These two days are supposedly my fertile period (according to iphone period tracker). But we didn't BD last night. I guess Hubby was too tired from work and not in the mood. I was also tired from a swimming session with my friend.
According to my own mucus charting table, my most fertile day were on 12 and 13th. And we did ML. There are some spotting these few days and I read from my notes. It says it may be light bleeding from implantation.
Though yesterday and today, I have been hearing rumbling sounds from my stomach and feeling the bloatedness. I also experienced a little watery sensation in my mouth in the morning, feeling slight nauseous. Last night after eating a plate of chicken rice, I still felt hungry (though before leaving office, I ate some cookies and a pineapple tart).
I may be thinking too much or pinning too high hopes that we might strike this time. In fact, I do feel pregnant. FEEL is the word here.
-------------------------------------------
Last night at my brother-in-law's birthday chalet and I have the sensation that my period is coming and I thought I have been having the wrong "feeling" of being pregnant. I feel ache between my legs, I feel tired easily and I have also been having unusual hiccups and burping. (higher frequency)
Meanwhile, i've also googled on 'implantation bleeding'. All that was said just goes to assure me that I may be pregnant. I even tried to "hint" hubby but he kept asking me not to think about it and get stressed up. To a certain extent, it feels like he was splashing cold water on what I wanted to express. I know that I may be wrong. I may not be pregnant. But I may be. He made me a little upset just now. And so, he will not be the first to know if I am pregnant.
Anyway, even my hubby reacts this way, how would I dare to tell other people like my sis or my mom. In the end, I just told God about my experience and wrote down here what I have been through.
It will be an antagonising 2.5 weeks wait (or so they say). I pray that I have already conceived.
For now, I'm not certain. I guess I will check in January if my period doesn't come. In the meantime, I will take care of myself. You may be laughing but I have been sayanging my tummy and been talking to the little bean already. Hope the little bean will grow and grow.
---------------------------------
Today, I called Chen Mei Er to check if I can continue eating the chinese medication because I suspect that I may be pregnant. She said to stop the medication until I know the results. I'm still eating my Blackmores Conceive Well and then will start on GNC's Prenatal.

Future Plans
I got to know my bonus today at work and spoke to my boss. I have informed him that I have plans to leave next year. He said he likes me alot and finds that I'm a responsible person. But he will not stop me from pursuing my aspirations.
It may seem weird or crazy to some people. But i have set some goals for our future. I'm so grateful for today. I have so many revelations. Like I suddenly have perfect plans for the next 8 years in terms of family planning, career, finances and my goals. Hopefully, I can be a stay-at-home-mum when my first child is in K2. I am so thrilled. I can't wait to share this with hubby tonight.
However, i know that God's ways are higher and better than mine. Even though I hope that this will come to pass, I choose to put my trust in God. I will pray that His will be done instead of mine. I love you Jesus and I ask that You guide us in our daily lives.
I know that all things work together for our good. I'll pray over this and ask God for His grace.

Pre-seed : one
I used one stick of pre-seed last night. When I squeezed out the contents, it wasn't cooling or anything. I didn't even know it's out. I touched the liquid a little. I don't know how to describe it. It doesn't feel like gel, serum, lotion, cream. Not close at all to all the skincare that I've used.
It's almost as close to body secretion. Amazing.
Anyway, Hubby doesn't know why I wanna use it. I don't know either. I just thought I might be ovulating because I had a tinch of red discharge the night before. And I read from the books that it's a symptom for ovulation.
I may be wrong since I don't even know when is my next period and unable to count my days.
I guess I just wanted to try.

NFP Lesson
We signed up for Natural Family Planning course with Church of Risen Christ :)
Yesterday evening, Hubby and I went for our first NFP lesson. Andy gave a brief introduction on NFP, the Billings Method, how to observe my mucus and how to chart the daily diagram. This is a totally new concept and we both never heard of this before.
At first it's quite weird and to a certain extent gross. But we are told that this is an intimate activity that bonds married couples and it's wonderful to have the husband involved in the charting.
The registration fee is $25 and it includes some materials and also a book to take home.
Our next appointment in mid January 2011. I've started on my charting. I'm not used to this but I will do it for the sake of our planning.
