I was constipated in the 2WW hope this is a sign for you

I also have strange bowel issues in the 2WW that i dismiss...

When I got preg with my two boys as an opps, I was actually not gaining weight with them, but trying to *lose* wieght and tone up. I was working out moderately, lifting weights moderately, and trying to eat a moderate diet of less sweets and more lean protein and more vegs. I actually think healthy fats (like extra virgin olive oil) and healthy food sways blue much better than just pure weight gain. They were opps but when I look back I remember that at their conceptions I was really trying to regulate my diet towards health only, and working out, so I felt like to be a girl swayer I had to go to an extreme, because for me moderation = boy.

BEEP BEEP BEEP the alarm goes off, it is 5 a.m. WAKE UP and swing your arm at your bedside table until you find your basal thermometer. Stick the right end of it in your vajayjay, in the exact same position everyday, and try to stay awake for five minutes. As you begin to wake up, realize how badly you need to urinate and try to resist the urge without squirming too much. Mentally tell yourself, "Just relax, it'll work out" -- chances are you'll hear that a few times today. Try to read the thermometer in the dark while your DP continues to sleep. When that fails, take it into the bathroom with you. Sit on the toilet and position yourself to either pee in a cup or on a stick. If you're really good, try to squirt a little out first. Give yourself extra points if you manage to do this routine without overfilling your cup or splashing a test window. While you wait, check your genitals for mucus. If you're lucky enough to find some, play with it! Look at it, feel it, stretch it. When you're done, go to the computor and chart your findings on FF. Analyse the data, and mutter to yourself, "You're probably just not trying hard enough" -- it won't be the last time you hear that today. If the calculations add up, go back into your bedroom and convince, cajole, and beg your DP to have intercourse -- and all the while remember not "to let the spontaneity go out of your sex life." After you're done, prop your butt up so it's higher than the rest of your body and lay there for a half hour. Figure out exactly how you're going to stay in that position for so long and still have time to shower, dress and have breakfast before you have to leave the house at 6:15. Say aloud, "If you can't even manage to do this, how will you ever manage another child?" -- another comment you'll get at some point during the day. When you finally make it out the door, remind yourself that, "This is the easy part" -- you'll hear that later as well. Give yourself a pat on the back for not only completing 5 a.m. chemistry class, but telling people the correct date when they ask instead of saying "Day 21".
