Just hoping to see some replies from those of you who are pregnant currently, in regards to your symptoms leading up to a BFP. Were you convinced AF was coming?
Oh yes - i think i even put a pad on JIC! Symptoms were very very similar, the only thing that made me think maybe im pg was that my bbs didnt stop hurting (they normally stop hurting a day or so before af actually arrives).
Yep - symptoms just exactly the same. BB hurt like hell, which, now that Lisa mentions it, they prob did hurt more then normal. But, i was charting, and didnt think i had even ovulated as my temp never changed as dramatically as it had the month before, so prob didnt think much of it.
I had cramps, sore boobs & bloating before I thought my AF was coming.
Then I had light spotting for 3 days but turned out to be implantation bleeding.
I still get cramps & have very sore boobs still.
AF symptoms & Preggo symptoms are basically identical. I didn't pick up that I was peeing alot more & doing stupid things though so sometimes they're good hints that you could be pregnant.
Its been a confusing time for me this month. I normally get hellish AF cramping/severe pain, heavy bleeding for a week. I came off the pill 5 months ago and have been TTC since. I"m 26 btw. Anyhoo - this month I was trying not to get excited, but had cramping start earlier than normal, and AF 5 days late, however started bleeding a bit today. I also had palpitations, indigestion, went to bed at 3 in the afternoon the other day. Just felt "different' and was holding off testing a bit longer.
Take a urine test will give u an indication. I didnt have bleeding with cramps I had bleeding later implantation bleeding and then again not long ago but bubs stil alive and kickin
Each time I've been pg, it has been rather unplanned and I just thought I had very severe PMS that month and that it was so bad because AF was overdue.
When are you going to test? If AF is 5 days overdue, it's the perfect time. I hope your bleeding is breakthrough bleeding
Might sound stupid - but my period was 2 weeks late and i still was sure my period was coming, i even wore pads and panty liners i was so certain! I experienced cramping which only stopped quite recently, extreme tiredness and extreme hunger - which i all get before AF anyway.
Hey,
I had cramps the week before AF was due, and wasn't even going to do a test. The only reason I did was cos AF was due the next day and I preferred to see a BFN than get the news from the nasty witch. I was surprised when I got my BFP!!
