Trying to Get Pregnant

Phantom symptoms are driving me crazy!

I am supposed to test this Tuesday and was getting light cramps last night and this morning...I immediately thought "Ooohh, implantation cramps!!", and then I remembered that I get cramps about a week before AF...Don't you hate phantom symptoms?! Super Angry

Re: Phantom symptoms are driving me crazy!

  • I was just getting used to not caring about the 2ww as much...then I started Clomid. Now the phantom symptoms are back and driving me nuts!

  • lol, yep. I have heard the same symptoms from pg and non-pg friends.. if I didn't know any better, I'd think I might be pg now.. and we are tta and being really good about it. I'm about a week away from AF, and have sore bbs, irritability, fatigue, and little cramps every now and then. So, take it from me- it happens to all of us!

  • Phantom symptoms are a biitch.  I've been crampy for days, have sore nips and slight nausea, and am staaaaarving all day long.  I am two days past my longest LP right now, so who knows.  I'm sure my body is just screwing with me.
  • I HATE phantom symptoms. I get them even when I don't O!

    Your phantom symptoms are even convincing me! When are you testing?!

    I tested this morning, BFN.  I'll probably test again on Saturday...okay, let me be honest, I'll probably test everyday until I get a BFP or AF arrives since I'm super impatient at this point.  Time will tell!!

  • I don't like them either  They really screw with your mind.  AF is due to arrive on Sat or Sun.  I think the sore BB's and light cramps are due to that.
  • I'm doing a decent job of ignoring my phantom symptoms, but I'm having a harder time ignoring my giant temp spike back up this morning.  ::trying to tell myself it means nothing::

  • Phantom symptoms are going to be the death of me.  I had weird and different cramps/sensations this cycle, and my chart was so different from any of my other cycles.  As hard as a try to not get excited, it just doesn't work. 

    My temp drop yesterday made me cry...

  • I feel ya girl! Yesterday I had this cramping out of nowhere that felt JUST like the cramps I get when I get a pap. I automatically thought, could this be implantation cramps??? (even though those are rare)
