Hi,

My name is Tomasina. I suffer from HAE and PCOS. My husband and I have been ttc for about 10 years and this last January got the wonderful news we were expecting finally, only to lose the baby a few weeks later. I was devastated. I went through the d&c and the two month wait and here I am my first cycle back on Clomid.

I have to say this two week wait is killing me. I am 11 dpo and BFN so far, but now that I have been pregnant and know the signs I really thought I was. Last time a few things that have never happened before, well did.... I got hives right after I ovulated and my nipples decided to stand at attention ALL THE TIME and turned reddish purple. That happened again this month so I was so sure, but of course I have to listen to what the stupid tests are saying and that is NOT PREGNANT.

I wonder if the miscarriage just messed with my hormones so now I will have more symptoms during my tww or maybe I am just more in tune. I promised myself I would wait to test, because last time I thought the same thing and oila at 20 dpo I got the bfp.

Anyway, I am losing faith and thought I would join some others that may feel the same way. Keeping my fingers crossed that my symptoms are real and I am just testing too soon. I guess time will tell, but God did not give me patience.

Thanks for listening and any input. I am excited to finally be part of a group :)

I'm so sorry for your loss! God did not give me patience either :)  I hope that all your symptoms are a sticky bean, you deserve it from what sounds like a really long road.

Hi and welcome. It's so hard not to read into every sign and symptom, but the sad reality is that pre-AF symptoms mimic early pregnancy symptoms. I hope you see that BFP real soon!
