Hi ladies.
So here's a quick and dirty breakdown....I went off BC a while ago (6-7 months) but have had very inconsistent cycle lengths ever since. For example, my last cycle lasted 9 weeks (bah!). We've been using the pull and pray method.
So this cycle, about 10 days after my last period was over my DH who NEVER DRINKS had about 6 shots of Sailor Jerry (as did I) and we boned 9 times (I know I know....) and didn't pull out at all. Well, I'm now on CD 39 with no AF, very sore BB's for the past couple days, some weird food aversions and cravings. BUT I'm afraid to test because if there was such thing as a psychological disorder involving women who constantly believe they are pregnant when they aren't - it would be me! Send me to the asylum.
Anyways......my real question here is: has anybody ever been dissappointed over and over again because they confuse PMS symptoms with PG symptoms....only later to find out that they actually did get PG without having any *mindblowing* symptoms, such as morning sickness?
If I am preggo I'm about 5 wks along and if my cycle was a 28-30 day cycle this month then I BD'd RIGHT when I ovulated.

Hey Penny! First of all I want to say I hope you get whatever you want....whether it is to be pregnant or not.

Secondly Oh my gosh yes to your questions! Most of us on here(myself included) have had a thousand a preg symptoms only to receive a BFN.
Then the next month, just when we think we are out of the game, we get our BFP!

I can name numerous times when I thought I was preg by my symptoms. but then there were other times when I was preg and had symptoms really early. For example, the last time I was preg. I would gag when I was brushing my teeth...that is when I knew something was up and I was only 12dpo.

I think it depends on each of our body types, hormones, etc....

thanks for your response

I am dying to be pregnant but we aren't trying because of our financial situation right now I guess I just feel like I've thought I was pregnant so many times and wasn't that it's like I'll NEVER be pregnant. And we have tried before for three months (before deciding that it's a bad time) and....nothing. So I guess I'm just paranoid.

There have been quite a few months that I was convinced that I was pg when I was not. My DH makes me wait several days after a missed af to test because I get really upset. I would test if I were you, but I am a little obsessed with testing.
