Still no symptoms for me today, had one or two twinges but other than that nothing, no implantation pain - nada :( so disappointed :( cp is still low ... No good news from me, hope your day is going better. :) any implantation pains for you?

Ugh! I am feeling a little crampy but nothing at all like last month. I just can't tell! So disconcerting :/ cp seems medium and sorta soft...just really no idea. I feel pretty sure something was going on...all that nausea and everything, but most of it was gone by yesterday, or greatly diminished. Ugh!! This is the worst. The waiting is awful.

I'm so sorry you're feeling disappointed. Hugs!!! Its still so early,, Maybe you'll get a surprise. I know how it is when you really know your body though...it's hard to question what you do or don't feel. I'm still hoping for you though!

Hi there! I am 5dpo today. Has anyone had pinching in their cervix? That's the best way I can describe it, since it kinda reminds me of a mild version of a Pap smear lol

TTCnumberuno, hi! I Haven't had anything like that, but it does sound promising :) I had a bunch of symptoms, but not as much today! My chest is really sore, but that could just be changes I'm going through Bcc of a chemical pregnancy. I'm starting to think this won't be my month, but I haven't lost all hope yet. I hope the pains you're feeling mean BFP for you in a few days!!

Emily, I hope your spirits are higher today. So weird that we were both having symptoms and they seemed to vanish. I'm still hoping for sticky beans for both of us!! So not an emoticon person, but hey, the whole world is doing it! Better get w the times :)

Hey TTCNumerouno, I think I had something like that when I was pregnant last year but I can't really remember :) anything out of the ordinary has to be good though :)

Christy, feeling a bit more positive today, my breasts aren't sore yet which they normally would be before af by now. I had strong cramps like a stabbing pain late yesterday evening. Still no dreams which makes me think it's all in my head.

How are you? Any new symptoms? How you're feeling super positive today and this is our month :)

I am so out of sorts!! I had all the symptoms early in the week but it feels like they're gone. I don't think I implanted. I am starting to think this month is going to be another chemical pregnancy, but maybe not as bad because I don't think I implanted. The good thing is, I actually feel ok -- at least I don't think I'm terribly upset or anything. If anything, a chemical pregnancy this month would prove to me I didn't do anything wrong last month, because I've been really careful to rest and everything else. If i do end up pregnant, I will be super embarrassed lol

I am still rooting for you!! Keep me posted. Those strong cramps are a fantastic sign!!

Hi ladies!!

I am back from retreat! :)

Updates: well, I was cramping pretty bad on Wednesday evening when we got to the retreat house, feeling HUGE and super bloated even though hubby said I looked "normal". I felt these like "dull" cramps in my lower ab area, and then this strange pulling/pinching sensation on my right side - not IN my ovary, but like beside it or something. That same pulling sensation was there on Thursday, too.

On Friday (so 5DPO), I felt like ALL my "symptoms" were gone, and I felt a little worried/sad. Then at around 12:30pm out of the blue I felt this like stabbing/pinching sensation in my tummy and then the same pulling thing on my right side. This lasted like 5-8 mins and then it went away.

Yesterday and today I haven't really felt much of anything. Just a VERY upset tummy, but it was probably due to all the delicious food at the retreat :P I've been having the WEIRDEST dreams for the past 3-4 days, but I don't really know what that was about. My temp has stayed in a 'healthy' range, I think. It was 98, 98.2, 98.4 and 98.4 today too. These are, I think, normal LP temps for me, though, so I don't think they're showing any early signs of pregnancy. No temp dip and no spotting, so at least I haven't SEEN anything to indicate implantation (unless I'm the type of woman that doesn't really show any implantation signs!)

So yeah! I'm still hopeful, but trying not to go too crazy looking for symptoms. One week has gone by! Just one more and I can FINALLY test (I'm going to try to test AT LEAST on 12DPO. Ideally, 14 or 15DPO but we'll see if I make it, hehe).

Glad to be back here! How are you guys doing? :)

Hey ladies,

Welcome back Laura :) so glad to hear you're having all those symptoms and you're still feel positive I'm so excited for you! All of those symptoms sound super promising.How are you getting today? Anything new?

I'm pretty sure I'm out this month guys like 99% sure. I've still had no dreams and my bbs are starting to get tender (which is an af sign for me) I'm also not too tired which I was last time I was pregnant. So I think that's me out :/

Next month? :(

Still hoping it's a bfp month for you two!!!

Hey guys,

It's a new day here in Ireland so I said I'd check in.

For me, I think this isn't my month (but I've purposefully been reading the posts from women who thought they were out but got a BFP, to give me some hope still) I've little to no cramping, no dreams (but I'm waking a lot during the night - anxiety?) CP is very high so I can't tell if soft or hard as I can't reach it - this happened last month too and surely enough AF came, BBs are....getting tender (not a good sign for me, only happens if AF en route.) It's been a month I can use as experience if nothing else. I'm a bit down in the dumps and finding myself snapping at DH all the time - I'm just so disappointed.

How are you ladies? Anything? When will ye test?

Hey guys! :)

Well, my temps keep going up, but very very slowly. They were at 98.4 for 3 days and today up to 98.5. I wish I saw them go higher...I hope they do! As for symptoms, I didn't really get any cramping back after 6DPO. Breasts are still tender/painful, but not as much (last cycle it was crazy - they were HARD and very painful. That's the cycle we think we conceived but no implantation, so chemical I guess!) I don't know what it means. For me, unlike you Emily, I generally start getting tender bbs 3-4 before AF arrives. This time, they've been feeling tender since around 3DPO, I think. Still hoping that's a good sign!

As for the dreaming - it's still going on :-/ Every day it's like an episode of strangeland. Last night I think I was married to a mix of my hubby/Paul Walker (I have no crush on him or anything, it's just that on Sunday my family and I were talking about Furious 7, hehe). We were offered a part in a movie, even though I hate acting. I think my alarm woke me up when Paul Walker's mom and my mom were arguing amongst themselves about their cut from our 'movie paycheck'. Oh, all of this while on this strange-looking yacht...that was moving around an avenue here in Lima, Peru. So strange :S Every day I'm having weird dreams like this one.

Since ovulation I've also been having this HORRIBLE rash. It started on my elbows. Then on my knees. Then BEHIND my knees. Then right beside my armpits. And now I'm getting it on-and-off on my arms and legs. It's not a red rash, it looks more like mosquito bites and itches LIKE CRAZY. To the point where I'm scratching half awake/half asleep for most part of the night. This had never happened to me before :'( I was wondering if it could be pregnancy-related, but who knows :-/

Emily, don't lose hope! I've decided that I'm gonna allow myself to be hopeful. It might hurt more if I get a BFN when I test (in 3 days!!), but I think I might feel a *little* less anxious if I just allow myself to hope. It's a little experiment - I'll see how it goes!

Alright, time to go get ready to teach. Blessings! :)
