I just recently became a member of the Two Week Wait. This website helped me out because I was having certain symptoms of AF so I thought I was out for the month. This was our 3rd cycle trying off of BCP that I have been on for about six years. This cycle we didn't do anything different. The only time we BD'd was 7 days before my positive OPK, the day I got my positive OPK and twice the day after.

1 DPO - Nipple Soreness (pretty sure this was from ovulation)
2 - 6 DPO - Nothing out of the normal
7 DPO - Woke up in the middle of the night to use the restroom and had a rush of nausea around 1:30am which was weird because I never feel that way. During the day I felt fine.
8 DPO - Woke up again during the night and felt nauseous again. In the morning I didn't feel well either. I was having AF like cramps.
9 DPO - Nausea again, AF cramps. Watery CM.
10 DPO - Nausea again, AF cramps.
11 DPO - AF cramps again, thick CM, thought for sure AF was on the way. Felt tired at dinner and just kinda blah.
12 DPO - Decided to stop and get a cheap test from CVS the night before. Woke up and was nauseous and decided to take the test using FMU. Within a couple minutes, I got my BFP!! 10 minutes later I took another and it came up positive as well.
13 DPO - Took another test, this time using the Clear Blue PLUS, within minutes got my BFP.
14 DPO - Took a Clear Blue Digital Test and came back positive as well.

I thought for sure I was out because of the cramps but being nauseous was something I never experience so I definitely thought that was weird. It was definitely the first sign.

Hey ladies! I've literally stalked this board for years now. Shocked that it's finally my turn- and it's still very early days. I over analysed everything this tww- even actually before I ovulated.

So background...

I'm 31, my fiancé is 39.
We've not really been trying but not preventing, we both said if it happens then we'd be over the moon, but there's no rush.
My cycles are normally 28-30 days long. Normally I ovulate mid cycle- so cd14 for 28, cd15 for 30. I track temps and monitor cm.
This month I ovulated late on cd19- my temps had been really up and down this month so I think I tried to ovulate before but it never happened so I ovulated late.
I will say now- I wasn't sure whether I had ovulated and I started symptom spotting before I had actually ovulated (lol), so ladies, I know it's hard but don't drive yourself mental.

So the symptoms-

O Day- BD twice- so I know this was the day I conceived- my partner was away for the rest of my fertile window!
LOADS of ewcm- was much more than I normally have and extra stretchy. Normally mine is only really watery so this was a curve ball for me.
Mild O cramps/pulls/pinches.

1dpo:
Woke up with sore throats and headache. Weird.
Mild O cramps continued but I was hyper aware of everything at this point.
Overwhelmingly tired.
Heartburn at night.
Temp spiked massively this morning also- which is odd for me, I normally go up for O day and then it's more of a steady climb.
NO CM

2dpo:
Temp goes up again.
Hot flashes at night.
Sore throat continues.
Still very tired.
Stomach cramps a bit stronger- mainly on left side where I ovulated from.

3dpo:
Sore throat and runny nose in the morning again.
Hot!
Cramps are mild but feel like electric rather than af type feelings.
Legs ached behind my knees at night so I couldn't get to sleep for a while.
Had a dream about having a baby- told my partner and he said I was obsessed at the moment. Maybe I was!

4dpo:
Sore throat and runny nose continue in the morning.
HUGE temp spike- it's the highest I've ever had since I started temping.
No CM in underwear but a little inside.
Noticed more after a BM and it was thick and white- I don't normally have this. I'm normally dry straight after O and get more at 6dpo.

5dpo:
Minor temp drop of 0.3 degrees.
Minor cramps continue. This was weird because I don't normally cramp after ovulation until a couple of days before AF.
Headache when I woke up.
Ears kept popping- don't know if this was related but I noted it!
I was extremely anxious and tearful today. Couldn't stop crying.

6dpo:
Temp goes down again but still above coverline
LOADS of thick creamy cm- again, I don't normally get this and it was really weird- it kind of held its shape. A bit like jelly but white! There was a lot of it, but not all day, mainly in the morning.
My hair was SO GREASY and I'd washed it the previous day. It looked like it hadn't been washed in a week.
My skin was also a bit slimy on my face.
Another weird one- and I've noticed this one other time when I had a chemical pregnancy so it might be totally unique for me- but my hands peel- like the skin on my fingers peels off like it's sunburnt. It's really bizarre!
TMI- I couldn't stop pooping today. I think I went 4 times in 2 hours. Normally im a one or two a day girl.
I CRIED ALOT TODAY. And was really anxious. I normally am quite chill till two days before AF.
Electric type cramps in the pm and they were low down and in my uterus. Had a couple of stabs near my ovaries but they weren't painful, more an OH!

7dpo:
Woke up at 3am and couldn't for the life of me get back to sleep.
Temp went back up to the highest it's been (37C)
Peeling fingers continue.
Thick creamy CM
Electric pangs in uterus and ovaries again in the pm for 5 mins.
Had pretty intense cramps briefly at night also on both sides. Sharper than AF cramps for me. I was lying on the sofa so I was really aware of every tug.
Bad nausea in the PM and was nearly sick.
Uterus feels full.

8dpo:
Woke up again in the middle of the night but managed to go back to sleep.
Temp went up a little again.
Mild nausea.
Hot flash in the morning. I took my temp out of interest and it beeped that I had a fever.
Emotional again- I cried at something on tv and I knew I was being ridiculous.
Intense dreams.

9dpo:
Woke up in the middle of the night again.
Higher temp again.
Headache in the morning.
Thick CM and had a lot of it. It took me by surprise and I definitely hadn't had it before.
In the afternoon I went to the shops and I noticed my nipples felt like they were sunburnt- but when I touch them they are fine. My boobs normally hurt just before my period, but this was early and not the same at all.
Aside from that I felt totally fine, maybe a little tired.
One spot of blood- and I mean one!
Took a pregnancy test at night and a faint line came up. BFP.

10dpo:
Took another test, another faint line. But darker. BFP.
Nipples still feel like they are sunburnt.
Very tired. Very shocked!
Other than that I feel completely normal and not pregnant at all!

So ladies- don't worry if you don't have implantation spotting. Don't worry if you don't have every symptom. My biggest things were things like the increased CM (but I do have it any way just not as much) and my sunburnt type nipples. And I was mega tearful and upset for a couple of days. And my temp was up higher than normal and stayed there for a while.

Good luck to all! Praying for a happy and healthy 9 months!

I'm a total symptom stalker, so every month of ttc, I KNEW I was pregnant, went through a million tests just to be wrong. This month was different. I KNEW but in a different way than all the other times.

O Day: I was at my brother's house, went to the bathroom and noticed I had a TON OF ewcm. DH and I had stopped trying for about 2 months at the point, so I told him "I have never seen this much ewcm before. This is our chance!" We ditched my brother and went home to dtd lol we also used preseed just to help things along.

1dpo: Dtd again, for good luck. No symptoms other than ovulation pain, which I always get the day after.

2dpo: I broke out in zits. I remember telling hubby that I never break out right after ovulation. Only closer to AF. We noted that it was odd.

