TWW is driving me crazy!

I am 5DPO today, anyone want to wait with me????
DW keeps saying I know we are pregnant which is driving me crazy too, I don't want her to get her hopes up or mine, she has said that before and we got a BFN!
Symptoms so far...2 & 3 DPO sharp pains in my girly parts LOL, weird. Also shooting pains on my boobs. Also, nipps are tender.
4 DPO heartburn has started but that's not new. Boobs are slightly and I mean slightly tender. Started eating pineapple...is my tongue suppose to hurt this much?!?!?
5 DPO legs hurt like crazy. Strange!
Confession: I POAS yesterday at 4DPO knowing what I would see but for some reason felt like doing it and did it
Saturday I have a baby shower to go to and I know I will be asked so did it work. Ugh! I will only be 9DPO and too soon to tell…dreading the question!

My baby, Stella ~ My nephew Alex and I (Denise) at Thanksgiving 2010
10 TTC's over 15 months - all BFN
Like I said my brain hasn't been firing quite the same lately. Hopefully its a pregnancy symptom.
"What if we're really pregnant. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. I can't believe this is really happening."
to
"Okay, we're assuming this cycle was a bust. It was our first try. Let's move onto planning for next month. What should our timing be? Do we want to make any changes? Another IUI?"
Honestly, we could both really relax into the whole experience a little more if we KNEW we would eventually get pregnant. Maybe not this time, maybe not next time, but at some point, there would be a BFP. And that is something we have no way of knowing...
4 DP IUI. I'm really ready for the next week to really fly by. I'm glad work is busy, but it's just not enough to keep me from obsessively checking my charts.
A few times a day I am flooded with a sense of being grateful for where we are at, at this specific moment in time. We are so lucky to even be here.
I hope your BFP shows up next time you test.
I too have CM, watery though and also new. If I chart that on Fertility Friend it changes my status to being fertile. WTH!!!!
So when do you all plan to test? Day of AF or before?

4dpo here.
2-dpo sore nipples
3-dpo much the same, gas
4dpo-bloating sore nips..
This though, seems like any other pre AF cycle I have. Oh and very bad irritability!
ETA my cm is almost dry!!! In other cycles it's not..but this not a good thing..argh!
Sky, a natural miracle!
EDD January 25th 2012
I havent made a decision about it. Ideally would wait till day 14 of my tww. AF would normally come around 14-15. But it's not likely that I will be able to wait. Definitely not before day 10. Maybe 12ish:)
What about you?
Good luck to everyone. February was a great BFP month. Let's do even more in March!
How are you all doing today?

I read this book called "Taking charge of your fertility". It is definitely right up the same alley as the fertility friend site. The charting looks similar although they go into even more detail. I really liked that the book teaches you how to factor the different information and what things weigh more heavily than others when trying to decide when ovulating. It sounds like fertility friend changed your status to fertile when you put in the cm. That is clearly not the case today. Also the book gave me another thing to read obsessively and kill some time in the tww:)
I wish I'd known a month ago all that I know now about this process.
Anyway, my boobs are looking big today, but sadly not sore at all. Maybe they will get sore from me poking them to see if they are sore...
Goobie has it right maybe I should take up knitting....
Hope everyone is having a good day:)
Big boobs are a good thing!
I keep looking for every sign but not much today, earlier had some twinges but for about a sec and all gone.
KTZ-I agree, I have gotten to know my body and 99% sure I did O on day 11 so going to go with that and if for some reason I am wrong I will learn from it.

I threw up. Is that a good sign? I was brushing my teeth after and praying that I haven't created some psychosomatic illness because I want to be pregnant so bad.

3 - 5 DP IUI sharp twingy pains low both sides more on right.
6 DP IUI creamy CM, gassy
7 DP IUI some creamy CM , dizzy spell in afternoon, gassy
8 DP IUI woke up hungry, less creamy CM
9 DP IUI woke up burping, hungry, funny feeling in back of throat.
Afternoon dizzy, felt faint in grocery store. temp 99.0, threw up in afternoon
Up until today all these symptoms were mild enough that I could have easily been psyching myself up. Today I know that I am either pregnant or something is seriously wrong with me.
A&B when are u testing? What about other tww's ?
By the way, You are all so great! I love that this forum is here. At least I know that if I'm not pregnant I have a beautiful supportive community. Thank you all!
I am 6 DP IUI. My test date according to Fertility Friend is the 16th but I'm sure I will test before. I am dying to test now LOL!!!
