I'm spending this month at home, studying
for an exam, so I have nothing to take my
mind off of this... It's driving me
crazy!
My husband and I have been trying for five
or six months, not always diligently. I
was monitoring my fertility using one of
those ovulation microscopes, but i've
gotten out of the habit of using it
lately. Still, when I was using it, I
found that I was generally ovulating right
before my period. Which happens about
once a month... It's pretty irregular,
but when it decides to follow a pattern
for a while, it's usually around 33 days.
Not that it matters; it's hasn't been
regular lately.
I had a very light period that lasted over
a week, and then my husband and I had sex.
The next day, it came back, and it was
very light for less than a week. Then we
had sex monday the 24th and tuesday the
25th. Wednesday, my breasts started to
feel sore, and thursday it was more
pronounced. Still sore as of today, and
breast tenderness is unusual for me. I
think i've experienced it one other time
in my life, maybe five years ago. I took
a pregnancy test on friday. I must not
have been thinking about it because I know
it was too early. Not a big deal though;
I buy them at the dollar store... And
i've taken so many with no symptoms at
all; at least this on was justified.
Anyway, i've been having spotting since
yesterday, ranging from pink/red to brown,
and from almost non-existent to light, but
never enough to actually stain my
underwear. Spotting is very normal for
me, but only attached to the beginning or
end of my period. This is much too early
to be a "regular" period, and when they're
irregular, they're always farther apart,
not closer together, so i'm wondering if
this could be implantation spotting. Not
accompanied by cramps at all, but then, my
period isn't either.
So far, no other signs, except cramping
and backache during and after orgasm
yesterday... And I was shocked when I
read last night that cramping and backache
during and after orgasm is something that
happens during pregnancy. I had no
idea...
Anyway... Hopefully I can keep my mind on
studying now. As far as a pregnancy test
goes, I guess I can take one in a week.
I'd love to do an early one, but as I have
absolutely no idea when my period should
be, I guess that's not an option.
Insight or... Whatever... :lol:
appreciated!