3dpo: More acne on my face, I was really moody. Hubby made me a drink to help take the edge off lol after one drink I noticed I felt drunk, like as if I had 2 or 3 drinks on an empty stomach. I drank a ton of water and went to bed early, feeling tired.

4dpo: Started to get a runny nose, but nothing else I really noticed.

5dpo: Felt tugging pain behind my belly button. Almost like a dull throbbing that only lasted a few minutes.

6dpo: Felt emotional...angry mostly and got and at DH for nearly everything.

7dpo: started to feel hungry more often. If I didn't eat right when my body told me I needed to, I got huuuge stomach pains. Took a hpt and it was bfn

8dpo: same as 7dpo but didn't test. My female cat became really affectionate and protective over me. She was by my side all day and all night. The last time she is that was when I was pregnant with DD.

9dpo: Really hungry, exhausted, some cramps that were strong enough to make me heel over until they subsided.

10dpo: Hubby left for a 10 day trip. My daughter (14 months) started saying "Baba, Mama!" And pointing at me. She doesn't take a bottle so baba to us means baby, like her dolls usually. At night, in bed, I felt my stomach/womb almost throbbing. It wasn't painful, just really noticeable.

11dpo: I textedy DH telling him about the throbbing I had the night before. He said "Buy a test!" So I packed up the kid and went straight to the store lol Got a FRER 6 days sooner and after the 3 minutes, there was actually a line! No squinting or trying to find the right light! It was there clear as day! Felt emotional all day, cried a ton lol

I've had 4 miscarriages before my daughter, and my Dr said I might never have children at all before I had her. So this second baby is really a blessing. I'm still testing every day to make sure that second line stays there. With my previous pregnancies, I never got a line until after my missed period, but this time it was 6 days before AF is due! We're hopeful and feeling so happy!

I have an 11 month old. Been ttc #2 for 4 cycles. I've never had a normal cycle - it'd come every 2 months or so. I was lucky when I got pregnant last year because it was the first try. But after I stopped breastfeeding at 6 months, my cycles were JACKED UP. Cycles lasted 52 days, then 34 days, then this one is supposed to be 30 days... but now I'm pregnant! First pregnancy I had nausea once, tender boobs, going to the restroom a lot - and these were symptoms BEFORE my BFP. This time, nothing except implantation pinch and spotting. Every pregnancy IS different!!

10/25- super positive opk bd'd x4... fiance had been away for a bit so this was welcome home sex lol. Lots of energy! I think today was the day I ovulated.

Ovulation Day (10/26)- BD'dx4. neg opk. Nipples super sore, especially left nipple. Really emotional for no specific reason. Just wanted to cry... did cry a little while snuggling with my fiance. Super sleepy!

1dpo (10/27)- BD'dx4. Nipples suuuper sore today. Got really angry quite a few times throughout the day over stupid things.

2dpo (10/28)- BD'd x3. Nipple still quite sore. Grouchy most of the day and super tired even though I slept fine through the night. Nothing stood out.

3dpo (10/29)- BD'd. Nipples much more sore and very very erect... like sticking out farther and staying hard longer and getting hard easier. Very gassy at night. Smell of fiances onion breath grossing me out. Bunch of red acne like bumps on my butt cheeks lol (tmi I know)

4dpo (10/30)- Fiances breath still smelt like onions (faint smell) even after brushing his teeth, bleh. Bumps on butt gone! Nauseas after morning nap. Weird faint stomach cramps similar to a few days before AF. Nipples a lot more sore. Breasts feel sore now too, right boob more sore than right. Full feeling in breasts also. Nipples still easily getting erect and much harder than normal. Smell of onions in fridge was all I could focus on at work whenever I would open fridge and there was only one onion IN A CLOSED DRAWER!! Weird nausea most of day. Really tired even after drinking coffee. The iced tea I ALWAYS drink tastes off...
Not really hungry at all today. Basically had to force myself to eat. Maybe cause I drank coffee earlier? 6pm relaxed pulse78- bp is 115/73.

10/31 5dpo
Woke up around 9am with awful stabbing pain near right hip bone. RIGHT after peeing had awful period like cramp as if first day of af and then around noon had light period like cramping for less than a minute. 125/76 pul83 @5pm. Got really light headed and ears were ringing around 615pm. Super tired. Fell asleep so many times even with a five hour energy. Neg opk @11pm (the cramps this am weirded me out and I normally get pos opks until the day or 2 after I ov.)

11-1-17 (6dpo): Woke around 1am and got up to let dogs out. Didnt pee or anything but once I came back to bed I had the same weird period like stomach cramps for a tad over a minute. Praying for our miracle <3 woke up at 630am having to pee reeeal bad. Went pee and luckily no period like cramps after peeing!!! Maybe I am not out after all. Also, I remember my dream! All of it quite vividly. I usually dont remember them. Slight acid reflux around 930am... puked in mouth a little. Super tired in am even though I slept all night. Fell asleep at dr appt. Dr felt my stomach and when she pressed near left ovary it hurt like a quickstabby type pain. Went to work exhausted and barely got anything done. Around 3/4pm I went to the bathroom (#2) and was super gassy. Got a horrible period like cramp to the point where I almost vomited :/ had to lay down for a little bit. Had awful hot flash around 520pm that lasted about 15min. Nipples still super sore! Staying erect longer and pointing out farther. 530 temp 98.9° F and blood pressure of 125/72 and pulse of 99 (been running around though- will try again later). Super itchy right foot around 645pm. Fell asleep real early woke up with a sore throat at 10pm. Remembered the vivid dream I had had when asleep for a couple hours. Don't usually remember my dreams.

11-2-17: 7dpo- Sore throat still.
Weird dream, strange that I keep remembering dreams. Left breast has shooting pain at 10am. Acid reflux also around same time. Feel depressed. Whole body aches... 1145am blood pressure 109/67 & pulse of 90. Temp of 98.8 (was taken when relaxed after driving for a half hr). Fell asleep and woke up @1:20 w/ bp of 100/61 pul86.
Sore throat still but now also have horrible head ache. Fever of 99.7 @ 6pm. Fell asleep and woke up feeling worse :/ took Tylenol. Whole body has been aching all day... I'm out this month. I just know it. Tylenol helped a lot. When I got home from work my fiance was eating some spicy chicken and I could barely stand the smell I almost had to go outside. Bleh. Nipples aren't as sore but still sore. Right more sore than left (usually happens around this time)... Sorta losing hope. Checked cm while in the shower and it was white and creamy tinted with blood. Wicked hot flash after shower. BD then went to bed.

11-3-17 8dpo BFN hpt w/ FMU. woke up feeling GREAT compared to the past week(: don't feel as exhausted and my body isn't as achy. Throat ache is going away- almost gone. Didn't cramp after peeing and I normally do the week before AF (mainly in AM). Breasts feel fuller and right breasts is starting to hurt when touched. Nipples still sore but not as easily or intensely erect as they were in the past 5 days. CM isn't thick like it was yesterday. It's still white but more of a thin wet, almost slippery cm. Not ewcm but it is slightly stretchy... Strange. 415pm blood pressure 124/71 and pulse of 94. Was 117 this AM after short walk. 109/59 bp 89pulse @ 645pm after shower. Barely any cm but when I "finger some out" (eww tmi I know) it's lotion like. BFN. Shooting pain in upper stomach after BD... Maybe it was from the position lol :P weirdly horny. Didn't want sex at all past few days but today my SO just looks sooo fiiiine!!

