two week wait - what was different the month of your BFP?

Question

I'm just finishing up my two week wait and in a few days I should (or might not?) be getting my period. I just wondered whether those people who got BFP's, what symptoms they had around this time? Just curious...

Answer 1

The best advice I have ever gotten during my 2 week wait is DONT look at symptoms from other people. Try not to focus on symptoms because you can develop phantom symptoms from doing that. Trust me, I at one point convinced myself I was pregnant eventhough I had taken HPT after HPT that were negative. I just couldnt get myself to believe it or something because some women online would say it took them 3 - 5 months of pregnancy before a pregnancy test even worked. So I went almost 4 months without a period nearly convinced that I had become pregnant and the tests just werent working. But after recieving negative after negative on tests I told myself one day that I WASNT pregnant afterall and my period came on exactly a week later.
The truth is, you won't really know if youre pregnant based on symptoms alone. Especially after reading VERY detailed descriptions of symptoms from women who ended up being pregnant can mess with your head. You and I both know that you can't have symptoms of pregnancy 5 days after ovulation and so forth.. and that you'll just be driving yourself crazy. The best thing is to try to wait it out as best as you can and divert your attention elsewhere by playing an online game or get some kind of hobby you can do in order to keep your sanity during 2ww.
Once I got this all in my head, that I would stop symptom searching and obsessing in the 2ww - Im getting pretty regular menses again and Ive noticed my stress levels went WAY down. I just figure - if it happens this month, it happens - if it don't, then we can just try again next month.
Im not trying to put your question down or anything, but try to relax and not think about it as much because you'll just drive yourself crazy.. and if you get a BFN it will be even more devistating because you had obsessed over symptoms for the entire 2ww and imagining symptoms that turn not to be symptoms of anything at all.
As for me, I'm due to be ovulating in the next 2 days so Im reallly excited because this is the first month Ive really tried to spot my ovulation signs and I think Im getting close!
Good luck to you and me both! And remember to try to relax now and then and just because you get a headache or a pain in your side it doesnt necessarily mean that it's a pregnancy symptom! It could just be gas ;)
Just deal with your "symptoms" and try to be patient until you can finally test. I really hope you get your BFP!
