7dpo symptoms

[Afamilygal]

I understand what you are saying about not wanting to be the one to say it.
The cycle I was convinced I was pg, I told my mom I was virtually positive I was pg and when I wasn't I felt really foolish. Like I hadn't known my body at all.
You always hear women say they just knew they were pregnant and so you think it will be like that for you. I really didn't know the first time. I had a vague inkling by the end of my cycle but I only really tested because my urine was such a weird color/smell. (really strong- ew) and I was going to the dentist to get a cavity filled and she was going to use the gas on me (good lord I love laughing gas!)
so I don't blame you at all. Its painful to get your hopes up. But at least let me get my hopes up for you. and if you are not- remember you have me!
I wish we were closer too! if you ever come to Austin I think we should meet! (is that weird?)
no pressure if it is, it was just a thought.

so you experience nausea mostly in the mornings... crazy. so you never eat breakfast? I freaking LOVE breakfast. I eat if to lunch and dinner too if I can! I wake up hungry like a bear. grr...FEED ME SEYMOUR!

greasy food makes me feel dreadful. I think its cause our bodies are like- "what is this? what did you put in me?! wheres the fruit lady!?" or at least mine is. It does however, respond well to cheese. so I'm like a mouse too. a bear mouse! (which there was a emoticon for that!)

anyhoo, yes I am getting a lot of friend time in. but you know D travels a lot (or used to) and I normally just veg out but I'm trying really hard to spend time with my buddies and its such a good opportunity. I am always tempted to be lazy and watch my crappy tv shows but I really forced myself to make an effort this time and it has really paid off- this has been a lovely week!
BUT I need to learn to do it while D is around. I tend to get complacent and not try so hard then and that's a real shame you know? I only have 3 real friends here that make the effort to see me too so I want to keep those friendships good and strong.

as for the Clomid, no more pooping (TG cause I had an AMAZING nutella eclair last night- OMG delicious) but I can feel my ovaries. I know that might sound weird, but I can feel them doing something- no joke!!
(making some baby follies is what they are doing- double time!)
not so sound negative but I am a little concerned that Im going to produce too many and he will call the cycle a bust. I would cry- a lot. BUT I am still hopeful. OH so hopeful!!

so how are you feeling this morning Em? whats new with you chicken?
hows the nausea today? what are we on? 6dpo correct? did you poas this am? (if so upload it sista!)

Don't be concerned that you will over produce eggs this month. What are the odds of that happening anyways? I think your eggs are putting the best ones in line to erupt, because they know this will be your cycle!
Thank god that pooping disaster seem to be a fluke! I really felt for you last night... I have been in that position, where you question whether or not you will have to run to the bathroom of a restaurant. The worst is when its the grocery store. WTH are you supposed to do with your grocery cart!??!

ARE YOU KIDDING??? If I am ever in Austin, I would want to cry if you didn't want to meet me! Same thing goes if you are ever in New York!

I tend to be the same way with friends. I like being around Patrick. We spent so much time apart with the long-distance relationship BS, that it can sometimes be unbearable. Like you, I have a few select friends- mainly because they are the only ones I can get a long with that don't get upset if I don't call them everyday. My life isn't about high school drama anymore.

I knew when I was pregnant the first time. I just had that feeling..but I don't think that's gonna happen again. Not with trying to conceive. We try to pinpoint every flutter, exhaustion, CM, emotion, tummy upset, headache and possible cold. All of which in itself, causes my head to spin. So that's pretty much a moot point.

Ahhhh sooo this mornings test. BLANK. Still early, gotta keep reminding myself of that.. but as promised, here is today's negative pee catcher...

Most likely I will be doing one later, for some reason my FMU never works great for me SHOCKING.

 

[Afamilygal]

AH! grocery poops- thats the worst!!

you funny...

sorry about your blank HPTS... but I think you would start implanting today!


wonder why FMU doesnt work for you, thats so odd!

I know, but I've read somewhere it's not uncommon for women to have higher concentrated urine with second urine, and possibly nighttime urine. Maybe it's just my excuse to pee on things all day!

The things that make you go hmmmm

 

[Afamilygal]

if you pee a lot in the night then that would make sense. they say if it is held for at least 4 hours without taking in fluids it is strong enough

I heard that too. I don't know, sometimes its hard for me to remember when the last time I peed. I'm gonna start a pee calender, just for fun. Something to add to the list of what Patrick can make fun of me for.