11/4/17 9dpo
Woke up feeling good again today... Normally cramp after FMU the week before AF but nothing! Took frer and Walmart 88cent test both neg. Got light headed from two drags of morning cigarette (I've been TTC forever and I caved and started smoking again- I will quit once pregnant or maybe sooner) breasts are both quite sore especially my right breast. Nipples still sore but not as intensely sore as they were a few days ago. Emotional today. Sleepy but not as tired as before. Exhausted from grocery shopping and super sweaty.. eww. BP 106/65 after bringing groceries in and pulse of 85. Blew my nose and realized there was blood in my boogers... No bloody nose but like a bright red streak of fresh looking blood. Nose feels dry. I remember my nose feeling odd 2 days ago like I'd snorted something o.O (I was a bit experimental in my teens, don't hate)

10dpo- af like cramping for 2min after peeing at 130am... neg hpt in am:( I'm out... I just know it. Called out of work and slept most of day... Cervix high and soft. Increase in lotiony cm. Weird cramp behind pubic bone. Not period like. Feeling anxious, may be from caffeine in mountain dew. Can't relax. Weird cramps randomly but wouldnt say they're exactly like period cramps. Strange cramps for sure. Almost like a tugging feeling I guess. 99.6 temp around 9pm. I've been either feeling out completely or having the tiniest sliver of hope... But really don't think this is my month. Nose is really dry and kinda burns. Boogery here n there which isn't a usual thing for me.

11dpo- woke up to pee around 4AM and did 88c hpt - checked after 2min. neg and lay down... suddenly felt an awful wave of nausea... Bleh. I always feel kinda sick in am before AF but this was way more intense I may end up puking.... Thought I was going to cramp after peeing like I do for days leading to af but nothing just odd stomach ache and nausea... Hmm. Come on, this two week wait has been so hard. I thought taking a break from TTC for 5 months would make it less stressful to come back to but guess not. Period like cramps- not strong though- and more centered behind pubic bone. Im pretty sure I am out. Breasts are still sore and feel really heavy today. Mainly sore in center and around nipple but only right nipple is sore when it comes to the nipple itself. Exhausted today. Since I'm most likely out I drank a 5hr energy and it didn't even phase me!!! Fell asleep about 30min after.... FML... Hot flash around 6pm. Super light cramps all day behind pubic bone?? Almost wondering if it's all in my head. Kind of period like but not really.

12dpo 11/7
Cried in am a lot on way to work. Cramps like af is coming all day. Some spotting in cm when checked. cervix went back up in afternoon and had ewcm with more of a white color... Stretchy and all..... Hmm... Strange. Super tired all day. Angry in afternoon. Super grouchy. Veins near breasts more prominent... Seems to happen before AF though. BDx2.

13dpo 11/8
Shooting pain in lower stomach above pubic bone when standing up first thing in am... Took a while to go away then peed and had a long painful AF like cramp which I normally get the day of right before af starts but no blood in cm yet..
Odd.. always get blood spotting for a day or so before af when checking cm straight from cervix. Cervix Still high, barely reachable so can't tell if soft. Still no AF or slotting as of 5:30pm. Realized at 7pm that no spotting and cervix barely able to reach so took digital at 8pm and it's positive!!! Looked back at am test and that was also pos! I'm still cramping. Truly felt out.

Hi ladies,

Given I stalk this site, it’s only fair I pot my own BFP story as well. I ovulated on October 31. We started using preseed about 3 cycles ago and have been unsuccessful. I decided this would be our last month using it and next month we would try without it. Generally I symptom spot like crazy, but this month I felt different. I had decided not to think about that stuff and given I felt that I was out this month I decided to contact my FS to let him know that we will be proceeding with IUI next month. Usually I symptom spot and feel nauseous and I could have sworn a few months ago I felt implantation... but always got a BFN!

This month there were only a few different hints. #1 usually my breasts swell up at about 5dpo, this month they didnt! Secondly I normally have a lot of CM post ovulation, it’s generally creamy and can be seen in my underwear. This month I was dry as a bone! No marks in my undies at all. I also found myself drinking a lot of water and green tea from 4 dpo onwards. The night before 10 dpo I had some wackyyyy and Vivid dreams, I woke up on the morning of 10 dpo wondering if I should poas but decided against it. I went to work and while sitting at my desk I realized that my breasts felt huge, as if they grew overnight, and every time my arm hit the side it felt sore... like bruised. This is when I was like ok whooaaa maybe I need to test, but then convinced myself it’s too early.

That evening when I got home and was getting dressed to go to a party, I decided to pee on an internet cheapie. After 5 minutes there was nothing so I threw it out. About half an hour later I felt an inkling to look again, and here was a faint line! I grabbed a FRER and forced more pee and within 3 minutes there was a faint line!!!

My breasts are still quite big and sore! And the tiredness is just so extreme! Hope this little bugger sticks!!!

Good luck and baby dust to you all!

I stalked these boards during our time TTC and wanted to add my very well documented symptoms. For the past year, my PMS has gotten worse and seems to have been different each month, thus driving me crazy! I've had one ovary removed and a history of functional, yet painful and large ovarian cysts. The ovary that was removed was due to an emergency surgery from a ruptured and bleeding cyst. I passed out and woke up in the ER from blood loss (thought I had the flu!). Anyway, my PMS symptoms were getting so bad that I just knew I was pregnant every month. I would get dizzy, nausea, sore boobs, headaches/ migraines, weak when standing, peeing a lot, literally everything for two weeks starting right after ovulation. I ended up taking iron which helped with most of those symptoms. Ladies, if you're getting these symptoms every month you may be anemic like me and take a multivitamin and some iron.

We began TTC 6 months ago, however my husband had a condition that I had never heard of before. We're both 33. I found out that he was orgasming when we had sex, but not ejaculating. He says he thinks it just came from trying not to get anyone pregnant for so long. It was like a mental hurdle. After months of him getting so frustrated during sex that he couldn't get off at all, we decided to try using a syringe. That didn't work. My guess is that it didn't get far enough in there and that in the process we may have been damaging the sperm. Finally, he was able to ejaculate manually near my vagina which ended up with him basically forcing himself to ejaculate inside me. Like I said, I've had the opposite problem my whole life and thought it was nuts. I guess overthinking and all... who knows. Anyways, the first month that he was able to do it, we got pregnant!

1-4 DPO: No symptoms other than on 3 dpo I had EWCM and was worried that I got ovulation date wrong. Apparently that is caused by an estrogen surge that happens around that time.

