What's going on with my body?

I didn't think I should put this in the last post since it isn't related. I was really hoping we'd be able to actually try for number two this month and was pretty bummed to learn hubby had a last minute business trip...again. He got home at the tail end of the trying period and I didn't think we had a shot but since we had a snow day, well, ya, we tried anyway. :-)

I took a test 4 days before and it was negative and then that night I got my period. I never get my period 4 days early. It was also heavy and usually only lasts a few days. It's still there and I've been cramping like crazy. So the only thing I can deduce is that I might have had very early miscarriage. I haven't called my OB because I don't think there is much they can do. I'm still crampy and the tylenol isn't helping. And yup, hubby isn't going to be home again this month. I'm trying to stay in a good mood!!

I did get out for a run today. Felt good to be outside running instead of on the treadmill. I can't hack longer runs pushing the stroller when it's this windy outside so I'm just happy to stick with some 5 milers. Today was about a 4-miler and that's good enough for now. At least the IT band didn't hurt!!! Step up in that department!!

:( Im sure that's very frustrating!! Especially not knowing what's going on and wondering about every little thing your body is doing that seems different. There are lots of us who have been there... Good luck. And start traveling with your hubby! ;)

Hmm.. that's weird. I hope everything is ok! It has to be frustrating with the timing and hubby being away! :( hang in there!

I am so sorry to hear about all of the bad timing with business trips. And how confusing regarding your recent symptoms. I think that we are going to start trying for baby #2 soon and I am scared since I was an emotional wreck the entire time we tried before and it took longer than I expected. Getting pregnant isn't always easy. Good luck.

That stinks about the timing of your husband's business travel. Why are bodies so confusing? I think a lot of us understand your frustration.
