AHHH what are your thoughts....
My period is 2 days late.
I have no real symptoms other than these 3: 1 - my face broke out like crazy!!! (it is a symptom of pregnancy and did happen to me when I got pregnant in November) 2 - cramps (for weeks now) 3 - tired - not all the time.. just sometimes... and being wide wide wide awake at night (I was this way too when I was pregnant... like pregnancy insomnia)
BUT I really don't think I am pregnant... because I don't feel like I did in November when I was pregnant and my boobs are NOT SORE AT ALL!!!
I do not feel like AF is coming anytime soon though. This is soo strange. I haven't tested yet because if I did get pregnant this cycle it would really be a miracle since we didn't BD all that much. So I pretty much convinced myself that I'm not pregnant from the beginning and now I'm just waiting for AF to come so I can start using my CBEFM
Last time I was 5 days late when I tested... but I knew it was a distinct possibility at least a week before it was due. This time is SOOO different and I don't know what to do. I don't have any tests... so i can either go to the store and buy some or I can wait longer; I convinced myself that I'm not pregnant but this is just messing with my head now. It would be one thing if AF showed up... because that's what I expect to happen... but since it's not I'm scared to test and see the NOT pregnant on the screen.. because testing to me would mean that I THINK it might be possible.
Am I just nuts??????
What should I do????

Re: AHHH what are your thoughts....
is ur AF usually on time? I would wait a few days bc your cycle might be a little messed up since the m/c. I am trying to tell myself that if I get AF late I'm not testing until she's reallyyyyy late because it could be all over the place due to the m/c.
btw, I would usually say go run out and test, but I know how you feel. Since having the m/c i'm trying to be more cautious about this whole process.
Wait it out through the weekend and then test. I'm praying for ya Kerri

Re: AHHH what are your thoughts....
AHH... here's the other thing... We are currently in the process of moving.. and with that involves priming and painting. We are currently priming... and the Fumes are INTENSE! I mean I wore 2 masks yesterday and still had to keep leaving the room for fresh air.
I'm worried worried worried that IF i am pregnant... I'm huffing in these horrible fumes!! ARG I don't know what to do. I think trying to decide what to do is going to drive me nuts. I do hope AF stays away though!! OR COMES NOW IF THAT'S NOT THE CASE!!! DO SOMETHING!!!
Any other opinions on TO TEST OR NOT TO TEST????

I know this is probably a stupid question... but to not feel anything in the boob area too?? Could that be possible?? I felt my boobs as one of the first symptoms last time!! And this time... NOTHING! BUT then again... they aren't the same since i got pregnant in November. AT ALL.

Re: AHHH what are your thoughts....
Are you temping or using OPK this cycle? Are you sure you Oed when you think you did?If you are sure about the O date I would test tomorrow with FMU. If not, I would wait another week and then test.

I'm not temping or using OPK's.
We just do it the old fashioned way. I have NO IDEA when I o'd.
I did buy a CBEFM to use for the next cycle though. It was expensive.. and it would be my luck to buy one and never get to use it. haha. But I just REALLY thought this month was a wash. and now AF is messing with me.

Re: AHHH what are your thoughts....
Well, if you aren't sure when you Oed then you can't be sure if you are late or not. If you are usually pretty regular, just the stress of moving and doing home repairs can certainly delay Oing. I would wait it out a while longer. Good luck!

Re: AHHH what are your thoughts....
I could have sworn I was pregnant this month but then AF played tricks on me by only coming for 1 day!!! So your body could just be acting differently because of the stress and move but if it was me I would test, I would have to know! But I hope she stays away!! Good Luck and keep us updated!

the ONLY thing that makes me not want to wait... are the fumes!! If i test and know im not then I would feel much better about the huffing the primer and paint... but if i do test and by some miracle it's positive then i know to get out of the fumes. I recently had a mc... so it's REALLY important for me to remove myself from any factors like that.

Re: AHHH what are your thoughts....
when DH and i moved in Dec, AF came a whole week late. i totally thought i was pg. it could be from the stress of moving (i hope it isn't though!!!) i wouldn't worry too much about the fumes bc you are still really early and i don't think you're sharing blood yet. but just be careful and continue wearing ur mask!!

Re: AHHH what are your thoughts....
since you are already late i would def test. just because your symptoms arent the same, doesnt really mean anything since the same woman will experience different symptoms pregnancy to pregnancy.
i say test!

When I was pregnant with my DD I felt NOTHING in my boobs. Not one ache or pain. It wasn't until I was probably 8 weeks along that I had any boob soreness. All I had early on was cramping and exhaustion.
JUST GO TEST!!!!!!!!

I agree with the 100%
I have friends that didn't have ANY symptoms until well after they got their BFP.

just so you know... there are things that can affect a pregnancy before you are sharing blood. when i had a ms it was was due to trisomy 21, which can actually be due to alcohol, tobacco, or cocaine too. I've never done coke.. and i don't smoke cigs (just 2nd hand thanks to everyone else who smokes) and I DEF drank. Then of course there is the genetic factor and it could be a fluke. But don't go by the sharing blood factor as a safety net. It's not the case... it's a misconception actually. The beginning is a VERY VERY sensitive time and combined with a recent mc... I'm on more high alert than ever!

OK so it's true... then... symptoms are not always an indicator. Which I knew because I hear that all the time... but I just needed reassurance. My body is not the same since being pregnant in November. It's just hard to gage things now; especially with my boobs not being like they were before I got pregnant. I think I was looking out for the same symptoms. I still think it would be a miracle if I got pregnant this month... but I think it's better to test than to sit and wonder right?? OK. I go buy a test.

OK. This especially makes me think.
If it weren't for my face looking the way it does... I'd be in COMPLETE denial. But when i first got pregnant the hormone levels gave me a cystic pimple. And now all of a sudden I have at least 4 or 5 HUGE pimples!! I mean really big and bad and ugly. I used to get 1 around the time AF would come... this time I have a bunch and no AF!!! And no sign of AF either. And to think I had CLEAR skin before November!!

You are welcome!!
There are other factors that can affect things early on too. I can't remember them all. I just have the trisomy 21 ones on my brain bc I just got my results back and did lots of research on it. The ONE MAJOR thing I learned through this whole process is that... Pregnancy is a VERY VERY Delicate process and an unpredictable one as well!!

Re: AHHH what are your thoughts....
You should go get a test!!
I hate guessing at this point. I used to always check early pregnancy symptoms...but after getting my hopes up and being let down time and time again, I dont do it anymore. I took 2 HPTs and both negative. AF is due tomorrow so I am trying to prepare myself for her arrival. I hope you get a BFP!!!!!!! It would be great to know now, so that you can just stop painting for now lol!! Good luck!!!!!
