So when, or how, did you know? - Page 2

[Effervescence]

Vivid dreams. Waking up early to pee.

Strange feelings telling me to POAS out of the blue. Never (at least not yet) have I gotten a + when I was paying attention to my cycle or waiting, hoping, etc.

DD was a huge surprise after months of no AF due to BFing her big brother.

I had a chem. pg 6 yrs ago. My older bro called to tell me his wife was 6wks pg. I almost immediately wondered if I was too, and it turned out that I was only a LITTLE BIT pg.

With dd1 I had an inkling when I was about a week late, I just *knew*. And I had even taken the morning after pill that time (yes, dd1 was an oops. But what a great oops she is).

With dd2 it was the first month we had tried and I wasn't late. I was supposed to get my period on Sunday September 2. That day it still hadn't turned up I *knew* then too. My cycles are as predictable as the tides and it always arrived on time, even the same time of day (I had a feeling something was up when it hadn't turned up by 9:00 p.m.)! So when I got out of work that night I got a test and sure enough it was a +.

I also had a dream the night that she was conceived that was pretty crazy. In it I had been struck by lightening and I was taken to the ER. No one was doing much to help me and I kept asking, "But what about the baby? Is it okay?" And then this old wise woman in hospital scrubs came to me and told me that the baby was fine. Then I could see the sun break through the clouds outside and I woke up. Cool.

with my first, I felt sweaty. I was at the rainbow gathering, had no idea when my period was or should be and I was extremely ignorant of pregnancy-related issues. so, I was sweaty, and I think dizzy. when we left the gathering we went to Seattle and poas in the hospital (great way to find out, eh?).. I was throwing up the next day.

with my second, I had implantation bleeding. I was learning how to chart (first month, I think) and I thought I was getting an early period. it never came... I poas and had the faintest line ever, my partner didn't even believe it was there . the doc confirmed..

with my third, I had a hangover (yeah, yeah) and told my friend that I felt almost 'morning-sick-pukey'. she laughed and we let it go. the next day I was still pukey. and the next. I thought I'd test just to prove I wasn't but the line showed up bright as day!!! I just about passed out...

and those are the stories of how I knew...

I had no clue until I POAS. DH on the other hand did have a clue... he was the one who TOLD me to POAS, even after I insisted it would be a waste of $6.

How he knew? No clue. My cycle was a little on the long side but I wasn't technically late yet, but he insisted I test anyway. Maybe I was being really hormonal or something, no idea.
