Need Some Help with This TTC thing!

My husband and I are not actively trying to conceive, (well, at least he is not!), and I think I am pregnant. I am only 22 years old and have only had one previous pregnancy that ended in miscarriage almost as soon as I figured out I was pregnant.

 

Here are the symptoms I currently have:

Fatigue

The constant feeling that I am thirsty. 

My breasts feel like they are chaffed but they never get tender and they are alittle. 

I have been feeling nauseous at the weirdest times (one of which I almost got sick in front of my boss.)

Lower back pain

 

My periods are irregular to say the least but Hubby and I have been doing the bunny hop around the est. time of ovulation based of this past month's cycle. I should have been ovulating anywhere between the 16th and 20th given that the cycle hasn't changed. I have taken 3 pregnancy tests and all have been negative. 

 

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should do?

 

Thanks,

Cassandra

    I was just saying.. I thought maybe you missed that point since you told her to do something she has already done. Didn't mean to offend. 

  • I'm just kidding with you! haha! No harm no foul!

    Ok sorry I get a little skittish on here sometimes. I know how things can spiral out of control with one wrong word! I am always afraid I am going to offend! 

  • I was more interested in the part were she said her hubby wasn't ttc.  But she knew they were doing, well, "the bunny hope" during her possible o time.

    i completely know what you mean about that. and it is so hard to read what someone really means on here... i always feel lie i'm on pins and needles

  • I appreciate the advice. When I took my 1st one last year before my miscarriage, it had also came out negative. Is there something wrong with my body that doesn't register on HPTS?

     

    My husband is on and off, one day he is on board with babies and the next he is not, that is usually when he talks to his dad. Who doesn't think he should have kids...ever.

    Maybe thats a sign that you need to talk and make a firm decision prior to TTC because the way you worded your first post it sounds like you are plotting to get KU when he doesn't want to.

    If you think there is something that makes it not register with HPT's call your Dr.

    Good luck!

  • If its too early to show a positive on a HPT, then its probably too early for all those symptoms.  Is it possible you have the flu?  Also if you have irregular cycles then you probably aren't technically late. 

    GL with TTC, but I would have a serious talk with your husband if he is on and off about TTC.  On and off to me, means off.

    Well, my first suggestion is to not ever call SEX the bunny hop again. Grow up. Also, stop trying to get pg when your husband isn't ready. That is selfish, childish and will only end badly. ?

  • I thought it was the flu at first but now I am not so sure, hence the post.

    As for the TTC, when we were TTC this month we had everything worked out but now that it may be a possibility he is worried that he is going to live like the rest of his family and wind up with 4 kids, a minimum wage job and a very bleak future.

  • I was talking about a possibility of a child. Not of his worry. I do admit that his brothers are pretty screwed up but he is quite different from them

     

  • Constant thirst, fatigue and dry skin are also a symptoms of diabetes.

    I'd go see your doctor.  (And it might be a good idea to find out why you're having irregular periods before TTC too)
