I bought an ovulation home-test kit. It gave me a positive on the 10th, but 2 negatives on the 11th. I saved them and according to the instructions, "a positive result will never fade" and to my surprise, the 2 tests I took on the 11th faded, but the one on the 10th was still there. The instructions told me that with the FIRST positive result, means you will ovulate anywhere from 12-48hrs.
My period was from June 28th-July 1st/2nd. So I also checked on a few websites and they told me I was fertile from July 9th to the 14th with ovulation on the 13th. But I've also read that you ovulate about 14 days after the first day of your last period, which means I would have ovulated on the 11th. My fiance and I had unprotected sex on the 11th and 12th (we're trying for a girl).
Yesterday (July 20th, 7DPO....or, maybe its 9DPO) was one week since my so-called ovulation day. I felt sick as a dog! Mind you, I dont usually get any symptoms before or during my period and I'm supposed to get it on the 27th. It started out with what I thought were symptoms of an allergy attack, but later grew into much worse.
Later on I had a high fever (101.6), a headache, chills, I was dizzy, weak and had a runny and stuffy nose. My fever finally broke after a long nap and some Tylenol and I felt a lot better, but not 100%. I read that this can be symptoms of the flu, but I thought it was a bit weird (and ironic) to feel like this out of the blue at exactly 7-9PDO.
Today my temp is 101.5, my lower back hurts, I'm dizzy/weak and I dont want to eat anything. I've read that sometimes there can be "implantation bleeding" and I havent seen anything yet. I thought maybe I was a little crampy in my lower abdomen, but maybe it was wishful thinking....or gas lol.
My boobs were slightly tingly for a day or so a few days ago. Also, I am peeing like crazy! I dont know when these 2 things started (before or after ovulation) and my fiance says that I've been real bitchy towards him lately. I admit I have been, but he is going through some things so he is also on edge.
I really hope this isnt PMS. I noticed that I'm a lil more emotional lately. I cried during Jack's Big Music Show for God sake lol. I also noticed that today I am not hungry whatsoever. For about a week I was eating everything in sight, but today....nothing. I feel like I should eat something simply because I'm sick and need to make myself feel better, but NOTHING seems appetizing to me.
2 weeks can feel like a lifetime. Today marks 8DPO, or 10DPO (CD 24) and I just want to know already!!! I know I could just be sick, but could I be pregnant? Also, can being sick with a high temperature decrease your chances of implantation? I've also been taking prenatal vitamins since the 1st of July (as suggested by my GYN). I really hope this helped us with conception *fingers, toes and eyes are crossed*

3:30am
It is now 3:30am and I do not have a fever, nor do I feel sick. At 7:10pm (July 22) I went to the bathroom and noticed brown spotting on my panties and a lil bit when I wiped. At 9:50pm there was nothing when I wiped, and nothing on my panties. This is making me wonder even more if I'm pregnant. I've been reading about pregnancy, symptoms, and "implantation bleeding". According to what I've read, implantation bleeding occurs about 6-12 DPO.....today is either 9PDO, or 11DPO. Could I be pregnant, or is my period about to start? I dont feel like I'm getting my period, then again I never do. Still keeping everything crossed that can be crossed!
PS - I also wanted to point out that I'm having lower left abdominal pain for 2 or 3 days now. What the heck is going on?
