Is your 2WW different now that you're TTC?
I've been at the TTC game for long enough to know that a lot of it is in my head and any body change is just a result of hormone fluctuation. BUT here's my question:
Do you notice things in the 2WW that you never paid attention to before TTC? For example, cramping during the 2ww (even early on) sore BB, pains in your lower abdomen/ovaries, etc. These things I feel are very very real. But Im wondering if I always had it, or if Im just noticing it since my MC in April b/c Im paying mor attention to it What do you think?
My Dr keeps dismissing the painful ovulation and the "pangs" I feel in my ovaries throughout the whole 2WW. I know he's a wonderful Dr but I cant help but wonder is it normal?

Re: Is your 2WW different now that you're TTC?
yes definitely. as to whether its normal for your dr. to dismiss your 2ww symptoms, i'd say yeah that's probably normal. the dr. can't really speculate and i'm sure doesn't want to get your/our hopes up, KWIM?

Re: Is your 2WW different now that you're TTC?
definitely. during my first 2 cycles TTC, i felt every possible symptom of pregnancy but it turned out to be nothing.
now that i found out I have PCOS, my mindset has totally changed. I am no longer overanalyzing everything, but i think that is because I know that I will probably need meds (which I haven't started yet). I know its still possible to happen naturally, but I guess in my mind since I don't think there is a chance, I am not reading into everything.

You're right.. and if he thought it were a problem, Im sure he's suggest some testing.
not getting a BFP every month gets my mind going nutso!

Re: Is your 2WW different now that you're TTC?
I was on the pill until October and the only symptom I noticed while on the pill was that I always got one giant pimple right before AF arrived like clockwork. I noticed CM from time to time but didnt know what it was and never gave it a second thought.
When TTC I analyzed every symptom even though many were things I had before while still on the pill. I tracked everything in iPeriod and it's interesting to go back and look at now.
fwiw, I also got one giant pimple the week before my BFP and I was sure it was AF coming!
