Early Pregnancy Signs and Symptoms Forum

Okay girls, here's my deal.

Me and hubby have been trying to get pregnant for about a year now, with no success, actually it's nov. Now, so I guess it's actually been a year.

Anyway, i've gone to see my doc and found out that unlike the avg. (whatever that is Confused

), my cycle last approx. 40 days

here are my figures:
5/25- 7/3 = 39 days
7/3 - 8/14 = 42 days
8/14 - 9/22 = 39 days
9/22 - still waiting

i took an average, and came out with 40 days, so with that calculation I should have started my period today, nov. 1. Or if I follow the pattern, 39,42,39, 42 I should start my period nov. 3.

I don't want to get my hopes up, so I haven't tested yet. I have all my usual symptoms of pre-menstrual, but the only thing i've noticed really different is the tenderness of my breast.

I normally get tender breast, achy back, moody, cramps, a fever sometimes, but as i'm sitting here typing to you ladies, my breast feel like I have a pair of weights pulling down on them. They feel extremely heavy and sore, more so than usual. I have no nausea, no vomitting, no heartburn, no "typical" pregnancy signs.

I really don't know why i'm posting this, maybe I justed needed to share with someone. It's been a very fustrating year for me and my husband so we are hoping for the best here.

Oh yes, one thing I can ask you ladies, is if anyone one of you in here is also on a 40 day cycle, if so, do you know how many days from our first day of bleeding we ovulate.

I bought a ovulation kit this month, and for a 40 day cycle we should ovulate on the 23rd. Day, so we count from our first day of bleeding and on until you count 23 days. For me, that would have been on october 14, so that's the day I started testing and the first test came out positive for ovulation but the following 6days, were all negative.

When I tested positive for ovulation, me and hubby did have intercourse that same instance, but if I only ovulated for one day, my chance are almost slim to none. Like I was telling you guys, very fustrating.

Wow, you ladies don't know how much I want to just go right this instance to bathroom and take a pregnancy test. The anticipation is so overwhelming, and I guess that's why i'm still typing. Smile

I apologize.

Anyway, thank you for being here for me and if you guys have any suggestions please feel free to answer my post.

Best of wishes to all,
