Hey mandy, I wouldn't worry too much about being pregnant, wait till your missed period and then wonder, cause worrying will make your period late, I know its hard not to think about it but just be patient. I had my first baby at 16 and I am pregnant again, but its so hard, really think about this!

Thanks Rose, but my problem is figuring out when my period is due... who knows I may have missed it.. It's all over the place.. it's so annoying.. Lastnight I just noticed faint blue veins below my nipple... Does that have anything to do with it? I also have bumps around my nipples... I gues where the Areola is?... I don't know.. it's really weird.. I have to go to work now.. I will post again later.. someone please reply back?...This morning I almost feel as if I have the flu...Bleh!

Me too. I found out last Wed that I am preg. with my first. Felt cramping the night before the test. Still have on and off cramping in lower ab. My research also shows it is everything stretching and growing. Nice to know, just normal pains.

It's totally okay as long as it's not severe. I had cramping on a daily basis up until my 9th or 10th week. I still get it from time to time and I'm almost 28 weeks. It's just your uterus stretching to accomodate your little one.

Hello Mandy.... I definitely think you may be pregnant.. i did some research... and all the symptoms you mentioned were symtoms of pregnancy... in fact i am having the same symptom... i took a test today and it was positive.. i was stressed because i have had some cramping but no bleeding... reading this site has eased me... thanks

Hi all--wow, this site is a real comfort! I am almost 12 weeks and just now feeling some mild cramps--pretty consistent over the past few days, but not severe at all. I'm now feeling like they're pretty normal. Thanks for your rea__surance.

Well, Shenise... I almost hope I am pregnant but at the same time I have a feeling I am not. It is just my luck to feel I may be then I take a test and it is Negative then I get my period within a few days. These cramps are still going on.. they have been for almost a week now and usually my period cramps are like 2-3 days before my period starts. Yesterday I started feeling a sharp cramp below my rib cage not directly below a litle lower.. I don't know how to explain it. It is really strange.. I haven't really felt like puking lately but I have been really dizzy and had a nasty taste in my mouth...Bleh..This is odd.

I just found out tuesday i am 4wks, yeah! But i have had 2 miscarriage and 1 ectopic. So I am really scared my left side is cramping not the same as aunt flo but similar. i can only keep my fingers crossed. It is so hard after going through what I have to keep positve.I hope everything works out for all.

I'm glad to hear all the cramping is ok. I'm 4weeks pregnant now and wondering what is ok to take for the cramps

Hey, girls! It was a blessing to read all of your post. I started experiencing cramping in my sides around ovulation and it has continued through a positive HPT at 4.5 weeks. I was so scared I had an ectopic pregnancy that I went to the emergency room. It was too early to detect anything on an ultrsound but after testing my HCG every couple of days it is doubling. I've also notice a "dab" of brown and pink blood every once in a while. Probably wouldn't notice it if I wasn't looking. My progesterone was a tad low (12.5) supposed to be 15 or better so Doc put me on Prometrium 200mg 3 X a day. It's a lot and makes me feel cruddy but whatever I need to do to take care of the baby. I'm so glad you guys are experiencing some of this too. I have two boys and never had this problem. Maybe it's a "bossy" girl! :) I go in next wednesday for a transv____al u/s and more blood test. I'll let you know the outcome. The pain is not bad just crampy off and on during the day. errrr....can't I just be normal! Keep me posted about updates. It is so encouraging! Deanne

Thank The good lord that im not the only one going through this cramping stage as I thought that I could be losing the baby. Im 9 weeks into my pregnancy and I could'nt get any answers from pregnancy books, thought I was starting my period. Well good luck to all of you and enjoy your pregnancy. Ayanda

I think that I am a month pregnant. I have been having many symtoms of pregnancy for the past three weeks, and I am still waiting on this months period to arrive. I also have been having cramps, and it the feeling that I am on my period. When I go to the bathroom to check no blood is there. It get's worst at night, and it feels really funny. I have tooken a HPT, but it was negitive. All I am doing mow is waiting for my period.

Paradiseangel19..... I not sure when your cycle is due to start but i know i am pregnant now and i took a hpt about 2 days before my cycle was due and the test showed negative.. 5 days later it was positive... if i your cyle was due more thank 2weeks ago i would definitely recommend you see your doctor.. i hope this helps...

I am 5 weeks and I have had cramping for the past two weeks. It is getting a bit better, but it still scares me a bit. Also...this is totally gross, but I feel like my poop is a bit different, and somehow, maybe that is a slight cause of cramping. Who knows.

 

sandi - May 23

Brooke...are you talking about like loose bowel movement?

I am alomost 9 weeks pregnant and I cramp alomost everyday. Also several times a day. It's not severe but it does feel like major period cramps at times. Everything has been perfectly normal so far and i hope it stays that way.
