I also feel a bit sluggish. I sort of want to track all the little "symptoms" each month to see exactly what the pattern is but it seems a bit indulgent to mark down every time I am sleepy or gassy... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-some-parts-of-the-cycle-worse-than-others#post-1368013 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 17:03:48 +0000 Snowdrop 1368013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I find the beginning of the cycle, when there is nothing to do as such hard and the beginning of the two week wait where it feels like AF/BFP are so far off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-some-parts-of-the-cycle-worse-than-others#post-1366245 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 09:57:04 +0000 HolisticMama 1366245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think this topic is pretty interesting. Thanks for sharing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-some-parts-of-the-cycle-worse-than-others#post-1366209 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 09:49:55 +0000 bhbee 1366209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always feel like crap in the middle of the TWW. I'm pretty sensitive to hormonal changes and that is when progesterone peaks - for me about 7-11dpo I feel really tired and have some nausea even in a BFN. which is really depressing - I don't mind feeling pregnant but I want it to be leading to something! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-some-parts-of-the-cycle-worse-than-others#post-1366082 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 09:13:38 +0000 Mrs tartan 1366082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Happygal: totally agree, waiting on AF when you are not pregnant is enough to drive you up the wall! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-some-parts-of-the-cycle-worse-than-others#post-1366063 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 09:06:41 +0000 Happygal 1366063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For me it's the end of the TWW when I know I'm not pregnant, and I'm just waiting for my period. There's also a wee glimmer of hope that I'll be one of those stories where I didn't get a positive pregnancy test until very late. It's so disappointing and I just want my next cycle to start. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-some-parts-of-the-cycle-worse-than-others#post-1366035 Wed, 22 Jan 2014 08:54:19 +0000 HolisticMama 1366035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm beginning to feel like Week 3 of my Cycle is pretty rough. I'm not sure if it has to do with hormones (OF COURSE it probably does), but I just struggle. </p> <p>I often feel just tired enough as not to be as efficient as I want to be. (If I was wicked tired- I could justify not doing anything, but this is JUST tired enough that it makes me feel like I should be doing a better job). And I start feeling doubt. </p> <p>(I guess this is PMS? I just haven't paid enough attention to it in the past?)</p> <p>Does anyone else experience something like this with their cycle? Are certain times of the cycle better than others? </p>
