Thumbs down The Two Week Torture
The Two Week Torture is that time between ovulation and AF that you ask yourself:
-Am I pregnant?
-Do I feel pregnant?
-Am I spotting?
-Is that implantation bleeding?
-Should I work out?
-Should I have a drink?

Then you convince yourself...
-My boobs are sore
-I'm bloated
-I'm tired
I MUST BE PREGNANT!

But
-I don't want to get my hopes up
-I don't want to be disappointed
-I don't want to fool myself

Then you say to yourself...
-Stop thinking about it so much
-It'll happen when it is supposed to
-Stop stressing
-Stop obsessing

Then you wonder....
-Am I not getting pregnant b/c I think about it all the time?
-Is something wrong with me?
-Will I ever get pregnant?
-How long will this take?

It is.... THE TWO WEEK TORTURE

If you are experiencing Two Week Torture, rant about it here... Go ahead, stress, obsess, contemplate and yes, go there.... HERE!!

OMG I am experiencing everything you mentioned. I am in that phase right now!! I am supposed to start on 2/3 and I am hoping that it will not come and that I will have a + pregnancy test that day. But I am not having any symptoms, am I not pregnant? I think about it all!!! And I go over all those questions every month. Like I posted before I wish we could know right away, like the day after BD.

^ Well, I was supposed to "O" while I was on vaca, but I never did according to my monitor, which is just as well, b/c we were staying with my in-laws and the last thing I could think of is BD with them in the same house...

So, I was a little disappointed about the timing, but the skiing was great!
