Been having some horrible cramps on and off :-(
Some have been quite painful that I have had to breathe through them (I love how going through labour gives you life skills! PMSL)
I have been getting up to go for a wee more frequently in the night so I am getting quite excited.
Did a couple of OPK's as they can detect HCG but aren't really that effective.
Did one at 9DPO and one at 10DPO
Both came up positive (as they would) but they don;t mean anything.
I caved in and did a CB digital at 10pm at 10DPO...
will post the results later.
Am a little wary at the moment. I feel pregnant, but then I have the cramps and I don't feel pregnant (they feel like the AF cramps I used to get before going on the pill)
Anyway - will be testing again tomorrow morning and will post the results
Best Wishes

The 1 week wait
Boy is it going slowly!!
I am desperately trying not to symptom spot.
To be honest - I'm not usually that into symptom spotting, but I lie there in the morning wondering if I feel ill.
I have backache from throwing my daughter around (playing with her - not literally just throwing her! LOL) but of course I'm think "backache - is that a symptom"
SNAP OUT OF IT!!
On a high sugar diet at the moment - not very healthy I know. Nipped to the petrol station last night to get some more butter as I fancied making some shortbread biscuits, but they didn't have any so I just bought about £5 worth of sweets...!
I felt very sick after eating most of them, had to concentrate very hard on not being sick whilst making love to hubby! Ahhh the romance!
OH is stressed at work at the moment - they are moving him around from section to section and he is having to do lots of courses and then they change there mind again so he has to do more courses. He is taking it out on me a bit - not in a bad way, but he'll get back from work and just be in a mard. He'll sigh and stomp around moving stuff off the floor that our toddler dumped there. I know the house isn't tidy when he gets back from work, but anything I put away gets dragged out again by our darling daughter.
It's just easier to wait until she goes to bed - other wise it is just a total balls-ache!
Oh yeah - nearly forgot. He said to me (in a text) "I only agreed to have another baby because worked seemed to have settled down"
I'm really not sure how to take that.
I don't think he meant it in the way it sounds to me - but he makes out I',m forcing him to try for another baby. I am probably reading too much into it, plus I know he's stressed so I think I will ignore it for now...
Anyway!!
Chin up :-)

The 2 Week Wait
Here we go again.
Trying not to get my hopes up and think that whatever the outcome - what's meant to be will be. But if I could switch off my emotions that easily I would be a very rich woman by now!
I am a little worried.
I have had no different feeling or any symptoms, but last night my darling daughter accidentally (on purpose!) kicked me in the stomach. It was quite hard but as she's only 16 months old it wasn't hard enough to make my stomach hurt.
However, since she did it - I have had lots of weird, what I can only describe as flutterings, in my stomach. This wasn't helped by severe backache yesterday (no, not a symptom - threw myself around on the floor playing with little'un and pulled a muscle at the base of my spine!) but even as I sit and type this, I can feel it.
Of course my brain is now going 10 to the dozen - if I am pregnant has this damaged the embryo or even killed it?
It's very silly to think like this, and as I said before what will be, will be but crikey this is doing my head in!!
Anyway - on a much nicer note my lovely husband bought me a gorgeous ring for my anniversary (can't have it until August though) It's very bling (not at all like me!!) - it was a complete bargain (less than £200 with a 3 year guarantee!) and it looks much much more expensive than it is! I am soo excited it's a little sad!!
That's all for now,
Speak soon

Time to Ovulate
Or so my ticker says anyway!
I think it is probably right. I've had some twingey pains in my 'ovary region' and my cervix is open and much softer - mucus is also increasing so it looks good!
Had a good 'session' last night - and will have another tonight.
Had to stop hubby from 'pleasuring himself' this morning. He wasn't impressed, but I think I managed to convince him with the promise of another good session tonight! :-)
If what we did last night can't make a baby than nothing can! I'm feeling really positive - like I'm much more in tune with my body. I even did some visualisation last night when I was trying to fall asleep. I imagined I was looking inside myself and could see my body guiding my husbands sperm to my ovary! A bit 'hippy' and odd, but I didn't make myself visualise it, it just happened.
I'm not going to get my hopes up too much, but I definitely feel like I am going in the right direction. If it takes a few more months then that is perfectly fine - my body knows what it is doing and I have faith that I will get pregnant when my body feels it is right!
Hope everyone is well!

Got some housework done...
For once!! :-)
Tidied up the lounge, the hallway and the computer area anyway!
The kitchen is strewn with clothes waiting to be washed - the blumming washing machine broke at the weekend. It's only 6 months old! The tumble drier also broke a few months ago -was also brand new.
Not happy, but at least they are under warranty. Still - you'd expect them to last a while before breaking down. Looks like it could be something serious with the washer though. They had better be able to fix it and quick, although I doubt it. Someone is coming out to see it Tomorrow, but they will see what is wrong, order some parts, they will come in next week and then they will come and fix it when they feel like it :-(
I have a toddler for heaven's sake - my washing machine is my best friend! We'll start running out of clothes soon!
Never mind eh? These things are sent to try us and all that.
On a brighter note I think I am getting closer to ovulation (the ticker isn't entirely accurate - it assumes ovulation occurs 14 days before your period is due) - my cervix is more open and is softer than yesterday. Not entirely sure on cervical mucus, as I check it in the shower so it probably gets washed away.
Hope this weather clears up. Thankfully we're not flooded, but still, no more rain for a while please!
Ta ta for now
