Possible symptom?

I'm 6 dpo today, and this morning I randomly started having pain in my underarms. The right one is way worse than the left. I've never had this before, it feels kind of strange. I actually took off my bra, which seemed to help a little (same bra I wore yesterday, no issues with it whatsoever!).

The rational part of me says: "It's too early to be having any pregnancy symptoms, don't be silly". However, one small part of me is thinking: "Why has this never happened before? It must mean something!"

I know it probably means nothing at all, though. As I was typing I got some stabbing pains in both breasts - not that painful but noticeable. I've had that before, usually in the luteal phase (progesterone does that to me, I guess!) - so I'm not reading anything into that. The underarms, though? Hmmm...

Anyway, I doubt that anything I'm experiencing now is related to pregnancy. At 6 dpo, the chances are that even if we did fertilize an egg, it wouldn't have implanted yet. I don't plan to test until at least 10 dpo, unless something really convincing happens in the meantime.

Yay, I ovulated! :)

Damn, it's been quite a while since my last post. We haven't seen MIL since that horrible night, 9/17 (almost a month without the crazy - woo-hoo!). Life is great without the stress she causes!

Anyway, so it took a while but I finally ovulated! On 10/7, which was CD24. I'm so happy that it happened, even though it was a late one. I must admit, I was starting to worry that there was something wrong with me because I thought this cycle was going to be anovulatory like my last one. But no, it's all good :)

My chart looks pretty cool, I haven't had this pattern before with my temps but I remember seeing it described on FF as a "step" pattern. I'm only 6DPO today so it's too early to test of course. My chart did something crazy and decided on CD26 that I'd ovulated on CD11, even though I was pretty sure it was actually CD24. Anyway, on CD26 since it was telling me I was 15DPO I figured I may as well test - negative, obviously, because my O date was in fact only 2 days earlier! So that's why there's a test on my chart on CD26. I'm not actually that crazy to test at 2DPO!! :)

I really hope we have a good chance of catching that egg and getting our BFP this cycle! It's my hubby's 30th birthday in a little under 2 weeks from now - wouldn't that be a great birthday present?! It's also our wedding anniversary this weekend. I don't know if I should have any wine when we go out for our celebratory meal... I'm leaning towards 'no' but maybe I could have 1 glass. I'll only be 8DPO then, so if we did catch the egg implantation might not even have occurred by that point. Hmmm...
