Hello, I'm new and in the TWW

Hello.  So this is my first time writing on one of these message boards, although I have been reading TONS of them for the past couple of months.  My husband and I are trying to conceive, and I am currently in my TWW.  I have been having tons of pregnancy symptoms the past week or so, with the main one being lightheaded/dizzy.  It just so happened that I went to a new doctor for a physical and she ordered a blood test (along with other things), but since she is doing some testing for other stuff, she said I won't hear from her until next week.  I have taken about 4 HPTs in the past two weeks (AF due around Tues or Wed next week), and I know it is still early, but all of this waiting around is killing me!  I feel like I am making up some of these symptoms... but they definitely feel so real to me.  I have also been incredibly hungry (I feel like I am starving every hour regardless of how much I eat) and I am concerned with gaining weight if I am in fact NOT pregnant.  Sorry for the rant (lol), but I am just looking for some support/advice, since my husband and I have not told anyone we are TTC I don't really have anyone I can turn to!  Thanks :0)

    Why did you take so many HPT's if your period isn't due for another 5 or 6 days? 

    Don't torture yourself

    I used to get phantom symptoms alllllll the time. I would definitely wait until the correct time to POAS. You don't want to waste that money; save that money for baby stuff one day.

     

    Good luck

    I have been using an app on my phone to track periods/ovulation.  It says I should have ovulated around 3/12, which would put me at about 10dpo.  The reason I have taken so many tests is because I've been reading so many posts about people (now

    Thanks for the advice.  I have heard of FertilityFriend.com.  I will check it out.  Also, my doctor ordered blood work for many other things to try to find the cause of the "symptom," but pregnancy was her first thought.  Of course, I

    Im no nurse, or in the medical field at all... but lightheaded/dizzy to me would think of blood sugars... 

    but, find a hobby, don't go crazy b/c of a 2ww...

    I know what you are going through - I am in the same boat with feeling some symptoms but not sure if it's pregnancy related or PMS.  AF is also due next week.  With nobody to talk to, I have been trying to vent to the Mr. but he doesn't know
