Yesterday, we had a long meeting at work and I had to stand and I started feeling dizzy. I know this may mean nothing, so I’m kind of discounting it. Then yesterday, I went thru a period where I felt feverish or like I was having a hot flash. Who knows what that was about either? But I know I am not imagining the swollen bb’s. They are definitely fuller. I noticed it this morning when I got up, and I have been feeling myself up every time I go to the bathroom at work (sorry for the nice mental picture). I don’t know what is going on. My bb’s never swell or get sore before my period, but of course all my normalcy has gone down the drain since the M/C. It’s just weird b/c today is only CD22 and I have no idea if I have ovulated or not. We bd’d on CD8, CD9, CD11, CD17 (big break while DH was out of town), and CD20.
I don’t know what to think but I do know that this was one of my first signs with my last pregnancy- I looked back at my calendar for reference and noticed I got fuller bb’s at 7DPO and didn’t get a + test until 10DPO, but I knew (gut feeling) I was pregnant from symptoms I was having since 3DPO, which included lightheadedness and hot flashes.
I am only on CD22 and my cycles usually run 30-31 days. I just don’t know what to think b/c this is my first cycle since M/C and those are definitely hormonal things but can they be caused from something else as well? Anyone have any insight? Could I have ovulated early? I don’t want to work myself up and get excited for no reason.

I hoep this is it for you!!!
I knew I was pg the 2nd time pretty much right away bc I was feeling so different (1st time around I had no clue at all until what I thought was AF stopped instead of going full force) but then after that loss every cycle after that I had the exact same sypmtoms . . .  our bodies do weird things after losses, mine was really different from loss to loss.
Good luck!!

It could very well mean you're pregnant. I know you don't want to get your hopes up, but, you're clearly not imagining these symptoms.
If you don't get AF by CD31 I say that you test, just to be sure.
Good luck Amber!

Def sounds good. You could have easily ovulated early or even ovulated late. I hope the symptoms continue and your hunch is right on! Please KUP

Thanks ladies!! You all are the best.
I don't know what to think- but they are definitely bigger and DH thinks so too! He's already shaking his head and saying, "great, this means I'm not going to be getting any for a while"..
I just can't figure out if it could be something else b/c I know my body can play cruel tricks on me too. It seems so early in my cycle to have any symptoms, but I guess not if I ovulated early.
I will definitely keep you posted. I started keeping a diary of my symptoms so I'll let you know!

DON'T test yet.... wait. Amber, what day do you usually ovulate? I am a 30 day girl too, but I O on cd 16-17. You know your body. I think that it's very possible. I really hope that you are!

Bobbie, you are so bad!!
I don't know when I'm going to test. The ironic thing is I just ordered 15 more OPKs to start using next month, and those came in the mail yesterday. It would be AWESOME if I didn't need them. I think I'm going to try to hold out until Wednesday- that would be CD28. But I think I will know for sure if I am or not b/c I should see more symptoms by then if that is the case.
Steph, I never tracked my ovulation until this past pregnancy, and we got pregnant the first month- so really just that one month - but I know I ovulated on CD17. But last pregnancy I got my first + on 10DPO. That's just the thing though, I have no idea when I ovulated this month. I have been bummed b/c I didn't even know if I ovulated at all. Now I'm feeling more confident that I did, but I just don't want to read too much into it yet. However, they are still fuller this morning.. I keep wanting to feel myself up!!!
