Waiting for AF and going crazy.

[robyn]

Wow, what a roller coaster this is! and this is my first 2WW.

A BFP is consuming my thoughts at all times. AF is due tomorrow. I am 13 DPO, and I have no symptoms of PMS or pregnancy. Except for being emotional, which is usually my biggest PMS symptom.

As much as I don't want AF to come it would be nice to be able to stop wondering for awhile. It's Saturday morning and DH just left to go out of town for today for business. He left me money and the keys to the element.
I wonder what time the drug store opens? I wonder if it's too early too test? I wonder how many times that question has been asked around here.
Yesterday I kept getting small cramps in my right leg and foot, which I have never had before. Although I usually relate anything like that to my back pain (slipped disc/si joint inflammation). I am sure that was probably related to that somehow.
DH hasn't said much about me being pg, he has been busy with work. We are going to church tomorrow for the first time since him becoming a Christian and us being married. I was waiting until he was ready and now I know he is ready so I am very excited about that!

Anyways, I am babbling too much cause it's early in the morning and I needed to vent a bit. Too excited about BFP's. I am sure I will end up going to the drugstore as soon as it opens and wasting money....unless AF shows up first. :(

and yes I will come back and post my results.

Well I went and got an HPT and some A&W breakfast.

Just as I thought, BFN.

It's a day before AF is due....the test I bought was one of those First Response where it can tell 4 days before AF. I am assuming it's right then.

Oh well, I guess I can stop obsessing now and start thinking about other things for a change. Like tampons and menstruation and stuff :(

I'm disappointed I wasted 13 bucks though.

Believe me when I say, we all understand! For some it's a journey, and for some it happens so quickly. The one good thing about AF coming is you get another month to try it all over again, pay attention to your body signs and keep on praying. (okay, i'm trying to stay positive :roll: ) I'm sorry about your BFN, But keep trying! And you can come and vent anytime!

I'm excited for you and your dh, I hope you find a wonderful and loving church to be apart of! I'll be keeping you all in my prayers!

Do you have the book Taking Charge of Your fertility? That is such an excelent book to read/have while ttc. When dh and I started ttc we had no idea how long it could take. we really thought it would happen the first month, but God can have other plans for us. During this time of waiting try to keep yourself occupied (I know MUCH harder then it might seem) I am so sorry about your bfn, but try ti stay positive and look at next month as a freash start where you can pay even more attention to your body and continue to learn how your body works, and responds to O and all. Saying a prayer for next month.

I so agree with everything in pp--Becky was very encouraging to me too when I was in a similar place not too long ago. Praying you will be able to relax and enjoy this time with your husband while you wait for God's timing. His plans are perfect. I know it is so hard to not obssess and be anxious, but He will help you.

Grace and peace to you.

I'm sorry you got a BFN...it's hard when we have to wait.

I was caught by your post because you said you paid $13...girl, go to the dollar store and pick up 13 tests for that price. That's the secret to not feeling guilty for testing....and they work just as well as any other test.

I so hope the TTC journey isn't a long one for you, but always remember that the Lord knows...he knows when you will get your BFP, he knows how many days you will be pg if he blesses you with one, and he knows what day your baby will be born. He is awesome like that!

Bless you sister!
