It’s still too early to tell for sure, but I have a feeling that I’m pregnant.
Technically my period isn’t supposed to come until tomorrow. I started feeling cramps on Wednesday the 11th, which made me think I was getting my period early. But it still hasn’t come, and instead of the typical pre-menstrual symptoms, I’m increasing getting the feeling of fullness in my breasts. I’m also getting more heartburn and feeling more fatigued.
I am trying not to be overly optimistic. I could just be over-analyzing my body, and my period could still come in a day or two. Even if I am pregnant, the miscarriage rate is in the 20-30% range, and the risk doesn’t go down until well into the second trimester. And, of course, there’s the possibility of another stillbirth. I’m no longer innocently naive to all of the things that can go wrong.
But if I am pregnant, then it means that at least my body is working properly. We are getting a home pregnancy test tonight, and we hope for the best.
