So let me just say, I obsessed over this site for 3 months! I think I read every story ever written here, and drove myself crazy with comparing my symptoms to others so I wanted to share mine in case anyone can relate in thier tww.
I have two kids, boys. One is 2.5 and the other is still a booby monster at 12 months. There's no end in sight, but that's okay! We started trying for 3 in November 2013. I say trying, but really it was "I think I'm pregnant, yay!" But alas, I was not. Which made us really talk about it and start actively trying. My period returned at 4 months post baby, which sucked. My cycles have always been long, 35 average. Since my second son they were averaging about 45 day long cycles. The tww wait felt more like the five week wait. December came and went and right when I was convinced my symptoms said I was pregnant, too many bfn's, my dear old af came. I was crushed because I was just so sure of it. I started temping the next cycle and taking opks. To be honest I think I was having annovulatory cycles because I never got ewcm, until this last cycle when it was like niagra falls out of my vagina. Well, here's my cd and dpo list so people can obsess over it like I did!
CD29 - I really started to see some ewcm. My cervix felt pretty soft and med/open
CD30 - so.much.ewcm.
CD31 - positive OPK and on a wondfo hcg test it's faint?! Super confused. Assume I have some high resting hcg levels or something that surged with lh
CD32 - ovulation day. Sex felt, different. Like he was mashing my cervix but it wasn't painful, lots of ewcm. Mid day I had a super small streak of pinkish blood on tp and assume it's my ovulation spotting
1dpo - huge temp jump and my nipples itch. Nothing else really. No cm
2dpo - temp jumps higher! Nothing new to record but sticky creamy little cm
3dpo - woke up to the smell of blood in my nose? Quick/poking pains left side of my uterus. Sticky cm if any
4dpo - feels like I pulled a muscle in my left side. Cervix is crazy hard and closed. Soooo tired today
5dpo - dull cramps all day long. Cervix is still hard and closed. Much creamier cm. nausea when I laid down for bed after nursing my son
6dpo - sciatic pain and dull cramps all day. Cervix is still so hard!! Feels small? If that's notable at all
7dpo - dull cramps all day. I just feel different. I'm not stressing over my symptoms like usual and just feel a bit off. My son has started asking to nurse like a newborn and even slept like poop just wanting to nurse. So incredibly sleepy
8dpo - holy mother of monkey milk a faint bfp on a frer!!!!!! Wondfo strips are awful FYI, super squinters compared to the obvious frer line. Dull cramps all day and ravenous hungry
9dpo - clear blue weeks digi says PREGNANT 1-2!! It's real! Baby number 3 is on the way!!
