BFP symptoms

SayAXO · April 2013

I'm in my 2WW and though I continuously tell myself that I am going to stay away from these boards and it is in Gods hands, I can't seem to stay away. I need a little help staying positive. I know that most of my symptoms can be side effects of the progesterone gel, but I did have brown spotting at 6dp5dt. That has to be good, right??

My Question: What were the symptoms that you had during your 2WW that lead to your BFP??

THANKS!

I had zero symptoms. I was so positive that AF was on her way, I felt so PMS-y, that I was packing tampons for my trip before the pee even dried on the stick. I didn't even look at it. Luckily MH did, and asked if that 2nd line was already there before I used it. I was shocked. GL, hopefully that was implantation you experienced!

With DS, absolutely none. In fact I had bright red bleeding and was sure AF was on her way. With the twins, it's hard to explain but I just felt pregnant. It was like I had this sense that I knew it had worked. I also felt m/s super early with them but not before my BFP. It was closer to 5.5 weeks. GL!!!

My symptoms were actually stronger on my BFN cycles. The only things that were somewhat different were an increased sense of smell and food issues. My first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage, but I remember spitting out a hard boiled egg because it tasted off. My coworker actually joked that I could be pregnant. With my boys, DH said he knew because I would ask him what he had for lunch when he got home. And, the smell if my own blood made me nauseated. I also had implantation spotting with both pregnancies.

But, there were other things that were less pronounced than with my negative treatment cycles. With the BFNs, my breasts were larger and hurt more, I was more moody, my skin was worse, the list goes on and on. Unfortunately, that progesterone makes you feel so many pregnancy symptoms. It's really unfair.

Best of luck with your cycle! Hope to see you back over here in nine or so months!

No symptoms here either! I did test10 days past transfer and got positive so I was optimistic going for first blood test. Good luck to you!

With DS and DD#1, the only symptoms I had were cramping - with DS, I had horrible cramps at 7dpiui, so I think they were implantation cramps. Of course at the time, I was sure it was AF coming early, but she never showed. With DD#1, I didn't have a ppAF after DS, so I was just feeling crampy, waiting for AF, and finally took a test and it was BFP.

With DD#2 and my m/c, I knew I was pg based upon my symptoms. Both times I was super bloated, and feeling nauseated. With DD#2, I remember looking for something under my bed, laying on my stomach and my boobs really hurt. I never had any of those symptoms with DS or DD#1!

Good luck to you!

With DS the only "symptom" I had was cramping. I never get cramps before AF. With my M/C I had cramping, nausea, and food adversions all before i tested. I kinda knew i was pregnant before i even tested. Also, I was a super b!tch - which is so not like me.

Good luck!

My boobs were really sore and started to hurt. I was exhausted. I mean absolutely exhausted and I had no idea why. The last symptom that at the time I had no idea was a symptom (sorry this one is TMI) I was totally constipated. Totally rare for me but when I told my RE, she was like, "yup, that's a symptom".

Good luck to you.
