So I'm probably just having one of the crazy I want a baby moments... if someone could talk me down that would be great!!
I'm sorry this is going to be lengthy, but it's my first post here after stalking everyone else's for some time!
We've been trying nearly three years, 1 miscarriage v early into trying, and then a diagnosis of pcos, and no ovulation. Was referred to the fertility clinic, and after my first appointment, went away told to try something (possibly metaforim, can't remember now!) to start regulating my periods, and was due to return in like 6 weeks when I got really ill. I was diagnosed with a neurological condition, spent some time in hospital, and had to discharge from the fertility clinic. Anyway literally since I started the treatment for that condition (which can be linked to hormones), I've had regular periods, literally to the day - on a 35 day cycle. This is so weird for me as I've only had about four periods a year since coming off the pill! Speaking to others who were in the same situation, they said they only got pregnant after diagnosis and treatment. We were told not to ttc due to my medication, but I am now on a really low dose, (other with the same condition and much higher dosages have conceived and had healthy happy pregnancies), with the possibility of coming off it completely in the next couple months, and honestly I never thought I could get pregnant naturally after this long. So we weren't ttc, but weren't using protection or anything either, and I think we are both hoping that it does happen.
So that leads me to this month! We always dtd regularly throughout the month, so there isn't really any chance we'd miss ovulation whether I ovulate or not! Everything was normal, then on day 27, so about a week early, I have some really light bleeding. This gets heavy and bright red the 3rd day, with cramping, then is gone by the 4th. At first I thought it might be implantation bleeding so I did a test - the only one I had was a digital clearable one, and it came up negative (although the inside had three lines in it? Yes I broke it open as I thought I was testing early and it might not have shown up high enough!! I really don't understand how these work). Then as the bleeding got heavier I figured it was my period and I was out that month.
But now.. I've suddenly quit smoking as it's making me really nauseous. I"m still craving them, but then when I go to have one it turns my stomach. I've had a bit of an upset stomach all week, and my sense of smell is off the chart even though I've got a stuffy nose. Also, and sorry if this is tmi but I cannot keep my hands off hubby either!! I just kind of feel like I could be pregnant...?
My actual period would be due tomorrow so I"m thinking of doing another test, but this is pointless isn't it? I'm not pregnant? I just need to get it in my head! I haven't got any tests here so can't do one today anyway, but I just need some sensible people to talk to me! Or explain why the inside of the clearblue was positive? Or just tell me to do more tests!
Sorry!!
