Twiddling thumbs, picking at nails and still waiting

Here comes the final 2 weeks before that horrid red thing should appear, and my "official" two week wait.
The problem is, with my irregular cycles I have no idea when I'm supposed to be ovulating, or the exact flow date. But we've... erm... hugged a LOT so I hope we managed to get the dates even a little and that we're now on the home straight to a nice positive test.

Yes I know it probably won't happen on month one, but a girl can hope.

Until I get the 2 little lines, its just a case of munching my levothyroxine, and getting on with it.
But it's hard, because I'm sure my meds are low. I keep getting terrible cramp in my legs, which is causing the crushing backache. And its muscle cramps according to physio.
Luckily I also have around 2 week until my next blood test, so that may show the problem and have me on the ladder to recovery pretty quickly.

Other than that a few more (probably in my head) symptoms of preggerness have appeared. As I said, reading not a lot into these but I'm gonna keep track just in case.

So heres the list thus far...
  • Headaches from the far reaches of hell
  • Moodswings from the deepest depths
  • Forgetfulness
  • Super Emotional - come on... I cried cos the cat got fed twice...
  • Sore nipples
  • Cramping and twinging in my lower abdomen
  • Very very very tired, near enough all of the time
  • Lots of dry sneezing
  • Amazing sense of smell... I can smell cat pee when it isn't there, and sweet yeast when I'm the other side of asda to the bakery
  • Broke out with 6 zits on my chin today... I mean 6!! come onnnn. Plus I never get em chinwards!
  • Cervical Mucus (discharge) is more than normal, but creamy... tmi I know but this is in the name of information.
  • Peeing way too much... especially all of the time hmmph
  • Forgetfulness - did I already say that?
And there are a few others that have escaped my cottage cheese brain.

So today is day 17 in the "please don't bleed" phase.... only 11 more until Red Flag or Aunty Flo's visit....
I hope she misses the damn train :p

  1. Good luck on your TTC Journey.
    I hope you dont mind me sharing this with you.
    I have my own online community for woman. It has a TTC area and I am trying to grow it. I would love to have more woman who are TTC become a part of my board.
    I am also having a contest where you can win free pee sticks.
    I wanted to invite you and any of your friends to come check it out.
    I also am looking for some hosts for the TTC board.
