Cramping

I started to get pretty bad cramping this
morning. I'm pretty sure I'm going to
start in the next day. I don't know why
I'm so upset. It's been 10 days since the
start of my last bleed. That is the
schedule I've been on so technically I'm
due today, anyways. I'm
just so upset. All I want to do is go home
and cry.
Sorry, I just needed to vent.

I'm so sorry mc! I know how it feels. Man,
that would really suck to bleed so
freaking much. I'd be calling my doctor.

That's the frustrating part. I did call my
doctor. I was assured that everything is
fine and it just takes your body a while
to adjust to discontinuing birth control.
When I asked if it was normal to bleed so
much, I was told, "If it continues on this
schedule for 6 months we will bring you in
to run some tests and make sure you are
not becoming anemic." six months
It's not that I thought I would get
pregnant right away. But, I am so moody
all of the time because of it. It can just
make it harder to deal with.

Im sorry Mc that you are having af so
much. I think I would go insane if I had
af that often. That is frustrating that
your doctor expects you to put up with it
for 6 months before they do any tests. I
was told that I was anemic when I was
about 10 years old. I still think I have
a little bit of it still. Well maybe not
so much now that I have been taking the
prenatal vitamins, but before that, I
would bruise so easily.
When we first started dating Dh and I used
to play wrestle and one day he had "pinned
me on the bed"
lol and he had his hands wrapped around my
forearms above my head....anyways the next
day I looked at my arms and I looked like
someone had bound me with ropes or
something. I had bruises all over. He
felt so bad, he kept appologizing. he was
so cute... I said oh that's ok, I bruise
really really easy because I'm anemic.
Needless to say, the play wrestling
stopped.
I hope you get some regularity with your
cycles soon.

Thank you for your replies.
I'm feeling a little better this morning.
I still have horrible cramping but I
haven't started bleeding yet. I'm sure it
won't be long.
It's because I'm taking the prenatals that
they don't think its necessary to run any
tests sooner. I think it is taking so long
to get back into the swing of things,
because I started birth control so young
and was on them so long.

I started bc when I was 16 and was on them
until I was 24. I don't even remember
what af was like when I came off it was so
long ago. I do remember missing a few
periods, so I guess I was opposite of
you.
Hope you feel better!

I was 14 when I started taking b/c. So I
think my body hadn't really had time to
figure itself out yet.
So, I haven't started bleeding yet. But
I do have a absurd amount of discharge. I
just wish I could figure out what is going
on.

Maybe AF isn't coming. It could be
ovulation that is causing the cramping.
Is it EWCM that you are having?

Ok this is going to be tmi so the
squeamish should not continue....
I'm not really sure if it's ewcm. I
always thought that was kinda watery? What
I am having is large (quarter size)
goobs/bloobs of clear almost gel like
stuff. It is thick. I have never ever had
this before.

Can it stretch between your thumb and
forefinger? If it can it is very possible
you are getting ready to ovulate for the
first time.

Oh, how exciting! I would be thrilled! The
cramping is really bad and on both sides.
That is why I never concidered it. Last
time I had cramping like this I thought I
was ovulating, and I started bleeding
instead. So I'm trying not to get my hopes
up. I guess I will just have to wait and
see if I start bleeding.

I say forget about the waiting to see if
you start... I think you need to get some
candles and wine and do the deed!!!
Hopefully you are ovulating.

idea of ovulating!

I'm really excited!!!! I haven't starting
bleeding yet so I'm crossing my fingers
that I really am o'ing (I just hope
it doesn't hurt this much every month. I'm
pretty sure it's worse then when af
comes.)
Yep, we bd last night. It hurt so bad I
had to stop him twice. But I hope it was
worth it!
My first tww I'm so happy

That makes me feel better! I haven't been
able to get through the last 2 days
without some painkillers either. That is
the reason I was counting out the idea of
o'ing. I just don't remember it hurting
this bad. But I'm not complaining. I'll
take what I can get!
Thanks so much for your encouragement!

I was just reading mc and I wanted to tell
you that i stopped taking birth control 3
months ago and when I started ovulating it
was extremely painful for like 2 days. The
only reason i thought I was ovulating was
because I had that nice clear stretchy cm.
My dh and I did the bd and it hurt because
I was so tender but it ended up that it
worked because I am now pregnant and I
know that that is when I conceived. So
after reading your posts it sounded very
familiar to me so I just thought that I
would tell you that it could really be
possible for you this month.
Good luck and baby dust to you!!!!
