Unfortunatley. It's been 9 months now &amp; thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-522223 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 15:08:36 +0000 Vegmama 522223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTiz: Who knows. The body is crazy! One symptom I forgot to mention (but posted about it on here, then) was a sore throat around O. So ... maybe 4-6 days after. I thought I was getting sick, but it only lasted a couple of days, and otherwise, I felt just fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-521909 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 13:46:04 +0000 Bao 521909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTiz: I had no idea you were even TTC, good luck! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-521901 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 13:44:10 +0000 MrsTiz 521901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@VEGMAMA: How strange that they were worse for your BFN! Hm. I'm feeling dull cramps as well as a headache. My nose is a little stuffy, annnd I'm not having trouble going to the bathroom where I am usually constipated. Fingers crossed for us both! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-521798 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 13:25:47 +0000 Vegmama 521798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTiz: I have two different answers for you ... 2 months ago, I had my first BFP (ended in CP), and this month, it was regular ol' AF. I have a 33 day cycle. </p> <p>BFP:<br /> 7 dpo - Very sore nipples. My breasts felt heavy &amp; itchy. I am very small chested normally, so it was something I noticed right away.<br /> 8-9 dpo - My nipples were noticeably larger &amp; so were my breasts. I remember feeling really warm &amp; tired.<br /> 10 dpo - POAS, BFN. I was starting to feel a bit of nausea, and I was really sensitive to smells.<br /> 11 - 13 dpo - Really crampy. I thought AF was coming. My breasts were even more tender.<br /> 14 dpo - No AF, so I decided to POAS again, and got the BFP.<br /> 16 dpo - Found out about the CP ... my breasts were immediately back to normal (no soreness) ... </p> <p>AF (seriously thought I was going to get a BFP):<br /> 6 dpo - nausea<br /> 7 dpo - nausea even worse<br /> 8-9 - nothing<br /> 10 dpo - mild cramps &amp; I felt really hot<br /> 12-13 - mild cramps &amp; tender breasts.<br /> 14 dpo - nothing<br /> 15 dpo - AF</p> <p>Wishing you so much luck!!! I'm excited to get pregnant again (this time with a sticky baby) to see how the symptoms show themselves. I think symtom spotting is totally normal, and honestly, it's a little bit fun. Enjoy the rest of the TWW, and I am sending lots of baby dust!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519635 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 14:49:43 +0000 Mrs. Blue 519635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here's a blog post about my early symptoms by DPO: </p> <p><a href="http://www.hellobee.com/2012/08/10/early-pregnancy-symptoms/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hellobee.com/2012/08/10/early-pregnancy-symptoms/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519619 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 14:45:40 +0000 photojane 519619@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My only symptom was implantation bleeding. I felt exactly the same otherwise. I had a feeling/intuition though! Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519598 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 14:35:52 +0000 MamaMoose 519598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My two symptoms prior to BFP were sore boobs (started earlier in my cycle than it normally does for PMS) and feeling super super bloated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519594 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 14:34:19 +0000 Foodnerd81 519594@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here is what I posted to the thread @JoJoGirl: linked to:</p> <p>6DPO- boobs were super sore<br /> 7DPO- light cramping in the evening. Felt like mild menstrual cramps, but lower.<br /> 8DPO- more cramping. Headache (but could have been unrelated)<br /> 9DPO- boobs hurt, feel 'weird', BFN.<br /> 10DPO- my notes say "felt weird. Not nausea, just weird'? BFN.<br /> 11DPO- very, very, very faint positive test. Didn't trust it.<br /> 12DPO- BFP! Also, horrible migraine. I got menstrual migraines when I went off the pill, so I guess hormones play a big part in my migraines.<br /> So, the only thing really different from a normal cycle was the cramping. My boobs always got sore after O so I wasn't sure if I should count that, but the implantation cramping was definitely new. Good luck. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519528 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 14:12:30 +0000 MrsTiz 519528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoJoGirl: Oooh, thank you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519513 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 14:08:24 +0000 Bookish 519513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nothing, actually. I didn't have any DPO symptoms! I thought I might get a BFP because I had ovulation pain, but when I tested, it was just a *hunch,* and I was right! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519510 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 14:07:44 +0000 JoJoGirl 519510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had weird AF-like cramping almost the whole time, starting at maybe 4dpo. Then I had brown CM which I think was implantation spotting around 7dpo and my BFP at 9dpo. </p> <p>This thread was my bible for all my TWWs:<br /> <a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tww-symptoms-by-dpo#post-62433" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tww-symptoms-by-dpo#post-62433</a><br /> :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519508 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 14:07:24 +0000 Springtime 519508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Crampy and tender breasts, good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519503 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 14:05:32 +0000 immabeetoo 519503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had incredibly painful cramps that woke me up at night at maybe 10 days or so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519490 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 14:01:27 +0000 mlm2934 519490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Really no symptoms at all! I had just the mildest cramps and boob soreness, but nothing out of the ordinary. Symptoms still haven't kicked in for me </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519450 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 13:45:08 +0000 Alivoo01 519450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My lower abdomen was making "funny noises", like it was popping popcorn. That was the only different symptom from when AF was impending. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519405 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 13:26:25 +0000 SleepyMonkey 519405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i had a headache for 3 days straight. i also had period cramps so i thought AF was coming! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519374 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 13:11:06 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 519374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I felt period cramps for five days before I tested. Each day I was sure I was going to start my period because I felt so crampy...but I never did! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519366 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 13:07:12 +0000 MapleMoose 519366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The utter exhaustion was my signal.

The stuffy nose started at like 5 or 6 dpo and the cramps started a couple days later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519338 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 12:54:23 +0000 Smurfette 519338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All I can remember is sore boobs and nipples and feeling bloated. More so then I had in the previous months. I had one little tiny brown spot on 9DPO, that I guess was implantation spotting, well spot. The biggest clue was that I didn't spot the one or two days before my period was due, like I had the 2 months before. I went right off BC to TTC. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519333 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 12:51:41 +0000 sorrycharlie 519333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>agree with @bao! I just had a gut feeling that month! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519327 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 12:47:50 +0000 Bao 519327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I felt nothing. The months I wasn't pregnant, I had more "symptoms", seriously. I had twinges about 7 DPO that lasted only maybe a minute and were pretty noticeable, but that's it. My OB said I would have sore boobs and that would probably be my first symptom, I never once throughout my entire pregnancy had sore boobs. My first symptom came at 6-7 weeks and that was morning sickness. I tested at 13 DPO thinking I would get a BFN but it was the darkest line ever and I took a bunch more tests because I felt no different. LO is almost 5 months :) Good luck!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dpo-symptoms#post-519319 Tue, 22 Jan 2013 12:42:43 +0000 MrsTiz 519319@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Those of you who got BFP's.. what were your symptoms like before you actually tested?</p> <p>I'm 6 DPO right now and I'm curious to see what others felt like leading up to when you can actually see a BFP </p>
