Could I be pregnant?

Question

My husband and I have been ttc for the last few months. It will be our first child. We hit a few roadblocks along the way but this last month we were finally able to pinpoint my ovulation date. We BD when I peaked and now I’m about 6 dpo with spotting. And I’ve been having a headache on and off for like 3 days straight. I’m also super tired and sleepy. My period isn’t due for another 9 days (at least according to glow) Could I be pregnant? When should I test?

Answer

only way to know is to test id wait until you missed your period if you can’t wait that long start at 12 dpo good luck and baby dust!

Answer

People, please stop looking for symptoms. Every pregnancy symptom could be an AF or O symptom. Let me explain it with biology: The egg can be fertilized up to 48 hours. Let's say 24 in average. The egg travels for roughly 4 days(!!!) to the uterus. It's very picky so it doesn't implant right away. Implantation can happen from 4 DPO until 12 DPO, average between 6-8 or 9 DPO. It takes 2 days to create enough HCG in the blood, 2 more days to show in urine. During this time YOU DO NOT have enough HCG to have symptoms. I felt O and I felt implantation at 5 DPO which us REALLY early (no bleeding, no temp dip.) It took 4 more days to have a runny nose and sneezing. At 9 DPO I had a very faint line. Noone else could see it. This was the only month I had NO symptoms. Why? Because the symptoms you normally have are your hormones changing from O to AF. The HCG needs a lot more time to create symptoms. That's why most women get their first pregnancy symptoms at 5 or 6 weeks and are symptom-free before that, as they don't have AF symptoms.
