Could this be caused by coming off the pill? Or ovulation?? It's driving me mad!

No, am waiting until at least next weekend because I am worried I'll be disappointed and want to put it off!! Plus, I had a positive opk today and lots of ewcm so I guess I'm ovulating now and perhaps all those symptoms I've had are red herrings??

Could be - but some women get positive OPKs when pg, and CM can do weird things when pg too.

Have been looking at virtually my whole body searching for clues and two things that aren't there that probably would be if I were pg - my boobs don't hurt or seem different and I'm not especially tired.

Symptom spotting is a nightmare! Luckily (??!!!??!! I've eventually found the positive) I was in hospital during last months fertile window which prevented us dtd. I was annoyed, but then decided to note every little "symptom" I had through the rest of my cycle. Nausea, headaches, ov twinges, cramps, fatigue, runny nose, dizziness. You name it, I had it! Hilarious!
I'm hoping my notes will keep me sane in this months (my first) 2ww! If you asked me my pmt/ov symptoms normally Id have said 2 days of bad cramps just before AF! It's amazing what you notice once you've tuned into your body!

Having said that - fx your symptoms are real! If I were you, Id wait to test. If you can Grin

I can wait ages because I don't think I'll handle it well when I'm disappointed. More symptoms now which are probably just linked to ov - insomnia last night and veiny boobs, but they seem less veiny this morning. Nipples are sore though.

Being off the pill and ovulating can do weird things with your body!

I get really sensitive nipples around ov time as well. That should go down after a few days.

If you think you'll be disappointed, just wait for AF (e.g. assume it's two weeks from today) and if you don't get it test a few days later. It's easier to get your AF than to keep getting negative tests for days when you test early.

Yeah, that's true.

Is insomnia a symptom? I've had it for the last two nights!!

VJONES1985 · 19/08/2013 18:53

It is indeed and guess what? I've had it too! How spooky! Dropped of at 4am last night!

OMG!! I'm gonna be so disappointed if af arrives!!

VJONES1985 · 19/08/2013 19:07

Aw,me too. But according to opks, I'm ovulating today or tomorrow so looks like I got it all wrong anyway!!
