I hate when af & pg symptoms seem the same

butterflynola · February 2011

I'm on cd 23 and due to start on cd 28 so it would be perfectly normal to have af symptoms. I've been really bloated, irritable, on and off cramping, headaches and the very vivid weird dreams . The only problem is that I rememebr when I got my first and only bfp, those were allof the symptoms that I had then so while I try to play it cool and not obsess about getting pg because I'm sure that in time it will happen these symptoms are making me crazy and making me what if? and I hate that because I Hate psyching myself out! Ugh doing my best not to think about it.

I do this too!! Crazy how we try to compare and contrast what we once felt.

I know what you mean and I have given up reading into ANY symptom. Last month, I just FELT different a few days or so before AF came and had sore boobs (which is a new symptom for me pretty much from when I ovulate), headaches, felt hungrier than normal, felt run-down and plain old exhausted. I was convinced I must be because of the abrupt change in how I was feeling. Nope - just new, lovely PMS symptoms. Now, I'm feeling very similar, so I'm thinking that AF is on her way. Sigh.

EDIT: No idea where the shoes came from for my little picture. ??

My PMS symptoms have been out of control since my m/c. It has me convinced EVERY month is the month. I hope our dreams come true ladies! Good luck...

I know! MF killed me this month! I have never had sore boobs like this time. I was literally vocal about the pain- it was so bad. I thought for sure that was a sighn! My temp drop, spotting, and cramps say otherwise. It sucks they are so similar! *hugs* and good luck!

I'm there right now. My boobs never get sore with regular cycle and I keep thinking maybe this is it and staring at my chart forever as though it will suddenly ding and give me the news. :P I think waiting is worse with charting because I know more but still nothing that tells me anything.

I always get sore and swollen boobs about a few days to a week before AF, but my boobs were *extra* swollen the week before we found out I was pregnant. This is kinda what tipped me off to thinking I was pregnant in the first place. Maybe, just maybe this month will be a lucky month for some of you ladies!

I get the same feeling every month its so annoying. You don't want to get your hopes up if AF pays a visit but you don't want to doubt that it can happen again. Good luck! Yes waiting is worse with charting I totally agree.
