I don't think it's wrong. About 95% of me doesn't want AF around. It's just the "logical, responsible" part that does. That's probably the only reason we cheated and the only reason it's on my mind so much.

um, i think this thread totally applies to me right now....and i'm TERRIFIED!
We're several years away from TTC and in a pretty crap place financially, job wise, etc. I'm in the very beginning of grad school and my BF is still working on finding a permanent well paying job in his field and paying of a ton of student loans.... I've also been struggling w/ depression for a long time and was hoping to wean off some of my meds and get things under better control before TTC
In any case, my period is ~5 days late...we had sex a few times right around when I o'ed, sans condom for the beginning, but w/ a condom for the end. I've been incredibly nauseous for the past 4 days, puking, not able to keep much down...AWFUL heartburn. But I also have a migraine (I get them frequently and really bad)...so the nausea could be related to the headache....but it's never usually this bad. I'm exhausted and just generally feeling crap. My poo is weird (I totally agree with what was previously posted about constipated diarrhea...) I've been having awful night sweats (sorta normal for me) and dry mouth and thirst (not normal). I'm never usually late at all...but absolutely petrified to test. BF would FREAK if this was in fact an oops as he's terrified that having kids ruins your life, so he wants to life a little more before it's kiddo time. I am somewhat scared of actually being pg, but secretly wishing it's an oops....it'd be so difficult to figure out everything, but we'd manage and I so want to be a mama.

EEEEEEKKKKK!!! What to do??

oiseau- Please test! It would give me great satisfaction to hear some accurate results!

I'm waiting until AF is due on Saturday to test.

Could you have a stomach bug or food poisoning? I have one of the two right now and it's awful! The stomach cramps feel like labor.

Hi All,
I've been lurking, I admit. I think I may be preggers myself, not from trying, but I'd be happy. I don't know what dh would think however. Anyway, I woud start AF monday so I'll be back. If I am pregnant, I'll have a cool story to tell!

Good luck to everyone else waiting to find out!

Congrats, Full Heart! I know you said this was unplanned, but you wanted more, right? You're the first woman on this post to actually worry and be pregnant.

My temp's been dropping and I've had a little spotting so far today... So I think I'm out. I'll confirm later today or tomorrow.

oiseau, I'm sorry about the scare! I used to get really paranoid back when we weren't ready at all. It seems like just about every month I was scrutinizing my "symptoms" and driving myself insane! We're still not quite to the point of ttc, but a couple years makes a big difference in readiness. I hope you start feeling better!

Yea we wanted more but we wanted to wait till after we moved which will probably happen in July. If we move. House went on the market today! What timing!

Andee-
Thanks...we scare ourselves pretty frequently, though never as bad as this month. My BF looked at me this afternoon and was just like "Man....your uterus is SADISTIC" Especially since now on top of the mystery illness, I get to deal with yucky cramps.
Good luck to everyone here though...Hope everything turns out for the best for everyone!

oiseau, have you tried FAM? I know I may not be a good example because we "cheated", but the method really does give you much peace of mind. You know when you're fertile, when you ovulated, if you ovulated, when to expect AF... It's nice being that in touch with your body (no pun intended!)

Congrats Full Heart!!!

Oh, I wish I knew what dpo I am....possibly 10 at this point. I got my BFP last time at 11 dpo. Maybe I should have picked up a test at Target today. Darn it, I was trying not to think about it too much!

Congrats Full Heart!

Oh, I'm out. AF started this morning. It's funny, I am just a little bit dissapointed. But it's for the best right now, I suppose.

Confirmed
I kinda have mixed feelings, but I'm happy that we still have the chance to start our family when we decide the situations are right. And, hey -- I still get to finish my degree without worrying about daycare. So hopefully from now on I'll only ever be watching this thread and not participating!

Congratulations Full Heart!

My first pregnancy was 42 1/2 weeks. My second pregnancy was 41 1/2 weeks. Does that mean my cycle is longer? Because I think they are about every 28 days. I am horrible about remembering to write down when I get it. Luckily I wrote it down last month.

Okay I will admit it. I have been testing every morning since Tuesday because I can't stop thinking that I am pregnant! So far I have gotten all negatives but I am only 12dpo. It is still early right?

My dreams are still crazy. Last night I had a dream that I was in the bathroom trying to test and my DH, DD and DS were all trying to squeeze through the door to get in too! The results in my dream were positive.

I usually get quite bloated and grumpy before my period but this month nothing!

P.S. I begged DH to find out the sex of our last baby and I like shaking my Christmas presents too!

I sort of use a really lazy form of FAM. My big problem is that after awhile, I get to lazy about writing things down and then I forget... I should probably get more on the ball about it...
Also, it's cool that you have a hamster named Fudge...I have a rat named Fudgey!
