any thoughts?

On CD 17 today. Have been having cramps for 2 weeks now. On CD 8-11 I ovulated. Yesterday DH said that something felt "different up there". lol
I checked my cervix and it's high,soft,dry,and feels almost as if I had two big water blisters on one edge of the cervix.
Normally it's dropping at this point and hard as a rock.
Could this an early pregnancy sign? A menopause thing?
Last baby was born almost a year and a half ago...could it be that my body is just messing with my mind? lol
Nauseous,tired,peeing every 10 minutes...
It's that crumby menopause thing isn't it? lol

Ok, I'm going over to the menopause section now. Well I would if they had one. lol
Second test was taken this a.m and it came back negative. Everything is still the same...I'm either losing all my marbles or I'm laying all my eggs in one sitting. lol
I have never in my life heard of anyone having SHOW for an entire month and then having a late period. I've looked all over the net and can't find a single thing. From everything I've read it's impossible to be going through this. Ugh. Stupid net. lol
I've also read all I could about menopause and none of the symptoms are exactly identical to pregnancy symptoms...except the lack of period thing.
Time to make that doctor's appointment I guess.
Unless someone's read that there's been a recall on First Response...in which case I would try a different brand first. lol

43 in 7 days and still no change to cervix....except that it is now tilted up and to the left. Still soft,still high,still openish,still very wet (watery though,not creamy now,and still EWCM...like what the heck?
Aunt Flo is expected to arrive tomorrow some time...think I'm too old for this...but at least the 18 mo will have someone to play with. lol
Why can't I have grandkids like normal people do? lol
My oldest ones all tell me that they will never have kids...ugh...so I guess I gotta make my own grandkids.
I just got back into wearing my before clothes too....gave all the baby stuff away...so this better just be a menopause thing! lol

Lol, I'm with you on the waiting game.  When we were ttc Ryder I was the worst for taking those tests...I can remember trying them 3 or 4 days past O..lol.  Should of bought shares in First Response...would have made myself rich!!! Ha.  Even though they are not guaranteed until day AF is due, I had pretty good luck with them 4 or 5 days before hand.  Keeping everything crossed for both of you!!!

I'm going thru the same thing. I can usually check my cervix and know exactly what is going on. I haven't really had a normal period since my D&C. This month my cervix has been high for about 2 weeks I think and it is softer now then when I think I ovulated. The opening seem very open too. I'm worried something is wrong or that I didn't ovulate and my body is messed up. I had EWCM and everything but my cervix didn't change. I'm on CD21 so I've got a bit to wait also. I've also been cramping for a few days now. Keep me posed as to what happens with you. I sure hope it's good news for both of us!

I hate the waiting game. lol
Cervix still high and almost gone....eep.
7 days to go and counting. lol
Picked up one of those new digital ones....if it says positive I'm gonna faint...and it better be a girl.  J/k...boys are sweet too.
Kinda hoping it's positive as I'm scared to death of menopause...heard too many bad things about it. lol

I hate to answer this way, but it's impossible to know without a home pregnancy test.  I know, the waiting is for the birds, but if you are CD 17, you don't have to wait much longer.  I wish you luck!!
