Driving Myself Nuts

Hi, all! I am new here and not very up with the lingo so excuse me as I muddle through all this! Happy to have found this forum.

This cycle was the first I used a ovulation prediction kit. It showed me ovulating a lot sooner than my app has (we've been loosely trying just using the app since May).

I know that even with the OPK and getting the right days (we had sex 2 days leading up to and the day of ovulation), there's only a 15-25% of getting pregnant.

So now 5 DPO, I am going crazy and trying, with no avail, to keep my crazy under control.

I have been experiencing sharper than normal lower right abdominal pain, I'm more clumsy than normal- like my equilibrium is off, and a little higher appetite. I may be a little more tired and/or grumpy than normal.

I feel like all of these things I could totally be reading into and could happen any time for a number of reasons. I really don't want to be disappointed (but let's face it, I will be if that evil red aunt flo comes no matter what).

I definitely don't "feel pregnant" whatever that could mean but I feel more confident than past months- if only because I know we hit the right days.

Anyone else with me here? Tips to stay distracted?
