Confused symptoms

So I woke up at 5am feeling sick as anything, 5 mins later I had the most horrendous period cramps…. 24 hours to test and my body is not helping!

On a serious note I think the progesterone for me is what gives me most of my “pregnancy symptoms” in the two week wait. You know the sore boobs, the moments of nausea all the things that people say “I just knew I was pregnant because of x or y”. Me I get that when my progesterone levels to spike, which is a good thing they do but not helpful in the whole spotting a pregnancy thing. Evolution has got to solve this 2 week wait headfuck at some point, there has got to be a better but subtle way of your body letting you know. It is a very inefficient use of emotions, googling and brain space!

24 hours to go I am not hopeful can you tell lol!!

    I hope you get good news tomorrow!! Do your best to stay busy today – easier said than done, I know, but you’re almost there!

  2. I know the feeling. Progesterone does mess with the brain. Hopefully tomorrow will be “positive” for you though… 🙂 Happy Monday!

    I feel the same! I go in Thursday for my beta, but have already convinced myself that it hasn’t worked since I don’t FEEL anything! So, I’m sending you extra good luck vibes. If you get good news, maybe I’ll get good news, too!
