Did my second OPK today, it's stronger than yesterday's so that's reassuring. Reckon I'll ovulate on Tuesday.
Went into Mammas and Pappas today with a cousin who's PG. So many cute outfits in there! She forked out hundreds on a pushchair but she is so skint! I felt a bit weird cos I have the money to pay for a luxurious pushchair but just wouldn't cos my priority would be not going OTT so that I can provide for my child. I personally would prefer to go for mid-price items rather than splashing out so I don't get into debt. Sounds silly but I look at girls around me who are PG and some of them are really irresponsible (this one today drinks, smokes and spends money she hasn't got while PG) and I think that if I can't get PG, how UNFAIR it would be as I will do my utmost for my child. Whdereas she fell PG straight away and is just silly, silly, silly!
But then I've only been trying for a coupla months so I need to get a grip :-). x
As you might've seen from my posts on the normal TTC board, despite what my OPK is telling me (still a faint line which means no ovulating) I am getting allllllllll the symptoms of ovulating. 'Stretchy' CM, pains, bloaty - and it's 13th day of my cycle. My instincts are telling me I am ovulating, or certainly on the cusp of it. We don't have much chance to BD this week (boo!) and somethign told me to rush home and grab my man, which is exactly what I did. So who knows, tonight might've been the night that leads to a special little delivery. Will BD again this week but as I really really think I'm ovulating, this feels like the most likely night. And the cheeky sperm last a few days anyway so hopefully they're enjoying a good ol' swim right now. So the 2WW begins ...
I've kinda changed my mind about OPKs. It seems to me so obvious when I ovulate that I don't know whether I need them really.x
Hiya, so am gonna start tracking my 'symptoms' so I can share them with other people in case I am PG.
If I was right about when I ovulated, it's 5dpo.
1) I don't get that intuitive feeling I am pregnant.
2) Sore bbs - But last night, my bbs felt so heavy and slightly sensitive. As I was falling asleep, they felt all weird - slight darts of pain and like all the blood was rushing to them.
3) Cramps - I also got cramps yesterday during the day and night
Will keep you posted. Am downloading some funky 'rocky' Christmas tunes off iTunes now! Some fab covers by indie / rock groups. x
Cramping - I got more painful cramping last night and this morning. Might be all the pre-Crimbo food I'm eating ;-) But just in case, 'googled' cramping and lots of gals say this is their first sign of being PG. But then so are sore boobs - mine aren't that sore now, more very heavy but again, have put on weight recently from eating too much.
Also, symptoms ought to happen more like 10dpk so these are probably in my head. Tracking them though, just in case!x
AF due on Tues. Today, am cramping. I don't cramp so early. In fact, I only tend to cramp on the day of AF. Plus, sorry this is GER-OSS, and TMI but am a bit 'windy' in the 'lady area'. I am also bloated.
I have to admit, something's feeling strange this month and I have this feeling that I might be PG - o God, there, I said it! So scared to say it just in case. Am I feeling like I am cos I desperately want to be? The cramps are odd. I'll change my mind tomorrow and will say I don't feel PG. Cjhrist, who knows?! What torture especially when I'm soooooooooooooooooo bored at work and have all this time to wonder! x
I sympathize with you, I'm also in the TWW part of my cycle. I don't get to test until Boxing Day though - I'm jealous you get to test in four days!
I really hope your instincts are right and you get a Christmas BFP, that would be wonderful! I'm celebrating every positive I see on this forum; it might not be me, but at least there are quite a few of you out there getting the best Christmas present of all (and perhaps I'll get to join you soon!)

Best of luck to you!! I have been having cramping on/off and more cm! Headaches here and there and was extremely tired this last week, but could be due to work driving me crazy! I am curious to see what today will bring! When are you going to test exactly??
