Ambiguous Results

Evaporation lines, barely-there periods, and much left unsaid (with fingers still crossed):


I know, I should take a picture of the probably-an-evaporation-line-but-looks-like-a-positive test for you, but as you may have noticed from the video I'M A LITTLE OUT OF IT.

It's on days like today I don't know if the internet is a help or a colossal fucking hindrance. Do I really need to know that sometimes implantation doesn't take place until AFTER your period is due (so you wouldn't have a positive result on a test anyway)? It's tiring, the waiting.

We're going to take an almost-midnight walk; if my period is going to start, that should get things going. Either way it will make me feel better.

PMS or Pregnancy Symptoms?

My period is due this week IF I am regular/detected my ovulation properly and DIDN'T get pregnant.

I have *no* idea if my symptoms since ovulation have been pregnancy symptoms or PMS things, especially since this is my first cycle off of birth control in two or three years. I did have some strange mild cramps right after ovulation -- could it have been a symptom of implantation? I don't know.

So my period is due this week and for the past week I haven't felt anything like the kind of PMS I used to have. I haven't been craving carbs and I'cw even felt strangely LESS hungry than usual. I've been constipated the past three days which could be because of my schedule being out of whack, but apparently it's also an early pregnancy symptom. I have a headache and nausea tonight which are also early pregnancy symptoms, but that could be from caffeine withdrawals and the nausea could be from having Indian food earlier today which does have dairy stuff in it and I'm lactose intolerant.

I started feeling crampy-ish today, though, and am starting to feel bitchy so I've been feeling like we're probably not pregnant yet. Also, I have more zits than usual but then I just read someone on a message board saying she broke out when she got pregnant, and in places she never breaks out like her back and shoulders, which is funny because the past week I've been worrying a zit on my shoulder blade which is someplace I haven't had a zit in, like, ten or fifteen years. I've also been more sensitive than I normally am to odors, but that's always spiked around the time of my period. My boobs did start to feel a little bloated and tender-when-squeezed tonight, but again -- that could be PMS *or* pregnancy.

Anyway, we should know sometime this week.
