So it it cramping or the uterus stretching? Also, has anyone had a little light blood after s_x? Where is the cramping you have?

Bright- it's hard to say if that's pregnancy or not. The only way to tell is to wait and see. My husband and I had been trying for 4-5 months before we finally conceived. Two of those months I could have swore I was pregnant, with the symptoms and such, but I wasn't. Then when I did get pregnant, I didn't think I was! I was even nauseated, which is not what I had in my first pregnancy. All I can say is try not to get your hopes up too high or to get too caught up in it. It can be so stressful when you get those negative results. Enjoy the fun of trying!

well i dont know if im pregnant or not, but i have been having real bad stomach cramps, i've been going to the bathroom more often then normal and i have a sudden case of dry mouth but my period just left. My period just left on the tenth and i either concieved on the 4th or the 11th. Can someone help me or give me some advice i dont know what to do.

I may have concieved on the 6th or 13th due to that my period is not always regular. I also am experiencing some cramping since yesterday but yesterday I had some spotting and today the very light cramping is still there but I went to the bathroom and wiped and had a bright red color. It is not heavy not enough for a pad but it is there when I wipe. My period should not come until the 23-27 but I think it is too early to check with a hpt. What does anyone think this could be? And if I am pregnant is this light bleeding normal?

Hi everyone- My period is 14 days late. I have been very regular since getting off of my BCPs in January. I keep doing HPT and all negative. I also had a blood test at 4 days late that was negative <25. I am so confused and emotionally exhausted about the whole thing. This is our first month trying, so if I'm not it's no big deal, I just want to get my period and try again. I am getting symptoms, tender b___sts, fatigue, HEARTBURN. I don't know what to think. I called the doctor and she just said to wait two more weeks and test again. Am I getting my hopes up thinking I could still be pregnant? I am so confused and could really use support. Thanks

Hi Kristin, well, all I can say is be patient I know how hard it is to wait to find out if your pregnant. I had a m/s 2yrs ago with a d/c and I am hoping too that I am pregnant. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I think what I may have is implantation bleeding but I don't know for sure either. It is too soon to take a hpt. I just want to know if there is anyone that has also had this. It is light to mild cramping with spotting and today bright red spotting. Or is it too soon to have this type of bleeding if it is implantation that is occuring. Please help.

I am NOT alone, yay! My husband and I have been TTC only for one month. My period is due in a few days, but I have had nonstop, intense cramping, fatigue, and a backache for three days now. I don't feel like I usually do when AF is on the way. Something seems to be going on ... but it's too early to take a test, phooey!

P.S. Woops, not to be gauche, but I have had terrible gas as well for several days! Any ideas if this is a__sociated with early pregnancy and what causes it?

Hi, just wondering if anybody can help me.. my period is due in another 5 days, but I have been trying to conceive since my last period, which was on the 26th of May. I have experienced slight cramps on my left side where my ovaries are. It sometimes feels like a period pain, but I a__sume it's too early for my period to start. I have very sore b___sts (especially underneath). Does that mean i'm pregnant? I don't want to take a pregnancy test just in case it's too early. I will probably take one just before the 26th of June. Please let me know... x

Hi Sinamon, I had really bad cramps at weeks 4 and 5. When I got a pregnancy confirmation paper, I mentioned it to the nurse. She said that it was normal to experience cramping around the time that you would regularly have your period. At the time I was worried about ectopic pregnancy but now I know I'm safe. Sometimes it's good just to get on the phone with a nurse and explain to them how you feel. It rea__sures you and makes you feel better!!
