This month is our very first attempt TTC so we are very anxious (ok more so me than my husban :P) Do you feel as though you are having any very early pregancy symptoms yet?

Reply by Hope2bpreg » May. 19, 2012 11:49pm Hey- this is my first time TTC too. The wait is killing me. I took a HPT last night and it was BFN. I was only 7dpo I think. Too early but depressing nonetheless! I'm having lots of symptoms- had full heavy cramping every day since 2dpo- especially at night. Also tender breasts. Possible backache. And gas- from 2dpo (sorry tmi!) I was thinking of starting to test possibly on Monday 5/21 (9 DPO) but I don't want to get depressed. His many days DPO are you? Any symptoms?

Reply by eande1203 » May. 20, 2012 9:05am Hope2bpreg - Hi! :) I beleive I'm only 5 DPO (It took me a lot of research to figure out the actual science behind the TTC thing ha!) I BELEIVE I have a few symptoms but it's sometimes hard to tell because I don't want to over-exaggerate and set myself up for disappointment. This sort of made me feel a little crazy but 3 days after intercourse I felt sick to my stomach ALL DAY! Th only reason why it stood out to me so much is because I am NEVER sick to my stomach. I never actually vomited just irritating nausea all day. I also have gas (that is abnormal for me as well) 3 days after intercourse I also had mild cramping. I don't have tender or swollen breasts and I don't feel like i'm any more tired than usual. I want to test as early as possible but i totally agree with you, i don't want to be disappointed either. Kathleen1994 - Thank you for the well wishes! :) Report	eande1203 Posts: 21

Reply by Mrstruth » May. 20, 2012 9:18am eand hello and yes I am glad you came aboard how are you feeling today Hope I am 5dpo and having symptoms such as dull cramps and pressure,fatigue,back and leg pain, full bbs and tender nipples and gassy. I think you should test Tues because most of the time you get implantation on 9dpo so just to be sureÂ Congrats Kathleen and thanks for sending us dustÂ Report	Mrstruth Posts: 61

Reply by eande1203 » May. 20, 2012 12:35pm Mrstruth - Hi :) I'm feeling well, thank you. How are you feeling? Thank you for the warm welcome, I'm REALLY enjoying this website, helps me feel a little more at ease. It seems like you and I are having the majority of the same symptom except my breast aren't swollen or tender : / Will you be testing Tuesday as well? 3 days after intercourse I had quite noticible cramps (which definitely caught me off guard) but now they are just every so often and are very very dull. Some of my symptoms are hard to distinguish because, again, i don't want to make something out of nothing should i not be pregnant yet but a lot of the symptoms i've read about are my normal symptoms about 7-10 days before i due to start my period. I don't appear to have implantation bleeding, have you noticed any? (i read not all women will expierence that) Report	eande1203 Posts: 21

Reply by Mrstruth » May. 20, 2012 1:13pm Even with the five pregnancies I have had I have ever experienced implantation bleeding, and no I am not having any I am going to test Friday. Or sat I am o ly 5dpo. I am having pressure, twinges, pulling feeling of the pelvic and gassy and I never have this before or during AF so it is abnormal for me Report	Mrstruth Posts: 61

Reply by eande1203 » May. 20, 2012 4:55pm I'm pretty sure i will be testing the same time you do considering you and i are the same DPO. Obviously the TWW is killing me but I also don't want to test too early to disappoint myself. My cramps stand out to me becaue i never get cramps ahead of my period, i ALWAYS get them the very first day of my period and then as the day go on (of course) they subside. If you don't mind my asking, were your previous pregnancy with little to no complications? Since you already have children, before you took a test with any of your pregnancy's, did you every just "feel" or "know" you were pregnant? Report	eande1203 Posts: 21

Reply by emyyjunito » May. 20, 2012 7:01pm Hi ladies! So glad I came across this topic! I am currently 5 DPO and also going nuts with this TWW. I am planning on testing this Friday since I have read a few forums where some women have had at 9 DPO. My wretched is due to hopefully NOT arrive on 5/29. DH and I have been trying since we our loss on 8/11/11. We received the green light from our doctor about a month after and have been trying since but all to no avail. BUT, for some reason this time I truly FEEL this is it!! These have been my symptoms so far: Extreme fatigue; very bloated; heavy and full breasts; lots of creamy white CM; mild to faint cramps in the front and lower back; I was feeling a heavy pressure sensation near my pubic bone area during 2-3 DPO; lack of appetite (I love to eat!!) I hope this is it ladies!! Report	emyyjunito Posts: 56

