in TTC after 35
Since I am not temping this month (just used OPKs and CM), I have now become obessed with phantom symptoms. And here I thought not temping would help me relax...dummy....
I have had nausea nonstop since Sunday (CD6) and am now on CD9. Last night was so bad that I was having problems sleeping. Monday night wasn't great either, but I had a race that night (sailing) and Lake Michigan had a lot of rolling waves that didn't make matters any better even after I got off the boat. Top that off with cramps (not in my normal PMS areas) and achy boobs. You all know where my mind is going. Can't it be this weekend already so I can test (or have AF rear her ugly head).

I have found that nothing much screws with your head like nausea during the 2ww.
I hope these turn out to be more than just phantom signs. Good luck Gundy!

The phantom symptoms SUCK! I hate them, except when they turn out to be real symptoms. Don't know what to suggest other than maybe take your temp until the weekend. If it stays up up up and higher than you remember you might not be crazy.
This is why I never stop temping. I can't stand not having the extra info.
Pulling for you Gundy!

This is a FANTASTIC idea!!! My willpower is free for you to take, it was useless to me this cycle.
Don't encourge me, Adi! I want to join you on the other board, but I am really trying not to think that far ahead yet.
Holy cow - you are already at 28 weeks!
Progesterone is quite the trickster- I've decided to ignore all twinges etc. during the 2WW b/c I've found for me, they mean nothing. But, I wish good things and positive tests in YOUR future!
FX!
I totally feel your pain. Yesterday I was doing some really light yoga and got dizzy/lightheaded so I couldnt' finish. Today I woke up with nausea, my skin has been breaking out for several days...BUT I promised DH I wouldn't test until Friday so here I sit at 13dpo knowing I could probably find out for sure right now yet I have to wait until Friday *sigh*
And I'm also on progesterone supps so who knows how many of the symtpoms are related to that! Good luck to you!!
Good Luck! Good Luck! I HATE phantom symptoms! I have had months when I coincidentally had the flu right around the time AF was due and of course I was sure I was PG..it was SO unfair!
My hope for you is that this is your month! I can hardly wait to see your good news...
Ticker Warning :::::
You ladies have way too much willpower! I was a habitual 9dpo tester because even if it was negative I could at least concentrate on something else for the rest of the day ..... Until of course the next morning when I tested again! Probably not the best idea.
Just so you know, I'm with Adi on this one
