Going Bonkers!
posted 9th Aug
So, I'm 10 days late. Yes--10! I've been experiencing symptoms... Increased appetite, feeling nauseous after eating, increased discharge, cramping with no sign of AF (I'm a cervix-checker, and it's not soft and open like right be AF comes--Everything is closed up tight and firm.), more difficulty concentrating, randomly sore breasts, increased fatigue, more emotional/moody than usual, more headaches than normal. I've also had a couple other odd things happen. For one, I keep getting an odd dull pain in my pelvic bone, which is new, and I've suddenly lost all interest in biting my fingernails (which happened with my first pregnancy). I've also noticed I'm losing a little more hait in the shower (which happened with my first pregnancy). By now, you're probably thinking "Well then pee on a stick, you whiney bitch." Well, I have. Just two days ago, I got yet another BFN. I swear, if I am pregnant, I'm going to be halfway through my first trimester before I even get a positive test! I'd go in for a blood test, but I'm scared and don't want to waste the money if I'm not. But I'm starting to think it's the only way. I've already started taking precaution--No alcohol, no pregnancy-unfriendly medicine, drinking plenty of water and juice, and I never stopped taking prenatals. I just want to KNOW! Argh!
To be fair though, I should have expected this--My first pregnancy I didn't even think to take a test until about 8 weeks, and my last one I didn't get a positive (although I tested every few days) until after 5 or 6 weeks... So this is normal for me, but it doesn't make it any more frustrating!!!
Sorry. I just had to vent a little. My husband is tired of hearing it (he thinks I think about it too much), and I don't want to talk about it too much with anyone else around here because they don't seem to understand... And I don't want to jinx it by getting (myself or anyone else) too excited... =\
