the Two Week Wait
Posted: 08-23-04 10:08am

Well, i'm currently in my second week after ovulation and it's only my second month ttc but man do I need to keep my mind off wondering if i'm pregnant...It's so easy to obsess, watching every little thing my body does, wondering if it's a sign, it's actually better this month (thank god!)

no question really, just wanted to share.

Just a quick update, I went to the dr last thursday because I thought I had a bladder infection, turns out i'm pregnant! Needless to say one of my early symptoms is having to pee alot Laughing

thanks to everyone for being on this forum, it helped alot to be able to come here to keep my mind off of questioning everything my body was doing, trying to guess if I was pregnant!

I'm 4 weeks and 2 days.

Which leads me to another question. Most people I know have waited until their second trimester to announce to friends and family that they're expecting, but my husband and I are ready to tell now. Just wondering what others were doing.

We're going to tell everyone pretty soon too. I want to pick up the phone and call everyone I know but i'm seeing my family this coming sunday, and since this is the first grandkid for the family i'm going to bite my tongue, hold in the news and tell them in person.

Now it's another countdown! Smile 5 days till I tell my family...Then call up everyone else I know!

So here's another update.

The results of the blood test were positive but the levels were low so my dr wants me to go back today to get another blood test to make sure the levels are rising. And i'm a bit freaked out. I took a hpt this morning, since my period is now 3 days late and was expecting a positive but it was negative, totally negative, not even the faintest hint of a positive.

So now i'm worried that my levels aren't rising properly and since i've read up on a bunch of pregnancy stuff what keeps running through my head is ectopic pregnancy since the hcg levels are lower with them.

All I can really do is get the blood test today and wait for the results, i've also got another dr's appt on thursday to go over the new results and do any additional blood work.

Thanks for listening.
