So where to begin...
I figured that I owe it to the people on here to also post my story because I have stalked this site many times before! My fiance and I were not trying to fall pregnant, but if its meant to be I guess it just happens. I am 26 and my partner is 29, I don't track ovulation but can tell when I have O'd because I get slight cramps then my boobs hurt afterwards, and I have regular cycles between 28-30 days.
Ok, so here is the story everyone gets on here to read about, the BFP story by CD and DPO:
CD (DPO)
01 - shark week starts
05 - shark week ends
13 - just starting to get EWCM, we had a big accident in the bed room...
14 - lots of EWCM, start getting O pains, boobs feel like there are about to get sore
15 - O day, glands are up, slight sore throat, nose like a tap in the morning, O pain, boobs start to hurt
16 (1 DPO) - boobs tender (normal), sore throat and swollen glands gone, slight cramps, noticed heart burn after jalapenos (not normal!) went out for drinks that night, bit bloated
17 (2 DPO) - hungover, sore boobs, ulcer in mouth which I assume is to do with the alcohol
18 (3 DPO) - couldn't eat all my breakfast, boobs still sore (normal), super mild aches in my uterus (I think I could be making it up because I knew we had a woopsy in the bedroom), bloated, feeling some prickling 'down there' like I'm getting thrush maybe? Odd because I don't get that unless I'm on antibiotics which is rare!
19 (4 DPO) - mild aches continues in my uterus, prickling 'down there', gassy, thirsty, weird pains in my boob (I cant really find words for the pain.. totally unusual, but only in patches on my boobs not the whole boob?)
20 (5 DPO) - Slight headaches, boobs less sore so I assume my period is close because they stop hurting a few days before it starts gassy, mild period pains (implantation??), thirsty, running nose in the morning, some .. zinging? in my boobs
21 (6 DPO) - boobs mildly sore, gassy, some sharp pricks but nothing too unusual, low back ache but only slightly (I feel like I could be making it all up in my head), HPT negative (well duuuhhhh way to early why did I waste the money!)
22 (7 DPO) - boobs mildly sore, the every now and then aching deep in my boobs (morning only), mild headaches, are my nipples darker? surely not?, yellow cm on TP (not totally crazy I have had that other cycles), HTP negative (why do I do this to myself) but I feel like I might be pregnant.... just unusually calm about it at the moment..
23 (8 DPO) - getting that deep boob ache again, its only in patched of my boob and is gone by the afternoon, mild cramps like digestive issues maybe
24 (9 DPO) - deep boob ache again, sore upper back (might be from yoga), FMU - HPT (FRER)... is there.. a faint line? like a squinter... was looking at it all day... I could see a faint faint line where the line should be but then... is it an indent?
25 (10 DPO) - today... clear as day. BFP with FMU at 10 DPO with FRER, its not as dark as the control but it is absolutely undeniable.. absolute shock....!!!
So there it is, I did get symptoms before implantation cramping but there were mild but I am quite in tuned with my body, I just.. knew? but also completely doubted myself because I have thought i 'knew' before.. It was different I hope this helps all you other ladies :)
