Going crazy!!

I'm near the end of my 2WW and I'm driving myself nuts wondering if this could be our month! I get all kinds of symptoms and start over-analyzing things every time I know I've ovulated, but this time is a bit more than usual! I'm 9DPO and have been getting higher than normal temps followed by a drastic dip and back up to high temps this morning. I've been feeling a bit of cramping like I'm getting AF but there has been no spotting. I've been feeling utterly exhausted, bloated, gassy, dizzy, tender boobs, etc., which isn't that unusual for me, but yesterday I was also getting hot flashes which is unusual for me! I keep thinking I'm just imagining all of this and I'm setting myself up for a big disappointment. But then I keep thinking I'm not feeling like my normal self so maybe I'm not imagining things? Either way, I'm going crazy waiting for my wait to be over so I can either face AF or take a test and find out what's going on! Anyone else out there feeling like this right now?

I'm not feeling that right now but I've felt it before. I was pregnant the last time I felt it. I ws only a day late and my periods aren't really regualr all the time so it wasn't unusual but I just knew. I couldn't sleep cause I was thinking about it. The next morning I got up and first thing I did was take a test. I was right. That time I even had cramps that night that felt like AF cramps but I still knew. I think it was implantation cramps.

This time I'm almost positive I'll be getting AF I have taken 2 tests and both said no but AF was due yesterday. I just wish it'd come already so I can get it over with.

I'm kind of the same as Panda1984. I'm not feeling those things now (hopefully just not yet, I'm only 4dpo), but I have felt the same way before, twice, and both times I was pregnant. :) Hope this is your month!

Well, my wait is over and I'm not happy! AF showed up this morning which means all these new symptoms I've been feeling are just in reaction to the ovulation or my mind/body playing tricks on me! And my Naturopath's solution is to have me take more supplements! So I guess now I just have to wait and see when I ovulate again and hope that month is a more "productive" one!

I am sorry AF came! this is my first month trying, and although I do not expect to get pregnant the first month of trying, I know I will still be disappointed if AF comes on the 28th:-( we will see....hoping this next month will bring your BFP!!!

Ugh that is such an awful feeling, I have done that to myself to especially if it gets close to a full two weeks I start "feeling" different. It's ridiculous how we can trick our bodies into thinking we are preggo! So sorry to hear that she showed up!! Hopefully next month, cross EVERYTHING!! Baby dust to you!

I know the feeling. I've felt it about 24 times. It's so hard because you want to stay positive, yet you also want to prepare yourself for a neg. I'm in my last week of waiting and it's really really difficult to stay neutral and ignore the craziness in my head. I wish you the best of luck this month!
