Let the mind games begin...

So here I am 4dpiui. Only FOUR days!! And of course, I'm either having all these symptoms or my mind is playing tricks on me. Take your pick.

Here are the symptoms I have had so far:

1. Sunday (day of IUI) - extreme pain in my ovaries like I could literally feel them inside me. They felt "heavy" and hurt especially when I walked or stood or moved. Basically they just HURT!
2. Monday through Today (1dpiui-4dpiui) - ovary pain diminished and now I have this weird pain in my abdomen, behind my belly button. It's like a tightening/pulling pain and if I stick my finger in my belly button, it is very tender. Again, it hurts more when I walk, stand up or move. Hurt worst on Monday and slowly decreased, but definitely still hurts.
3. Monday - Wednesday (1dpiui-3dpiui) - sensitive nipples
4. Thursday (4dpiui) - tender breasts (ever so slightly)
5. Sun through Wed nights (0dpiui-3dpiui) - waking up in the middle of the night to cramps/abdomen pain and having the urge to urinate to the point where it hurts when I finally make it to the toilet. And I NEVER wake up in the middle of the night - very deep sleeper.
6. Mon through Thurs mornings (1dpiui-4dpiui) - waking up about 1 hour before my alarm goes off - another thing I NEVER do.
7. Bloated to no end - this started about 3 days before my IUI and was really bad Sun, Mon & Tues and started subsiding yesterday. But there is definitely still bloat going on.

So - is it all in my mind or is it all real? 11 more days and we'll know for sure. One thing I am sure of is I'll probably drive myself crazy before then!