5DPO: Light cramps, severe food cravings (specifically white wedding cake), dizziness, extremely tired, peeing more than usual, headache/ migraine, no sex drive.
6DPO: Woke up with acne (I never get acne, just maybe a few pimples during pms), sore boobs, started mixing words up like my brain wasn't working properly, more exhausted, peeing a lot, headaches/ migraine worse, gas and fibromyalgia flared up. Made a note that I was feeling like I might be pregnant, not because of symptoms but just a feeling. Had a 2 minute pinch in uterus area. Was freezing that day, which is odd for me. Sneezing and blowing my nose a lot.
7DPO: Ovary pain, severe backache, insomnia, fibro still flared up (hurt everywhere), boobs still sore, constipated, cramps but not like period cramps. Still craving that cake. Dizzy, Tired, headache and peeing a lot. Nausea, peeing a lot and having hot flashes. I had another 2 minute pinching in the exact same spot of uterus. Temp was up to 99.3. Cried over tv shows 3 times.
8DPO: Cried while watching The Mindy Project, digestive issues and belly feels weird. Still sore boobs, bad sleep, tired, peeing a lot, nausea, hot flashes, no sex drive, and really bad cramps.
9DPO: Very tired. Can't stand for long. Hip and lower back pain severe and shooting down inner thighs. It was so bad I was covered in ice packs and heating pads. Couldn't get comfortable. Heat and ice didn't help the pain. Nearly fell asleep in the store. I had to sit down because I was overheating and dizzy, so I sat in a chair and nearly fell asleep! Mixing up words so bad I feel like I have a brain injury. I would say something like "I love you" and it would come out "I shirt you". It was strange and frustrating! Still peeing a lot, tired and sore boobs.
10DPO: I woke up listening to my husband's dream about zombies. I got pissed off because I felt like it was a childish dream and that he has never gone through anything bad (I've had a rough life and have PTSD). I was just oddly pissed and normally even during PMS I'm not angry at him. I'll cuss someone out in traffic, get involved in a Facebook fight or something silly during PMS but this was like sheer rage directed at him. We somehow ended up talking about dogs, or rather I was. I love my dog and started crying over how dogs are so good that humans don't deserve them. This was all ridiculous. My dog is getting older and he's not a fan of dogs (fear from being but when he was little). I was so mad and so sad at the same time. We had a fight over dogs because he said he doesn't want another dog after mine dies and I started defending my unborn (and unknown about) child's future non-existent dog! I was like "my child will have a puppy brother!!" and stormed out. It was so ridiculous and unlike me. I even started questioning my decision to marry someone who doesn't love dogs. Had bad ovary pain, all the other symptoms like getting words mixed up, hot flashes, can't stand for long, tired, sore boobs, peeing a lot, gas, vague nausea. After I had already peed 5 times before lunch I decided to go take the pregnancy test under the sink. It was from the dollar store and I didn't expect it to work. I walked away from it because I didn't want to watch it. When I came back there was a very visible yet faint line. BFP!! (Apologized to husband and told him the good news!)

Since then I have had the main symptoms listed still (hot flashes, can't stand for long periods of time, peeing a lot, sore boobs, hungry). Very excited and I feel like it's a girl! We'll see. It ended up that over-thinking the possible pregnancy symptoms was a waste. The actual symptoms I had were that of implantation (which lasted 3 days), the rest caused by progesterone. Only had a few weird symptoms such as the wedding cake craving (which resulted in a trip to the bakery two days in a row), the sneezing, the hilarious crying episodes (which still could all be normal for the TWW. The main symptoms that told me I was pregnant were the not being able to stand for long without needing to sit and sweating in the stores and also my brain not working!

Hi All!

I’ve been on this site for over a year now and I’m happy to finally post my BFP journey by DPO.
Bit of background info - I’m 29, I have 2 beautiful children (DS12&DD9), I had a cp August 2016 and I was diagnosed with Chronic Migraines, June of this year. I have had constant headaches during the 2WW but haven’t documented them as I wouldn’t know better. This was a surprise and we weren’t proactively trying but if it happens it happens.

CD10 - DTD pm, cm - creamy

CD11 - EWCM, I can feel my boobs
Pm gassy - fuller/bloated feeling, pain when I cough

Ovulation Day CD12 - Light cramping, EWCM, ovulation pain left side. BBT 35.7

1DPO - Mid left cramps, bad gas- lower tummy very tight making it hurt when I did a wee wee. backaches. Creamy cm. BBT 36.1

2DPO - ovulation pain left side?! Bad gas with pain. tingly nipples, shooting pain in left breast more than once in afternoon which continued to midnight. pain in left midsection maybe gas related. I need to pee every 1 hour since waking up to lunchtime. body aching. small amount of ewcm not very stretchy, dry cm after 8pm. Hot flushes in the afternoon and noticing I’m thirsty. Craved watermelon? I don’t really like this! Fatigue and nausea. BBT 36.1

3DPO - Left side twinges /pains. Tired. Gassy and bloated with aches. Creamy cm. Heightened sense of smell. My partner can’t seem to do anything right today and into the coming week! So grumpy lol BTW this isn’t me. BBT 36.2

4DPO - light cramps and extreme gas pain. I’m thinking WTH is going on with me?! I have never been like this in my life. My partner offered to swap butts so he could get rid of my gas for me lol so sweet. BBT 36.2

5DPO - Gas aches and pains. Thirsty. BBT 36.5

6DPO - Boobs slightly tender on and off. Very gassy. One sharp cramp this morning and
Back aches after breakfast.. I never eat breakfast but I was sick hungry. BBT 36.5
My guess now is this was the day of implantation.

7DPO - Gas pain and food cravings. I wanted a chocolate cake and nothing else haha
BBT 36.1

8DPO - very tired. Between not being able to sleep from my headaches to Broken sleep. It’s been and ugly week. Don’t feel the slightest bit pregnant.

BBT 36.2

10DPO - Thirsty, Sick hungry, Loss of appetite. Watery CM. BBT 36.3

11DPO - Period pain burning, Loss of appetite.
So I’m sitting on the couch while my partner is burping and carrying on and I thought to myself, im not the gassy one in the relationship it’s him and maybe it’s a pregnancy symptom? Having multiple pregnancies I haven’t had any of my usual 2WW symptoms. I took a confirm HPT and got a very very faint line. BBT 36.2

12DPO - I find this funny that the moment I take FMU HPT, and get a second faint line that I then get every symptom I normally would.
Confirm HPT barely there pink line FRER definitely positive .
Sore boobs - bright blue veins.
Light headed
Nauseous
Wanted to vomit after dinner
Hot flushes all day
Period pain on and off /gas
Twinges left side of stomach
Poking sensation by belly button left side
BBT 36.4

13DPO - BBT 36.5
Sharp stabbing in left ovary region throughout the day. Pulling sensations in uterus?
Boobs are really sore.
Nauseous / light headed
Tired/exhausted
Emotional at a wedding ring? (lady taking bloods) it was pretty! Lol
Hot flushes
Burning / period sensation
Gas
HPT confirm faint pink positive. FRER BFP
Drs appointment also had Blood test today. I’ll post my Beta HCG results for you ladies on Monday. I also recommend not using the Confirm HPT as they not very sensitive. FRER for the win

14DPO - Clear Blue digital not FMU pregnant 1-2weeks, but I already know that only DTD once!
Pulling sensations in stomach
Sharp shooting sensations left side of abdomin
Very sore boobs and sick hungry.

Still early days for me but fingers crossed this one sticks. I hope this helps someone :) Baby dust to all

Just got my bfp two days ago at 12dpo. I started testing at 8dpo with internet cheapies and at 10dpo with FRERs. Consistent BFNs on everything until 12dpo. Also minimal symptoms. Here is my story day by day!

