Topic: For those of you who have been pregnant Posted: 26 January 2011 at 12:20pm |
The month you found out you were pregnant, did you still get AF cramps and then no AF?
Just wondering what to expect if I do eventually get UTD.

I had the feeling like AF would come, but was curious so tested anyway, couldn't believe it when it came back with a faint line!
ETA: I did feel stretching cramps like with my first pregnancy but discredited them in my head it was too early for those sort of cramps and this month was a gonner anyways....We only managed a oncer before Ov and i was away over OV...

I had implantation bleeding so knew I was UTD well before my period was due. After a confirmed blood test I doubt I looked out for any other physical indicator so i'm not much help.

With #2 I was SO sure AF was coming as I had AF cramping when AF was normally due, and my temp had gone down in the lead-up to AF being due. Only tested because my temp shot back up again.
With #3 I tested well before I was due for AF (but again, temps dipped down.. wierd) and I had the AF type cramping again... but I'm still very much pregnant

I still got AF cramps. In fact I was certain that AF was arriving. I also had implantation bleeding but thought nothing of it at the time, except that the feeling of AF was on her way.

crampy, heavy uterus.
sore boobs but the clue for me is they instantly get bigger, which they don't for AF.
LOTS of CM.
empty hungry feeling.

The first time I had all the pre-AF signs including spotting and cramps and PMT but then AF just never came.
This time I had no AF signs at all, except the crazy eat everything I can lay my hands on hunger.

I got af cramps but once it was confirmed i was pregnant the cramps do actually feel a bit different to af cramps. Or maybe i just noticed because i have been pregnant before

The first time I felt like AF was coming but it never did so tested and got a BFP
Second time I was so busy I didn't even notice AF was late! But I did notice sore boobs, some cramps and a sense of smell instead!

With my first pregnancy, I was so certain that AF was coming and even took my sick leave from course (I had bad endometriosis so had to have a few days off each month) as the pains started...but then they didn't get really bad and I didn't get AF. At the end of that week I went to the doc, worrying that something worse was happening with the endo but was surprised with a positive pregnancy test! (Had taken one earlier and it was negative)
So yep I def felt like AF was on it's way!
All the best with TTC

I still got AF cramps, the only thing different that made me test early was sore boobs, which I don't usually get before AF (but lots of people do!)

Yep, totally like AF coming! Really bi***y and teary for a few days, feeling "heavy", light brown streaked CM... and then I started burping when I expected AF to start, and KNEW I was UTD this time! Last time I was still waiting for AF to start, it was just so late, but was almost 2 weeks late before I actually 'clicked'.
