I'm probably about 5-6 days post ovulation. Miscarriage in May so really really don't want to get hopes up as it could so easily happen again.
Boobs getting tender and I just fucking bubbled like a baby at love island. I don't even like Laura that much!
Anyway, sitting here thinking oooh what if and I really don't want to be having these thoughts. Of course will be delighted if I am but don't want to build anything up in my head for it to come to nothing.
How do you all keep yourselves from obsessing?

Sorry to hear about your miscarriage.
I have no clue!

I miscarried before my son and was obsessive before and after that. Now we're ttc #2 and I'm already obsessed.

Don't symptom spot. Bluntly put, the first symptom for most women is a missed period. It's very unusual to get symptoms before then, so chill out and enjoy Love Island and try to keep it out of your mind

I didn't know I was pregnant (Was always told it was impossible for me) ...I stupidly went to the doctors cos I couldn't understand why my boobs were so painful 2 weeks after what I thought was my period haha....turned out I was 5.5 weeks pregnant.
But after they told me 10 years ago I couldn't have children I didn't believe it...would take tests regularly as I kept thinking I might have been pregnant...I would even check before my period was due...I think I was hoping for this miracle lol
One day I told myself off haha... reminded myself it was never going to happen...and then it did....(Yep doctors were just as shocked and they are watching me like a hawk)..so now I understand when people say it happens when you stop trying... I really hope you are and I know it's hard to put it at the back of your mind too
