Unfortunately, your symptoms are just due to progesterone: lotion like cm, cramping, bloating. Those things can happen in any lp, whether you're pregnant or not. As far as the let down feeling, I still get that from time to time, and we're not TTC & I'm definitely not pregnant. I've had family members tell me that it can occur at any time, for years after the fact. However, it is very possible you're pregnant. Unfortunately, you will not be able to judge by symptoms, but by a bfp. Gl to you on your journey!

Probably is because your thinking about babies / or a baby a lot .

I kept having the let-down feeling a couple of months ago, its been over a year since I last BF. No BFP. And no idea why i kept having the feeling!!

Do you drink a lot of caffeinated beverages? My GYN took told me to cut back on the coffee a while back because the "letdown" feeling was happening every night when I would take off my bra.
Cutting back and no coffee after 2pm helped me.
