Does PMS get worse when you're trying to get pregnant?

[misstiff87]

Hello everyone!

My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for about a month. The past few days I've had nausea, a tight feeling in my chest, fatigue, cramps, and other symptoms that are similar to my regular PMS symptoms just more exaggerated than usual.
I took a pregnancy test this morning and it was negative. Could I be pregnant and it's just too early to tell or do you get worse pms symptoms while trying to get pregnant?

Any ideas would be much appreciated!

Hi misstiff,

We have been TTC for nearly 3 years now and PMS is worse every month, I think you are just very much more aware of your body and what you are expecting it to feel like at any given point. Symptom spotting is an unavoidable nightmare.

That said, there is nothing to say that what you are experiencing isn't pregnancy.

Good luck xx
