AF is due on the 19th and I am feeling extremely nauseaus(sp?) and very sluggish. LMP was 8/22 and since then we have been like little jack rabbits. This is our first month but I am wondering what your thoughts are if its very likely or just wishful thinking. Again I am so sick to my stomach it isn't funny. When can I do a home test? Is today to early?

Thanks for any input :)

It sounds like you are on a pretty regular 27-28 day cycle right? If so, do you know when you ovulated or when you normally ovulate? Say you ovulated on 9/4 (cd14), then you have had enough time for implantation because you are 7 dpo. Implantation can happen anywhere from 6-10 days, I've heard. However, that's pretty early for symptoms. I wouldn't take a hpt until at least a couple of days before AF is due. Even then, if you got a negative I would be cautious (not every woman will get a + early). If you can, I know it's hard, wait for AF. Keep watching you body signal though. If they get stronger, you might be. Try to relax.

My cycle is like clockwork. I have always been like this. Ovulation should have occurred 9/4-9/5. I know I am jumping the gun on this but it seems odd that I have these symptoms for no reason. I was pg a few years back and miscarried and these symptoms are pretty much identical. I became nauseus before even though AF was still a week or so off. I will just hang tight and wait this out.

Thanks so much :)
