I can’t take it any more! I’m officially 3 weeks and 5 days…

YESSSSSSSSSSS! I have been trying to get pregnant since May It was so crazy to me to actually try to get pregnant after 7 years of birth control and trying not to get pregnant. I am actually extremely blessed because I got pregnant my 2nd cycle of birth control pills. It takes on average about 4-5 cycles after birth control pills to conceive, and in the not so average world it actually takes a lot longer for most. Since we started trying, I joined a message board called Two Week Wait, and it’s so sad to see all the women on there who have been trying for years to get pregnant and here’s little ol me, I think about getting pregnant and BAM! It happens! But, once I have my mind set on doing something, I do it, and I do it excessively. Not only did I excessively have sex (too much info, sorry!) but I read into extreme detail just exactly how you actually conceive. It’s so amazing. And it turns out, (this was news to me, maybe you know this lol) you can take your temperature at the same time every morning before even getting out of bed, chart it each day, and figure out exactly when you ovulate, and if you conceive you can usually see a drop (or spike - spike in my case!) in temperature when implantation occurs in your uterus, and then your temp goes back up and remains elevated throughout your pregnancy. Needless to say, I have become addicted to two things in the past two months: “charting”, and peeing on a stick. Yes. I am a pregnancy test taking addict. As soon as I got my positive the first time, I couldn’t believe my eyes! So of course, I did what any excessive mommy wanna-be would do and I took 3 tests. And I continue to take multiple tests every day “just to make sure”. It’s not surprising that early pregnancy symptoms just happen to be very similar to PMS symptoms, and I’m sure feeling those. I’ve had cramps and a horrible back ache for days, which oddly enough, makes me really, really happy!
