Room for one more please?
*sigh* any and all thoughts on the common issue are most appreciated. :)
I'm still coming off depo, so the hormonal thing is wacky. We're also TTC, and not 'doing it' specifically on Ovulation days - it just seems to be working out that way, because I'm charting for the first, going on 2nd month, I'm looking in retrospect & seeing the pattern.
-5/9 end of LMP
-5/19 Ovulation date based on last day of fertile mucus. (DTD on 5/16,21,23 still on depo)
- 6/3-7 nauseus, coffee aversion, headaches, crampy/stretchy! pingy, pains & flutters, dizzy, extreme fatigue, voracious hunger, mild earaches, extreme oily face/hair, itchy hands, sweaty, hot flashes, some cold spells. (Most if not all of these I've never in my life had!).
-6/8 All of the symptoms mostly subsided except an occasional crampy pain.
-6/9 BFN
-6/10-18 mostly tacky cm, then spin, then watery, then spin on the 18th so I thought that was O'.
- 6/16 & 19 DTD
- 6/19 BFN
-6/21 had that stretching feeling again, and more middle pain. According to the rythem method, Ovulation would have been the 18th. & in the afternoon, I had a huge amount of gummy cm, I thought it may be the cervical plug the book mentions (yich!) So maybe O' still coming? Lordy, what does THAT mean, exactly?
I'm wondering if I'll go off my coffee again, I've been real tired already. I've eaten a lot today so far. I've never heard of symptoms THIS intense for ovulation. Oh man, my abdomin is cramping like it was last month - which is, not the regular period cramps I'm used to for the past 17 years, but, well, different.
My recent *afternoon urine* HPT test on 6/19 was negative - that would have been 30DPO
I've heard of false-negatives from 7 weeks, 20 weeks, and talked to a lady who's friend went 7 mo before her preg. was (!) confirmed by standard office tests. Yes,yes,yes, I am Obsessing!.
A blood test is not an option - costs $320 here.
I didn't start temping BBT until 5/30 and due to circs beyond my control, stopped & just started again on the 16th.
I am just so concerned about going 10 days from now and "thinking" I'm preg AGAIN. I know there are women here who are submitting in similar 'symptoms'. Though wouldn't ALL these be a little much just for ovulation?
And if I WAS preg, wouldn't there still be some of the handful of symptoms left? Would they just all go away, and maybe come back later? That's weird! But does it happen?
Thank you very much! I so appreciate the chance to vent and talk to other ladies, even if you may be in the same position without any clear answers at least I won't feel like I'm losing it! *SOB!* *GROUP HUG!*
