Jennifer B's Diary EntriesDiary Navigation: |
August 21, 2000
This is my first diary entry -- and I don't know where to start! Today I am on CD#26. I'm not 100-percent sure when to test, as my periods have been really irregular since I went off the pill six months ago. I had become so accustomed to my 28-day cycles that I forgot that without the pill, all that could change. I was 16 when I went on the pill and I gotta say, I definitely wasn't tracking the length then! I think I'll test around day 33 or 34 -- we'll see how long I can hold out!
I don't "feel" pregnant this month. I've had a lot of gas -- but I've been eating a lot of Ukrainian sausage! But my BBs aren't sore and I'm no more tired than usual. I wonder how connected early pregnancy symptoms are to PMS? I've NEVER had sensitive BBs. I don't know what to expect; I guess nobody really does.
I'm learning so much from this site and through talking to people on the boards. If AF arrives this month, I'm going to start tracking temperatures. I'm interested to hear from others how obvious the change has been when you are O'ing? Is there any chance I'd miss it?
My DH is away on business next week so I'll have to manage to keep my anticipation to myself. It's silly how distracted I am from the two weeks after I O! If I keep up at this rate and it takes a while to conceive, I might end up out of a job.
Well, that's all for now. Positive thoughts to all!
