I’ve been dreading today...

Sarah • Baby #1 arriving December 2018!

Today is supposed to be the day of my period. I have taken a few pregnancy tests the last few days, and they’ve all been negative.

I usually wake up and “feel” like my period is starting, and it’s a bit light... some mild cramps, and then it comes. Usually pretty lucky with minimal cramps and a manageable flow.

This morning, I woke up and thought I felt some blood. I thought “yup, you KNEW this was coming... she’s here, don’t be too disappointed, you expected this”. I didn’t test because I was sure she was starting (there wasn’t any blood, but I figured there would be when I wiped).

Now I am kicking myself for not testing! She still hasn’t shown up today... I have ZERO cramps... if I wasn’t tracking, I wouldn’t have realized she’s due today...

This is KILLING me! I had some weird “tugging/pulling” sensation in my lower lower abdomen for about a week, not really painful but definitely there. I thought it was maybe implantation, but most people describe that as cramps. These weren’t cramps... more like twinges. A few times the twinge was sharp when I moved too quickly. They ended Tuesday.

I am going to be sooooooo sad if my period arrives tonight or tomorrow.... but I know I’ve tested the last few days and it’s been negative... so I think she’s coming, just late enough to torture me 😭 I’ll test in the morning, but this is so tough!
