    Bloating??

    hi ladies,

    looking for some of your wisdom. Trying to get acquainted with my cycle again and TTC #3.

    This cycle I started to get bloating on CD20, the same day as experiencing EWCM. Does anyone else experience bloating around O?
    Is it a sign of O?
    Or a sign that my hormones could be a bit out of whack? (ie too much estrogen v progesterone)

    I have started taking vitamin B6, 50mg - recommended by GP to deal with PMS. Seems to help a bit but still have bloating and some more EWCM 5 days later. My cycles are usually 30 days plus.

    Thanks for your help.
    Gidget.

    Hi Gidget,

    Bloating is an O sign for me. Oh, the joy I bloat around O and AF. I think it is just the hormones. Good luck for #3, I hope you get that BFP soon!

    Thanks Scarlet.
    At least I can take some comfort in knowing that the bloating can be an O sign, even if it makes me look preg when I am not!!!

    I bloat around "O" time and "AF" time too, it's the hormones.... hormones... crazy hormones....haha!

    I get "O" pain too like mild cramping whilst ovulating it's weird. when on BCP pills i never noticed it as it wasn't there.. now i'm off BCP's you notice so many more things about your body than ever before...
