TERRIBLE AF symptoms

[KrissyB]

Hey everybody -
So this past month was our first cycle TTC #2. And at just the right point in the month, I got the little pin prick/stabbing cramps that I've only had one other time in my life - when I had implantation cramps with #1.
Well, AF came along right on time... with a vengance. This is the WORST cramping/bloating and heaviest bleeding I've had in years....
I mean, obviously there's no way to really tell if maybe I caught an egg but it just wasn't sticky enough, or if it's all just coincidence. But I was wondering if anyone else ever experienced the same.
Either way it STINKS....

I experienced the same thing a few months ago was like 2 weeks late for af and when she finally arrived I couldnt move and nothing was stopping the pain only the strongest of nuerofen with codiene in took the edge off but could not even get out of bed no way of really knowing just gotta carry on to next cycle gl x

Wow - I'm not quite up to the codeine level, but I am either downing 3 advil at a time or not even able to lay still comfortably and not feel like someone just kicked me in the lower abdomen as hard as they could. I couldn't even deal with using tampons this cycle because there's so much cramping/pain/pressure going on down there.

Well just a few days more, then it's back to the fun part
