I'm trying to figure out if I'm experiencing early pregnancy symptoms or just normal stuff. My last menstrual period was on May 4th, 2016, and today I'm 10 days past ovulation. We're planning to conceive, but since my next period is still about five days away, I'm not sure what to expect. Lately, I've been feeling really sleepy and noticed some watery vaginal discharge for the past 3-4 days. Are these signs of early pregnancy, or do they happen naturally? Would love your thoughts.
