Silly Symptom Spotting

Opinions needed. Driving my self insane.
I'm cycle day 17 today and was expecting to get my peak but no such luck. I had EWCM Cycle day 9 which I thought was too early for ovulation but we dtd anyway just in case.
I have nausea, tender boobs and woke up last night in a cold sweat so my hormones are definitely doing something. I had spotting for two days cycle day 13,14.
Please tell me I'm not the only one who would be thinking I could possibly be pregnant. Logical rational me knows it's likely due to my peak being right around the corner but I can't help but convince myself it must be pregnancy hormones 🤦🏻‍♀️

You're not the only one. I haven't been symptom spotting but for the past two weeks I've been noticing things that are different x

Me to!! Thinking every little symptoms could be something!! Period due on Saturday. I've taken a few tests all negative although probably to early. Probably just getting my hopes up! But I just feel different!

Why do we do it to ourselves? Never take any bit of notice when not ttc but as soon as we are every little thing means we must be pregnant 🙈

Absolutely!! And I'm sure our brains are imagining half of the symptoms!!

How are we all getting on with our imaginary symptoms ? 🙈🤣

@positiveovernegative still got mine 😅🤦‍♀️although they do seem different to PMS but I'm probably imagining that as well!! AF due in 2 days! Took a test yesterday which was still negative so I'm sure AF will arrive shortly.

How about you all?

@Km12345 my ovulation tests are yet to turn to peak so I imagine all my symptoms are related to my increase in hormones trying to stimulate my ovaries to release an egg.
I've had EWCM twice this month 🤷🏻‍♀️

Still having symptoms here too. I don't know if I had implantation bleeding or not. I think just not knowing is tiring as well isn't it. I am nauseous and I have been vomiting too. I'm trying not to overthink things though xx

@ButterflyBailey when is AF due?

OP posts:
ButterflyBailey · 20/08/2021 06:19

@positiveovernegative I'm irregular so not sure when AF is due. I had brown CM just over a week ago x

@ButterflyBailey I've always had irregular cycles when not on contraception but my last cycle was quite normal which gave me hope for this one 🤦🏻‍♀️
I too had pink and brown CM 8 days ago.
I'm tracking ovulation and I've not ovulated yet this month I don't think unless I missed it.

Me again 😅👋 feel like my symptoms are not here anymore desides the bigger boobs!! Although usually they hurt with PMS and oddly they are not hurting, just larger which is odd. Really looking hope now as I have like hardly any symptoms

ButterflyBailey · 20/08/2021 08:20

@positiveovernegative I think I ovulated, but I don't track it so unsure. Are you going to test or wait for AF? When is your AF due? x

Km12345 · 20/08/2021 08:24

Yeah i don't completely track mine either so bit hard to know sometimes!

AF is due tomorrow but sometimes can be a day or so after. After all my negative tests I think I might wait till Sunday to test again , as ots just so disappointing when it's a BFN

I'm going on holiday for 10 days tonight so going to forget all about it and test when I come back if still no AF. No idea when it's due as usually work it out from my ovulation but I've either missed it or skipped it this month 🤦🏻‍♀️

Yes, I think I will do the same. Negative tests are so deflating x

ButterflyBailey · 20/08/2021 08:32

@positiveovernegative @Km12345 I'm waiting until either Sunday or Monday but I can't say I have my hopes up for this month

ButterflyBailey · 20/08/2021 08:34

@positiveovernegative That's a good idea. I hope you enjoy your holiday x

Km12345 · 20/08/2021 08:34

@ButterflyBailey me either, not feeling very confident at all! But you never know !

@positiveovernegative have a lovely holiday and I hope you get your BFP after your holiday 😊

ButterflyBailey · 20/08/2021 09:04

@positiveovernegative I hope you have a lovely holiday. Don't get stressed about tests or anything and I hope you have your BFP when you get home xx

ButterflyBailey · 20/08/2021 09:05

Good luck to all of us xx

ButterflyBailey · 22/08/2021 07:02

@Km12345 Let us know how you get on this morning. My fingers are crossed for you 🤞🏻 xx

Km12345 · 22/08/2021 08:05

@ButterflyBailey well still no AF but I've bit got any symptoms which is odd!! The other day I had some really odd cramps so I assumed AF was on the way but now nothing!!

Only thing I have is lathee , tender books! So I'm really confused after all the symptoms last week!

To scared to even test now as I know it will just be negative!
