@Emma - I had a lot of odd pains last month, reminded me of RLP. coughing, standing up and other movements seemed to bring it on mostly. But one hit me while walking and I had to stop till it passed. Totally felt like I had torn across my uterus. AF arrived a few days later sadly. No idea what was going on
that your pain is implantation though!
Around 7dpo for me. No symptoms at all, fully expecting AF to show in the next 3-5 days (still breastfeeding my 1 year old so AF does whatever she wants)

Well ladies sorry I have been gone. I had a conference yesterday and had to travel the day before. Congrats to the positives!! And ????for those waiting!!
AFM: still only getting flashing smiley on the digital OPK but the cheap OPKs are getting lighter. It is odd, I have had some cramping/sharp pain on and off plus super egg white cm the last couple days. Happy to be home so we can continue to bd and try. Still low temps so hoping I O soon. Still nervous that my body is just playing tricks on me and I will have to take Provera again to induce a period. This cycle is so difficult to stay relaxed with!! CD19 at this point!

@emma it could possibly be a symptom babe especially if you didn't have a dip !! Wait a couple of days more and test !!
@JL that's so exciting il sorry you missed the egg last month but its definitely good that you ovulate I'm so excited for you !!
@mistique it sucks when AF is unpredictable... When are you planning on testing? Got my fingers crossed for you
@shay omg no babe I seriously hope that you stop having positives soon lol (not what I usually hope for)... Are you currently PP how long are your cycles?

So I think I'm around 4dpo today and to be completely honest I didnt give a damm to track post ovulation this month lol... I woke up with a contracting feeling in my uterus and SO mentioned my boobs are bigger which I feel is post ovulation hormones as it's too soon for pregnancy symptoms... I feel like emma did when you thought AF was gonna show early

@Anna, every month I symptom spot from around 7dpo, if breasts are tender and stay tender, then I’m pregnant, if the cervix stays high, if I feel thirsty, if I feel constantly hungry, if I’m emotional at 9dpo, then maybe its a successful cycle.
This month I also symptom spotted, but they subsided as the AF day got closer.
I called in defeat and had a glass of wine, I POAS (cheapie) just to brace myself for the looming AF. But then I saw the faint line. The only thing I can say is that anything before 10/12dpo symptoms, are progesterone related. So you will have symptoms, but it’s not because of HCG. Try not to symptom spot (muuuch easier said than done)

@bunny I'm blowing everything off as progesterone related I'm not even going to be like "omg this is a symptom" because there's explanations for everything happening right now which isnt pregnancy related lol...
I have my second specialist appointment tomorrow where I'll be discussing the possibility of us being pregnant this month and then the best type of birth control if we are not... I fell into a super dark place 2 or 3 days ago where I actually didn't want to be pregnant because of all the things happening in my mind (I'm an over thinker so I over analysed everything) and ended up crying because it's something that I've wanted so long and it's something that I still want and I just realized that because something changed my entire mind set changed but I think it's the thing of not being able to get pregnant or have a successful pregnancy for so long that also got me down

Hi ladies! Just popping on real quick to check in. I am 6dpo today, boobs feel really weird/tingly and a bit heavier. A bit nauseous and sensitive to smells this morning. I SWEAR I see the faintest of faint lines on my test this morning! Using tools on this site, the first picture I uploaded this morning I definitely see something on invert, so hoping I see a progressing positive as the days go on!!
Enjoying vacation way more than I thought I would, it has been SO fun!! I feel young and like a kid again, HA!
Hope to see some BFPs this week!!

Guys! I am having a lot of hip discomfort On both sides!! I struggled lifting my legs yesterday and even today as I was driving to work (45 min ????) it was uncomfortable! I have been feeling quite fatigued, including my body. It almost feels like I have inflammation on my hips or something, I am hoping to make an appointment with my Chiropractor soon, possibly help me with some strategies or something pregnancy safe to give me some relief ????