O day: Cramping in general lower belly region, not limited to one side or the other. BD-ing felt crampy too, kind of uncomfortable.
1dpo: crampy and gassy
2dpo: randomly got the hiccups. I know it's prob unrelated but I never get the hiccups so it seemed worth mentioning.
3dpo: very irritable mood all day
4dpo: dry globby cm, kind of nasty. metal taste in mouth on and off, kind of like when you have a nosebleed, but I hadn't had a nosebleed.
5dpo: still abundant globs of white cm.
6dpo: nothing unusual
7dpo: nothing unusual
8dpo: feel like I'm coming down with a cold - scratchy throat. BFN on Clinical Guard cheapie.
9dpo: gastrointestinal issues - horrible gas and cramping. Maybe related to eating beans for lunch? Another BFN on clinical guard.
10dpo: no symptoms at all. BFN on clinical guard and FRER. pretty sure I'm out at this point.
11dpo: no symptoms at all. BFNs everywhere I look. BBT temperature dropped a bit and I'm def feeling out.
12dpo: BBT is up! I decide to take my last FRER and lo and behold a faint but undeniable BFP! Shortly after getting the BFP I began having a crampy/pulling feeling in my pelvis. Not really AF-like cramps - lower and more of a pulling feeling.
13dpo: FRER line darkening, pulling crampy feeling in lower pelvis continues. No other symptoms at all
14dpo: BFP on a digital and line continues to darken. Pelvis cramps continue...they are mild though.

The biggest symptom that I did NOT have at any point and still don't have is sore boobs.

Of course I have been stalking this page for almost 2 years. I finally get to post mine and I am SO excited!!!!
We got pregnant back in May of this year (2017) but we lost that baby in July, on my husband's birthday. Since then, I have had 2 IUI's....the 2nd worked. I did not trigger an I did not take any progesterone before or after the IUI. I was on clomid 100mg on CD3-7. We BD'd on CD10, 14, 15, 16. I o'd on CD 15 and did the IUI on the same day

*O day- Got the positive OPK in the morning and had the IUI at 4 that afternoon (11.22 (the day before Thanksgiving) cramping after the IUI
*3-5DPIUI-My nipples feel like they are going to fall off. THEY HURT!!!! Not the entire breast, just the nipple. I am wondering what's going on because I KNOW it's way too early for pregnancy symptoms. Still cramping but now they are dull and in the background. If I had to guess, I would say they were in my uterus.
*6DPIUI-still cramping and my nipples are still sore. Like, I couldn't hug my kids without tremendous in pain. Still crampy. Constipated.
*7DPIUI- took my first test...BFN with FRER, walmart first signal and internet cheapie. I'm thinking it's still really early so I didn't really get upset about the negative. My appetite has increased, but that happens as it gets close to my period so i don't think anything of. I am gassier than usual. Nipples still hurt. Still crampy
*8-9DPIUI- took a test (internet cheapie)...BFN nipples are still sore but not as bad as it before. This has me worried. I am thinking "If I were pregnant, my symptoms would be increasing, not decreasing." very emotional. Secretly loosing hope but still telling myself that it's still early
*10DPIUI- tested with an internet cheapie. BFN. nipples have gone from sore to tender. EXTREMELY emotional. Cried over small stuff, things that i would not normally cry over (example: the dishwasher had not been unloaded). Appetite is still increased. My dog started following me around and being clingy. She would not let me out of her sight
*11DPIUI- tender nipples still have those dull cramps in my lower abdomen area. It feels like my uterus. BFN on FRER and internet cheapie. I cried today. Still feeling out this month because I feel like "I should have more symptoms by now" and "the last time, by this time, i had a BFP already" and "it seems like everybody else has gotten their BFP days ago"
*12DPIUI- decided not to test. I didn't think that I I could handle seeing another negative. I had a complete breakdown wondering when my time was coming. short tempered and very emotional. My beta was scheduled for today but I cancelled because I didn't want to pay ($40 copay) for my doctor to tell me that I am not pregnant. Just an emotional day
*13DPIUI- Decided at the last moment to test...faint positive on the first signal test. Tried FRER using the same sample (FMU)...faint positive. Tested again using SMU on a first signal, darker line. Went to the store and bought 2 boxes of clearblue digitals, 1 box (3 count) FRER, 5 first signal tests. Clearblue gave me those words that I have been waiting SO long to see....PREGNANT. Went in for a blood test to confirm. HCG was at 29. Progesterone as at 24. By my calculations, I am 3 weeks and 5 days today. The doctor says I don't need to be on any progesterone supplement as of now. I go back in on Thursday to make sure my HCG has doubled as it should.

Hi everyone. This page gave me hope every cycle of TTC and I promised to share once I receive mine :)

I promise you, for every cycle of 17 months TTC, I have symptoms like sore boobs, bloated abdomen, mild nausea, sore throat, tiredness and vivid dreams. Gave me hope everytime, only to be crushed by arriving AF :( I have since forced myself to accept those "symptoms" as sign of AF.

This month, I tried hard not to symptom spot but of course difficult when it becomes a habit to do so for more than a year! So on to the symptoms:

1-3 DPO: hard, low cervix (sign O ended). Glue like cm but only in small amount now and then. Some soreness on side of BB (normal post O)

4 DPO : medium and soft cp. Feels a bit open. Odd. Am I out? Really sore under left armpit. Couldn't even wear a bra to work. Here's hoping!

5DPO: high cp, odd flaky white cm

6 DPO: feels very warm to the touch but not having fever. CP change to medium and pointed. :(

7 DPO - 9 DPO: CP fluctuates everyday! Sometimes its medium, sometimes very low its almost at the "door"!! But never went back high. Os itself remains soft throughout. Was worried abt not getting high cp.

10 DPO - EWCM. Ok. It must be high estrogen thus its AF coming :( very very wet EWCM. Better than O. Haha. CP medium height and medium soft/hard. Basically nothing notable with cp. Slight aches on back tooth.

11 DPO - AF cramps!! :( lower back pain when I wake up. CP normal. Nothing noticeable. Lesser EWCM. More whitish glue but leaves wet patch on undies. Noticed wet patch three times throughout the day.

12 DPO - lower back pain when waking up. White thicker cm with wet patches on undies. Sore BB come and go. Sleepy by 5 but thats not new to me. Hehe. Sorry TMI - loose stool

13 DPO - lower back pain waking up. SUPER LOW CP! barely had to reach up. Feels moist and wet inside cervix but otherwise dry outside. Hungry and ate foot-long subway for brunch. First time ever. More loose stool.

14 DPO - pressure in uterus when waking up. Cant lie on tummy. Had odd dark and soft stool 4 times between morning to afternoon! (TMI sorry! Need to be said!) CP medium high and soft. Skin very warm, fluctuating between 36.9 and 37.0 when I am usually 36.6. Light crampings. Craved steak. Tested in the evening after a game of bowling (worried I overexert myself) and BFP!!! :D

I waited so long to see the pink line and had spent a lot of time squinting and turning tests and forcing DH to agree that there IS a line. So surreal to see a prominent pink line :))

Some other things I notice: greasier, heavier hair. Small zits around mouth at 12 DPO. A general feeling of content and happiness. Vivid dreams at 12, 13 DPO.
No nausea at all this month when I usually get it before AF in TWW previous months!

