Finally find some patience then BOOM! Another symptom. Maybe.

Hey ladies.
So, I am not person who possesses any patience at all for anything. Never have, never will. Since starting TTC, I've been trying so incredibly hard to teach myself how to relax and enjoy the process and just focus on other things. I normally can go a few days where I am calm and then something makes me crazy.
(I'm on cycle day 21. DH and I have been having sex every second day. No temping yet)

So, today I wake up and feel fine. Little groggy, nothing out of the ordinary. I know my period doesn't come for another week but I am crazy and took a HPT. Negative, as expected. I try to tell myself I'm going to have a good day and relax. I wasn't too hungry but knew I should eat something so I grab my favourite snack which is crackers and goat cheese. I had one bite and almost threw it up. It tasted so strong and so gross. I figured it might have gone bad so I made a wrap that I usually always love and same thing. It was absolutely horrendous.
SO! Now my mind is going all over the place. I know many of you probably went through the same thing.. If you have, please share!
Also, what are your thoughts?

Sounds like you tested too early. I know it's hard but wait and test in a few days. Or if you can wait and test the day you're late. I know it's hard but you can do it. try and stay busy like going for a walk, read a book, watch a movie, take a hot bath, etc. it'll be ok

You are absolutely right! I will have to find ways to occupy my mind. I literally cannot be idle for more than a half hour before I drive myself crazy!

Almost every month I manage to convince myself of one symptom or another. I too am incredibly impatient! I just want it to happen! ugh. I find reading exciting books and going for lots of bike rides to be a good way to distract myself from thinking about it too much. Although today, I've spent several hours on this board reading posts instead of trying to distract myself. haha fail.
Good Luck!!

Completely feel for you! I always imagined TTC being a relaxed, fun, enjoyable time. But who was I kidding!? I'm so impatient that I jumped right into having to do almost all of it (temping, OPKs, cm tracking) as soon as DH finally said ok. Whoops! So much for being a same person!

I do agree that finding things to occupy myself seems to help, but my mind still tends to drift.

Hope you just tested too early and you get a BFP!

We are very much alike, I'm finding!!