Reply by Mrstruth » May. 20, 2012 7:48pm Eande I have had two lost angels, and three deliveries, I found out about my son because I just wasn't feeling too up and I went to the doctor to get birth control although I felt that I was pregnant but I still went to get it and they confirmed I was. With my second baby I was feeling fatigue and light headed I was nauseated but not vomitting and went to the doctor I was pregnant. With the baby before my second I was nauseated not vomitting and sore boobs, baby after my second no signs I thought I was just tired for workin long hrs, and with my last I had to be like two weeks when I got the sign because when I received first U/S I was 4w1d and that was a few days from testing. At two weeks I went to buy lunch at my favorite wings place and the smell made me vomit. So I said okay maybe I am tripping so that weekend and two days following I was nauseated off and on. So I tested with a family dollar test I and it was a BFP my ultrasound a few days later confirmed it Emy Friday I will be 10dpo as well and I know a lot of women get there BFP at 9dpo but most of them gets faint lines. Very faint lines and I want definitely Report	Mrstruth Posts: 61

Reply by eande1203 » May. 20, 2012 9:02pm Mrstruth - I see each one of your pregnancy's was different (symptom wise) Do you think it would be silly to test anytime before Friday? Emmy - Welcome! :) Glad you could share this expierence with us! How long have you been feeling symptoms? Report	eande1203 Posts: 21

Reply by Mrstruth » May. 20, 2012 9:24pm I don't think it will be silly just have an open mind. Get some wlamart cheapies so that it's not that much like .88 cents. I am here to support you Report	Mrstruth Posts: 61

Reply by eande1203 » May. 21, 2012 9:39am Thank you for your support and encouragement. I too am here to support you! :) I keep going back and forth about testing before i'm 9dpo. Have you used the Walmart brand before? I thought about buying a few of the more inexpensive brands but (for whatever reason inside my beady little brain) I'm worried that the cheap brands aren't as reliable as the "name brand" products...... : / Report	eande1203 Posts: 21

Reply by emyyjunito » May. 21, 2012 10:15am Hi there eande1203 and ladies! Thanks for welcoming me!! I have been feeling symptoms since 1 DPO believe it or not. It's been non-stop fatigue and mild cramps, especially around my lower back area, loss of appetite. Now the last two days I have had an increase in CM, it's been white and creamy. However, today you could say a lot of my symptoms have stopped. I took one of those dollar store tests at around 5:00am this morning and of course it was BUT I know that I am very early. today I am only 6 DPO. I am going to have to stick to my guns and wait until at LEAST Saturday. I did say Thursday or Friday, but I am going to do my best to hold off as close as to as possible. All last week I just FELT pregnant, now today I am like what the heck? My mind MUST be playing tricks on me I am still going to stay optimistic and that the great Lord bless us this time with a I shall keep everyone posted! Any other ladies in here due for the wretched 5/29 or 5/30? How has everyone else been feeling? to all you wonderful ladies and of course much Report	emyyjunito Posts: 56

Reply by eande1203 » May. 21, 2012 12:03pm Emmy - I know EXACTLY how you feel. I've still been dying to take a test. I have been feeling symptoms everyday since 3 days after unprotected sex but I feel like you do. I'm worried that my head is playing tricks on me. I've tried to convince myself to at least wait til i'm 9-10 DPO but it's so hard! LOL! I feel as though everyday my symptoms get less but i'm not sure if that would be considered a positive sign or not. : / Report	eande1203 Posts: 21

Reply by eande1203 » May. 21, 2012 1:32pm Mrstruth-how are you feeling today? Any changes? Anything new/different? (I just went and bought a few dollar store tests to make myself be quiet until at least the end of this week haha!) Report	eande1203 Posts: 21

Reply by Mrstruth » May. 21, 2012 1:42pm I had my progesterone test results today. I am 6dpo and they really should have done it tomorrow at 7dpo but it was 13.3 I don't know how to feel about that. But I am having major cramping by my pelvic, uterus area, throbbing breasts wondering if it's premenstrual or BFP very emotional today as well Report	Mrstruth Posts: 61

Reply by eande1203 » May. 21, 2012 4:18pm Stay positive and try not to stress! ;) Your only 6 dpo so try to remain positive. (even though i know it's hard to be patient, i myself can't be right now lol) You know i am definitely sending PLENTY of good baby vibes your way! :D Do you plan on testing with a HPT in the next few days? I too feel emotional, i guess. I keep going through what i consider little emotional roller coasters. One minute i'm excited, the next i'm worried, the next i'm disappointed, it just goes on and on! More than anything my stomach is almost irritated no matter what i eat. It's awkward though because my stomach doesn't actually hurt and i don't have heartburn or anything. It just seems like whatever i eat i don't want much to eat of it and when i do eat i have to fight myself from gagging. (none of that is a normal thing for me, even before my period) BUT i don't know if that's just my excited/nervous stomach or if it's due to pregnancy (HOPEFULLY) fingers crossed for you and I & other ladies in this forum!
