How many days of bed rest have you girls done? I haven't moved from this bedroom since yesterday and I'm going stir crazy

[Katy]

I camped out in our "family" room b/c we have a big tv there and made the sectional up like a bed - I stayed down pretty much all day Sat PM (after ET), and Sun, but Mon and Tues I "worked from home" and was up and about, but didn't go outside the house except for a couple short walks. Wed on I was business as usual, but taking it easy.

I started cramping yesterday (5dp 3dt) and it's continued thru today with massive PMS symptoms today. I would have thought the progesterone would mask it (I took progesterone in Jan and didn't feel a thing till AF arrived), but who knows with all these meds. I had a few twinges on Tues & Wed (3&4 dp 3dt) like pinchy feelings, but no cramps at that time. I'm hoping that was the embie starting to burrow.

They told me 2 days of bed rest and then 5 days of light activity.

Good for you for leaving work early! I was "working from home today" and went and got a facial at 1:00 and played hookie rest of the day.

I feel like I have mushy brain! I usually have a great memory and do not forget things but I have lost my keys (first time), misplaced my ipod and my short term memory is gone lol! DH will tell me something and I will completely forget he told me. That is so not like me. Katy I have been so emotional today. I have broken down like three times!

I stayed in bed for 5 days total but have been off work for the full 2ww. I am just taking it easy going out a little bit and not doing very much. DH has been cooking and cleaning. He doesn't want me doing ANYTHING! I am kinda going nuts lol

I have had on/off cramping since the ET. In the first week I had a sort of pulling in the lower abdomen.

Sorry to hear your emotions have been errupting today, but it's really healthy to let it out. I play the piano and sometimes I go play and it helps as a release, but often when I am playing something really pretty, like this song called "you're still you", my eyes well up and I just can't help but cry. But is very cathardic to release.

I'm dying from cramps right now...feeling like these can't possibly be preggers cramps. I have masssive PMS - this month seems worse than ever. Ughhh

I still have bloaty feeling.. but zero cramps. I dont know what to think about that. Nipples are slightly sore.. but that is from the progesterone i'm convinced. I also have a sore back lately. No fatigue either. Hope this isn't a bad sign. I say this knowing i'm probably just in the process of implanting since i'm only 6dp3dt. I just want to go to bed and wake up on the 15th.

This waiting sux!

I love that song! I would probably cry if I heard it now. Stay positive, cramps are good.

OK, so I was a bad girl. I POAS 5dp5dt and BFN...stupid I know. Well I did it again at 6dp5dt....negative again. I got all depressed. Well I planned on POAS 8dp5dt, but DH was out of town and told me not to do it without him (I did not tell him I did the others....bad wife). Well I got up at 4:30 to pee and decided to just do it now (DH is home). I did and looked right away and all I saw was the control line (I am totally thinking it would be BFN due to my earlier tests). I brought the test with me to bed, did my suppositories, the whole time thinking this is pointless, why am I still doing these Darn things. Well a minute or 2 later I turn my light on for one last look (deffinately within the 3 minute window) and I see 2 lines!!!! I thought I was halucinating!!! I dont think I feel back asleep, I kept waking up to look at it. I kicked DH out of bed last night cause he was snoring. So here I am laying in bed, letting my suppositories do there thing, afraid to run downstairs and tell DH because the suppositories will fall out...LOL. I just told him now and he is so happy!! We are cautiously optomistic. Now wait for beta on Monday.
