CD63 and counting....(long, sorry)

[motomama]

Hi everyone!

I've been lurking a while, so I figured it was time to actually post something, since you all seem like a great supportive bunch of ladies! I have a rather weird situation, myself. I'm not sure if I should be posting in this section or 1st Tri, but since I haven't gotten my yet, I figured I should be here.

My LMP was Feb 20 (63 days ago), and my usual cycles are +/-35 days. I've taken 5-6 hpts (I waited until I was actually late before taking any of them) and they're all . On CD50 or 51, I got a blood test done at the doc's, and that was also a . I was told to wait until AF is late a second time, and if she doesn't show, then to call the doc again. So I have 1 more week to wait, but the suspense is killing me!

The problem is, I can't figure out for the life of me whether to think I am or am not actually pg! I don't want to get my hopes up, but at the same time....where is AF!?

My symptoms:
-probably every single one out of the book (other than m/s) within the tww, but since then, they've tapered off. I don't even know if I should count them, since they may have just been wishful thinking.

-bloated for the last week or so (which, if I AM pg, would be my 8th week, so that makes sense, apparently). I'm hardly ever hungry because I feel so fat and bloated, but eat anyway because I know I should.

-VERY tired this week; can hardly drag myself out of bed before 8 a.m.! Luckily I work in the afternoons, not the mornings.

-nipples always show through bra and shirt?!?! (TMI, sorry) I keep wearing a jacket or a second, layered shirt to hide them! I haven't noticed whether or not my bb's have grown, since I'm already VERY 'blessed' up there, lol

-stomach just seems big and in the way, sort of. Kind of hard to explain, but I regularly walk and swim, and all the rest of me is in 'good enough' shape, except my belly! If I knew for sure I wasn't pg, I would definitely be doing some major ab workouts. But since I don't know....and I've had to wear my size 10 jeans the past week, rather than my usual size 8s.

Anyway, that's it on the 'symptoms,' so it's really frustrating. My hubby and I have been ttc since August, and I've been taking prenatals since then, so at least if I DO end up pg, I'm in good shape from that standpoint.

*sigh*

Oh yeah, and throughout this whole time, I've had loads of CM (TMI again!), which is unusual for me, other than around O-time. Is this even anything to consider?

hiya huns i see knowone has posted yet, god u must be going mad and want some kind of explination, to answer ur first question having lots of cm is a very good sign of pregnancy iv always had it, its always been creamy coloured and runny rather than thick...sorry tmi...
now if u say that u always have a good steady cycle each month then being on cd63 is very confusing and whats even more confusing is if u are preg how the hell can blood tests miss this BUT saying that iv been on here a while and it has happened but i do think it's rare, another question is also this, b4 u started ttc in august was u on any kind of birth control pills? if u was then this could also be what is the prob as coming off bcp can actually give u preg symptoms and cause cycle to be extra long, let me know huns and if u was which brand (does matter believe it or not) dnt stress out babes too much with the symptoms u do dound very preg and cm even more promising let me know if u was on bcp's babes xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks, Charliemarina! I was on the pill before we started ttc. It took about 3 months for my cycles to regulate after stopping the pill. I was on Estrostep FE. What do the different pills do?

Glad to hear that extra cm is a good sign, yep, mine has also been how you described yours.

I'm kind of past the point of stressing, and I've entered the phase of 'just tell me what's going on already' lol!
