Let's talk Phantoms ladies

jdmom03 · December 2010

For those of you who have O'd I'd like to here your Phantom Symptoms not just tell you mine.

But here are mine...

Bad anxiety the past 2 days (not normal at all!)

No Breakouts yet (dunno if thats a good or bad thing cause i broke out with DD bad!)

Light headachs for 3days (im used to hardcore Migraines so this is better lol)

Fatigue (not cool)

I sware i had a glow about me last night looking in the mirror lol

Anyhow We'll see in due time....What are yours?

So far I just have sore boobs. But I usually get this symptom around 8dpo every cycle and I haven't gotten a BFP ever yet.

jdmom03 · December 2010

I've have had sore breasts for a month now, but who knows maybe i'm still growing at 22? lol

SmlTownGirl87 · December 2010

I am only 5dpo and I have some cramping. In my mind it is phantom implantation. LOL

BostonGayGal · December 2010

glowing, really??

The month I lactated but got a bfn I was cured of ever paying attention to symptoms.

goldenleaves · December 2010

I'm 4dpo and have had some really sharp twinges in my lower ute area. I know it's not a real symptom because Dr. Google says I'm dying, LOL.

LOL that's funny

dawn3513 · December 2010

I am only 7dpo and I haven't had any symptoms. Sad

I've been waiting for them but nothing is happening thus far.

I had these last month. They were weird for sure, got my hopes up and everything.

I am still waiting to O this cycle so no phantom symptoms yet.

SmlTownGirl87 · December 2010

I'm 4dpo and also am having some cramping and sharp twinges. Sigh. Dr. Google wants us dead?

I haven't really read up on symptoms because I don't want to talk myself into thinking I have certain ones, so these are the things that are out of the ordinary.
Really irritable, like where I look at myself sometimes and think "who ARE you crazy person?" lol
Very sore boobs and alot of little bumps around my nipple..like goosebumps that stick out alot.
I feel brain dead. Could be from the holiday stress though.
Constant headaches for the past 3 days.
Pinching cramps in right lower abdomen on 5dpo. The discomfort woke me up.

Wow, that's quite a list of promising symptoms, dearie. FWIW, 5dpo with my first pregnancy, I had lower abdominal cramps that woke me up. Felt like needles...

Hope the symptoms continue!

Sh!t I hit reply rather than quote...

natkay02 · December 2010

LOL. What does Dr. Google know anyways...?

Well, I have no phantoms since I'm pretty sure I O'd yesterday or today. However, I haven't cramped at all... and I always get really sharp ovary pain around Ovulation... so my lack of phantom ovulation symptoms has me worried. Boo.

MooneyDee · December 2010

I've had a ton, but of course many of them are also around right before AF shows up. I've had: sore boobs (mostly nipple pain), mild cramping, slight nausea, minor headaches, bad skin breakouts, and fatigue.

Needles! What a perfect way to describe it! I kept thinking "what a weird sharp poking sensation." Needles is exactly it. This is my first cycle so therefore I am paying more attention to all the little things that are going on with my body than ever before. Who knows, I could have had these same symptoms leading up to AF in the past. I just don't want to be too disappointed, so trying to not think about it too much til I test on NYE. But of course there is that little voice deep down.

I got my BFP on NYE morning, and it was the best night of sober partying I've ever spent. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Really irritable, like where I look at myself sometimes and think "who ARE you crazy person?". On Christmas day I got so worked up with all the family hub-bub that I even stuttered while giving instructions to grandma. Poor thing looked scared. That is when DH pulled me in the bedroom and told me to lay down for a few minutes. lol

Pinching cramps in right lower abdomen on 5dpo. The discomfort woke me up.

Edit: How could I forget, I also have about 5 zits right now and I don't want to be annoying but I can't remember the last time I had a pimple with the exception of one every once in a while from AF. Even DH said "what is going on with your skin?" To which I pouted and made a crazy person face.

I've had all of this, too! For about 2 weeks now. Since it's my first cycle off BC and I'm not temping, I really have no idea when/if I ovulated. Today is CD 35. Really wishing I had been temping!

I've read that stopping birth control can cause most of the symptoms of pregnancy or PMS--headaches, nausea, sore boobs, acne--so I'm trying my best to attribute most of my symptoms to that. I'm pretty sure my sore boobs are from constantly squeezing them to see if they're tender! Embarrassed

haha oh my, let the poor girls rest!

Do you plan on temping next cycle if you aren't KU by then? I started charting mid way through my cycle and it is all over the place. I have been of BC for about 5 years and I do remember how crazy my mind and body was for a while until it adjusted being off the pill.

I haven't decided if I'll start temping next cycle. I'm a very restless sleeper--I wake up at least twice during the night, and one of those times is usually an hour or two before my alarm goes off. A part of me feels like I should at least try, but I'm worried most of my temps will be unusable, since I'm such a poor sleeper. Excuses, excuses!

psychgirl33 · December 2010

I get a pretty regular set of PMS symptoms every month: backache, cramps, sore breasts, slight skin break out, bloating. The only thing different this month was that I got pretty nauseous last night and then again this morning. Enough that I threw up....which I never do! I HATE throwing up! I'm hoping it's a symptom and not a sign that I have the flu. I don't have any other flu symptoms, though and I haven't had the flu since I was a kid.

Also I used an ic this morning (it's early, I know, but I couldn't help myself!). I saw a faint line. So I did another and it had a faint line, too. But the FRER didn't show anything. I'm hoping that there will be a darker line tomorrow and it wasn't just my imagination! We'll see.

You'd be surprised. My girls have gone from a 34C to a 38DDD since I graduated college seven years ago, and I'm 31.

I meant to comment on this, too. I also had spontaneous breast-growth at age 25 or so. I went from a 34 A to a 34 C over the course of about a year. Still have no idea why...

jdsprincess116 · December 2010

Hmmm, where to begin? Lol. Sore boobs, nausea, days and days of light spotting that I am convinced could be implantation bleeding, gums that bleed easier than normal, strange cramping... I could go on.

jdmom03 · December 2010

ooo im ganna add one, bloody nose