What I did differently this month: took pregnancy pill right after AF this cycle. No coffee at all. Tried to make sure fertile cm is abundant during BD. Prayed so much for it.

Hope this helps someone the way thess BFP stories had helped me through my TWW :) it came as a relief after receiving news that I have a fibroid of 2cm in my womb.

All the best everyone :) I pray for BFP for all those trying.

I wanted to submit my 2 experiences so that anyone that experiences the first what was probably an early loss, can find some comfort that you can still get your BFP on the next cycle.

I am 36, first baby, NTNP since June but 'actively' trying for around 5 cycles. Not temping or using OPK, just going by 'every other day' from around CD 8 TO CD 18 as I have 30-32 day cycles and get a slight bleed after ovulation so know this is roughly CD16.
I have very mild PCOS but regular cycles and OV. Just a hairy chin all the time!!

Disclaimer: TMI is gonna be in every other sentence.

TWW1 - CP? MMC?

DPO 1 - Light bleed and strong headache suspect OV took place in last 24hrs
DPO 2 - Full with gas/bloated
DPO 3 - I blacked out after 1 lap (0.4km) of my jogging. I average 5-10k 3 or 4 times a week so I definitely wasn't over doing it. Husband said.. 'You're pregnant' (it's his second so I trusted him)
DPO 4 - Vivid dreams and gas. A random strong aversion to husbands smelly cigarette hands that were resting on the table next to me.
DPO 5 - Vivid dreams and lower back ache.
DPO 6 - Constipated. Pin prick of brown blood when wiping.
DPO 7 - Light brown spotting, headache in afternoon, dry/itchy throat, hello chin pimple! (Convinced the spotting was Imp. bleeding)
DPO 8 - Vivid dream, Gas, Constipated, Spotting brown blood still, sore throat.
DPO 9 - Spotting still, stuffy nose and sore throat (probably caught from very unwell husband). Insomnia
DPO 10 - Bloating, sore throat, very emotional!
DPO 11 - Full on cold/flu
DPO 12 - Bloated with gas, constipated, still have the cold, hair is greasing up every other day, can usually manage 2 days.
DPO 13 - Cold still
DPO 14 - BFN with FMU. AF twinges and very low mood.
DPO 15 - Gas, very emotional, Headache
DPO 16 - Vivid dreams, bloated, AF twinges
DPO 17 - Gas, AF cramps, headache.
DPO 18 - No AF still on CD34 - BFN on FMU.
DPO 19 - Cough not shifting, learned how to check my cervix and found it high and closed.
DPO 20 - Now CD36 still no AF. Spotted brown blood after 5k jogging. Sharp pain in left side.
DPO 21 - Spotting again when wiping.
DPO 22 - Brighter red spotting
DPO 23 - Strong cramps, heavy clotted bleeding - I'm out. Wasn't so hopeful after the BFN's anyway but was worried something was wrong with me that I couldn't carry :-(

Next cycle:

DPO 1 - Moody, tight bloated gassy feeling
DPO 2 - Moody, slight brown spotting when I checked my cervix.
DPO 3 - Constipated, sharp pain on left hip area.
DPO 4 - Nipples started to be very sensitive to touch. This didn't happen last month and it was weird as since I had breast reduction surgery in 2013, I have never really had full sensitivity in my nipples, they have been relatively numb so this was a bit of a weird one. They were also constantly erect! Winner!
DPO 5 - Nothing, only sensitive nipples
DPO 6 - Gassy, sensitive nipples.
DPO 7 - Extremely low mood.
DPO 8 - Still very low mood and angry - nipples the same (and continue to be)
DPO 9 - Nothing
DPO 10 - Angry again (Poor husband) - had a very sharp pull pain on the left.. around 5-10 seconds where I had to stop and let it pass.
DPO 11 - Really gross sex dream. Couldn't even talk about it.
DPO 12 - Pully pains again on left, urination frequency up.
DPO 13 - Constipation, AF mild cramps
DPO 14 - Nipples are still sensitive, constipated, pulling feeling again on left, like really painful trapped gas.. yet my gas was definitely not trapped if you catch my drift!
DPO 15 - Constipated, still getting mild on/off AF cramps and waiting for her to arrive. Was not hopeful at all. Gassy and evening shattered, fell asleep 6-8pm and had a headache that wouldn't shift.
DPO 16 - Vivid dream, AF cramps getting stronger and feel like she is coming any minute but CP is high, closed and hard. Smelly gas (sorry).
DPO 17 - Very moody, AF Twinges still, at night in bed I had a very strong tightening and painful cramp that went on 10-15 secs in my abdomen. Was a little confused by this point as it was not AF cramp.
DPO 18 - No appetite (this seems to be the norm) Nips still sensitive this whole time. Getting thirsty after drinking. Another strong intense cramp again when I was in bed, same as previous night, almost unbearable.
DPO 19 - Constipated (seems also to be the norm now). Still high, closed cervix but with white CM (I don't produce a lot at all so this was hard to monitor). Zingy pain in left boob/nipple. Gassy
DPO 20 - Feels like a full heavy uterus pain. still no AF but strong cramps in that region that are a bit sharper and more isolated than AF cramps. Nose is dry and a bit painful.
DP0 21 - BFP with FMU.

Still feeling fine, boobs don't ache, only the nipples, only mild nausea once so far. I am 5 weeks and 2 days. No tiredness yet.. got so much to come! Due Aug 2018.

Today is 10th Dec so am planning Christmas day reveal (I live overseas) to close family and friends. It's my mum's first grandchild and as I am 36 you can appreciate how long she has been waiting for this! Can't wait to tell her!

Good luck ladies, try not to think there is something wrong with you if you aren't successful even after symptoms.
Baby dust xxx

I've stalked this site the last few months and had promised to upload my story when the time came.
I'm 37 and we've been trying since the last 5 months.
My doctor had scared me saying I have low serve of eggs and some cysts on my right ovary which may make the odds unfavourable.

What was different this time? Honestly, this was the first cycle where I tracked my O day with OPKs and noted my O pain and did the BD every other day starting 1 week before the expected O day until 3 days after. I used an Ovulation calculator which took into account my cycle length (32 days). I also stayed in bed for 20 mins after with a pillow under my hips.

Ok.. here goes.. the symptoms per dpo!!

1 dpo - 5 dpo : gassy. Cm - white bits on wiping. Sniffles start at 4 dpo.

6 dpo : gassy all day. Runny nose. Intense lower back pain and strange cramps in lower belly. Shooting pain through bb for about 5 minutes.... never felt that before (I suspected implantation that day) Cm still not ewcm which is what I normally have at 6 dpo before AF! Relieved.

7 dpo: Very very hungry. All the time. Which is just not me. Cm yellowish globs on wiping. Nose very stuffy at night. Nipples hurt.

8 dpo: tested with FMU ... BFN. stuffy nose, gassy, very hungry. Cm creamy glob but only when I wipe.

