Cramps An Early Sign of Pregnancy?
Posted: 01-13-05 21:38pm

Okay, so heres the gist.

In decemeber I got my period 3 days late (dec21) I had unprotected sex with my bf dec 27,28,29,30,31 jan 1,2,3,5,6,7,8. (geeze thats alot of sex :? ) anyways, ive been having cramps for about a week now, kinda like period cramps, but less severe, more annoying than anything. My period isnt due until the 18th, (its the 13th today) my boobs are sore, and it looks like the ariola is swollen, usually I get cramps right before like a day before I get my period or when I get it, not 12 days before. Ive been having to get up and go pee in the middle of the night, when I dont usually have too. Im sleepy, and all that jazz, I took a test (5 days early) I figured it would come out neg, but im antsy. So now im waiting til the 18th, but anywyas how common is it to have cramps in early preg? I keep thinking its pms, but I know theres a possability of being preg.

Yeah, so I took an early pregnancy test, (ya I know what u said) anyways it came out neg, ive been moody and stuff, so I dont think I am. I really want to be, and its kinda depressing thats im not, but eh. The only thing thats weird, is how big my boobs are, it looks like I got a boob job, my bf even noticed. He was like u look different, ur all skinny and then have these huge boobs.. He thought it was funy. Anyways, I dunno, ill see in 3 days anyways, I also took the ept in the evening, and it said its only 83% effective 3 days prior, but if I dont get it in a week than ill test again. Otherwise, try try again :) I like talking with you tho so im not gonna dissapear mkay?! Uve been the only one thats helped me. Ive posted on other websites and no one respondes. Or they do but with nothing useful lol.

Ttyl

thanks

Geeze not too shabby lol.. Yeah the abnormal cells ive had them for a year now I guess, but they crossed off hpv as causing it (thank god).

Man these cramps are crazy, ive never had cramps this long.

I have been off bc for about 2years, I went back on it for like a month a year ago, but always forgot about taking it. So I just went off. Hopefully im fertile :) and im looking foward to next time :) lots of fun sex lol.. Girls are so determined when they want to be lol.

How far along are you now?

Hi, I too have been getting period-like cramps for the last 4 days or so. My period was due on the 16th, so I am nearly a week late. (i have been off the pill for over 4 months now, and I am having unprotected sex with my husband.) my breasts are swollen, heavy and tender, just like before a period, and my nipples feel a bit sore. I keep thinking my period will arrive, as I am a bit moody as well (pmt??) and I have felt sick on a few occasions in the morning and evening, but I haven't had any bleeding at all. Because my sister told me that she had some cramping in her 1st pregnancy, I am now thinking I could be pregnant, but i'm still reluctant to take a test just yet, because I keep thinking my period may still come, and I don't want to waste £8 or more on an unnecessary test...Do pregnancy cramps feel like period cramps? And can the symptoms of early pregnancy be similar to pmt? How much longer should I wait til I take a test? Thank you for any advice!

Thank you very much for your advice. Well, I took two urine tests yesterday and they both came out positive, which means I am pregnant!! I don't know how I could have not noticed, since I have so many symptoms...I am thrilled and scared at the same time. :d

Yay congrats!!

So, it took you 4 mths to concieve? How old are you if u dont mind me asking. Im only 20, so I know im at my peak fertile age, so im just wondering howlong itsgonna take... Im patient-ish tho lol. It kinda sucks that women only have a 25% chance to conciece any given cycle, yet ive read one thing that said ages 20-27 have about a 50% chance, but I think thats kinda bs. Well, im gonna try again this weekend. If I got my period on the 18th, between the 27-1st are probably the best times to try are right? Anywyas thanks, and ttyl

Could I Be Pregnant
Posted: 01-30-05 20:11pm

I think u might b preggy too. Cuz with me I thought I was gonna be starting my period since I was getting cramps and sometimes right before I get my period I get cramps. And then the second thing was that my boobs were sore and right before I get my period they begin to get sore. But in the end I am pregnant. Im 7weeks now, and am always tired

Not Always Pregnancy Cramps
Posted: 06-02-05 16:19pm

I started experiencing cramps/pain as I was waiting for my period to begin. Then I found out I was actually pregnant, and I was told that it was normal to feel pain like this. My pain was very severe and went on and off throughout the day. I had 2 checkups and 2 ultrasounds and they could not find anything wrong. Finally after my lab tests came back it turned out that I had a bladder infection. I'm on antibiotics now and i'm getting much better. I had a uti once before and it felt different than this. My point is, if you feel like something is wrong, get it checked out and make sure you get your point across. There is no reason to suffer.

Tubal Pregnancy
Posted: 06-06-05 10:58am

I found out I was 6 weeks pregnant about a week and a half ago, I started having some cramps and backaches and went to my doctor just to be safe. I got a pelvic exam and thought everything was normal. My doctor wanted me to get a ultrasound just to be safe. I got my ultrasound, and then was diagnoised with a tubal pregnancy, right away was admitted to the hospital and was scheduled for surgery the next morning. After surgery, I was told that I didn't have a tubal pregnancy, and that everything was normal. I just went through an hour surgery for no reason. Just wondering if anybody has expierenced this same situation. I am very confused on what happened, and have found out that the hospital skipped quite a few tests before deciding to do the surgery. Any information would be helpful. Thanks
