Category: Two Week Wait - Symptoms
Posted by aussiemom2011 » Jun. 16, 2012 3:53pm

Since 3DPO, I've been having some symptoms that are not normal for me during my cycle. To name a few: A persistent headache, mood swings beyond rational understanding, fatigue despite 8 hours of sleep, twinges in my abdomen, and queasiness. I'm not sure I can wait until 14-15 DPO to test!

So now I'm 9 DPO (with 5-6 days until AF is due) and despite my brain telling me not to, I took an HPT yesterday and got a BFN. I figured it was too early but then throughout the day, I felt really sad and completely down. I woke up feeling normal for the first time in days and it made my "down" feelings so much worse!

But now, my symptoms are all coming back and I've been having cramps off an on all day in addition to being gassy. Not to mention my frequent and quite urgent bathroom visits. Could it be that I still have a chance? Could this be all in my head? Oh my gosh, I just want this wait to be over already!

Thanks for listening and good luck to all!

Reply by MooneyBaby#1 » Jun. 16, 2012 6:05pm Stay positive!!!! There is still hope! ALWAYS! I'm 10 DPO and having ALL the same symptoms your having and I'm determined to live like I'm pregnant until AF tells me otherwise! I prayed for the Lord to send us a child and if it HIS perfect time then it will happen! We should be cycle buddies! Did you try the Pregnancy Test Calculator on the site? It's telling me to wait until the 22nd or 23rd to take mine so I'm going NUTTS!! And yesterday I started getting this rash and just today it started to spread all over my body :( Blessings and baby dust!!!

Reply by magenta » Jun. 23, 2012 4:44am Hi ladies, I'm also having similar symptoms but then again, I think I'm pregnant every month. This time though I have a lot more gas which I'm pleased about because when I was pregnant (before my mc) I had loads of gas but also my boobs were really really sore which I don't have this time. I too took a test but it was negative. It will happen for us! Report	magenta Posts: 53

Reply by MooneyBaby#1 » Jun. 23, 2012 2:28pm Hey Jenn! Have you tried the Pregnancy Test Calculator on the site? Go to Tools and Tickers on the top of the page and select it! There are different tools up there to use that will help you determine how long your cycle is and when you should be and testing hehe Took 2 tests today and but I'm still VERY hopeful because the hasn't shown up yet and she usually comes in the morning or over night! Still having all the same pains, cramps, twinges, stabbing pain in pelvis area, dull lower back pain and a few more! Stay encouraged until shows!!

Reply by magenta » Jun. 26, 2012 5:19am How is everyone going? AF due tomorrow but I couldn't wait!! Did a test but it was negative :( Report	magenta Posts: 53

Reply by MooneyBaby#1 » Jun. 26, 2012 12:01pm I still have and I went for a blood test yeterday and had to argue my way into it now I just have to wait the 2 days for the results. But I've been having increasing pain in my lower abdomen on the right side allllll morning and this weekend after I was complaining to DH about wanting someone to tell me already.. I saw a stork fly in front of the car!!!! It was huge! It's shadow covered 2 lanes!!! I understand how frustrated we must all be because yesterday I was LIVID! haha but I came to the realization that we put that stress on ourselves when we should be giving it to God and letting him handle it. We want to control everything and know EXACTLY what is going on and bottom line is that is unrealistic, we know it, but we can't help ourselves. Lets just not let it stress us out and harm our bodies and/or babies! Staying POSITIVE!!! Report By the blood of Jesus I am saved, By the grace of God I will concieve!	MooneyBaby#1 Posts: 336

Reply by MooneyBaby#1 » Jun. 30, 2012 2:34pm Hey Magenta!! Got a call the next day.. but when I asked if they tested my hormone level or if they gave me the test that just says neg/pos (like a urine test) I never got a call back from Kaiser. Still and I haven't taken another home test. I'm waiting on a call back from my OBGYN to see her just about my pelvic cramping pains. Hopefully she can tell me something more! I'm having increased pains and cramps and twinges and the lack of is VERY encouraging! Please keep me in your prayers!! Report By the blood of Jesus I am saved, By the grace of God I will concieve!

Reply by jenn435 » Jun. 30, 2012 3:14pm lots of prayers and thoughts your way. I'm really hoping its just late implantation your feeling... I'm worried for you because I know in topic pregnancies hcg levels don't rise like they should and can be painful. :hugs: I can't believe they won't return your call or give you a ultrasound. Can you go to er?? I know they would give you one in us. Not sure where our from. Please keep us posted Report	jenn435 Posts: 13
