I am curious how many of you experience phantom symptoms during 2WW? Did you find that they phantom symptoms increased and decreased the longer you have been TTC?

    Eye dew.

    I would not say they decrease, so much as you learn what thy true PMS symptoms are.  They become more ignorable.

    I have phantom symptoms every cycle.

    I wouldn't say they decreased the longer I've been trying, I've just gotten smarter and have learned not to read into it. I'm not pregnant until that second line pops up on a test, no reason to psych mysel

    Yep, I haven't been doing this long, but I definetly have the symptoms.

    I keep a level head about it and assume I'm not pregnant. Also, I'm having to learn not to tell my symptoms to my DH. He is worse than I am about assuming that I'll get a

    I have phantom symptoms. I just keep reminding myself that these symptoms are the same things I have before AF shows up. And no nothing as changed as time goes on.

    Baby N conceived after 1 miscarriage and more than 2 years of TTC. Diagnosis was low sperm count. We found success after 3 months of anastrozole to increase DH's testosterone and one IUI.

    I often have phantom symptoms.  It's hard not to over analyze every feeling and wonder if it's means 'this is the month'.  That said, the longer we TTC, the less stock I put in any of those, because I've seen how all other cycles turned out. &nb

    I was actually having daily nausea and was completely convinced I was pregnant before I joined this board. Then I joined, read about phantom symptoms and my nausea legit disappeared.
