Sorry, i'm sure everyone is sick of me asking...just curious if this has happened to anyone else.

for one, i'm having TONS of CM...My breasts are hurting, and i'm having HORRIBLE cramps...It's too early for period cramps and even if by chance I was pregnant, it's way too soon for cramps...Just wondering if anyone thinks it's from the progesterone? I'm not really liking the suppositories...I'm thinking if this is something I have to stay on, i'll probably switch to the pills.

That sounds exactly like progesterone. My BB's get really heavy, sore, i get hearburn, headaches. It's like being pregnant. Hope they side effects go away.

Honestly I can't even say since this is the first time I've ever had the shot... but it doesn't seem any different than before.

I didn't notice too many symptoms from the progesterone... I think I was a little more tired and had a lot of headaches....

hmmm weird....Maybe i'm just crazy...I know the cramps and the CM aren't in my head though...that's what's really confusing me...especially the cramps.

Oh no, not saying that at all Megan... I know lots of ladies notice lots of symptoms that are totally EPS/IPS from the progesterone. So you're probably 210% right that it's from the progesterone.

OMG the side effects I had! My BBS felt like they were going to fall off, they hurt so bad. Yes I had CM, I had nausea, It sucked because I had soooo many pregnancy syptoms.. all from the progesterone.

Ditto! Progesterone makes me feel it ALL including the cramps. It is almost like a total tease. I stopped using the internal gel as I ended up getting a yeast infection from it. For me the pills are much better.

I hope you are pregnant!

I worry about a yeast infection too...the discharge is worrying me...I'm pretty sure it's not a yeast infection, but that's what it looks like...It's not hurting or anything...I was told I can switch to the pills if I don't like this, but I got 30 suppositories, so I need to use those up first (they are expensive)...i'm not cramping today, but last night, OMG it felt like AF was going to start...If I don't start spotting in the next couple of days then I know the progesterone is probably working...crossing my fingers.

I was on progesterone pills. They just made me really really tired. And lots of CM, so much so that I kept getting yeast infections. YUCK!

I'm starting mine tomorrow since I'm pretty sure I just O'd. Thinking of you Megan and hoping your side effects end in a BFP!

good luck Katie! I hope it's exactly what you need for a sticky baby

I've been napping since we got home from church...I feel dead! I have to say that it feels just like early pregnancy...I just have to make it through this week
