I hope the moods are a good sign! 10 DPO is still so early - you have time! Crossing my fingers for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whoa-what-a-wild-ride-this-cycle#post-32147 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 12:23:10 +0000 ParkerHaus 32147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Update: tested today because if it was a + I would reschedule my blood draw to add the blood pregnancy test- it was a BFN- which I was expecting. So on to waiting for AF. (I am 10DPO). I'm feeling positive about my progesterone levels though since all this craziness is a sign that my progesterone levels are increasing- YAY! </p> <p>@Mrs Green Grass, I am rooting for you and hope your progesterone levels are rising too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whoa-what-a-wild-ride-this-cycle#post-31827 Sun, 11 Dec 2011 23:27:09 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 31827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This was my first Clomid cycle and I have had way more hormonal symptoms too. I never have sore boobs/nipples, but mine were were sore 3-5dpo. I also had a crazy vivid dream last night. I've heard other people talk about them and I've read that there is a hormonal connection, but weird.</p> <p>Maybe we both have a lot more progesterone flowing around. Hopefully it's a good thing! (I'm 6dpo) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whoa-what-a-wild-ride-this-cycle#post-31800 Sun, 11 Dec 2011 22:35:59 +0000 s2kheartmustang 31800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm having a completely wonky cycle as well. After ovulation, extremely tender full breasts, tons of crampy as well as backaches, moments of evilness, and just feeling not like myself. I'm already a passionate person but this Girl is over the top. Dh is trying to sty out of my way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whoa-what-a-wild-ride-this-cycle#post-31612 Sun, 11 Dec 2011 18:44:38 +0000 MegWag 31612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally thought I was crazy the cycle before I actually got pregnant. My body went all kablooey and freaked me out! The next month I thought I was just insane and ended up getting my BFP. :) I wrote it up on my blog (in my profile) if you're interested in the full story. Keep the faith! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whoa-what-a-wild-ride-this-cycle#post-31611 Sun, 11 Dec 2011 18:43:24 +0000 ParkerHaus 31611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok, so I was just marveling at the craziness of this with the hubs and he said "welcome" to proper hormonal balance (i.e. my progestrone is improving). I said I prefer the old (nonemotional) me. He said "me too". Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whoa-what-a-wild-ride-this-cycle#post-31604 Sun, 11 Dec 2011 18:29:33 +0000 ParkerHaus 31604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whoa, lots of typos... Thanks cell phone. But you get the gist. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whoa-what-a-wild-ride-this-cycle#post-31603 Sun, 11 Dec 2011 18:26:50 +0000 ParkerHaus 31603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok, so this update might be long. This cycle has been crazy. I never got a positive opk but did get a nice thermal shift. We bd 2 days before the shift and we planning to bd on the morning of the shift but when I woke up i got an overwhelming feeling that i didn't ovulate. I was convinced. I had an extremely emotional day and evening. we are currently trying to treat low thyroid and low progesterone and my fear that I hadn't ovulated again (two cycles earlier my blood test showed I didn't ovulated) was the straw that broke the camel's back. I chatted on fb that night with an awesome group of girls and by the morning I had convinced myself that I didn't ovulated (we only bd once at -2 dpo) and that we should take this cycle off and next cycle off. We ent to church that am and there was a baptism. I fought tears through the whole mass and list miserably- tears streaming down my face while a beautiful baby was was baptized. My husband held my hand and rubbed it through the whole mass trying to comfort me. After mass I was a mess and I couldn't explain why. I ended up taking a nap and being better after that but WTF? Monday fertility friend gave me dashed crosshairs (because of no OPK) on Monday I also started four days of OMG my nipples are huge and sensitive. I googled "strong emotions after ovultion" and "tender breasts after ovulation" low and behold both are super common post ovulation symptoms" I chose to believe I did ovulate (rather than these being pregnancy symptoms) cue hand to forehead for giving up on the bding after one try. I go about my business. Thursday night I had a similar break down at church, again I couldn't explain it and the emotions were just so effing strong. Wednesday through today (sunday) I have diarrhea (sorry this post is full of tmi) and slight nausea. I actually didn't notice this pattern until yesterday when I had to visit the ladies room and got an overwhelming wave of nausea. So now I am paying attention, and I have some slight cramping this am (9 dpo). I am not convinced I am pregnant, in fact I amabout 40-60 in favor of not. I am not one to symptom spot and I am fly aware that my symptoms and the timing is completely plausable for a regular ovulatory cycle. But how effing crazy has this cycle been and how crazy would it be to bd once, convince yourself that you didn't O and may have O problems, and somehow end up preggers. The potential irony is not lost on me. My end of cycle blood test is tomorrow am so I will likely test in the am although if I had my way I wouldn't test at all and just wait for af.<br /> If you made it this far you deserve a medal. Have you experiencing anything similar (i.e. cray cray emtions immediately following ovulation). *sigh* </p>
