Alrighty, we practice NFP. We just moved, so we weren't being as careful as we should have been. (I didn't temp, but I was monitoring my CM.)
Potential baby making sex happened 4 days ago. Last night I noticed I had fertile quality CM, and it's rather abnormal, because I should be near the end of my cycle. (I think I ovulated on CD17, and it's now CD 25.) I also had more today. It's odd, because it's really hard for me to get EWCM, and now I've had it two days consecutively, when I should be mostly dry again.
My question is, how soon does one notice pregnancy symptoms? I asked my friend, and she said she noticed hers about 2 days after conception. I know the norm isn't for like, 4 weeks. But somehow, I just don't buy that. I also am having sore boobs, but that happens before my period about 75% of the time, so I'm not taking it as a sign for sure...
My other question is how much alcohol is ok to ingest after you get pg? In the past few days, I've had a couple mugs of hot chocolate with a bit of rum added. (A bit meaning around a shot or so.) I was having some tonight when I remembered about being potentially pregnant and not drinking... so, now I"m scared. Have I screwed up my potential child?
Gosh, I feel so dumb for asking these questions. We're TTA, though I want a baby very much. So I haven't really been doing anything in preparation for pregnancy, other than just eating well, which I would do anyway. And because I want a baby, I'm afraid that my mind is making up these symptoms... it wouldn't be the first time. Perhaps I should have posted this in the TTC forum? Mods, move it if you think it best. I just want some answers.
Thanks in advance.
