Question

Emotionally drained by the tww!!!!

The wait to find out if I'm pregnant this month is driving me mad! I'm 9dpo and have swollen tender breasts and feeling bit tired, acne break out, achy legs and general tiredness. No implantation bleeding yet and no noticeable cm. it's not really dry or anything but definitely no lotion or creamy cm like some ladies seem to have! I was feeling very hopeful till yesterday but today I'm just scared I'm building up my hopes only to get my period and feel depressed again! This whole process is so emotionally draining!!! Help! Any advice welcome!

No implantation bleeding is very normal. Only about 25% of woman will experience implantation bleeding so don't worry about that. Also every woman is different so dont worry about CM either. Mine was watery when i got my BFP. Try wait until you miss your period to test.

If it makes ya feel better, my cm stayed the same as it always is in the TWW, boobs never got sore, wasn't more tired than usual, no nausea etc and no IB for all 3 of my pregs. My 3rd preg I had spotting start a cpl days after a BFP, that ended as a CP a cpl days later, so that wasn't IB either. I really wouldn't worry too much about symptoms u have or dont have, its very different for each woman and usually each pregnancy that woman has. There's nothing wrong with a little hope, just be realistic about it...it could potentially be a long journey for u and u def dont wanna be crying and depressed every month. I find planning out my next cycle and what I can do differently, helps me swallow the BFN's a little easier.
Good luck! =))

Thank you both! I feel better now! I forced myself to get some exercise, just a brisk walk and I'm feeling happier and more upbeat in general. Hopefully the journey to a bfp will be short! Good luck to you both and baby dust!
