I feel odd (kinda long)
I don't know... I think it's all in my head.
As you know, me & dh are NOT trying this month. We're waiting until November/December for many various reasons. One of the main ones is because we are right now in between health insurance companies, we had to drop the one we had and we are now awaiting the next one to pick up (which should be in a month or two). Sooo - we were trying to be extra careful this month (using condoms & such). However, there was one point earlier this cycle when he did cum in me (Sorry for TMI). But that was five days before I usually O anyway, and since i don't have a lot of CM, it's nearly impossible for the sperm to live in me that long. So no way I'm pregnant. (We also used regular lube NOT preseed, which I hear can kill the sperm)
HOWEVER, I've just been feeling 'weird'. Right now it's about 8DPO and I'm just feeling off. Like I have slight cramps, but it doesn't feel like AF. Although maybe it is! Maybe I'm just confused. I also have this heavy bloated feeling in my abdomen (which is what I felt when I originally got my BFP). I also started feeling nauseous last night and sooo exhausted all weekend - but that could be from not getting enough sleep and from eating that darn icecream. lol. The only other thing is that i do have some cloudy sticky CM these past couple days, which i can't remember if that's normal for me or not (to have it after O).
Soooo - there's these little things which make me wonder. I'll be honest - - you KNOW that I'll be sooooo happy if I am of course. (there's a piece of me that's actually hoping) But there's another piece of me that knows we should be waiting another cycle or 2 - I mean our health insurance is right now nonexistent. Grr.
So i think it's all in my head basically, since the chances are so improbable. But I needed to get this out and share it with you ladies. I've been thinking about it all weekend and have nobody to talk to. I hate that. I feel so mixed up - - wanting it soooo bad, but knowing that I shouldn't. AF is due next Monday anyhow. We'll see, I guess!!
Like i said - it's probably all in my head...

Re: I feel odd (kinda long)
How come you have a lapse in insurance? DH and I are switching our health insurance during open enrollment (November) but in the meantime we still have our old insurance and will continue to have it until we officially change.
Since you didnt use an OPK this month, it is possible you O'd sooner (or later) then you think. I guess what Im saying is ANYTHING is possible under the circumstances you described. It *might* be all in your head since subconsciously you know you had that one unprotected time BUT it really might not be. Im inclined to think its NOT all in your head because you know how you felt last time so its not like you cold be making these symptoms up. Sometimes, I think girls who have never gotten PG do tend to read into things too deep but for those of us who have been there (m/c or not) I think we are less likely to "reach" for symptoms since we know first hand what they should feel like.
I would test if you dont get AF on Monday. I'll be secretly praying for a BFP for you

Re: I feel odd (kinda long)
I think it's so hard that AF symptoms are also PG symptoms! It definitely messes with your mind!
There is always that possibility that you are pg...I can see where your mind can go crazy!!
When is AF supposed to arrive?

Re: I feel odd (kinda long)
I hope you are right and you will get your BFP!
It just takes "one time", so u never know! That could of done the trick!! Let's hope ot was the one right time, and that you got a Super Fertile DH. lol
They say your cycle is a bit off after having a mc. So you may have ovulated differently from in the past.
Let's say you were pregnant....the health insurance, you can work out! Just remember if you do get pregnant then it was meant to be, and you will figure out what to do untill you get coverage.
Lot's of luck!
Will you test prior to Monday to see?

well mine is very screwy. I used to have health insurance through my last job. I ended up changing jobs though and where I'm working now does not provide it, so now I need to be added onto Dh's. But his only does it at certain times of the year (the next one is in December). So that's why we wanted to wait until at least November to try again (because then by the time i have my first appointment, the insurance has already picked up). It's very complicated and I'm not completely sure how it is, because DH usually takes care of that.

right? It makes me crazy. These could all just be related to other things. I think I'm reading WAY too much into stuff.
AF is due next Monday - so I'm not sure when I'll test. I'll probably just hold out and see if I'm late (as I am never more than 2 days). But a part of me wonders if I should just test on Friday since i have a wedding on Saturday and would like to be aware if I should not drink. We'll see.

Re: I feel odd (kinda long)
Hmm....well, I hate to say this but this website can really make you believe things that you wish were true/fact, and I'm a pessimist  I just know how it feels to get BFN...it stings big time. So, just go down the same track and wait for AF and let's hope she doesn't come then test & hope for BFP

exactly. I feel like i'm just THINKING that I feel something - reading way too much into every little thing. Honestly, I'll be fine either way. If i get a BFP then I will be sooo happy obviously... but if not, then that's absolutely fine because we weren't trying yet and I still want to wait until November. That's just another cycle or two to get through. I can do that. 
I really do think that I'll just go on and only test if I'm actually late... which I'm sure I won't be, but you never know!
