UGH I feel like I'm getting my "normal" PMS symptoms (very emotional, annoyed easily). I'm so bummed. I hope the few other things I've been experiencing are pregnancy related (headaches, backaches, peeing more frequently (i even got up at night to pee last night and I never do that).

I can't test until next week. Monday will be 10DPO, and that's when I'll try to test (my last 2 pregnancies were positive at 10DPO). If it's negative I'll wait until AF is due. I HATE WAITING! DH wanted me to test last night and I had to tell him it's only 4 DPO haha., he didn't get it). Anyway, who else hates the wait? So frustrating psyching myself out over would be symptoms. Anyone else doing the waiting game and having PMS or pregnancy symptoms?


**UPDATE**
Ok, still waiting haha. However, today I have some mild cramping and major headache today and yesterday. I'm 6DPO, so I think that's a good sign. I rarely get cramps from AF, and if I do it's usually day 1 of my cycle. I'm feeling really positive this time. Monday can't get here soon enough.

Anyone else having early symptoms? It's driving me crazy

I agree the wait for any of it is nuts. I'm waiting for AF to come just so I can get geared up for the next cycle. Technically due 1/22 I think based on when I started last but that was a chemical. I don't know if it will be on time.
I have been extremly cranky with DH, so I know it's coming, but come on already.

My wait is until at least April! LOL

Good luck at 10dpo! Just remember each pregnancy is different, so don't get TOO discouraged if it's negative. My first + was VERY dark at 10dpo (I swear it would have been + 2 days before lol), and the second pregnancy it was negative at 9dpo and I thought for sure I was out.

Thanks everyone. It's nice to know I'm not alone for sure. I felt pretty crappy today too. Backache, headache, some nausea, I definitely don't feel like myself. I'm super tired. I know my new job has come with added stress too so it's hard to differentiate the symptoms of PMS, pregnancy and stress LOL. Funny how they are all so similar huh?

Christine- good to see you on here. I'll be thinking of you in April!

I hate the 2ww too. Every little twinge or tug i feel i think 'i must be pregnant'. So then when AF does show up I'm even more disappointed.

Lynda- I hope that's the case. I'm trying to stay busy, which isn't hard but of course my mind still wanders. I always tell myself I'm not going to let it consume me, and then I do. Boo me.

Jenn - I can't wait for you to test!!! Especially since you're testing before me!!

So the only good news about this work trip that I just returned from is that it kept me WAY too busy to obsess over the 2ww! But now I'm back...and the waiting and wondering is already driving me crazy!!

*FULL DISCLOSURE - any/all of these symptoms could be imaginary!*

Symptoms I have:
-- weird twingy cramping, starting on DPO1, worse on DPOs 5-8, not really feeling much today (DPO9)
-- nauseous every morning, and right after I eat in the AM (no vomiting though, just icky & gagging)
-- today, gained a low grade headache in back of my head
-- more frequent need to pee (no, not on a stick!)

Symptoms I don't have (but wish I did):
-- sore boobs (this was my first symptom with first pregnancy, sigh, so lack of it is not looking good)
-- extreme fatigue
-- excessive need to pee in middle of night

Since I know precious little about charting, I'm not really sure if mine is looking good or just average...opinions are welcome (link is below the tracker)!

Your symtpoms sound good to me. I never had sore BB's with either pregnancies, so that one always stumps me. I was headachey and crampy today too. Weekends always fly by, so cna't wait until Monday haha. Keep me posted!
