So wait... 2WW symptoms are all a lie?

Question

I was just reading on the Ava website that any symptoms during the 2WW are caused by increased progesterone, which is high even if conception didn’t occur?? So is symptom spotting prior to AF a bunch of bull? Kinda feeling like my whole life is a lie 🤨🤣

Answer

Somewhat... Unfortunately yes, the symptoms are basically the same. However, I personally have different symptoms when I'm pregnant vs. just about to get my period (it varies from person to person). I don't really get sore breasts before my period even though some women do, and I got sore breasts for a couple days before I tested. I also had cramping, but it was a different type of cramping.

Answer

it's not a lie. Symptoms are just different for every woman. I know ladies who had their period on time and didn't have a clue that they were pregnant, and then I know other women, like myself, who do get the two week wait symptoms. During my first pregnancy I knew something was up because my breasts were sore and rock hard and I just didn't feel like myself. It's a good idea to right down things when you feel different. that way, when you find out you're pregos, youll recognize the signs and have a better chance at guessing in the future when you are again.
