A pointless post but I need to just vent.
I'm trying to wait and see if I get to or go past the 50 day milestone that I reached last cycle (on CD 41 and no sign of AF, last one was 23rd Sept and lasted 4 days) before testing as my husband and I feel that as we are aware of my cycles being quite long, we don't want to rush into testing.
I'm sure I must have OVed around the 14th/17th as I had EWCM but I noticed stretchy CM last week as well on the 24th, 30th and 31st but not sure if it was less than what I had around the 14th/17th and also whether I have mistaken it for semen. We BDed on these dates anyway as we have been BDing throughout the cycle missing only around 6-7 days in total.
The days following this, I went dry. I also had some creamy pinky CM then thought AF got me and had some more creamy pale brown/pinky CM. The following day I wiped and had a scant, spotty amount of dark brown but nothing since. During these days I had short sharp pains around where I'd get AF pains.
I've noticed over the past few days I'm falling asleep in the early afternoon and napping for upto 3 hours at a time. I wake up starving and am v. hungry by mid-morning and I *never* usually eat breakfast. My CM has varied from clear to stretchyish to clear/tinged white to a pale yellow colour to a creamy colour.
I've been yawning all day and felt nauseous and bloated despite not really eating much at all today and I felt quite sickly, my back has also been aching at the bottom. I also went out for dinner last night and couldn't finish any of my courses, I got full really quickly despite not eating all day except for toast in the early afternoon. I've had very mild cramping/achey feeling for about half an hour but no CM - in fact I notice it only after using the loo (TMI) and it's been clear tinged white. Since last Thursday I'm sure I've felt tingly boobs/itchy and my nipples felt like they were on fire but not sore or anything, just a little bit sensitive but if I wasn't TTC, I wouldn't notice. My veins are still quite obvious and boobs look fuller. I have also had a few spots come up - two on my back and one on the back of my neck(!) which I *never* get.
Please, someone slap me. With a first response. LOL.
I feel like I should just test now and if BFN test again when I get to 50 days or something but the thought of seeing a BFN would make me lose my positive attitude which has been keeping me going.
Today I kept feeling like I was pregnant but then I think it's only because I want it so much...or is it??
Right... Now I've vented, feel free to slap me.
