Pregnant, Ovulating or AF?

[DaintreeDream]

I am currently TTC #2, I am expressing full time and have not seen AF since DD was born.

For 3 days now my cervix has been sitting up really high, I can almost touch it and turned towards the back, although it does not feel soft to me. Yesterday there was also a spot of blood, just a spot.

I have been getting mild crapping and lower back pain for a couple of days also. And now I feel sick in my throat (I had really bad MS with DD so I think that this feeling I am doing to myself out of hope )

I don't recall ever getting ovulating pains before, I do get period pains but it has been a while and usually in my back only, not cramping.

I am not going to test until next week (Tues, Wed) because I think it is too early now.

When I was pregnant with DD I knew I was pregnant, I could feel it, I kind of feel like this again, but on the other hand maybe it is me just hoping?

What do you think?

Thankyou Puppies

no other help in which it could be...?

My cervix is still in hiding, still have mild cramps, still a couple a dots of blood (if that).

I did a HPT and it was BFN, however I believe that even if I am pg it is too early to test, was just being a bit obsessive by testing early.

Anything...? Looks like I have to sit and wait a few more days and keep testing... (DD did not show up on a HPT till about 5 weeks pg, so I might have a long wait )

Unfortunately I would warn you to reel in your hopes alittle. It is 'possible' that you may be pregnant, however it is more likely that you are not pregnant. Letting your hopes get too high at this stage is setting yourself up for a big fall if things aren't as you want.

I was in the same position as you not long ago. still am sort of.
I am breasfeeding (alot), annd I have been TTC for 4? months now. At first AF hadn't even returned. No luck BFN's. I finally got AF back. Still no luck. Lots of BFN's. AF overdue, but finally rears her ugly head today.

The whole time I have been TTC I have 'felt' pg, I have had alot of symtoms. My cervix was often high (too high to feel if it was open or closed). Both other pregnancies I got pregnant first try - the second took only one BD (weren't actually TTC just a little slip up).

This cycle I am going to invest in OPK's to see if I am even ovulating - It has got to be a more productive method, then wasting numerous HPT's.

I am telling you this not to get you disheartened, but to warn you that before you get af back, you really cann't expect too much, and that while some people can fall pg while breastfeeding, many others cannot.

I am hoping that I am one of those who can, that this cycle is the one for me. DS whom I am breastfeeding is nearly a year old (11 and a half months) and if I don't fall pg this cycle than I am going to wean him and TTC then.

Good luck.
