TTC#1 Nervous... Please Help!!!

Hello All,

   Sorry for the long post... I just signed up on here today, so I’m not sure if I’m posting this in the right category, lol. I’ve been researching a lot of my symptoms I’ve been having since 4dpo (I know, super early, lol) But I am really wanting to conceive my first child. A little about my cycle, I have a history of irregular cycles. Going back to December 2014, I had a 34 day cycle, January 2015 (39 day cycle), February/March (38 day cycle). So I’m guessing my cycle is now an average of 38 days. The start date of my last period was April 5th 2015- April 9th 2015 (which of course ended in spotting on the 9th). So according to my calendar, I ovulated on April 29th 2015. My dh & I did the baby dance April 27th & 28th (this is our first time ever trying). Anyway, I’m just going to list what’s been going on with my body every since.

1dpo- watery cm
2dpo- same
3dpo- watery cm, mild cramps, exhausted, constipated
4dpo- watery cm in A.M., lotion like cm in evening, cramps were a little more intense, shaky/ weak feeling, exhausted, very moody (I cried looking at a video of someone’s puppy on facebook, lol), constipated, gassy, tender nipples
5dpo- slight watery cm, cramps, lower back cramp like aches, gassy, extremely constipated, tender nipples, exhausted
6dpo- severe cramps woke me up at 4am (lasted for about 10 minutes), I was finally able to pass my bowels shortly after (sorry for TMI),  then af like cramps in afternoon, followed by watery cm.

I’m at 6dpo today, I broke down and took a test (I knew it was too early, lol) but I couldn’t help myself! I am praying for a BFP!!

I’ve read that you don’t get symptoms until after Implantation. But I’m a nervous wreck here! I just want af to stay away from me for 9 months! lol

So anyway, I guess my question is, when is it a good time to test? Is there anyone else who experienced the same thing as I?

Do you track your basal temp too? That will give you a better idea of when to test. Good luck!

You should discuss all of this with your ob. You could also join a Ttc board on babycenter
