After charting and wondering about every little symptoms/sign that I've had over the past several months, I've come to a conclusion.

After Oing, I have an increased need to go to the bathroom. My bbs get tender. I am more tired than usual. Strange cramps coming and going. And I have weird cravings.

Before, I would pick every little thing trying to get clues on if I'm pg. Well this month I have all of the above. And I know 100% that I am not pg. DH is out to sea and no one could we have conceived a baby this cycle.

So I've come to the conclusion that all of the pg. signs/sypmtoms are normal for me. The only thing that is different this cycle as compared to the others when we were trying was that my CM is drier than before. Sorry for the TMI, but before, CM was creamy and I felt wet alot. This time, I'm dry.

Just thought I'd share my findings.

Way to go. I just started charting this month and really paying attention to my body within the past couple of months. I wish we were pregnant, but it's kinda cool learning about your body. Of course, I'm only starting out. If I'm here for a little while it might be a different story.

Erika,

I too have noticed the same things but have not been charting / tracking as long as you. I am constantly peeing it seems more than usual and I drink lots of water so I thought it was from that but I'm talking the need to go every hour (I'm only drinking half a bottle every coupld of hours I'd say) and my nipples are dark, hard and sore also cramping but had it yesterday and not so much today so I think I O'ed yesterday. I've been checking cp too and it's strange it still seems a bit high (mine never seems that hight to me but that could be b/c of a tilted uterus) and it still feels soft and very wet but cannot tell if it's open or closed, it feels open but I could be wrong. I was also very bloated feeling and looked like it the other day. How strange what are bodies do right?
