TTC #2 C2 CD19 5 DPO (and going insane!)


By the time anyone reads this, I will be on CD 19, 5 dpo. So, what am I experiencing? Of course, I feel like I have all kinds of symptoms. My stomach sometimes feels fuller than it should, like there is less room in there. This was the first symptom that I had when I was pregnant with Alexandria, so it’s a perfectly valid symptom to imagine for me. I also sometimes get dizzy, but it’s very quick, it only lasts a split second. And I am more sleepy than usual. Other than that, I am experiencing nothing else. My temps are also keeping steady at 98.1. I am looking for a few more symptoms, identical to what happened the last time I was pregnant, which would be sore breasts and frequent urination. Also, I wouldn’t mind seeing my temps go triphasic.


So, I am waiting to take an HPT. And I will do that on Wednesday, unless I see no need to. I am expecting AF on the 12th, so I would take an HPT early, but that doesn’t bother me. If I notice the usual pre-AF cm, then I will pretty much assume it’s not my month. If not, I will happily fill my bladder, and wait to pee on a few sticks. And no matter how it goes, I am excited to be in first 2WW.


Do I think I’m pregnant? I really don’t know. It’s hard to say, when you want it to be true so badly! I don’t want to be too optimistic, and then get bit in the rear, if I am not. On the other hand, being a pessimist is no fun, either. For now I am hanging out, and waiting to find out one way or the other.


Well, I have no other pressing news to share. Good luck to all the writers this month. I am thinking of you all!

My question of the week, how long is a long enough luteal phase? Mine are usually 11 days, and I am already worried about it not being long enough!
