When trying to conceive why do we always put ourselves through it. Following my previous post I have found out that I have definitely ovulated. My temperature has stayed up high. I was so happy about it.
I am now at 7 days past ovulation and my breasts are becoming extremely sore and tender. Today I did the worst thing possible. I decided to test!
One of the worst things I could have possibly done as even if you are pregnant the likelihood of getting a positive pregnancy test this early is very unlikely. You should at least wait until the end of your luteal phase (the time between ovulation and your period, normally around 14 days). That's why they call it the two week wait isn't it. But no I couldn't control the urge and just had to test.
Obviously it was negative. The thing is it is making me wonder after all this time waiting to ovulate and this being the first time since I came off the pill in a year after finishing birth control pills, is it really that likely that I will really get pregnant?
I was so hoping that it would come back positive but now I have got to wait about another week before I can test again. I suppose the good thing is though if my period hasn't started this time next week then hopefully I am definitely pregnant. Maybe I could be pregnant right now just the hcg isn't high enough yet. I hope so so much. I have been feeling very ill recently. I have been really sick, stomach cramps, extremely tired, very hot, really sore breasts. The thing is maybe this is just my mind playing tricks on me.
Either way I will find out by next Sunday hopefully so now it is just another waiting game. My life is now just a waiting game. I don't think I would even believe it if I did get pregnant so for now I will wait and hopefully update you all on good news or maybe bad.
