Hoping to be, too soon to tell

I started my period on the 22nd of July. I think. I had some spotting on the 19th. I'm not real sure which day to consider my first day of last monthly period. Anyway, I really want to be pregnant. I have a miscarriage in November & in February. We have a 3 year old daughter and feel it's time to make her a big sister. I am a full time nursing student and I also work part time 37 miles away. If I was to be pregnant now or within a couple months I would be able to stay home for at least 5 months. I think I am tricking myself because I feel like I am having some symptoms. I have been peeing a lot but at the same time I am trying to stay hydrated because it has been hot outside. Last night I felt like I was cramping. Could that have been implatation or maybe I haven't even ovulated yet, although the caculater for the 19th said the 2nd and for the 22nd said the 5th. We had sex everyday this month except today, the 6th, & 5th. Do you think I could be? Hopefully!

I have been on the computer for over 2 hours. Could someone please reply. I have responded to a few. I do not have much information to share that is why I need you to reply.

THANK YOU!

Hey! I really have not had may responses to my questions either. I don't think I can help you much, but I wanted to let you know I read your post. I started my cycle around 7/21 or 7/22. We started having sex the last day of that cycle and almost everyday since then. I have conceived twice on the last day of a cycle, which is highly unusual. I am having symptoms of peeing a lot, weird pelvic/abdominal feelings -- not pain or pressure, just to weird to describe, I am unusually hungry, and tired -- I was born tired. So, I don't know what to tell you, but I would say to not count the spotting when you are figuring on when to test. Good luck to you and I hope someone who can help you more reads your post and answers.

Isn't it too early to test? How long is your period usually?

Hang loose and keep us posted.

hello-

I am fairly new to all of this, but I thought I would try to tell you what I have learned. I had a similar question, as to which day to consider as the first day of my cycle. It sounds like you would use the first actual day of red flow (sorry TMI) as your first day. (Especially if the days you spotted it was brown rather then red.) They say this is actually the last day of you last cycle.

My cycle seems to be similar to yours. I am trying not to read into every and any "sign", but it is very difficult. Someone posted a site a few weeks ago that went into symptoms. Here it is if you would like to see it. http://www.webwomb.com/_newbaby/0000131b.htm I hope this helps.

Good Luck!!! :)
