Hi everyone!
I'm totally new to all this!!! I am 30 and have been with my bf 3 1/2 years. This is our first month of trying for a baby after a long wait to try. I am not getting my hopes up though. I have had a lot of health problems with Candida and have spent the past 2 years healing before we could try for a baby. Although hopeful deep down I am not expecting anything and have been surprising relaxed about the whole thing - unusual for me. I made a pact with myself not to get stressed about it and not to expect miracles!! I would never expect it to work first time especially with all the health problems I have had!!
However, my period is now 4 days late, almost always normally arrives on the same day and has never been more than 2 days late , my boobs have been sore since Sunday and are larger and I am bloated like a balloon. I am also moody! However I suffer from PMS and candida so these symptoms are not totally new to me. However, my period being this late is and my boobs being so sore for so long is.
The thing I will hate the most when the news comes is not being able to tell anyone. I am rubbish at secrets, especially one as big as this but I am scared senseless in case something happens. I'll try not stress about it but already worrying about the vitamins I take and what I eat etc etc!! I am on high dose vitamins that my nutritionist prescribed and I also have numerous food allergies which all concerns me!
First day of my last period was 22nd May. We bought 2 Tesco tests yesterday. Did one last night when bf got in from work. Got a very faint line which made us think it was probably not a positive but then read online about faint lines and it seems as long as they appear within the first 10 minutes then it is positive no matter how faint?! I still don't believe it though?! Did another one this morning and got another faint line!!
As this is our first month trying and I have had a lot of health problems I just can't make myself believe a faint line?! I will get another test to do on the weekend and hope for a stronger line if this is real!!! If it is we will be ecstatic!!!!
Look forward to talking to you all!
