Question from someone who is hopeful

xcitedbride2009 · February 2013

Hey ladies, I don't belong here at least not yet but I have been lurking during my 2WW because if I am PG, my due date according to FF would be 10/23. I am hopeful this cycle because DH's bday is in just 8 days and I would love to get a BFP.

Ok so my question, did any of you feel like you were coming down with a cold before you got your BFP? I have googled this and it seems that it could be common because your immune system is lowered during early pregnancy. I have a stuffy/runny nose, sneezing, and I just felt weak all over. I also have one more phantom symptom, I have had a clear discharge since last Friday, almost like watery CM but not......

I took a FRER test on 11 DPO with a BFN and this morning on which was suppose to be 13 DPO and again, BFN. My chart is in my siggy.

Thank you for any response

No cold here...I just felt like a bad AF was coming, but just never did. Gl to you

Thank you for the quick response!

I had a cold when I O'd so I was still miserably sick when I got my BFP... Good luck and FX!

Nice chart though!

xcitedbride2009 · February 2013

Thanks ladies. I'm done testing for a few days, maybe I will join y'all soon!

Yes, I had a cold the day I got my BFP.

I've also had colds before when I wasn't pregnant, so the two might not be connected.

No cold, but I got STARVING at 3DPO-8DPO.... stopped 9DPO and tested positive at 10 DPO. Being hungry all the time came back at 11 DPO for a bit. I personally think that cold symptoms due to early pregnancy is rare to nada.... rather most are just actually getting sick.

I had no cold-type symptoms. At 10 DPO I had watery CM and cramping and was sure AF was coming. At 11 DPO my temp went up to the highest one I'd had since I started charting so I decided to test and got my BFP.

I think my O date may be a few days wrong. Anyways, thank you so much for replying ladies!

No cold symptoms here either.. All I had was sore boobs from 6 dpo on.. Still have them! I got my BFP at 10 DPO and O'd on Jan. 31 I believe. My due date is 10/22

I have had a cold since I found out I was pregnant. I received a BFP, last Monday, and I had cold symptoms leading up to that day. But I also have a one yr son in daycare, so colds are a regular thing in my household Confused

I thought I was getting AF - bloated, cramps, but no cold. Everyone is different. Buy wondofos. If I got a line on a wondercheapiestrip, as I call them, then I peed on a FRER. Once I got two lines on a FRER, I peed on a digital. I'm cheap, cheap, cheap!

Yes I was sick for a week around the time I got my bfp.

kaswanson · February 2013

I had a nasty cold (our whole house did) a week or two leading up to BFP.

Melonhead242 · February 2013

Definitely got a cold. A bad one that lasted 2 weeks! Good luck to you!

I didn't chart...I did however have a longer luetal phase that month because I ovulated earlier...so waiting for AF seemed even longer. My boobs were just more sore and I felt like I was going to start. In all honesty you really just need to see if you miss your period. My boobs did not hurt (like I want ot rip them off hurt until the day I missed my period.)

No cold here. I did notice a watery CM when I wiped & my boobs were killing me for a few days before I tested. I waited to test because it felt like I was going to get my period. Very similar cramps/backache that I usually get before my period.
