TWW - Feeling "hung over"

Hi.  I'm only 5 DPO and I have this feeling of being either hung over (although I  haven't had any alcohol in over a week) or like I'm starting to get the flu, just a really odd sensation.  Has anyone else felt this way?  Thanks !  :)

Hi.  I, too, am exhausted !  My eyes are so sleepy !   I've given up caffeine, which could account for something, but I gave that up last month... I guess we'll hope the "hung over" feeling is a good sign :)  I haven't been pregnant before, so don't have anything to compare it to, but I didn't feel this way during my last cycle.  I'm not supposed to test till 3/23, so it will be a long week :)
Thanks for responding !  Good luck to you tomorrow & keep me posted !

I'm also feeling hung-over (without drinking) and hope it's not all in my head..or the flu!  All I have wanted to do today is sleep.  I took a five hour nap and was shocked not to wake up!  This is not like me AT ALL.  I was a little upset at DH for not waking me up.  What a wasted day!  I'm also taking progest. suppost without any side-effects in prior cycles.  Is the hung-over feeling a side effect?  I am usually not such a tired person.  This is also my 4dpiui.  I go to RE 2mro after work to get progestone levels checked, but won't get resluts until Tuesday morning--hoping for a very high number.    I was pg once before and was tired/achey, but not this tired/ache.  Good luck to you and maybe feeling hung-over is a good sign!

So, it looks like we have about the same wait ahead of us !  Thanks for your comments.  I started at 2 DPO with an extremely dry mouth, needing to drink constantly, but my thirst was never quenched !  Then 4 & 5 DPO I'm feeling that "hung over" feeling. That's the only way I can think to describe it.  Also like my whole head is full of water ??  I know it sounds odd...  I couldn't figure out if it was the progesterone or if I'm getting sick ??  Anyway, I'll just have to wait it out :)  Good luck to you.  I'll keep my fingers crossed for both of us !  :)

Hi, today is my 4dpiui and I am also taking progesterone suppositories but I have no side effects except mild cramping now and then...
I am praying for any pregnancy symptoms because the wait is driving me insane!!!

P.S.  I'm taking progesterone suppositories, so I don't know if how I'm feeling is a side effect (although I didn't feel this way during my last cycle).  Just interested in some feedback :)
