Tww successfully over. My symptoms for those who need such info.
Unlike other months of ttc, this time I decided to only test after my missed period. To not stress and get anxiety.
3 days to my period I was losing hope because I never felt any implantation pains like I did with my first.
A day to my period, 13dpo, after i ate 3 meals within 6 hours, i laughed and knew i must be pregnant. My appetite had been up earlier but i didnt think much to it. I was bloated too. Then i noticed vivid dreams every single day. Note i had them a day before but wasnt paying attention. I felt sharp pain in my tummy when i woke up next day using my stomach muscles. If i didnt drink at night, i would wake up with a very dry throat. Also didnt have any sex drive which i normally have before my periods.
14dpo, i was sleepy at 8pm. Also my breasts got refilled with milk, clogged and very big with pain yet I had weaned more than a week ago. It was like my supply increased for 2 days. Long story as to why I was still nursing my 2½ year old right until my ovulation. And I got more tired by the day. Now am 18dpo. Got my positive at 16dpo. Tested late because I didn't get around going to buy a test after my official missed period. 17DPO, I started having more trouble sleeping. 18dpo am urinating more. I do get occasional stomach cramping like I ate sth bad, nothing serious, it only lasts a minute or less.
Symptoms haven't changed much since. Sofar, no terrible morning sickness so fingers crossed. I prayed for this child so much that at some point I would send up a prayer in between conversations with my husband every hour. I just couldn't understand why I wasn't getting pregnant yet they told me everything is fine.
Baby dust to the rest of you waiting.
And those getting negative results, I know it is disappointing and heart breaking but don't lose hope. Once it happens, you know it is the right time and the pain is all washed away.
