Confessions Anyone?

Even though there is no possible way I am pregnant, I want to POAS anyway b/c I know the trigger is in my system.  I want to see what a BFP looks like.  I won't do it, but I really want to.  I AM LAME!

I don't blame you at all for wanting to POAS - I'd feel the same way!

My confession: Every time I feel bloated, the idea that I could be one of those "I didn't know I was pregnant" mysteries of science crosses my mind. 

Confession 2: I've (lightly) considered attending medical school, with the main driver being self-diagnosis and self-treatment.  Yep, even coming from a medical family, I get THAT frustrated with my doctor(s).

Oh, it's not lame at all! I am testing out my trigger, actually. It will likely be gone either tomorrow or Sunday. I will admit that I was extremely giddy the first few days to POAS and see two lines. The excitement is wearing off now and I don't even want to POAS anymore. I'm happy that the urge to test is out of my system. I don't think I'll even test until my beta date.

This. Except that in addition to testing out my trigger, I've also been doing luteal hCG injections (most recently Wednesday), so I'm pretty sure that all of the HPTs I have are still sensitive enough to give me a positive after my test date...in December, I still got a positive on my digital even though 2 hours later my beta was a 4.  

So I don't think I'll ever get a negative on my testing out sticks if I turn out to be pg, so in the meanwhile, I'm just peeing on sticks to look for a line!

Let's see, other confessions.  I'm irritated that I can't track my Sx on fertility friend this month because with all of the hCG in my system, I feel pg all the time (bloated, sore boobies, porn star nips, peeing buckets constantly, nauseus).  

I am convinced it worked this month because the other day, for the first time since I was pg with DS, I CRAVED a cheesy rice and bean burrito from taco bell. I had one a week, I'd bet, from the day I found them in the second tri onward.  Also craving Thai food from a place I ate at twice a week during the third tri.  All probably about the hCG.  Still, though.  It's gonna be really tough this month if it doesn't work out.

Oh I am right there with you. 

My confession- I am a germaphobe and only became one after having my son.  He is such an awful sleeper that one cold throws off his sleep cycle for 3 weeks where he is waking in the night multiple times.  It's a train wreck. 

So when I know we are going to 'high traffic' public places like a museum I bring wipes in my car that I load up with antibac soap to clean his hands in the car after the visit.  The crazy woman in me can't wait until we get home to wash hands, it must be done immediately!

I've been to TWO baby showers this week.  And they're all chatty and happy and talking about how long they want to wait until they have another one and it makes me want to dump the chicken salad on the floor and take off with the cake.
