@Alex. Here's hoping AF stays away. Thanks girl. Not sure what is happening today. As for signs; last night I watch Big Bang Theory and it is where Bernadette announces that she is pregnant and Howard is freaking out. So, not sure if that is a sign or not.

AFM. 6DPO and had a huge dip in temperature from 98.3 to 97.8 and slightly thicker cm than normal. Last night, I was having a shower and I turned the one way and I felt a knot or a pulling sensation near my belly button area. My boobs hardly hurt at all. Another thing that may not mean anything is that when I went to pee yesterday, normally it's very strong but this time it smelt kind of sweet. I know all pregnancies are different but I wish there was some other way of knowing. I plan on not using any of my good tests till closer to AF. Last pregnancy I got a very faint line at 8DPO. Argh. The unknown. AF is roughly 8-10 days.

Thanks Alex. According to my app, today is O day. Had some sharp pains on my left side off and on yesterday with twinges galore. Also have metallic taste in mouth, sensitive nips and tender boobs.

@dragonfly you're describing how I felt in my tww! I started feeling twinges and light/dull aching at 3dpo and it lasted all the way until 7dpo. I could feel implant in my previous pregnancies too but it lasted like a day tops. I stopped temping after like 4dpo cause I just couldn't handle analyzing it lol but your dip sure sounds great!

@hberry You are in great company. I think we've all spent our fair share exactly where you are. I'm sorry. :'( fingers crossed this is it!!

AFM, used a FRER & wondfo this morning. Still a nice line on the wondfo! FRER had one too and better than 2 days ago but still no where near as dark as I would think (and have been in the past) for 14dpo. Really hoping it was just a later implant or the wrong time of day to test. I went to Target to get even more tests (haha) so I can test at other times of day to see if that's it. I've been using SMU around the same time since historically that's worked better. But maybe this pregnancy is just different! Even though my confidence isn't great with those FRERs, I took a digi after a couple hour hold this afternoon aaaaaand YES+!! Now I just need to get past AF being due and the points where I've m/c before and I think I'll finally relax. Rainbow baby #3 please stick!!!!

Looking forward to seeing more BFPs in here! Praying for each one of you to get your miracle.

@SheRiskers. I'm the same as you. I stopped temping about this time as I dreadded seeing the dip. This time, I'm going to go straight through until AF. Congrats on the BFP. Hoping I will get my BFP in the next few days. If not, I may have to do some serious thinking. Keep going or enjoy the two I have now.

SheRiskers- I feel better today. I still have sharp pains off and on in my abdomen. Especially the left side and also in the backside. Once in awhile I will get pains in my right side but its maybe so far twice.

@Hberry. Coud be you are ovulating real soon. Are you tracking with BBT and OPKs?

Dragonfly- I don't track with opks or bbt. I have a period tracking app that calculated today was O day.

@Hberry. What app do you use? I use womenlog pro (paid version) to track my stats. I pray this is your month and you get your BFP.

AFM. I had some sharp stomach pains across the belly button area and now having sharp pains above my hip bones on both sides. It will be interesting to see if my BBT rises back up in the morning. Have been having hot flashes the last couple days; not sure if it's my anxiety acting up about me being on the fence and trying to look for a house with the pandemic. Boobs ache but not as bad.

ETA. During the course of the ecening my muscles in my armpits was aching pretty bad and having some back spasms (pokes/pinches) near my hip area on my left. The right spasms are near the right hip bone on the front. Now feeling AF type cramps. Should be interesting to see what the outcome will be.

Dragonfly - I use period tracker. It's free and i can log my symptoms and whatnot on there. It also reminds me to drink water daily.

Af came early last night. Not in my best mood as you can understand.
Yesterday after washing my hair while blowing them out, I freaked out when I saw that the top of my hair are suddenly having so many new white hairs.. I mean it’s extreme. The anxiety from Covid hasn’t treat me well... I’m too old to be a first time mom.. My hair are getting grey and I guess my body is not having it...
