proof is in the progesterone.. phantom symptoms are ridiculous...

Let me be your guinea pig..

This cycle, we are TTA because we are off to a cruise and mardi gras in two weeks and I want to drink some hurricanes and get silly. The last couple of cycles, we were kind of throwing caution to the wind, of course hoping I was PG but not exactly meeting in parking lots at lunch to have sex if I was ovulating, either. Anyway, both cycles, I had a lot of pretty clear "symptoms" of some differences in my body after O. Some nausea, boobs hurt, moodiness, yadayada.  I hoped they were PG signs, but alas, they weren't.

Anyway, this month, we had absolutely no sex in the fertile window, and there is zero chance I am PG (unless DH has mutant sperm). And guess what? I HAVE THE SAME EXACT SYMPTOMS! The lesson: You are going to have different hormones flying around in your bod post-o regardless of whether you are KU or not.The fact that you or me ate a chicken sandwhich and felt like hurling at 4 DPO doesn't mean anything.

I am never going to pay attention to a phantom symptom again. I feel liberated!
