8DPO

Well, call me crazy, but my temp dropped this morning a fair bit but having a night of bizarre, definitely hormonal dreams, and weird low backache and bad crampy-type sensations from inside my hip to under my pubic bone on my right side only (hmmm...), I decided to pee on a stick. I know, I'm only 8dpo and have never tested positive this early before, even when actually pregnant, but well... what can I say? Crazy-Obsesso Woman strikes again! ;)

I know the temp drop might mean that my luteal phase is coming to an end, even if a baby has started in there, but I see the faintest of faint lines on my pregnancy test this morning. It was there within the right time frame and it's proper pink pigment, not an evaporation line. I should think people probably can't see what I'm seeing because often that's the case when I post faint early pregnancy test pics even when they're more visible than this one!

I wish I had the internet working on my computer because then I could edit a photo of the test stick so that what I'm seeing is more clear, like with contrast or whatever. But here is the photo I took on the new phone. I managed to upload it to Photobucket but can't use the editing stuff there. Hope this works!...

The only oother things of note today are mild queasiness like the last four days, and -I know it sounds silly - unusual clumsiness! I have been a complete butter fingers (remember when I inexplicably dropped a plate of apple crumble and custard and broke it at 8dpo with Matthew, and something very similar at the same early gestation with Nathan?!) and fell down the last four stairs when we got home from church. Heather and her hubby were on the ministry team this morning and when I went to be prayed for, I mentioned that I thought I might be pregnant, even though it might not stick, and Heather immediately squealed with excitement and gave me a big hug! That was soooo nice, I can't tell you! :)

Anyway, like I told Heather, I will keep you posted! Having learnt my lesson last time with Elijah (remember I had a big temp drop at 7dpo PLUS bleeding and cramping, so I totally presumed my period had arrived and stopped temping, only to think, "Hmmm...." ten days later and take a (very positive) pregnancy test!) - I will test again tomorrow unless my tempis down AND I am bbleeding. Right this moment I am feeling properly crampy, so we'll see. I'll go and update my chart now. Thanks for the happy comments! Nicola, if I'm pregnant (and it sticks), I would be due September 21st according to Fertility Friend. :)
