Af pains but no AF

[PinkPalace]

Has anyone had AF pains but no AF after their baby was born?
What do you think this might be?
I had them a little a couple weeks back then a few the past days - mostly at night.

I am seriously the only person in the whole of belly belly that has experienced this?

Hey sorry, I am having the opposite, where I think I have AF back with no pains....

it seems noone has any idea bout mine either

Good luck. I hope u figure something out soon

Our bodies are bizzare... i had bleed/spotting for 6 weeks post partum squishee - do youthink that might be what you are experiencing?

i used my maybe baby and have had ferns for 4 days now so i am stumped...

Isnt breastfeeding supposed to supress your eostrogen.. so why would i be ferning

[~Jo~]

Ovulation pains maybe??

It took me almost a year for my AF to return after each child so maybe its your body just getting into some sort of cycle?

If you're getting ferns on the MB then I'd agree with Jo & say that you are probably ovulating. Breastfeeding *can* suppress ovulation, but it's not always the case.

it so hard to say - last time we were ttc i ferned for 2 weeks?
Would ov pain really last 5 days +?

[~Jo~]

Maybe not 5 days..might be a bit excessive...i know for me though its not unusual to have it last for 3 days.

Jo - do you mean the cramping or ferning?

[~Jo~]

Sorry cramping

Jo

[PinkPalace]

lol ok.
Cramps are better today... but feeling run down and nauseated...
Oh the joys!

Still no AF though

mya, maybe do a pg test just to make sure. The nausea sounds strange to me and ferns will appear in MB if u r pg so....

[PinkPalace]

mmm thanks Kat,
so ferns do appear if pg? i wasnt sure about that.
i dont have any pg tests but hopefully can pick some up on the weekend.
Its just a strange feeling, dizzy too!

[katkins]

Mya, I had the same thing when I was pg with Jess. I had nausea and dizziness and felt like I was pg. I think it would be wise to test, even if it just rules it out for a bit. Mind you. I had -ve HPT's till I was 10wks with Jess so even if it's -ve, you may still need a BT to rule it out. Goodluck hon. I hope it works out for you, whichever way you would prefer...

Thanks Kat i will let you know how i go.
