13DPO
Ok, I don't know if anybody is checking here, but I thought I'd update. Today is 13 DPO and CD24. I think I ovulated on CD11, but am not sure. I'm not temping because I don't get more than 2 hours of sleep at a stretch and I never am sleeping on the same schedule a night, but I'm thinking that for this next cycle I'll temp just to see... I'll also go see a doctor and get the day 21 progesterone test.
Anyway, I've POAS thrice and all negatives. Well, given what day I'm at it's not surprising that they were negatives, but still sad. I'm just so damn tired and moody and experiencing waves of nausea that come and go. And then friday 11 DPO I started spotting. I thought I was out of the running, but then the spotting stopped. I POAS yesterday morning, got a negative, and then started spotting again. OK, spotting 2 days in a row, must mean that I am going to start my period (Actually at that point I thought I HAD started it) so I'm definitely out this cycle. The biggest disappointment is that means I have NO EXCUSE for my symptoms. I'm just crazy. (Or, it's all from the sinus infection I was diagnosed with...) But then...
My mom came by to play with Julia while Kristin and I worked on the yard. And I kept having these bouts of sick-to-my-stomachness and dizzy spells. My mom asked me how I was feeling and I told her about the negative sticks and how I didn't think I was pregnant. And then as the day wore on she told me that what I was complaining of is how her morning sickness started and she asked me if I had had a period yet, and I told her no, but that I had been spotting on and off for two days. And then she dropped her little bombshell. Apparently when she was pregnant with me she didn't know she was pregnant with me because she had a period. That's right. If you go off the date of her last menstrual period then I was a month early. Yet I wasn't. And there was no way she could have concieved after she had her last period. Her body just bled anyway even though she was pregnant.
So. The bleeding doesn't necessarily mean that I'm not pregnant. But it also doesn't mean that I am pregnant. We may go get blood test today. Or we may not. I hate needles.
I just want a reason to be so tired and bitchy...
ETA: Did get the blood test, it came back negative. It wasn't a beta, and we're not 100% sure that it's been 10 days since I ovluated, so it could be off... but probably not. I guess I'm just crazy and lazy and not pregnant. Oh well, June, here we come...
