False symptoms

Just a mini rant - this is my 5th month trying but I was sure this month was different.

Since ovulation I was sure I was cramping most days as well as having waves of feeling sick.

Period is due tomorrow and many many negative pregnancy tests and definitely getting my usual awful skin and back agony of AFs arrival.

I feel after this month I cannot trust my body for to rely on any symptoms as they are obviously in my head.

It is so frustrating- well done to everyone who is holding it together. And excuse the rant.

Ah dear I feel you! But what I can tell you - when I took a break from TTC I tried to notice every little thing my body does in the 2WW. And let me tell you it was wild! So even though I knew I can't possibly be pregnant I had at least four symptoms I could have sworn I never had before. But I think it's just due to the fact that I didn't pay attention before.

I feel your pain!! Last month I had the works - sore boobs, late period (by a day), nausea to the point I was even sick. Was devastated when my period started as I had just started thinking omg we've finally done it (trying for 10 cycles so far :-( )

Totally feel your pain. Last month I had every pregnancy symptom going and felt really similarly to my first pregnancy. No pms abdominal cramping and my period which is always like clock work was late! I was so angry with my body-it felt like it had teased me!! It's kind of freeing though as I've now accepted no symptom means anything so means I'm doing no symptom spotting this 2ww! Xx

Sorry to hear you are all also suffering the emotional rollarcoaster!

I forgot about this part when deciding to I try for our 3rd (and final). I'm sure I have blanked out many parts...

Really hope you all get good news soon Thanks
