For me I don't get af symptoms till 3-5 days before af... And 7dpo is pretty early for preggo symptoms too... So it's hard for me to say what's normal for you. But my humble opinion is that your mind is working you up.. I do it to myself and make symptoms happen... Maybe a hot bath and some good sleep? I am 10 dpo and put myself through the same thing!

Looks like we are on same cycle. I am on 8 DPO today. I have not used OPK's this cycle either, actually the last few cycles b/c we were taking a break. I would still know in my head what days we should try. It was hard to just let go and take a break actually. I quit charting BBT and using OPK's. The months I did use OPK's, I ovulated same cycle day every month. Unless its changed then I kinda know. Im getting ready to order some though just to see. This month marks 1 year we have been TTC since we miscarried. This cycle feels different to me as well. My breasts are extremely more tender/sore to touch. I normally sleep on my stomach but I cant right now. I do have lower back ache, runny nose, dry mouth, clumpy/thick CM like you described. It was crazy reading your post b/c thats where I am also! haha. I have not tested yet though. I am going to wait until the 19th I believe. AF is due around 18-19 for me, pretty dead on to yours. Good Luck!!!!

Sorry the post would not submit and then it did 3 times!

Thanks for the responses Ladies. I should say that I made a mistake with how many dpo i am. I was actually about 8 dpo when I wrote this question, today I am about 9 dpo give or take a day of course. So Erica, it does look like we are on the same track haha! I am not having sore bb's at all however they are giving me sharp pains and aches. I do not have sore breasts with af either but I did get sore bb's when I was pregnant before, that one ended in m/c. Sorry to hear of your m/c Erica :( so hard to go through. I do have a runny nose like you as well. As of today I am having a painful tugging/pinching feeling that runs from my belly button down through my vagina. I have had this feeling once before when I was miscarrying and I also have had mild Endo in past but have not had this pain any other time other than when I had m/c. Have you had anything like that this before Erica? Thx so much for your response and I will keep you in my thoughts Erica! Hugs to you :)

First I am sorry to hear of your m/c as well. It was very hard to go through. I had a pulling feeling last night laying in bed. It caught me off guard. I have a feeling AF is going to come. Last night I felt so sick. I felt hot and clammy. I had to have a d&c (unrealted to m/c) in 2009. He checked me then to see if I had Endo b/c thats what dr thought and I did not. So today you are 10 DPO right? I am on 9 so a day behind you. I hope all turns out with you. My breasts have been so stinking sore its unreal! Lots of baby dust!

It is so hard when you are feeling like your af is on her way and you still have to wait to poas. Today I am either 9-10dpo and I still feel like af is on her way. I have a headache today a bit fatigued but no other symptoms today really. Well actually for about 2 hours after earring breakfast today I was a bit nauseous. You said you have really sore breasts? I certainly do not, so I feel like that is a great sign for you!! Do you normally have this symptom before af arrives? Jeeze I hope this is an indication of a BFP for you! Thanks again for reading my posts on this question, I really appreciate it as I am a but neurotic at the moment with all of this haha! Big wishes for you :)

I normally do have sore bb's but it seems like this time I have have it longer and more painful. My daughter elbowed me last night and I about flew up off the couch. She didnt mean to and then she felt bad (shes 5) but oh my goodness! lol. I am crampy today, just alittle, not to bad. Its more of a soreness feeling. Normally I always have cramps on my left side. This month its about in the middle and on both sides, more so on right. Which is weird b/c my right side is the side I have the fallopian tube blocked and normally I dont have any cramping. I feel so hopeful but AF will probably take it away! Do you know when you will test? You waiting it out too? I have spent so much money on tests between OPK's and HPT's. I dont want to go waste any money until I am certain AF is late. Good Luck!

Wow! It is certainly looking hopeful for you I dare say! You are so strong to wait until a missed period to test. Evidently I am not as strong, as I have been testing every morning for about a week now..terrible I know! Of course I had a BFN this morning. I read there is still around a 50-60% chance to receive a false negative testing today with the internet cheapie dip stick. However, I really do feel that I did not conceive this cycle. I am usually a very optimistic person as well as my Husband but after 3 years and nothing to show for it I am beginning to feel a little hopeless. I was told my whole life that I would not be able to have a child due to my Crohn's/Colitis disease and my Endo. It was also discovered last year by a fertility Doctor that I produce very immature eggs and do not ovulate every month as every month my cycle length varies greatly, anywhere from 25 day cycles up to 50 day cycles.You said you have a blocked tube, is it from scar tissue? Fingers crossed for you!
