Vertigo in the 2ww

Hi all, I’m wondering if anyone has ever experienced vertigo or a spot of dizziness in the 2 week wait? happened 9dpo in the evening until I went to bed. Fine then yesterday, negative test but I know it’s still early. I’ve never experienced this before and don’t appear to have any ear issues. A bit of mad googling said it could be linked to a hormone surge or it could be a random coincidence. Just thought I’d throw my crazy thoughts out there & see if anyone experienced similar.

When I symptom spot I always tend to notice things that make me think it's due to pregnancy, but many pregnancy symptoms are identical to ones before your period comes.
One cycle ago I was super light headed and had an extremely bad back pain which honestly gave me so much hope but nope... Period came on time.
Hope that's not the case with you, or course. Just saying it's so hard to distinguish the symptoms and we are more aware of our bodies when we are in the tww so we notice things more.

You’re 100% right, we become so hyper aware during these two weeks. I say to myself every month I won’t symptom spot but as time goes on, I can’t help myself. Most months I don’t notice anything as in I know it’s pms. I’ve never had vertigo before (felt like I was on a ship, walking thinking I’d fall over). However could he due to the variety of supplements I’m taking or just a random coincidence. Thanks for the reply 😊

My mom had vertigo so I know it's not fun. Hope that's a one off instance. And sending lots of baby dust your way

I had vertigo for 5 weeks after labour, so it could well be linked to hormone surge/changes.
every little symptoms you think ohh it could be. But if we weren’t trying we wouldn’t even notice these small things.
good luck
