I have an exam coming up soon, so I am holding off on any testing until that is behind me. If I take a test now and it comes back positive, it is "goodbye" to my textbooks! I intend to be patient and simply wait. If I am indeed pregnant, we are looking at being roughly three weeks along by then 😁 I am so eager to meet this little one!!😍
For as long as I can remember, my cycles have been completely unpredictable. There were times when I wouldn't see a period for two or three months straight. I previously tried birth control pills to regulate things, but the side effects were so unbearable that I eventually decided to stop altogether. Since then, my partner and I haven't been using any protection—we essentially rely on "luck" at this point. 😁
I’m currently on day ten of my cycle, but everything seems to have stalled, and I feel like the symptoms are all hitting me at once. Based on what I’ve been reading here, I’m starting to notice similar signs in myself. It’s entirely possible these are just psychosomatic reactions, but I can't shake the feeling. For one, my ovaries are aching slightly—though that might just be from catching a chill since the weather has been miserable lately and I haven't been dressing warmly enough. More strangely, for two nights in a row, I had an intense, irrational craving for warm ketchup and eggs 😁. My sister even asked if I was coming down with something because I’ve been sneezing every day. A few days ago, my lunch tasted bizarre to me, and now, after reading that some women experience a slight fever, I feel like my face is burning up. 🙂
I know I really ought to go pick up a pregnancy test, but I’m hesitant to waste money on it. I’ve already gone to the doctor twice for blood work, and both times the results were negative. It is perfectly plausible that I am simply imagining all of this, yet there is a persistent nagging sensation in the back of my mind that something is different this time.
