Missed period & pregnancy

[Honeyboo]

I hope I don't sound silly but here goes.

My hubby and I have just recently starting trying to conceive and aren't trying too hard just yet.  This month we only tried once during ovulation so I figured I probably wasn't pregnant.  Well, now I'm one day late...I've had cramps for about 4 days but no other signs of starting my period.  I honestly felt like I was going to start my period last week...

Is this normal if I'm just causing my mind to play tricks on my body?  I am probably going to take a test in 2 days if I don't start by then, since I'll be about 3 -4 days late. 

Just thought I'd see what you guys said b/c we're not sharing with friends/family that we're trying to I don't have my girlfriends to get advice from:)

Thanks!

Welcome Honeyboo!! Welcome - you've found the right place! You sound just like me - we tried once during ovulation too since hubby had to fly out for a trip literally that morning. I swear I felt different in some way almost immediately and it kind of shocked me because I didn't expect anything to happen either.

I'm 25 days into my cycle and since I just came off of birth control pills, my "period" should have started by now (placebo pills on days 25-26-27-28) but literally two spots...

I'm so glad I found this place too welcome again!
