5dp3dt & slowly driving myself mad 🥴

So today I have convinced myself a pulsing in my lower belly is a good sign 😂 Anyone had similar or am I just imagining things ? First time noticed it and it’s really distinctive.

Other symptoms am convinced may be ‘good signs’ (or side effects of progesterone🙈)

Strong sense of smell.

Frequent urination

Up twice through night to pee and drink water as so thirsty.

Really tired

Glowing skin

Feeling fantastic

Can’t stop eating

Slight nausea

The odd twinge here and there, some quite intense (partner reckons it’s down to all the food am demolishing) 😂🤞🏼

Anyone else driving themselves mad ? 🤔

Good luck to all 🍀

Hi hope I'm now 8dp5dt and am blaming thirst on this crazy heat, I've had a few twinges in the first few days then nothing and then I've had some more random twinges slightly on my right side today, no pulsing though.

I dont feel I've really had any symptoms I just feel "fine" apart from that my head is doing overtime not knowing and I'm not due to test till nxt week.

Im just telling myself it's too early to have symptoms so as to not get myself stressed out 😩 xx

I defo think the twinges are a good sign 🤞🏼

You’re right probably way too early & some women have no symptoms at all.

I think as I want this so much am analysing every little thing as I want to believe we have hit the jackpot this time 🤞🏼🙏🏻🍀

Good luck 😘

Yeah you can't help but analyse every little thing. I feel I've successfully read EVERYTHING on Google 🤦‍♀️😂 through sheer desperation to satisfy my urge for some sort of sign or answer to help calm my mind, but no such joy. Lol!!

Im contemplating doing a test on Sunday, which is 2 days early, but if its negative I think I'll stress myself out more for the next 2 days and my OH thinks we should just wait till Tuesday and to be fair to him, I think it has to be a joint decision (I'm just being impatient) xx

Yep me too.

I tested early last time and swore never again as never got the news I wanted. I just caused myself extra heartbreak.

It is so difficult though and although I feel positive about not early testing just now I will probably be desperate to come next week 😂

So plan is to ride it out until OTD on 24/08 which feels like a lifetime away 🙈

Yeah mines the 18th and it feels like ages away, i read some stuff on here with other women saying don't test early because you just make yourself feel more anxious for those days. Ive got 5 pregnancy tests as my friends said to buy some first response ones and then I've bought a 3 pack of clear blue early dector ones as well, is it a normal thing to buy some many tests? Lol. Fingers crossed 🤞 for you though, roll on next week hey?! Xx

Oh my if I had any pregnancy tests in the house I would’ve tested by now. I have learned am best not to have any 😂.

Hope 18th is here before you know it 😘🙏🏻🤞🏼🍀
