I think I'm out and we worked so hard this month!

I have not a single symptom. nothing. and I'm 5dpo. I know its eary but I should have AF in 7 days and I just feel like I should have some sort of sign. my bff got a bfp on her 5dpo. I don't have any tests in the house, and I don't want to go buy any because I will go test crazy.

I'm just so fustrated. its been 9 lonnnng months. it feels like this just isn't going to work naturallyChat Icon

as soon as AF comes I have to go for blood work and DH is going for SA

I hate this!!! Chat Icon I want a family so badly. I have no one, no family and its been my dream since I was little to be a mommy. when people would ask me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I would say a mommy and they would laugh. it still holds true except I am grown up now

sorry for the long vent, but I don't have anyone else I can tell

Re: I think I'm out and we worked so hard this month!

There is NO way anyone got a BFP on 5DPO. Sorry for my skeptism, but there must have been a miscalculation.

8DPO for a BFP is super early
10DPO early
12 - that's a fair enough bet to know for sure

My point - 5DPO is SO early. Hang in for another 5 and try not to consider yourself out. Most women in their 2WW don't feel anything until right when AF is due, if anything at all.

ITA. there is absolutely no possible way she would get a BFP on an HPT at 5DPO. NO WAY. she probably didnt count her days right.

at 5DPO implantation hasnt even occurred yet, or is just beginning to occur. that means that theres no HCG to test for, and certainly no HCG causing symptoms.

im sorry to sound blunt but its really ridiculous to "feel" like youre out at 5DPO. try to stay positive!!

I totally understand about so badly wanting to be a mom. I have said the same thing my entire life ... including now.

Baby dust x a million for you. Hope you get your BFP!

I'm sorry you're so down and frustrated, but you're not out yet!!! Maybe you'll have a wonderful surprise this month!

But I do know the disappointment you're speaking of. It's all-consuming when you want something so badly.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

At 5dpo implantation hasnt occured yet... its physically impossible to feel symptoms without implantation because the hormone hasnt been released into your system yet...Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I'm sorry you are so frustrated, but try to think positively. I really don't think you are out yet at only 5 dpo. I got a BFP last time at 10 dpo and it was so so so faint, I missed it the first time I looked. I had absolutely no symptoms either. Hang in there and I definitely think your friend must have miscalculated!

sorry if that came out harsh, but im not judging you at all. you are the one that posted that you think you are out without any relevant reason. and that is what is ridiculous - not you personally. theres no judgement in my comment, just fact. if theres one thing i think ive established on these boards over the last 20 or so months that I've been posting, is that I only try to help, and i dont intentionally cause or involve myself in drama.

sometimes when TTC we need to be reminded when we are looking into something that is so clearly nothing. that's what these boards are for, to remind us when we are justified and when we are lost in our own emotions. i understand the emotional investment that we all have when TTC, especially when its taking WAYYYY longer than it should. there's no reason to feel the way you feel at 5DPO. plain and simple. sorry if it came out judgemental, it wasn't intended to be, it was more just to remind you that you that there's no reason to make any assumptions this early in the game, when you are SO far from out.

anyway, good luck with your cycle, i hope i am right and that you are wayyy to early to make any assumptions!

I am on month 9 too. It's easier now to lose hope each month because the BFN's keep coming. I hope that this is the month you get your BFP. Honestly, 5DPO is extrememly early to count yourself out! With DS I don't remember having any symptoms prior to my BFP....

you're not out until AF arrives so dont get too down on yourself!!

if your 5DPO implantation may not have occured yet so you still have a few more days to wait to retest!! somegirls didnt get a BFP until 13 or 14DPO

good luck!Chat Icon

Sorry if you read my post as harsh too. It was meant as nothing more than to encourage you to think positive since 5dpo is way too early to "feel" pregnant. I will say that, in retrospect I did have cramping 3-4 dpo with one of my pregancies and can now assume it was the start of implantation but I didn't feel pregnant. Everyone's body reacts differently and a lot of women will say they swore AF was coming at 12, 13, even 14 dpo but got a BFP. I know with my boys I got BFN 10, 11 dpo and then a BFP at 12dpo.
And then there were months I was convinced I was pregnant and I wasn't. Our body has a fun way of screwing with us LOL
Sending you tons of baby dust, hope and hugs. TTC is a crazy rollercoaster and I know how frustrating it can be - you never know what to expect. I have been PG 3x - first took 6-7 cycles, second was 3 months and third first shot. I am curious to see what is in store for me when I go for the next but I know that there is no perfect formula for this and I have never been disapponted with what (who) God sends my way ;)

Re: I think I'm out and we worked so hard this month!

I am sorry if you felt judged but if you knew anything about TTC you would know that no one would ever get a BFP at 5DPO, not even with a blood test. You are not out yet, not even close Chat Icon

thanks everyone Chat Icon
I just thought since my friend claims to have had a bfp at 5dpo I figured I would feel something by now

I so don't know enough about TTCing. its one of those things that I am trying to not get all obsessed over, but at the same time, learn enough to get me PG

I don't think anyone was trying to be harsh, just realistic and try to give you hope. A bfp at 5dpo is next to impossible.
Hang in there. You're definitely not out yet.

Agreed. I can basically guarantee she calculated her O date wrong.

Re: I think I'm out and we worked so hard this month!

I agree with all the previous posters. Everyone on this board is soooooo helpful. There is not one person here that would want to make you feel horrible and judge you. We are all just being realistic that at 5DPO it is extremely unlikely to get a BFP. So, with that being said there is no reason for you to feel like you are out yet. You are most definitely still in the game. Dont give up! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
