I'd try to hold out until at least day 24 before testing this cycle. Do you have any other symptoms? =
Answer: irregular - I am on my first round of clomid and had my first intra uterine insemination last Thursday... I have been ttc for a long time (long story). I had weird cramping on Sunday and I have never cramped between periods - but that could have been from the IUI or something I guess?? So really no other symptoms. My best friend just told me to buy one of those early detection tests - but from everything I have read on here I think I will just wait unitl at least next Wed (if possible) It really sucks that the symptoms of pg are so similar to the beginning of af! =
Answer: Tell me about it - wouldn't it be much better if we could just wait two days after ov and then just wake up knowing... =
Answer: hey girls. thanks for responding. i love reading everyone's symptoms. and yes i would LOVE some company in this 2ww. i need it!!
IRREGULAR- your symptoms do sound awesome and promising, and i sure hope that they are REAL this time and not some sick joke your body is playing on you. i know the feeling. every month i get the same with something new added in for more fun to obsess over. so i google the hell out of it, always to find "that can be a early pregnancy sign" so i get my hopes up only to be devastated when af arrives. i hate this!!!! i'd blame those burning nipples on "something good" definitely not on the bra or ordinary symptoms. yes i'm optimistic and pulling for you!! and i too would love some company this week. so i can't wait to hear more on what's going on each day. let's go get those bfp this month!!!! good luck
WANT- i wish i could be of more help about the spotting. i know it can be a symptom, especially around implantation. otherwise i've heared it could be from an inflamed cervix or other reproductive problems. if it continues maybe you should get it checked out. but i'm keeping my fingers crossed that it's absolutely positively pregnancy related. good luck!!!
HOPE- i hope this is your month. i understand the ttc for a long time. i've been trying for 5 years. i do have 2 boys. one is 8 and the other is 6. but since then i can't get pregnant for the life of me. ugh!!! i's also wait for day 24. though i'm a chronic early tester it's too hard seeing negatives over and over, just to end up with af. so if you can stay strong, do so!!! let's hope those sore nipples and crampong are all GREAT signs and you'll finally get that bfp!!!
as for me. FF had said that i o'd on cd17 and i didn't agree with it so i overrode it to cd15. but after asking people and doing some more checking i realized they were probably right and so that put's me back at 9dpo. i had a bad temp dip yesterday which i'm hoping is ID and not the start of the end. my boobs are still swelled and tender, but today i started getting cramps. i was so mad after not getting them all month i was feeling so good. so that sucks. i've also been feeling so feverish the last couple days also. but that's all for me on symptoms. it's been a pretty quiet month. so we shall see............ good luck everyone i can't wait to hear more.......... talk to ya soon!!!! =
Answer: Good morning ladies. I just had my second acupuncture appointment. I really hope that it helps! So when I went home yesterday, I changed into a sports bra and my nipples still burned. But, they aren't as sore this morning so now I am a bit worried...I have some cramping now too (started last night) - but again, could just be AF giving me a head's up that she's on her way...I am going to try to stay positive though! Amy - the dip sounds REALLY promising! Loads of baby dust! =
Answer: Hi Amy =). I am 8dpo roughly and these are my "symptoms" so far: gassy, increased appetite, dizziness, cramping, swollen breasts and puffy nipples. This could all be pre-af stuff too though...this tww business really bites!...lol =
Answer: good afternoon everyone!!! i hope all is well with each and everyone of you. sending major pregnancy vibes your way!!!!!!!! i have know idea what's going on with me now. i'm only 10dpo with a luetal phase of 14-16days and today my temp took a complete nosedive again, below the coverline this time. i can't believe this!!!! i'm pretty certain my body has failed me yet again. (but that's so early for such a dive) but i'm just crazy and hopeful enough to believe that i'm just going to be one of those woman whose chart is all chaotic, but still ends up with a bfp!!! yeah denial works well at this point! LOL!!!!.............................
IRREGULAR- i've heared something mentioned before about accupunture and fertility, but i don't know much about it. what exactly is it supposed to do? whatever it does, i sure hope it works for you. i'm glad your staying positive, that's all we can do right? i'm wishing you truckloads of baby dust as well and forbidding AF to visit you!!!- oh how i wish i had that power ;) - best wishes!!!............................
MELISSA- hello! yes i agree with you this 2ww just plain sucks!!!! LOL - why oh why does all the symptoms have to be the same as AF????? are all these symptoms typical for you every month? are any of them out of the ordinary? they do sound promising, i must say!!!! :) and this month they BETTER be the real deal!! . I personally think i'd lose all control of my bowels if i ever get the privilege of beholding 2 lines on a preg test. LOL!!! but i sure would be ecstatic if you and others finally get your bfp's. i'm wishing you luck, and a load of symptoms. keep me posted!!! =
Answer: Well ladies I lost my mind and tested this morning - bfn of course. I am not even 10dpo only on cycle day 21. Trying to convince myself that seeing a negative now will help me deal with getting af next week... I know I sound negative but I just worry that if I am positive the devastation will be too much when af shows. My nipples are still feeling weird and sensitive boobs are not sore yet which they normally would be approx 5-7 days out from af. I think my mind is just looking for anything I want so badly to be pregnant. I started ttc back in 2001 during my first marriage which lasted 9 years and actually began its demise in the hospital while watching my sister in law have here 4th child and hearing my husband all of a sudden say he did not know if he wanted children... Oh well enough of my whining. Everyone's symptoms sound promising. We need some bfp's to keep our spirits up. Babydust to all of you! Thanks for everyones support! =
Answer: Hi Amy..the one symptom that seems out of the ordinary for me is the dizziness, or lightheadedness.Its this weird detached feeling I get. I thought maybe I need to eat more or drink more water, but it still seems to be there even when I have addressed those things. The swelling breasts thing is a little new. It doesn't feel like pre-af pain and heaviness. They just feel swollen and more filled out. So we will see! =) =
