I just wanted to repost this in case!

Just wanted to report in that I am a 6 days away from AF, and all yesterday evening, I had a crampy stomach, and my face is starting to break out like it always does a week before AF. Does this mean I should expect AF to come, or can these still happen?

Also, I extremely hot and still running a temperature slightly above normal (have been consistantly high since O day, not going down), my breasts are super sore, and this sounds really weird, but everything seems...brighter? More alive? More colorful? Does this make sense? It's almost so bright and colorful, it almost makes me dizzy!
No spotting yet, so no implantation bleeding, it would have happened now if it was going to happen, right? (8 days after O)

You and I will both find out. I have all of the above except the brightness..
My crampy stomach was caused by the prenatal vitamins I was taking religiously. I decided to cut down because they were super high in iron, but increasing the folic acid-containing foods until I can get a better supplement.

implantation bleeding isnt necessary to be pregnant though, so that's a plus. I've been pregnant 4 times (3 confirmed and 1 chemical) and never had implantation bleeding with any.

Does anyone think this is a good sign?

I was cleaning my yoga mat this morning, and after I uncrumpled the paper towel, this heart was looking up at me.
Yes, I'm a dork.
There was someone on another thread last month that was baking some rainbow-colored cupcakes and one was blue but had a perfect little red heart right on the top. She felt it was a sign too...and a few days later got her BFP! I'm not sure I believe in "signs" but it's pretty cool!

Here's the link she sent me: https://flic.kr/p/3369207036
Anyway, I probably shouldn't be on this thread since I am also on the No Stressors/No Testers thread, but I think I'll probably be weak again and test early. I am only 8dpo and don't have any symptoms, but I've had a nice rise the last two mornings and am hoping I get a Triphasic/BFP by this time next week.

Chanelle & WonderfulStuff: I don't know if it was a coincidence or a symptom, but I came down with a bad stomach flu & fever right about when I got PG. I wasn't charting then, so I don't know the exact point in my cycle at which it happened. Then I had AF-like symptoms that got worse (sore boobs, exhaustion). Unfortunately, I think just about any AF symptom can be a PG symtom.. except for AF!

GrapesBunch: That is so awesome, thanks for posting the cupcake pics! The pics of all her sweets are fueling my cravings right now... I hope my paper towels are as psychic as her cupcakes!


I don't see why you can't be on both threads, BTW. I am obsessing about everything, but I'm going to try not to test too early... we'll see...

Continuing to obsess over every little symptom here. Lots of "I just don't feel quite as usual" going on. I'd swear that my breasts are bigger and that odd smell thing continues. Wait and see is just not easy for me.

I actually went online to figure out what my due date would be. Looks like right around January 1st. Silly, I know, and still way premature, but fun none the less.

Lucy--I too obsess about everything. Last night my DH took me on a date night since Friday (or normal date night) we will be babysitting my niece and nephew. At 1:30 I woke up sick and even vomited...then felt better. DH asked if it was "early morning sickness". LOL! I seriously think it was from eating greasy restaurant food as we really limit our portions and grease at home. Last night I was also really tired and fell asleep watching a movie at 7:40. I got up at normal time and my temp was up but not enough to be a fever I don't think. I have felt fine throughout the day, except I've been REALLY hungry. It's gonna be really hard not to test, but I only have one test left at home so I don't wanna waste it. I'll keep my
: for you!

I did that as soon as my last cycle started... My due date will be December 30 if I'm pregnant!
: That would even qualify me for a tax deduction this year!

Thanks for the new thread.Lucy V I guess I felt weird about it as I had posted in in my last 2ww, which didn't amount to anything. So I didn't want to be still the thread leader for that cycle as I am now in a fresh new possibility cycle. Thanks!

GrapesBunch & PatchChild: I checked a due date calculator, and I'm right around the same time as you girls.. Come on, baby, momma needs a 2009 tax deduction!!!


I've also been dead tired and hungry for the past couple of days.. and had a serious need for chocolate last night. As I told DH when I was on my second serving of chocolate ice cream, "I can't help it, it's the progesterone!"

Katie34: You're welcome!

I'm still here! Yesterday I had a wave of nausea after a couple of hours of not eating and I was very tired. I was at a friend's house, and she happened to have a pee stick, so I used it and it was negative. I was 10dpo. Now, we weren't trying and were actually considering being done, but I have to say, I'm am disappointed by the BFNs...so no testing for me until Sunday!

lucy, let's get these babies to stick.

I'm at about 90% sure I'm pregnant this time, oh me oh my and oh what fun. Funny though, I always said I'd try to avoid a December baby. The whole birthday/Christmas blending together thing. Oh well.

I worried about the December issue, too. Especially since my mom's birthday is the 23rd and my MIL's is the 25th! My grandma's is the 16th. December is already packed with birthdays. LOL
