Ovulation...

Did you ever get period like symptoms when you are about to O??? I have been really depressed and irritable. I just want to kill my husband!
Maybe I am irritable because I didn't get my line on my OPK yet. It should be any day now. I did get a line the other day but it wasn't dark. Since then nothing. What was up with that? I am just confused.

Re: Ovulation...

I don't get the "same" symptoms, but there are some similarities. Like hunger and I get annoyed fairly easy.

You are probably just getting irritable because you are waiting for your LH surge. It may no be hormonal, but more mental.

It can be a real PITA waiting, I know.

Also, I use the cheaper OPKs until I see what I think is a positive LH surge and then (using the same urine) I check it with a CBE smiley face OPK. Maybe try that? They are much easier (for obv. reasons) to read.

Re: Ovulation...

I definitely get irritable around my O. I only noticed this since we are going to an RE and I know exactly when we need to I noticed we weren't doing so during the most important time of the month cuz we were usually PO'ed at one another! Hello!! Doesn't help the cause does it?! So now I am extra careful about my mood swings and reactions to DH so that we can get our groove on Most people PMS the week before but I am 2
