Brunette, KMM: help me out here, what should I be feeling? BT is Wed 14th, AF was due either Tues/Wed just gone, so I'm maybe 5 days o/due (which is not usual for me, I'm pretty much a 28/29 day cycle). Normally I only get cramping the day before or the morning when AF comes, but for the last 3 days or so I've felt like she's coming and I don't know if this is the crinone gel? I've also had a massive headache constantly, again I think it's the crinone. No breast heaviness or any other symptoms. I'm thinking positively as much as I can, that it's a side effect of the progesterone.

DH and I had a barney last week, he just doesn't understand me. We went grocery shopping yesterday and I was holding my tummy and he said "I hope the little one's not tossing and turning too much for you" and I responded with "with what I'm feeling, I hope the little one's still okay" - WELL! that caused another disagreement as he says I'm not being positive. I'm the one who every 5 minutes when no-one's looking is rubbing their lower belly telling the little one to hang on tight in there, that Mummy and Daddy loves them and wants to see them in 8mths or so. I'm not really religious but I've even prayed to God that he can give me my family. I'm going to acupuncture, I'm eating well, I'm not lifting anything heavy or straining, I'm having lukewarm showers even though my showers are normally scalding hot. I'm trying to do everything I can - what else can I do?

Is there anything else, other than praying that I can do here? I'm not going to POAS in case the HCG is not high enough to register.

DH is stressing me out and I don't want anything to jeopardise this. Are you ladies getting the support that you need, or like me are you feeling a bit alone in this? DH hadn't even really asked how I was feeling until the barney last week when I told him that I felt alone and unsupported.

Aaaargh, what a long ranting post. sorry. DH has taken off on the motorbike for a ride, to get away from me. KMM, is that what you mean about feeling like a monster?

sorry for the rant, really needed to get that off my chest, and find out if you guys are having any symptoms and what you attribute them to?

Thanks,
Chrissy
