Okay, I am pretty sure that things are a little wonky in the world of Karen.
I have been having some really sore nipples. But sore in a different way than the usual PMS.
They (well mostly the left) feel like someone has been grating them with a cheese grater. I also had some bleeding during the ovulation time, and now some very light brown spotting. I am almost positive that my hormones have gone crazy. I looked a few things up on the Internet. (My worst habit) and it seems that High estrogen levels can be the cause of sore nipples. I guess I should probably make an appointment with my doctor to talk about these symptoms, but I always feel like he is going to think that I am a hypochondriac, or that I am annoying him with all this. Sometimes I worry that it is early menopause. That would be my worst fear. I mean other hormonal issues can usually be treated, but menopause would mean I have missed my chances for motherhood.
I am only turning 32 in May, but stranger things have happened.

Those are also early pregnancy signs so maybe they are good things. Sore nipples can also be caused by higher levels of progesterone, something you *should* be experiencing in the TWW as your levels climb. They stay higher if you're pregnant. And spotting could be implantation bleeding or just break-through ovulation spotting. If you're concerned and this try doesn't work, see if you can do some blood tests during your cycle to monitor your levels.
