First try.

The first time we tried to make a family was January 1st, 2010. How appropriate no? haha, it also happened to be smack dab in the window I believe I was ovulating. **It should also be noted that I can't do one thing at a time, oh no!, I decided now would also be a good time to try and kick my caffiene habit, as well as get off of a medication called pristiq (used to treat depression and/or anxiety). So it makes for a lovely guessing game of "what is causing this ailment".

So... now a word on this 2 week wait thing. It sucks! Seriously. I was not designed to handle the 2 week wait well. If you knew me, you'd know this. I am... shall we say.... slightly obsessive and determined. haha. Having a child has been one of the biggest goals of my entire life. So.. there's extra pressure there. Add to that I love learning about it, and there you have hours on google. Damn you google, damn you!! haha. I have spent the last nearly 2 weeks obsessing over this, the what ifs, the possible symptoms, etc. This is not good. haha. I know I am not the only woman in history to have done this, but... it doesn't help me watching myself do it. Its like a train wreck. My poor husband has been amazing about it, supportive, and great at listening.

So... what symptoms if any do I think I've had.
Not that many to speak of honestly. The number one thing I've noticed is my poor breasts (which will probably be called boobs a number of times between now and the future). They have been very sore. Here's the thing, I am a bigger chested girl, it runs in the family. I am used to them being tender around the time I ovulate, then again when I have pms. Between that time, they are fine.

This time they have been sore the entire 2 weeks. Full and sore. Additionally after we had sex on the first, my nipples have been tingling on and off. I have also had lovely "headlights" 24/7. Now for that lovely game of W.C.T.A. It has been very cold here in Florida. So.. I can't determine if they are like that because I have been cold for the last 2 weeks or what.

Besides my boobs, I've noticed I've been pretty tired. But again... this could be caffeine or coming off of the meds. Who knows.

The only other thing I've noticed out of the ordinary is my crying fit this weekend. Again, could be meds or caffiene, of potential baby. Who knows.


So.. here we are... about 3 days before I'm expecting my period. Can I say again how much I hate this 2 week wait thing. I have a feeling I'm going to get my period. Perhaps I'm being pessimistic, but there you have it. I guess we'll have to wait and see....