9 dpo: no symptoms at all other than stuffy nose. Cm still yellow glob on wiping. EXTREMELY emotional ... felt I was on an emotional roller coaster ride. (This is what my biggest clue was! ) however I was majorly upset that I had no symptoms.

10 dpo: woke up thinking my crazy emotions weren't usual.. tested with FMU ....... Very faint line... but BFP !!! Emotions still running haywire all day. Bad headache in the evening (I almost never get a headache)

11 -13 dpo: nausea through the day. Hungry as well. Headache which eades wuth rest. Emotions still crazy. Tested each morning... line doesn't darken.. but it's there. Very dark line on 12 dpo with an OPK strip!! ALL with FMU

14 dpo: Boobs sore... hurting. Tested at night.... BFP!! it's still not too dark but my friend who's an OBGYN says it's a BFP!! :-)

Thanks so much to all those who've posted here and made my two weeks wait bearable.

Tons of good wishes and baby dust to all the ttc-ers.
Enjoy the BD... and fx!!

Hi Ladies!
I wanted to come on here and share my story for those of you who are impatient, frustrated, and fed-up!

My husband and I have been trying to conceive since June 2017. Not an incredibly long time, I know, but feels like eons for someone like me! Each month was one BFN after another and I couldn't take the constant disappointment.
I started monitoring at a fertility clinic, which was the best decision I ever made! Why? Because they took all the guess work out of this already calculating process.
For 2 months, I went in day after day for blood work and ultrasound until they told me i was ovulation and should dtd. Once you do, they prescribed me Prometrium vaginal supplements to assist with my luteal phase. I was on Prometrium beginning 1 DPO for 2 cycles which can cause pregnancy-like symptoms. Also, keep in mind, I am the worst symptom spotter! I get lost in message boards. Anyway were my symptoms prior to getting BFP while on Prometrium:

Nov 27th 1 DPO: No symptoms. Started Prometrium morning and night
2 DPO: no symptoms
3 DPO: mild pressure in lower stomach and upper vag towards end of day. Thinking it may be a tummy ache and too early for symptoms
4 DPO: Increase in CM by end of day. Probably the Prometrium
5 DPO: Chunky cottage-cheese-like CM. Probably the Prometrium
6 DPO: No symptoms. CM returned to normal
7 DPO: cramps and bloating but chalked it up to eating bad food
8 DPO: left boob a little sore near armpit, but not to the touch. Might be in my head
9 DPO: boobs slightly sore on and off
10 DPO: boobs slightly sore and weird sharp pain to the right of my belly button on and off
11 DPO: boobs slightly sore. mild cramps by end of day
12 DPO: boobs slightly sore
13 DPO: slightly sore boobs, dull headache. Boobs look a little bigger but probably in my head
14 DPO: tired but i just made a big brunch for my family. Boobs slightly sore
December 11th 15 DPO: Upper and middle back hurting, boobs slightly sore, dry CM, cervix low, hard, and closed. Went in to the clinic this morning for my blood test and they called to tell me i'm 4 weeks and 1 day pregnant! I'm in shock I got my BFP!!! It's so unreal to me but I wanted this message board to be the first place, the first people I tell about my pregnancy (I will surprise my husband tonight). Boards and sites like these were so incredibly helpful and insightful and not only got me through the dreaded 2ww, but the 9 months we tried to conceive.

Ladies, I urge you to share your stories and symptoms because it truly helps those going through the process!

If anyone has questions, please let me know!

Hello ladies! I stalked this site while we were TTC and so I wanted to share my symptoms by DPO. My husband and I married later in life so he has two kids and I have two. I 'm 34 and we've been married for 5 years. Been trying to talk him into one more babies for 5 years and I FINALLY did it. Took us 4 months of TTC. I had SWORN I was pregnant last month but wasn't. This month was a little different for me than what I was expecting but it all seems to make sense now.

CD 14 Pos O test
CD 15 Pos O test
CD 16 Neg O test. This was the first time I used ovulation tests so I went with CD 15 as ovulation.
1dpo-nothing
2dpo- bloated, cramps
3dpo-very specific twinges/discomfort in one area. Crampy, gassy, bloated
4dpo-Thirsty. I SO WANT chicken noodle soup. More BM then normal??(sorry tmi) Fatigue, bloating, cramps, diarrhea, gas
5dpo-Nauseous after eating. Isolated discomfort lower left pelvic area. Sore throat at night. Hungry, cramps, bloating, gas
6dpo-diarrhea, tired, bloating, cramps
7dpo-cramps, bloating, tired, cramps
**why in the world have I been cramping all week? I NEVER cramp until a couple of days before AF. And this gas and bloating is getting old**
8dpo-cramps, tired, bloated, gas, chills and now the headaches begin
9dpo-same symptoms but don't seem as bad today. BFN. I'm thinking I'm out again.
**waiting for my boobs to hurts since that was the first symptom both previous kids**
10dpo-more normal type AF cramps. yep, totally thinking I'm out. Spotted once. I tend to spot before my period so thinking here it comes. Check all day and only that ONE time of spotting. Weird.
11dpo-BFN again. Thanksgiving so I had some wine with the family. Making me feel sick. Strange.
12dpo-BFN again. Same symptoms just not as noticable
13dpo-very very faint BFP! I don't believe it. I POS and then fell back asleep so evap line? It was an internet cheapy. I wait until I have to pee again and pee on one of those that say pregnant or not pregnant in words and holy **** it says pregnant!
14dpo-heartburn. I think I'm having a heart attack and might die in my sleep. ;) still tired and crampy
15dpo-I'm so hot... I'm never hot, always cold. still all the same symptoms then bleeding gums and hot flashes/chills get added to the mix.

I'm now 6w3d and go to my first visit next week. The cramps from the start were very abnormal for me. Still no sore boobs which has freaked me out the entire time. I know every pregnancy is different, but that was my norm for the last couple pregnancies. Mostly tired, get sick to my stomach after I eat. NOT hungry because of upset stomach. Headaches off and on and SOOOO Thirsty. Good luck to you ladies!

Hi, I've been watching this site for over 4 years hoping to conceive after 2 mc and 7 chemicals.
I would like to share my experience in the 2 ww to make people who are trying to conceive see that you don't need every symptom in the book before you get your bfp.
Cd10 - ovulation/ using opks
1dpo - nothing
2dpo- nothing
3dpo - sharp pain in left on and off through the day
4dpo - nothing
5dpo- nothing
6dpo- nothing
7dpo - tiny little spot on pantyliner of dark brown
Big cramp like a pulled muscle on the right side/ implantion
8dpo - headaches
9dpo - headaches/ a little bloated / diareah
10dpo - BFP with frer
I did 4 tests that day with fmu and afternoon and no other test was positive only the frer and a dark line to.
11dpo - all other tests had faint line
I am now 5 weeks and hoping for a sticky bean hope this helps women who are thinking if they don't have symptoms then your not pregnant I only had a feeling off a pulled muscle in my side for at least 3 days.

I am a very impatient woman and this site helped me pass the time while waiting. This is my second pregnancy and we got pregnant on our third cycle. I used the fertility friend app and measured my temperatures and cm to help me pinpoint ovulation. Here is my day by day symptoms.

