5 dpo and goin’ strong

Today I’m 5dpo.  Which, may not seem like a lot…but wow!  I have been getting PG symptoms like crazy.  Some I’m just not going to discuss due to my male IRL friends not really needing THAT much TMI… LOL

But I will say that my temp is almost as high as my highest temp from November…. and my temps have never gotten this high on non-pg cycles.  So, I’m really excited.

I’m finally over my cold.  But now the nausea has kicked in.  And the headaches.  Oh, and for a new touch to things…I’ve had horrible cramps in my leg for over 24 hours now.  Yeah…not cool.

And now I must tackle the mountain of laundry… and for those not aware, I live in an apartment building for which I have to walk up & down 4 flights of stairs just to get to the laundry room.  Bet you can’t guess how excited I am to do that all morning….

I’m more sure than ever that you’re more than 5 DPO now :D Definitely a tri-phasic…. ’cause, you would not even have implanted which is what gives the temperature rise… and that happen more than 5 DPO… so - I think you’re doing good - just not 5 DPO, more like… 12 DPO which would jive with the temp rise and implanation which is when you begin to feel prego symptoms (only after implantation!)

I’m stickin’ to my word! Give it 3 more days and I bet you could test….. :)

Well, according to your theory I would be 13 dpo today then…. and considering my longest LP has only been 11 days…. then I should theoretically get a BFP today….

So the only responsible thing for me to do would be to go get a FRER and test!! (heehee…right??)

Nah, wait a few more days …. but - I’m certain my theory is correct :D haha… save some $$ on those things but - if you’re already having feelings of being pregnant (and you’re sure it’s not in your head, hehe, I know about THAT)… then it has to be at least 9-10 days DPO before you feel that….

be patient :)

hey, just thinking — why don’t you change your red line so it shows up on the day that I think? And see how it changes your data…..

Ok Anji… I did it (just for you!) and it says I’m 13dpo….

I’m really not so sure about that…. check it out and let me know!

Oh indeed, that looks MUCH better. Is the OPK + on the 30th something you just threw in to adjust the chart or is that what really was there?

It makes more sense because there is generally an implantation dip 6-10 DPO (which is 8 DP0 for you) and… a tripphasic pattern happens if you have 3 steady days of rising patterns after implantation. Yes, DPO 11 (on the adjusted) has a bit of a dip BUT - you did mention you have had a cold, etc… and - it’s not uncommon for one day to have such a minute (not minute as in hour, minute as in miniscule!) temp difference so - I really think you have a steady rise there.

See how you had a C on DPO 5? That usually only happens AFTER ovulation, not just before it — not THAT close anyways — and, you had several Ws around the time I think you really ovulated. There’s no way you should continue to ovulate so late after being on clomid for 5 rounds, it’s meant to turbo-produce those little eggies, if it’s happening that late in a cycle then it’s not doing it’s job. Plus, you BD’d a lot around the time I think you did ovulate which would increase your odds a lot too, hehe…. My math just makes more sense, hehe - and — if I’m right, you can probably test in two to three days, to be on the safe side!

The + OPK on the 30th was real. But not nearly as + as the ones later on… which lead me to believe that maybe the one on the 30th wasn’t really + ?? (I have pics of all of them on previous posts…)

I really don’t know… I may test in a few days just to see…

Hi,

I’m keeping this one short, I promise! My mom, who seems to be the victim of MANY funny circumstances, and would love to share some (stories), but, I guess, it would make this longer if I did. Anyway, she had very, very few pregnancy symptoms, but one of them was TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE, ENOUGH TO MAKE HER CRY, leg cramps! Yes, she had leg cramps galore! Now, she seems to be losing her memory, but she STILL remembers those PESKY leg cramps when she was pregnant, in the past many years!

Brooke

Thanks Brooke! Now both my legs have started cramping…so frustrating! But also keeps me hopeful!! :)
