Thanks ladies... I realize how message board communities work and I was avoiding going to another board because I know how rude people can be. I know I asked a stupid question, but I'm allowed to be hopeful/delusional. People have gotten preganant that quickly before. I'm asking questions because I'm trying to learn more, not to annoy people.

You are saying that withing 10 days, people have:

Had a period

Ovulated

Became pregnant

Do we live in the same universe because I have never heard of this happening. This shiit has to be a joke.

I figured it out! She is married to Edward! YAY for more vampire babies!

NOOOOooOOo I want to be his baby's mama! That snatch.

Cinnamon - I think you need to speak slower and use smaller words with this one.

You're right. :::hangs head in shame:::

oh FFS.

Please do us all a favor and read a damn book before you become a mother.

People do NOT get pregnant with in 10 days of their cycle. That is ridiculous.

Wow, two whole pages of rude, bitchy adults. ADULTS. Sad.

To the original poster, ignore the rude comments. It's perfectly fine to ask a question, even if it is off topic. Time will tell if you're pregnant. If you're not, I suggest finding an ovulation calendar online and figuring out when your best days to conceive are.

Good luck!

I'm sorry Horizon, but don't you post on BOTB? You should be used to this by now.

OP, Ovulation calenders are the worst predictiors of ovulation because every one is different. Just read the book.

sunnyday016 · January 2010

Wow...why 2 pages of flames on this....? Klassy.

To the OP: if you think you're pg, then test.

Winsy, did you misread and think I was complaining about the snark? If so, please read again. If not, then yes, I'm used to the stupid leading the stupid, but that doesn't make it any less comment-worthy.

You aren't going to do well here. Snark is common. I suggest Baby Gaga for you.

Also, you should know that online ovulation calenders are worthless. Fertility friend is the only "calender" to ever use. It teaches how to understand your body and chart what is going on.

Your just as bright as her. On line ovulation calenders are highly inaccurate since the assume every woman ovulates at the same time as everyone else (14 days) that is not the case.

So my advice stands. Read a book and learn your body. Or just have regular and frequent sex. But PLEASE wait until you at least miss a period before assuming you might be pregnant.

ANd if you don't know this already. Less time on baby name board. More time on a TTC board. Putting the cart before the horse and all that.

Wow, the maturity level is astounding.

To the original poster: Let me clarify for you. Ovulation calendars ARE helpful. To a degree. They are definitely not something you should take as gospel, because no one knows exactly how your body works. But they're a good guide to start off with, and it indeed sounds like you're in the beginning phases of learning how to get pregnant. The calendars were accurate two out of two times for me, and for the record, I tested positive both time before I missed my period. As for the book that has been suggested, I've never read it, but I'm sure it's a great way to go.

Don't let these people make you feel stupid. Again, good luck.

No one was flaming anyone for testing before a missed period. The OP thought she was pregnant before she even ovulated, and that's what really shocked people.

And a lot of women on the other boards do learn how they're body works through charting, CM, CP, OPKs, reading books etc. They're simple skills to learn and saved me a whole lot of frustration when I found out that I ovulate almost a week later than what the calculator had told me.

Just sayin'

I just mentioned that because someone said she should wait until she's missed a period, but you don't necessarily have to do that. I was shocked this time around when I tested positive five days before my period!

Just sayin'

To clarify -- i never said i hadn't ovulated. It's possible to ovulate early, especially if your cycle is irregular from coming off the pill. Considering that I'm just starting to TTC i'm not going to be a charter. We're willing to let whatever happens happen for at least a year before we start worrying about things.

It's unrealistic to expect everyone to be as obsessed about reading multiple books before becoming a mother, be able to pinpoint exactly when they are ovulating, etc.

My original post simply asked if other people had had similar symptoms that I have been experiencing. I'm just trying to pay attention to my body. I understand that some of you may have been trying for a long time and think it's foolish for someone to get their hopes up so quickly, but not everyone is the same when it comes to TTC.

I'm thankful that there are at least a few understanding & kind people on this board and that not everyone is jaded, snarky and so quick to call someone stupid because they thought there was a possibility they ovulated early and were experiencing symptoms (particularly someone who has never been pregnant before). Give it a break.

No one is ever fully ready to become a parent for the first time, however I know that I'm personally doing everything I can to ensure that I will have a healthy, happy child. I'm sure they will appreciate having a mother who allowed herself to be hopeful and excited while TTC, rather than judgemental, classless and rude.

This whole thread is awesome.

To OP, if you can't handle a little flaming, I would suggest finding another message board.

YOU STILL DON'T GET IT!

You CAN NOT have a period, ovulate, get pregnant, and have symptoms ALL BEFORE CYCLE DAY 10! IT'S IMPOSSIBLE.

Ugh :::facepalm::: I'm done.

10 DAYS YOUR ARE ON YOUR 10TH DAY. EVEN IF YOU OVULATED EARLY THERE IS NO WAY YOU OVULATED ANYWHERE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE CYCLE (which you still are in) AND THE EMBRYO IMPLANTED CREATING HCG. (or HGC I always mix up those letters).

You taking the time to read A book is now being obsessed? Wow... if you don't want to take the time to learn about your body don't ask questions and expect us to the know the answer about you. Charting helps you pinpoint when you are ovulating.

To the person who stated ovulation predictors help TO A DEGREE. Sure, if you knew before hand how long the current cycle was going to be. It fluctuates and of course your cycles are typical 28 days while on BCP, that doesn't mean it will be 28 days after. The predictor calendars are bullshiit.

If you don't want to chart, use OPKs.

FFS, blind leading the blind around here

ETA: I believe suggested reading only one book TCOYF. If you can't read one book to help yourself.... How the hell to do have time for anything else? No one said read it in one day.

If you don't want to do the leg work, no one is going to do it for you.

I agree with all the snarksters and believe that this was a dumb question for the baby names board. Period

If you are far enough along to feel symptoms, you would be far enough along to get a positive pregnancy test.