1 DPO: woke up with a surge of EWCM and did BD
1-2 DPO: headache and fatigue
3 DPO: bloating and cramps (very slight)
4 DPO: increased sex drive and another EWCM which made me think. What the hec? I later read that this can mean you ovulate more than one egg. We shall see! Did BD again.
6 DPO until now: here come the sore, tender and swollen breasts! Usually this only happens 5 days before my period so this is when I knew for sure I was pregnant. Would wake up and my breasts were like a size or two larger and heavier than normal.
Other symptoms: fatigue. Went to bed at 7:30 for no good reason on a Monday night at 7 DPO.
Off and on from about 6 DPO: Gassy, bloated, increased appetite, more backache than normal, and frequent urination.

Biggest thing for me was the breasts. There’s no way I could miss it. All of the other cycles my breasts were not nearly so different and it was too far from AF.

Also: I just felt pregnant. I just had an intuitive sense. I know this sounds a bit silly but it’s hard to describe. As a side note, I also was craving healthy food throughout the 2WW from 6 DPO on.
Tested in the middle of the night at 12 DPO and it was negative and I started to doubt myself for a moment and then realized that I need to test first thing in the morning and wait a bit. At 14 DPO it was positive with First response.

I've read many of these stories, and at times they made me feel a little closer to two beautiful lines that mean that my s/o and I are going to be parents. These are symptoms for you to obsess over ;), even though they were surprisingly few: 1dpo-11dpo- a couple of bloody noses when I woke up. Chalked it up to the heat. I remember being surprised at how little cramping I had after ovulation because I usually have more. 12dpo boobs started getting a burning sensation through out, but it was on and off so I didn't put too much into it. 13dpo boobs still tingling/sore. Which was pretty normal for me, but this seemed later in my cycle for it to happen. Temp also was still up.
14dpo woke up and removed, still very high. Temp would definitely be down today with period dye. Gulped, and tested. When I thought I saw a vvvvfl on the wondfo I tested on a dollar tree cheapo. I didn't wait long enough, and started blubbering and crying, asking why my temp was still up if the tests were negative. Went and laid back down and pouted for a bit, but shrugged it off and mentally started planning for January to try as December we wouldn't be able to. I was getting ready to get on with the day when I thought I'd take one more look, and both had a line! I immediately pulled another wondfo and dollar tree test(different kind this time), and faint positives on both. Took another wondfo while I sat in shock. Still in shock and it's hours later! Took a first response after a six hour pee hold and there is no doubt a line! After trying eleven times with four different donors for two years it felt like it wouldn't happen, but it totally did and I am so blessed and feeling so much ridiculous joy. I'll do my very best to never take this for granite. So many many rowdy blessings to you who are on the ttc train. I know it starts to make you second guess your instincts, but do your best to listen to them anyway. Baby dust!!!

At only 5 months PP we were not really trying so much as vaguely assuming (silly us) that we didn't have to think much about it because my cycles had only just come back and were really long and hadn't regulated yet (it took nearly a year PP with the first to get my cycles back) and I was still breastfeeding part-time. I figured I probably wasn't even ovulating yet and wasn't worried either way.

I track my periods so I can fill in approximate dpo by that.

- 6-7 dpo my usual breakfast of two cups of coffee now soured my stomach
- 8 dpo i noticed my nipples are super sensitive when they rub the edges of my bra and even through my shirt at times. (Since I'm bfing this was a very sudden change)
- 9 dpo (only day 25 of my cycle!) I thought I'd be clever and test my symptom spotting away. Surely I am just noticing things. Nope. Definitely not. Positive within a minute on ClinicalGuard (Amazon dip strip test).
- 10-11dpo lots of bloaty gassy feeling in my lower belly
-12dpo Strong Positive on ClinicalGuard (pictured)

Must have ovulated straight out of the gate.
We weren't yet "ready" to start trying but a gift is a gift. We're over the moon.

AHH!! Oh my gosh, you guys have helped me get through 4 months of ttc by giving me hope!!! I hope my story can help others the way every story on here helped me!!

Things I believed helped!!
-Megadose on vitamin C the 2 weeks before O
- Glucorein HOP (all natural and safe PCOS treatment that is available on amazon. Please please please do your research on this ladies. This thing is a freakin miracle drug!! Helped my hirituism, acne and weight loss and gave me my periods back! Been on it for 5 months now and the difference in my skin and hair thickness alone is amazing! It's like metformin but ZERO side effects!! And if you're resistant to Clomid this is an EXCELLENT alternative! Please look into it I urge you!!)
-not stressing about it (I know cliche but really!)

Okay now for my symptoms!
1dpo-nothing really
2dpo-slightly sore boobs but I chalk it up to maybe DH having too much fun with them during BD and maybe I didn't notice how rough he might've gotten?
3dpo-goofing around with DH and he grabs my boobs, SO SORE I say "OW!!" Out loud!!!! I push him off and he instantly gasps and says "YOURE PREGNANT!" Look at him and shake my head but then wonder why my boobs are THIS sore, THIS early!! Normally they get sore 5 days before AF but not nearly 2 weeks before!!! Right after he says it I get a shooting pain in what feels like my right ovary
4dpo- CAN YOU SAY EXHAUSTED?? Felt like I couldnt sleep enough! Boobs sore and now nipples getting tender when I put bra on in morning
5dpo- boobs heavy and sore, skin on face is dry and itchy instead of normal slightly oily skin. Odd. SOO sleepy.
6dpo-sore boobs, sore nipples, dryyyy perfect skin! No need to powder my nose anymore! Slept nearly all day!
7dpo-fell asleep at my desk I'm so exhausted even though I've been sleeping nearly constantly. Boobs so so so sore. Emotional at nothing.
8dpo-by now I normally crave spicy fried chicken and chocolate during my PMS week. No cravings! Boobs so heavy and sore now that I can't take bra off after work because it hurts too much! Flawless skin! Hair looks thicker!
9dpo- still no cravings, get snappy with DH for no reason. Sore boobs. Sleepy. Start to get a sore throat and stuffed nose..I blame the weather change but apparently it's a thing!
10dpo- straight up sick. Call into work and sleep all day. No appetite or cravings whatsoever. So thirsty and sore boobs as always haha
11dpo- cramping that felt like very very light af cramps during the early morning. Nose is stuffed and all my lymph nodes are swollen. Low grade fever and sore throat persist. Sore heavy boobs.no appetite only thirst. Got a cramp in left foot.
12dpo-feeling slightly better but still exhausted. No cramping. No pms cravings. No appetite. Moody. Felt pregnant.. like.. I just knew at that point. This was the first cycle I ever had such sore boobs early on and I knew it meant something important. Hair on head thicker than ever. Skin flawless. No usual PMS breakouts! decided to test next morning.
13dpo-almost instantly 2nd pink line pops up next to control line on FRER with FMU!! BFP!!!! so dark! Never thought I'd see the day! Best Christmas gift ever for me and DH

Also throughout whole 2ww I had vivid dreams and towards the end it felt like I was a bloodhound. I could smell everything!!! Metallic taste in mouth set in around 12dpo!!

Good luck ladies!!! I really hope this helps!!!!!
