Mild nausea and soreness in breast? here I go again

[crazedupmom]

I am ttc my 2nd and am currently on cycle day 21 of a 33 day cycle.
I have been ttc for 5 months now.

Well I am off again imagining all manner of pregnancy symptoms.
Now I have mild nausea, and slight soreness in breasts, and feelings of a impending AF although that isn't due for another 12 days.

I realise that I am probably heading for another fall when AF turns up as expected.
This ttc business is really messing my head up.

Not sure what I wish to achieve by posting on here but would like support from anyone going through the same thing.

My DP just doesn't seem to realise what its like when your ttc and then imagining all manner of pregnancy symptoms and AF turning up every month.
I so much want to be pregnant thats it is constantly on my mind from the moment I wake up to when I go to bed.

I am TTC my 2nd too and am on cycle 3/4 (can't really remember as i've been trying to work out my cycle for 7 months and we haven't been using contraception for much longer...)

I too have been feeling like AF is on her way. I feel like I could throw up at any point and I also feel exhausted. I have broken out in spots too which I don't normally get!!

However, I'm confusing myself...my cycle is 28-35 days but the last 2 months it has been 31days. I'm on day 24 and thinking that I might just be OV later than normal (i.e. for a 35 day cycle) because I never notice any changes in EWCM). We haven't BD for a week though...

Good luck. I do hope you're showing all the signs of early pregnancy!!

How old id DC1?

Both of you, I went through it myself for over a year before we conceived DD. I don't think there is anything to be lost from being hopeful. At least for five days or so you get to dream before the inevitable reality comes down on you. Each month is a step closer to success and you just have to stay positive and keep going. You do need to have sex a lot though, the more sex, the more chances that sperm will be there when the egg turns up.

Good luck to both of you.

NB after trying so hard with number 1, I got pregnant (and am 14 weeks) with number 2 after only having sex twice since we had her. So things can change right around in an instant

That is great news WMMC...how you feeling?

It's is DP bday on Sunday and i'd like to test then but I never know when to test because of my cycle. Sunday will be day 28 and it might be too early to test because I could be having a 35 day cycle....

My DD was 2 in October and my LMP when I was pregnant with her was 6th Jan - same as this cycle. That would mean them having the same due date...might be better if i'm just dreaming all this up lol!

I'm feeling....enormous and knackered (still breastfeeding DD!)

As long as you are 10 days past ovulation you can test and you may get a positive but you may get a false negative. I got a pos 9 days post ovulation on a regular test though.

Yeh i'm not really sure when I OVd..thought I had and then convinced myself I hadn't...also I think my cycle last month was annovulatory. My boobs have been sore in the evenings for about 5 days.
Have you been very sick?

I was for the first 12 weeks but it's much better now, just knackered now.

If you test and it's negative will you assume the worst or will you assume it's too early?

I can only imagine how hard it must be being pregnant and having a toddler....I was so tired when I was pregnant the first time!!

Um I would prob think it was too early. DP is having a bday party on saturday though so I may test before then because I don't want to drink and feel guilty....
