Symptoms After Artificial Insemination Posted: 07-07-05 01:48am
Hi, i'm brand new here...Looking on the
web for early pregnancy symptoms. I
have secondary infertility--isn't that
where your hubby is the one with the
problems, not you? Anyway,that's our
deal--doctor said we just needed to get
enuf good sperm up where it was needed and
I had 75% chance of getting pregnant.
So, after charting my cycle since january,
and with physical symptoms and use of my
trusty ovulite, we did the artificial
insemination on days 12, 14 and 16 of my
cycle. Today is day 24, so i'm due for
my period in 2-4 days. Here are my
symptoms:
literally within about 4 days of
insemination my breasts starting being
very tender and sore to the touch and they
feel heavy. I usually have a small
amount of breast tenderness pre-period but
nothing like this. Also, some minor
cramping that feels like a period coming.
I'm hungry all the time which is odd for
me, but no nausea yet. I had a very
small amount of dark brown spotting
yesterday and just now, tonight just the
smallest pink tinge of blood on the toilet
paper. Not sure if this is implantation
spotting or not. I'm also ummmmm
unusually interested in sex in the last
couple of days :oops: lol. I took a
hpt yesterday and it showed negative, but
I know that some are better than others
and that it could still be a bit early.
No more tired than usual, yet. I also
have a lot of gas and heartburn that I
don't normally have. I know these are
all symptoms but it seems early to be
having them....?
Do these sound like pregnancy symptoms or
is it all in my head and in my desire to
be pregnant?
Any thoughts are much appreciated!
