Good morning ladies...hope you all are doing well and will be loaded with symptoms today and the days to come...who is itching to POAS today?
I am not even considering myself a BFP hopeful this cycle...
Here is a little blah blah from a discouraged TTCer...please bear with me
Following is a well thought out list of symptoms that will get me excited and inspire me to POAS...
1)
extremely sore boobs (I used to get sore boobs 4-5 days prior to AF but lately that's not happening...could it be because I changed from Women's One A Day prenatals, earlier I was on WAD multivitamins for a year..??)
2)
extreme wetness down there (I am having yellow creamy CM since yesterday but I had it last month too)
3)
extreme yawning (my friend's early symptom was that she couldn't stop yawning during the day)
4)
extreme cramping (I do feel pain in tummy/abdomen/pelvic area once in a while but it can easily be ignored, when it gets intense enough to stop me from doing whatever I am doing, I'll think...)
5) tri-phasic temps (since I have been charting for last 4 months, I'll be able to figure out the 2nd temp spike)
6)
extreme nausea (I have experienced some nausea in previous cycles but it has to be strong enough to make me gag or puke)
7) bleeding gums (I do get dull ache in teeth around 5-7dpo but I am looking for bleeding gums when I brush)
So take-home message is...I'll continue with SS in 2WW because that is inevitable
but also understand which symptom will actually lead to a BFP at the end of cycle...I think this approach will help me 1) from POAS too early and 2) be less hopeful and more prepared for AF (if that makes any sense to anyone
)
Please excuse me for this long message, DH hasn't woken up yet and coming to this website is my latest hobby
