8dpo and....

June 04, 2008

Just curious because every other month I 'thought' I was pregnant, I had signs but this time I have ALOT of signs and I am curious... Tired, pee alot, gums bleeding *more sensitive*, bb's itching, MAJOR headaches, stomach pains. If Im not pregnant I dont know what I am gonna do. We've been ttc#1 for 13-14 months now.. Any advice?! Thanks!

Oh sweetie, only time will tell. ONly a few more days until you can test. I remember that was the same way with me.....I could swear that every month I had symptoms that would mean pregnancy, but of course BFN! Then it happened. PLease take care and keep trying. Tons and tons of baby dust your way!

Hi Laurie, Unless you are on meds, very rarely will u have any preggo symptoms during the TWW. The preggo harmones namely HCG and Progesterone are typically low at around 8 DPO, u would be barely preggo at this point.

With the medical aspect put aside, I feel ya. Ive been there with these stupid phantom symptoms every month infact Ive been nauseas 1 DPO and believed I was preggo. Realised that was just the stress and mind playing games. The month I got preggo, I had no symptoms as I just believed it was going to be a bust as always.

You have age by your side and thats a great thing. So, u are definately gonna get preggo real soon. Have ya seen a Dr yet? May be thats a starting point since u have been TTC for over a year.

Your profile says AF due 5/15. How come you are 8 DPO now? But in anycase Im rooting for ya this cycle. Good Luck

Hi Laurie I fully agree with Hope that is good old progestorne in your system and it can mimic pregnancy signs. What I have learn the best time is to wait and test about 12dpo because you are still in the implatation time.

On another note if you have been ttc for 14 to 15 mths it is time to meet with a Fertility Specialist and also get your dh's sperm and his hormone levels check. Also discuss with that RE doing IUI and fertility meds.

Keep us posted and hopefully it is your mth! ***babydust***

Laurie I felt like that last month. I had symptoms and I could've swore I was pregnant and then other days I could've swore I wasn't. Now I'm 6dpo and feeling very little. This was our natural cycle as we had a cyst but we timed it all perfectly. I think that it's just a waiting game unfortunately. I have read ladies having NO symptoms at all and getting a BFP, so we just have to hang on to that hope. And pray!
