Last time I was pregnant, I had atrocious debilitating migraines. After learning about magnesium (helps the body absorb calcium and fixes misfiring of nerves in the brain), my migraines went completely away - within 15 minutes of taking it. I've tried taking the magnesium before for migraines when I wasn't pregnant, and it didn't work.

So last night I had myself an AWFUL migraine and nothing would touch it (like normal). DH was about to make me drink a glass of wine (ew) but suggested I take magnesium first. "If it doesn't go away in 15 minutes, you can have a glass of wine," he says. A half hour later, DH asked if it went away and I said "20 minutes ago." I don't know.. I could be grasping at straws since we've been trying to get pregnant for 2 1/2 years now, with no success. I'm trying not to think about it. I'm due for my period on Tuesday. I forced myself to just pee this morning without taking the test I have in the drawer.

So you're going to wait until Tuesday to test??? Goodness you're a lot stronger than I would be! If you did test, it might not show a positive since it is so early anyways. I know when I was pregnant with DD, the test didn't show positive until the day of my missed period. (early prediction my butt!)

ANYWAYS! Keeping my fingers crossed for you. Keep us posted if you have any other symptoms or anything! If you cave and do test-LET US KNOW!

i resisted this morning too! it's a "quick hurry and pee before I think more about it!" kind of thing. So I only need willpower from my bed to the bathroom.

I'll be busy enough til Tuesday - my BIL is coming home from Germany to get married, our car's getting inspected, my FIL is putting a deck on the back of our house (and a porch on the front), and I have to paint and clean the carpets. Oh, and I have to do stuff for the wedding too. I'll keep you ladies posted. (And baby dust to you, Sarah! *****)

I was due today, but didn't test yet. I really want to test tomorrow, but I'm wondering if I should wait out the week and test this Friday (if I am preggo, it will let my HCG levels rise). My BIL is getting married Saturday though, so I don't want to steal their thunder. They're going away on Monday though.. I don't know. What do you guys think? I've had no PMS whatsoever (and I religiously get nasty PMS for 10 days before my period - just ask my DH! LOL) and I have been getting more migraines. I'm exhausted (which very well could be preparing for a wedding, which I'm in and helping to coordinate) even after sleeping 8 hours at night and having a nap during the day, and have had a hard time focusing while driving (which was a major thing I dealt with last pregnancy, but also could be from being so blasted tired). I guess I just don't want to see a "-" so I'm forcing myself to wait when all I want to do is test and get a positive. I'm trying to keep myself occupied with the wedding so I don't think about it... Is it all in my head???
