      Was I WILDing?

      I went to bed last night repeating to myself "I will recognize when I am dreaming." After 5 or 10 minutes of this my left leg gave a jerk and my entire body went tingly. I pulled out at this point because I didn't think I could WILD without doing a WBTB (can you?). Was this SP or something else?

      It could be the beginning of a WILD, yes. The exact WILD process differs between people, so don't expect it to follow the same steps as the tutorials on this site.
      For example, I usually WILD in the morning just a few minutes after waking up, and without WBTB (as if I was just trying to fall back asleep), and I almost never have the SP stage.
      The jerk itself is called a Hypnic jerk, and is a good sign that your body is going to sleep (and if you notice it, your mind is still aware, and thus ready to WILD). It is not required that you experience this every time. The tingly sensation is more frequent.
      I think that SP would then appear after that, but I directly go in the dream at this point.
      Dec. 2006 - July 2007:
      92 DILDs + 30 WILDs ; 75% too short, 24% decent, ~3 of 2 to 5 minutes
      (I stopped counting after that)

      Yeah, sounds like you were on your way to a WILD alright.

      And though it's generally easier for people to WILD with WBTB I've heard of a couple people on these forums who can WILD right before bed.
