Well, I think I'm about 3dpo. FF hasn't put in the crosshairs yet, but that's because I woke up early and didn't temp until too late (I should have temped when I woke up, but didn't, so I was up and awake for a bit). I am hoping that by Monday I'll get crosshairs. I think that because the pains I was having peaked on Thursday night, and really haven't been back, I think that's when I O'ed. We'll see what happens in the next two weeks.

I have been getting dull pains in my lower abs since Friday, almost like I have done too many crunches. But I am thinking that that maybe because I have started using the Bowflex again...though, then again, usually working out doesn't do this to me, especially not for this many days. Many it's a sign? I've been getting a few twinges in my BBs too, but I've had that before post-O. So I don't really think that's anything. It's the dull cramps that make me think something's up. Like my body's really working.

But then, I've thought that before. I guess what's really keeping my hopes up is that if I really did O Thursday, then we did have a fairly good BD session two days before. And that psychic did say that I'd be "heavily pg" by August...and I'm slowly running out of time for that. But that still doesn't mean that it may be next cycle...I would just be in that later part of the 2nd trimester if it was next cycle, so that might still be considered "heavily pg". I don't know. I guess I just really want to be pg.

Then on the other hand, I have no idea what's going on with DH. I am starting to think that he maybe getting scared and worried about being a Dad. I know he's going to be a good Dad, I just don't know what kind of mother I am going to be. But, I'm sure I'll be a good one.

Well, I just have to go through this 2ww. And if my temps stay up, I'll test Feb 16th (I think that's the Saturday). I'd love to test on Valentine's Day, but I don't want to be at work and either be disappointed, or being very happy. It's a dilemma. We'll see if I'm able to hold out!

Good luck hun. All sounds promising. x

Well, FF says that I am 6DPO! That is the earliest I've O'ed yet...but I'll agree with it, though I still think I could be only 5DPO. The problem is I was going to wait until Feb 16th to test...that would make me that magical 18DPO...I may breakdown and test either this coming Sunday (as that's when AF is due, I guess) or maybe even the 14th...

...but only if my temps stay up. It has to stay up. Fingers and toes crossed!

And DH and I didn't get a chance to talk on the weekend, but I did see him with his youngest nephew and you could just tell he liked it. DN came up to see him, DH picked him up and started making faces at him...it was just so cute! I can't wait to see him with one of his own. Just kinda made my heart melt.

I think I have been a little nuts due to my depression. I am doing ok, but every so often I am just a little

and I think I am going to start taking a little more B vitamins soon...that with the Omegas seem to be helping. At least it's better than being on meds...

Still getting those mild "cramps" in my lower abs. It's the oddest thing. Also been getting some heartburn (a little odd for me, but has happened before), and still more stuffed up than usual, but been like that for about a month or so. Also been getting sore BBs, but again, that happens are this time in my cycles. As does the breaking out. I break out when I O, I may break out around AF...Not reading into too much, it's just those cramps...

Well, been getting those mild cramps again...though right now they're a little more painful...and I've been getting shotting pains through my BBs, mostly on the outside but sometimes straight down (if that makes any sense! - meant, from the nipple straight into chest). Can't remember if they've been like that other months...sensitive yes, shotting pains? Can't remember.

So, the plan still is if my temps are still up on Sunday, I am going to test. Then, if BFN, going to wait until either the 14th

or the 16th to test again. AF is due anywhere from Monday to Thursday...but first I have to have high temps that long! Fingers and toes are crossed!

good luck dakini 1 hope you get a great BFP for Valentines!

Mervs Mum · Feb 6th, 2008, 23:03 PM

Those symptoms sounds very promising....

SwissMiss · Feb 7th, 2008, 13:00 PM

Hiya hon, just catchin' up...

Symptoms sound good, wouldnt that be fab for valentine's day!!! Stay zen and keep the posts comin'!!

dakini · Feb 8th, 2008, 15:55 PM

Temps looking good! We'll see what happens Sunday morning...I am just

for that BFP...

But I have to get through today first! I am so tired!!! All I want to do is

. And I'm still feeling a little nauseous...but that could be from the damn dress/suit pants I had to wear today...the stupid thing is that I'd bought the suit when I was heavier, and the jacket is a little big (but I'm making it work for now), and I'd think the pants would be...but no, they are tight!

Or at least they feel tight when I am sitting...

And I am also getting cramps between my hip bones...and those dang shooting pains in my BBs too...I just want to know what's up. If it's not my month, I'm ok with that, but I'd like to know about all these odd things...and I really want to wake up! And a Pepsi-fest really isn't an option...

Well, we'll see what happens Sunday...and hopefully I can stay awake! This certainly isn't helping me to be productive...

Sounding promising!

Ok, I am feeling totally awful! I had this silly business luncheon (State of the City address). Headed there with my boss and 3 other co-workers. Got in the back seat (our boss drove us all) and partway there I started to feel like I was going to

. Felt like that through most of the lunch and the speech, and then as I was starting to feel a little better, back in the car for us! So now I am sitting here trying not to

and all I really want is to go home and sleep...I have no idea what that happened to me...I was feeling so good! I know I have gotten motion sickness before, and it's felt like this (headache, nauseous)...maybe it's a migraine? I get those too...just not for awhile. This is just nuts though. Maybe it's nothing, and maybe it's something...I hope the 7-Up helps - it's the only one in the fridge!

Just wanted to put this in here...don't really know why....
