    *TMI* Uh Ohh....

    I'll start by saying we would both LOVE to have another bub but right now we are not in a good financial position and it would be quite irresponsible to plan one.

    So we started DTD last week, for the first time in 11 months. YAY!!

    The second time we DTD DF came 3 times. In the same condom (I didn't know this, only found out after ) So of course the bloody thing leaked now I'm stressing that we might be UTD.

    The next day I woke up "feeling" pregnant. Which is rediculous. I know.
    1. The next day? Seriously?
    2. It's not even likely. I don't think I've even ovulated yet - we DTD about 3 days after AF finished. Although I don't track my cycles so not sure when I O... Even so, I wouldn't be having symptoms yet. It's only been 5 ish days!

    My brain is playing tricks on me. I have been thinking about it, not *that*much but it's obviously enough for it to manifest into physical symptoms.

    Today I'm feeling nauseas and tired and the last couple of days I noticed I have a lot more CM.

    GAH it's driving me crazy!!!

    Not sure what I want from this post. Just to get it out I guess.. Any words of wisdom are apprecited though.

    Hmmmm....

    Nauseous = stressing too much about the possibility of being pregnant

    Tired = not sleeping properly due to said stress

    CM = you're paying more attention to it and it's completely normal, possibly even the buildup to O.

    Ok so it's a possibility, but probably a remote one - as you say it's way too early to be showing any signs yet and goodness knows those of us trying often find ourselves with weird body stuff that we'd like to think is pregnancy but turns out not being so. About the only thing I can suggest is to push it to the back of your mind, try not to stress about it and test a couple of days before your next AF is due?

    I know it's hard though - I've been through the anxious wait to poas and the aftermath and hope it works out for you either way.

    Whenever I think I might be pregnant, I feel it. Guess what - no pregnancy in over four years! And none pre-Liebs either. Just wishful thinking.

    I feel nauseous too. There's a D&V bug going round so don't know if I can make work tomorrow... have to see how I get through tonight.

    i'm exactly the same. DS was about the first time i could have been PG & didn't feel it.

    hopefully it's just your mind playing tricks on you. no harm in having some HPTs in the cupboard so you can put your mind at ease though.

    and nice one on getting back on the DTD wagon

    Thanks girls, I know I'm being silly.
    I'm always tired anyway. 19 months of not sleeping through will do that...

    Nausea- is unusual but could be many things

    CM - well I'm not sure, I wasn't looking for symptoms but maybe my subconscious is?

    Just have to keep reminding myself of this I guess. Otherwise it's going to be a very long few weeks...

    maybe you're just panicking... "Worry is interest paid on trouble before it is due."

    yes, yes it doth.

    I like that, very true.

    *tries not to stress*. According to pregnology dot com, today is the day I should ovulate - if I have a 28 day cycle.

    So about 12 days 'til testing... *waits*

    I'm sure it will be fine, try not to stress cause at this point, what will be will be! And either way things will work out. For the moment, I'd say it's more likely your mind is playing tricks on you Good luck though!

    I'm 90% sure I'm imagining it all. BUT this is driving me insane!!!

    The last 3 weeks in a nutshell:

    FEB 4th- AF arrives

    FEB 10th- No more AF + DTD

    FEB 11th- Wake up "feeling pregnant" - yes, it is rediculous.

    FEB 15th + 16th- LOTS of CM

    FEB 17th- Lots of CM + nausea

    FEB 18th- CM, nausea + slight pink tinge to cm one wipe

    FEB 19th- CM, Nausea*, abdo cramping lasting about an hour in the morning, tired, gassy, nausea/ very close to being sick in evening

    FEB 20th- CM, Nausea*, abdo cramping lasting about an hour in the morning, tired, gassy

    FEB 21st- CM, Nausea*, abdo cramping lasting about an hour in the morning, tired, gassy + increse in urination (normally go 2 or 3 times a day, HAD to go at least 6 times yesterday)

    FEB 22nd- next to no CM, period like pain but no period (usually coems at the same time), feels like AF is coming but so far no show + it's abuot a week too early, tired, nausea*, gassy, thirstier than usual


    Some of these things I never had with DS and hadn't really thought of as preg symptoms although I know they are.

    *Nausea lasts all day, although is relieved a bit when I eat something.


    I WANT TO TEST

    ETA - had a super wierd dream last night too. and Isaac's been acting a bit wierd the last couple of days

    Is he still breastfeeding as he normally would? Sometimes that can be an indication as (not that I would know) apparently the pg hormones can change the taste of BM.
