Because I'm paranoid

I don't want to get my hopes up, but here are a few symptoms that make me think I could *possibly* be pregnant. :D

  • Cramping at 7 DPO. They felt like menstrual cramps that I do get, but not usually until my period actually starts. I had them all day and have had them off and on today, so I'm starting to feel doubtful that it's pregnancy related. I mean, really, how long would it take the egg to attach to the uterine wall?? Surely not two days? And it's been super painful at times, so I'm thinking I just ate something bad. :p
  • I took 2 naps yesterday - 11-12 and 3-4pm. I had gotten plenty of sleep the night before, I just felt soo tired. Very unusual for me since I never nap. I actually hate naps.
  • Soo tired the last couple of days. This is something I had when I was pregnant with Tash and at the time I could not fathom why such menial tasks like ironing could make me feel so tired. I don't think this is a typical pregnancy symptom, I think I have this one bc I have such a poor diet (I try honest!) that when a baby starts to grow s/he suck what reserves I have until I wake up and start eating extra to make up for it.
  • I noticed a bit of stretchy EWCM today. I read yesterday or was it today? that this could happen when the mucus plug is forming.
  • The other thing, even though my temps do not drop below my baseline before my period starts, they never go up to 36.8/.9, which it spiked to yesterday morning - 36.9 and again today. Ovusoft adjusted it though to 37 since I had to temp at 6.30am as to my usual 7.30.
I'm trying really really hard to hold out testing until Friday, which would be 12 DPO, the day my period should start. On top of all these "symptoms" though, I'm also sensing some that could be period related - like sore breasts.

Funnily enough, I was not this anxious the first time. Like I have said tons of times before, Owen had me so convinced that it was going to take us a super long time to get pg that I was totally not expecting to get pregnant soon so I did not pay any attention to these things. :p
