Symptoms

So everyone wants to know what my pregnancy symptoms are or how did I know. Well honestly I didn't I thought there was no way I was pregnant this cycle. -Little did I know.
The below description---warning-TO MUCH INFO ahead.

So here is a break down of my 2ww=what I did....symptoms.

Fri 11th-Ovulation day starts off things

Sat 12th (1DPO)-Had friends over hung out by the pool......Not hungry.

Sun 13th (2DPO)-Slept in and went to movie.....Nothing.

Mon 14th (3DPO)-Pool time/Spa......Nipples are very tender.

Tue 15th (4DPO)-Pool time/shopping.....Nipples are very tender, Loose Stools, Huge BBT drop.

Wed 16th (5DPO)-Went to Ripley's Believe it or not......Nipples tender, Loose stools, Strong smells (Troy's beer and dinner smelled really Beer-y).

Thur 17th (6DPO)-Spa day with the girls.....Nipples tender, Loose stools, Skin breaks out.

Fri 18th (7DPO)-Troy is sick with a 102 temp and stomach issues.......Skin breaks out.

Sat 19th (8DPO)-Batman and Pool......Skin breaks out, Gassy, Bloated, Cervix feels longer then normal.

Sun 20th (9DPO)-Go kart racing/paintball war out in the sun all day....Needed a nap, Gassy, Bloated, Cervix feels longer then normal.

Mon 21st (10DPO)-Had belly dancing class and lifted weights.....Needed a nap, Loose stools, Gassy, Cervix feels long then normal.

Tue 22nd (11DPO)-Didn't do anything all day......Needed a nap ~this one made me wonder, was having abdominal twinges-not cramps but a pulling sensation on my left side, Cervix feels longer then normal

Wed 23rd (12DPO)-Today found out I am indeed pregnant.

So most things that happened didn't seem odd. I mean there was a stomach bug going around and Troy and other crew members had it so the loose stools didn't seem to weird, and my skin broke out after a facial so I thought it was from that, the beer Troy had a dinner was a German heavy beer so I thought it just had more of an odor. The needing a nap the day I did nothing, the abdominal twinges and the fact that my cervix felt long were my only pregnancy symptoms.....and those are not the typical ones. So like I said--I didn't think this was our cycle LOL.

Testing day!

Well I woke up this morning and did my daily temp--it spiked! So I decided to test. Yes I know I said last month I would wait till AF was missing-but she is due today and I have no signs of her so I am tested anyway. Good thing to since I am SO PREGNANT! Thats right I got a Big Fat Positive (BFP) today! And to make sure---I POAS two more times LOL. Troy was with me when we found out. We were laying in bed, I was staring at the test and it turned into two lines within the first minute! I said "congratulations daddy" to Troy and he responded "I'm not a daddy I just have two lines". Now for the weird part---I mean I see the test is positive but I am not like super excited. I don't know if its really kicked in yet. Guess it will feel real in a couple of weeks when my pants start getting tight.
We have decided not to tell anyone in real life (online only friends ok-JM GIRLS!) till the second trimester. So if your reading this please only comment here-DO NOT comment on my facebook/myspace/or other blogs Please!
Catch with not telling people till second trimester---Troy's sister Jenny is getting married on Sept 20th and we also decided that we didn't want to steal her thunder so we are not going to tell his family till AFTER the honeymoon. I would love to hear suggestions on how I should tell everyone. With my mom I plan to do a grandparents day gift (9/7/08). It will be the first grandchild on both sides of our families.
Oh you want pictures---well I may have a couple LOL


Here is my first one:
Here is my first one and my second one to double check!
And here is the close ups in case you can't see it above-

Big dip.

Well I had a big temp dip today (actually below my coverline of 97.4...today is 4 DPO so I think its to early for a implantation dip. Guess time will tell.

And We have O

Got my three spiked temps today which puts my Ovulation date at 7/11/08. Yep the night Troy got drunk and passed out LOL. Then he was hungover the next day so we didn't get in the perfect BDing times but I think with what my CM has been like we still have a good shot this month.

OPK time x2

Strange I got another positive OPK today WOW. I hope this doesn't mean I am going to ovulate a ton this month. Don't get me wrong twins would be ok but more than that and we are going to have to move our life around alot more.

Added later: Picture of my OPK progression for this cycle.

OPK time

Got a positive OPK tonight. So in the next 24-48hrs I should be ovulating.

4th of July

Well like usual we get to a new place/location/hotel and we get more "in the mood" we have been doing the deed (DTD) everyday we could this cycle. Well last night I got a little drunk and so tonight I am hungover....going to have to skip tonight.
I have decided to throw the Shettle's method out the window. You probably guessed I would already. It not because I don't think there is some truth to it.....its more like I just don't want to stop DTD for a few days LOL. So we are going to try the HTM (horny Thailand method) this month were we just BD when we want!

Like clock work

So I should probably wait till 13DPO to test since this is the day AF seems to show. And right on time....she is here. CD1 starts me off on a new cycle--better luck this time. I am not really upset about this though. I am surprised I have to admit. Turns out I can get some imaginary pregnancy symptoms (IPS) pretty easy....oh great that should be fun LOL. Hopefully with the jet lag gone I will be able to read my body better. Well at least now I can get a few weeks in of parties while in Thailand!
