False pregnancy symptoms?

xgirl1977

Does anyone have those?

This is our first real month trying and our first cycle on clomid but I've had the craziest symptoms and I swear it's all in my head.  My DH thinks that I am preggo.

On CD10 we had a + OPK.

On CD 5-15 I was sick to my stomach (I figure from the Clomid).

On CD 16-18 I had AF-like cramping and was CRAZY tired.

Since CD16-18 I have crazy visible veins in my bbs and they are firmer and heavier.  My DH was shocked at the change.

I really don't believe that we could be. . .it's too easy with PCOS to nail it on the first try right?  I just don't want to be devistated if we aren't.

Thanks for reading my vent.  I get that way when the whole house is asleep but me. :-)

I have never taken clomid, but I do know sometimes AF symptoms can be mistaken for pregnancy symptoms.

I have had phantom symptoms in many cycles clomid or not, especially as AF nears (like ams said).   I don't know what day you are in in your cycle, your ticker says 21.  If that is true and you O'd on CD 10 or 11, you could always take a test.  Yes it's early, but if the symptoms are "real" you should be able to see a positive.  If you are charting, what are your temps like?

Hi there... Not trying to be a debbie downer but I've had false pregnancy symptoms (phantom symptoms) every cycle and I've not gotten pregnant yet.  I'm currently in my second cycle w/Clomid (100mg) and I have even MORE symptoms - but still getting negative tests.

I hope your symptoms are for real - but don't get discouraged if this month doesnt work out for you. 

Good luck.

All of this. The timing of your symptoms almost sound like ovulation cramps/pain and would be a little early to test. Best of luck though, I hope they aren't phantom!

Are you being monitered via b/w &/or u/s ? If so ( which I hope), you should know when you O'd and if it's from that ( the +OPK doesn't mean you O'd then). I had THE WORST cramping right around the time I O'd. Also, since clomid is a hormone, my bbs grew about a cup size a few days after I stopped taking it.

I agree with cute....if you think they could be pregnancy symptoms, take a HPT. If you are far enough along to get the symptoms, you are far enough along to turn a HPT +.

 Good luck, though !
