It's been an eventful one year.
Right now, I am 19 DPO and no AF.
I feel some of the symptoms of being pregnant but I haven't taken a test. Why not you say?
Read somewhere that we should only start testing 2 weeks to 1 month late. Perhaps I'm afraid. Afraid of a BFN. Mostly it's that I don't want to spend money on the home tests, they are expensive.
I don't think it will be a BFN though. I know its weird but a couple of DPO, I noticed something strange happening to my body. It started off with the uterus feeling stretched. Then when I carried a box of 15 wine bottles to my car. I felt like I overstrained my abdomen. It wasn't a nice feeling.
Of course I immediately googled to see if I had done any damage. I guess that is just the body's way of telling me to take it easier.
And no, it doesn't feel like other months when we are not trying and AF is coming. Maybe wishful thinking, trying to see things that aren't actually there. Somehow, this month is different. Seems different to me.
I'm going to take a test this Sat, by then I will know my HCG levels will at least be of an acceptable range that will be detected by the kit.
If you are wondering, I actually already bought the test last week. 3x home tests in fact. Yes, I'm excited. It's actually taking a lot of willpower not to use it right now.
Wish me luck.
