Many symptoms many questions
I have nagging lower back pain like premenstral pains, headaches, very slight nausea, vaginal spasms and just passed a mucus consistent to egg white with a beige color tint to it. I had a tubal reversal on 23rd of last month and had intercourse on days nine and ten of my cycle. An ovulation test strip tested positive on day ten and then tested negative on day eleven. Starting on Saturday (this is Monday) I have had mild cramping. My boobs are not sore but are full feeling. Nowhere have I read online has anybody had this combination of symptoms. So, what's your opinion? Pregnant or not? It is too early to do a HPT; I am not supposed to have my period until bout two weeks.
Thank you for your reply. Just to clear some of the fog I created with not putting up dates...my day 10 was on April 16. Yep. Too soon to know anything. I just think it is strange how the symptoms came on all at once when I normally do not feel anything and havent since a week after my sugery. Why would an OPK test positive on day 10? And why didn't it read positive after the mucus?
If I am not prego then on my next day 2, I will call the fertility clinic and start IUI w/ Clomid. Husband left last Friday to be in Iraq for 3 months and getting pregnant is difficult w/o laboratory help. So, if not now then there is a good chance it will happen next month.
In the meantime, I will go to my Dr. and just fill him in on the symptoms and let him make sure everyting is okay and there are no undelying reasons for what I feel. Thanks again!

I am not sure about the OPK you took but the one I took said that ovulation occurs 24-48 hours after you get your positive OPK so that would seem about right for you to be ovulating now. I did even see some OPK's that said up 72 hours after you positive. I always get headaches, EWCM, and mild cramping during my ovulation. I don't think your pregnant yet but I think you are ovulating now. Good luck and I hope you get your BFP at the end of your TWW.

The symptoms that you mention could be from pregnancy, but they could also be simply because your body is just trying to readjust after your tubal reversal. You can probably take a test about 12 days after you ovulated, so based on when that date was, you can calculate.
