Crazy things I think and do while TTC!

[WishnandHopn]

I'm 6 dpo today and the 2ww is dragging....

Something to entertain us while we wait: tell me about the crazy things you think and do while TTC!

I got a little dizzy while waiting in line at starbucks today. Before TTC, I would have thought I just needed a snack, but now I get excited and think "oooh maybe I'm pregnant!"

I can second on the dizzy thing. Only because when I was pregnant with my son I was at the grocery store and had a bad dizzy spell to the point where I almost fell. A week later I got my BFP. I am 10dpo but temp has been dropping the last couple of days so not holding out hope even though I had a faint bfp at 8dpo. Blah!

I pee in a cup out of routine and check for concentration because let's get real 90% of the non af days are opks or cheap hpts lol

 

[WishnandHopn]

LOL peeing in cups and on sticks becomes almost like a hobby!

Just realized I'm not 6dpo...I'm only 5 dpo today! Ack even longer to wait

Waking up with wind and thinking you've already got a moving baby inside you. Nope just gas bubbles. Wish the crazy train would depart from the station haha

 

[Rawan]

Feeling nauseous, and think oh I might be pregnant!
Had food poisoning symptoms....but I didn't take any medication, just in case if I am pregnant

I Google every possible thing that might increase my fertility or cure my imagined ailments that are causing infertility.

All of the above sounds so familiar 😖 I interpret every pimple,dizzy spell,cramp as possible signs but won't breathe a word of it to hubby

I obsess over every twinge. The other day I found myself noting that my arms were really achy... of course I'd just carried a load of heavy bags across poolside >_<

I've also found myself examining containers in shops and thinking "Is this a good thing to pee in?" "What if I have to take a sample to the doctors, will it leak?" (FYI I've found disposable plastic shot glasses the best size and shape for morning testing )

 

[LunaRue]

I have a container I keep in the bathroom and sometimes accidentally leave it sitting around full of pee. I am SO ashamed! But not really

 

[HPmum2B]

I poke around my cervix every time I go for a wee. Literally its wee, wipe, poke. Like its part of the process of going to the loo.

 

[WishnandHopn]

Yup checking CM has become an obsession...and the frequency increases exponentially the closer I get to date of expected AF.

 

[DobbyForever]

I've got a gross one... take pictures of my spotting/light period and share it with strangers on the internet because part of me hopes it could be ib

 

[Aphy]

Love it, Dobby!

 

[DobbyForever]

Got a sad-funny one... These are clearly things I'm doing real time lol.

Take an hpt during your period just to be sure. Then breaking into a bottle of wine you've had chilling all TWW when it pops up, not shockingly but you were secretly hoping you were "one of those" ladies, bfn

 

[WishnandHopn]

Aw Dobby you enjoy that wine! Sending you bigs hugs. The witch sure is cruel.

 

[Aphy]

I can so relate to that Dobby! Not sad at all, we all do what we must to get through this thing called TCT

 

[WishnandHopn]

Ok another real time crazy....my cat came upstairs before I got out of bed this morning and was meowing and meowing and then just laid across my belly and purred. And I thought, does she know something? Then I got downstairs to see she had no food...no not a pregnancy-detecting kitty, just hungry!

 

[DobbyForever]

Wishin! I do that too! "Hmmm my dogs are super cuddly today, maybe I'm pregnant!"

GUILTY

Oh my goodness, EVERYTHING I try to convince myself is a sign of being pregnant. Last night when I got home from work I put toilet cleaner in both toilets at my house. OH and I went out to dinner, came home a couple hours later, I walked into the house and smelt bleach IMMEDIATELY. Instantly I thought, 'that bleach smell is strong, maybe i'm pregnant.' Non chalantly a little later I asked OH, 'did you smell bleach right when we walked into the door?' He said yes.