 

[Afamilygal]

Ooo! A pee calender! like it... im going to do that too after O in my TTC diary.

 

[EMandPATRICK]

You know.. the wait to ovulate sucks, but the TWW is THE WORST. I feel like I should be further along than 6 days!

 

[Afamilygal]

oh I know. its the worst for sure. its hard to stay sane, its not nice wanting everyday to pass you by so fast.
you know what sometimes helps me?
Think about this: what if you ARE pregnant, then this would be the last 8 days of your LIFE where you body is your own and the only person you have to take care of is yourself.
Everything changes once you have children. (and thats not a bad thing, I know we are ready for it) but it helps me to remember to enjoy being in the present and the gift of your body being your own.

hopefully that helps some! xo

 

[EMandPATRICK]

Thanks Laine, you are right. I should enjoy the time before we have pitter-patter of baby feet. And I promise, I will try to! Nothing really new since last time we talked. Lack of CM for the day, and I'm kinda bloated. Blah.

How are you feeling? Anything new? What time at night are you sticking to taking clomid?

 

[Afamilygal]

feeling good thanks dear. my ovaries are feeling SUPER full. I guess the best way to describe it is that it feels like I am ovulating- but on both sides. Its really heavy feeling and kind of jarring when I walk/step/sit etc. its not a great feeling but at least I know it is doing something right?
I doubt I am ovulating so soon (Im only on cd5) so I think it is just the clomid doing its thing.

 

[EMandPATRICK]

Have you done any reading on it? Can it make you ovulate sooner?? I would hate to think that you are feeling discomfort down there, and its completely normal. But, if you can work through it.. it might not be so bad. Maybe taking the little girl for walk would help. If not, just be lazy! It's Friday... enjoy yourself!!!

 

[EMandPATRICK]

Did some QUICK research on whether or not clomid can cause early ovulation. I guess it can, but not that much. Some women have said that normally they ovulated on cd16-18, and it brings their ovulation up to cd12. Which makes sense if they are trying to lengthen your LP. What you are feeling is most likely complete normal, however, make a call to your doctor if you feel nervous about it. Being the weekend, ask your questions before they leave the office!!

Hello ladies,

My temp dropped this morning, af is due tomorro

Hopefully i wont see you's next cycle (because you will be in 1st trimester xox

 

[annie00]

ugh girls im 9 dpo and i dont feel NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i had cramps from day of O untill yesterday but everything stopped... Even my CM Just waiting on AF to start bc im out this month ...

take a look at my chart pls.. and tell me what u think??

 

[annie00]

sharn sorry AF got u keep ur chin up n stay positive for next month!!!!! Ill be joining u soon enough !!

 

[EMandPATRICK]

No matter what happens next cycle, Laine and I have already said that we will stick around. It's hard enough going thru TTC, it's better to have people to talk to!! No one is OUT until AF SHOWS UP!

 

[EMandPATRICK]

Blah. Crampy and a tad queasy. Nothing really standing out too much. I'm pretty sure it's just nerves.

Took another test. I have a couple of the .88 walmart ones, so I decided to use one of those instead of my ICs. Going insane because I actually thought I saw something. Patrick disagrees, but says he does see something on the inverted picture. So if someone can tweak the original picture for me (to see if it makes a difference), it would be greatly appreciated.

Feel free to tell me that I'm completely nuts, and insane for "thinking" I could be looking at something. I'm still so early, the odds are incredibly slim. But there are odds- so to me, it tells me its not impossible!!!

 

[Afamilygal]

hey thanks Emily, you're so sweet. HUG. you and I think alike- I did call the office and she just got back to me. They said that it was totally normal, and some women feel it while others don't (I do as I am hypersensitive/crazy) she said some bloating wasn't abnormal either.
I dont look bloated but I feel bloated. AF has almost entirely stopped though.
If it wasnt for the soreness, I wouldnt know anything was different.

She said the only thing to watch out for is problems with my vision, like seeing things that arent there (um...WHAT?!)
But my eyes have been A OK.

I did go on a walk with the pup but it was not nice, every step feels like a jarring sensation SO I bought myslef some great food and Im making a big nicoise salad tonight and watching some tv with the doggie. LOVELY. Duncan gets back tomorrow so I need to get in my final day of crap TV! (bless crap TV, I ❤ it)

So what are you up to? doing anything fun tonight/ this weekend?
Whats the weather like there? still super cold?
