Anyone on or near 10 dpo? How are you feeling?
Just wanted to check in with others who are like me waiting to find out if they are pregnant this cycle.
How are you feeling?
Any symptoms that are standing out that have you hopeful or wondering?
When are you going to test?
I am ttc #1. I have regular 27 day cycles with a 15/16 day luteal phase. I check my cm, take vitamins and use opk's. Been trying for almost 5 years now.
This cylce I got ovulation spotting which has only happened to me 2 times in my life before this. Hoping it's a great fertility sign?
Ovulated on Feb 13th. Now I am 10 dpo.
Symptoms so far
0 day - 7 dpo Not much. Just the usual gassy, heartburn, bloated, nipples sore for a few days after O, Some weird dreams and moody.
8 dpo - 10 dpo (current ) Vivid dreams, hot and cold body temps, dry throat, thirstier, dry skin (but it is winter) rash or pimples breaking out on my chest ??? Stuffy nose for 3 days. Mild ovary cramping/twinges. Getting shooting pains in my breasts a few times a day/night which I have never gotten before. Less moody today then the past week thank GOD! All these could be progesterone as well.
Anyone want to add on so we can obsess, wait, hope, pray and test together?

Miracle...you are a strong woman. I'm thankful you're here and able to feel joy again. And you're exactly right, it is the worst pain and helpless feeling ever.
I'm afraid of going to the appointment today, although i could swear I'm feeling movement already. I felt Elijah early, too. A perk I guess of being pregnant 9 times.
Mrssuz...hang in there, dear. Sometimes I think testing is the most draining part!

@ football so sorry hun plz update when you can let us know how your doing?
and yes you have to heat all deli meats up to steaming hot , they say when pregnant and elderly you have a higher chance of catching listeria that includes hot dogs

@lole-I have been thinking about you lately! I am so glad those babes are staying put. They need as much time as possible. So sorry about Eli's allergies. Just one more thing to have to worry about. Well, I bet that your DH would rather you stay put then get up and celebrate him. You can do something extra fun next year for him :)
@Football-I hope we hear from you today. I am praying that the bleeding was a false alarm, and that the bean is perfectly healthy. I hope you are doing ok.
@mrssuz-Sorry about the BFN. You are not out until the witch shows. Hopefully your levels are just rising slower than your previous pregnancy. My sister didn't get her BFP until 13dpo...and it was by blood work. Her doctor said her levels were so low that she would not have tested positive on an HPT until probably 17dpo. Hang in there.
@rebecca-Thinking about you today. I know everything will go perfectly at your appointment. I hope you hear the HB!!
@kxmkate-Wow, what a journey you two have been on. I hope you get your BFP soon :)
AFM-Well ladies...I finally got my positive OPK last night. I told myself I was done testing, but i just had a feeling I needed to. Since I am Oing later this cycle, we have gotten a lot of BDing in since AF which is great. We have been BD more like ever 36-39 hours rather than 48. We have no idea what his count is like right now, but we are just going with it. I am hoping I O today...if I do, I should be getting the pains soon. I have had 5 days of straight EWCM. Crazy.

Hey everyone. Thank you for your kind words.
The bleeding continued last night and is now full blown. I didn't go to the doctor and I'm not in pain physically, but I know I'm miscarrying. It's heavier than my period.
My instincts told me this wasn't going to stick. I knew that the lines not getting any darker wasn't a good thing.
I wish I could say I was numb at this point, because then I wouldn't have to sort through the wide variety of emotions I'm feeling.
I'm grateful that God answered my prayer because now I know I CAN get pregnant. But while that will be comforting knowledge in a few days or weeks, right now I feel like a failure as a woman and mother. Right now I feel like a cruel joke was played on me. I want to hide in bed and just cry. And scream. And hide from the world.
I don't even know what to expect from my body the next few weeks.
Hopefully sometime soon in the future I'm able to carry a baby to full term.
Hope you ladies have a great day.

@Football-oh girly I am so sorry. I was so hoping the bleeding would stop. I will be praying for you. I truly cannot imagine what you are going through, but I bet it does feel like a cruel joke. I hope DH is comforting you in this time of need. You are very right, now you would pregnancy is possible. The sad and scary fact is that so many women miscarry, some not knowing they are because they are not trying, and some like you who want it so bad. I will be praying for you. I am so sorry for your loss.

Football...dear I'm so sorry. Yes, when it happens it can feel like a cruel joke, but God does not do that to us. Its just part of living in this world. I know it may not help, but sweetie you are not a failure as a mom or a woman. You loved your baby and did the best you could for him or her. Sometimes this happens. I have found that having an answer or not doesnt take the pain away...it's just something we have to go through.
We're here for you. I'm lifting you and your dh in prayer. Take your time, and take care of yourself. Let your hubby pamper you if he wants.
Afm...we heard the heartbeat, but this OB was the most incompetent, unprepared dr I've ever seen. I dont think we'll go back to her again. They said they were surprised to get the heartbeat since i was so fat! WTH? They also have no clue how far along I am. Clueless.
