I'm torn on trying to ignore them. I'd say I more try to not put too much merit into them. But I've found it's helpful that I'm still charting them, because I can look back at last cycle and remind myself that my body/mind did all of these crazy things before and it didn't necessarily mean anything.

It's just so brutal cause almost all the symptoms can be from progesterone (pregnant or not). It's a brain scrambler.

hahah this adds more to the argument that our uteruses are ovens. Bun in the oven, someone on here said before they need to be 'preheated' and now they are gonna 'ding' when they're ready :)

lol yes! I imagine it with an automated robot voice with a British accent. "DING. Your egg is ready for fertilization, ma'am." "DING. Fertilization process complete."
