The Big Thread of Early Pregnancy Symptoms

[Embovstar]

On the cramps side of things, before my BFP, i suffered horrendous period pains. Really, heavy, slow, low down cramps around ovulation and af time. They'd make me screw my face up / curl up / sweat and cry from time to time. I used to take prescription pills for the pain.

Since BFP I still get the cramps but now they are not in the one place, they are on and off, feel more like "tugging" and on a scale of 1-10, prolly more like a 4. They are just "there", if that makes sense.

The boobs - pre BFP at around AF time, they'd be tender but that's it. Since BFP, OMG. The pain, especially since the past few nights, has been so bad that I have to hold them for extra support!! As in, if I'm in a nighty and get up in the middle of the night and go for a pee, I have to cup (my right in particular) breasts just to reduce the pain!!! It really is like NOTHING that I have had before.

The veins, I think I had veins on them before but now, they are mighty bluer!!!

Hope that helps!

Im 7DPO atm and the dont know if i making these things up etc but all i got atm is weeing 14+ times a day and sore bbs.
Btw has anyone had a BFP symptom as this- not constipated but having loose bowel instead?
xx thanks xx

I had loose bowels from about 6dpo. Still have it now. x

Just wondered if anyone can elaborate, when you have cramping before BFP does it feel very similar to AF or is it a different feeling? I should have got my AF yesterday at 11DPO and it's still not here but I'm getting mild cramps on one side every now and again. Have no tests in the house so I have to wait until 5 can get out and buy some! Ahh the frustration!

Thanks and good luck to everyone still TTC! x

Yes, early pregnancy cramps are very similar to AF cramps. Good luck! x

Hi Ladies,
I have had ovulation problems and therefore took Clomid 50mg days 2-6 to induce ovulation. Good news is that yesterday i got my 21 day progesterone test results of 72 ( anything above 30 indicates ovulation) plus i got a positive on OPK on CD13.

I am going crazy with symptoms and i am trying to keep level headed about this whole situation i have kept a record of everything i am feeling and listed below are my symptoms... let me know what you all think.

4 DPO - Sharp twinges on or near left ovary area. Lower back pain. Runny nose.

5 DPO - Slight twinges. Runny and blocked nose.

6 DPO - Irritable nose.

7 DPO - Weird hunger pains. Sore nipples that stand to attention. Runny nose. I sneezed in bed and a sharp stretching pain occured near my right side on uterus, i screamed a little.

8 DPO - Bunged up nose in the morning. Nipples and sore and erect. Went to toilet and sticky/creamy CM. Gassy. (Sorry TMI). Slightly tired during afternoons.

9 DPO[/B] - Restless night. Moody. Blew my nose and it bled a little. Bunged up nose. Really emotional. Felt really sleepy by afternoon. Lots of creamy/lotiony CM (sorry TMI). Slightly lightheaded.

10 DPO - Af cramping in morning and when i went to the toilet there was really scant, very light brown spotting on my knickers (Sorry TMI). Bunged nose. Sore nipples. Very restless night. Slight Nausea. Sore nipples and still erect. By the evening frequent urination.

11 DPO - 5.30 am up and out of bed. Woke up 3 times to pee during night. Runny nose. Pain from lower back to bottom of right leg. Really emotional cried to mum on the phone. Gassy by evening. Areola are swelling a little. Ovulation confirmed today from docs which gave me hope.

12 DPO - 2.00 am really hungry cramping on right leg. Breasts look swelled up nipples stand to attention quickly. Dry mouth. Headache. Went to sleep at 6.00 pm and woke up at 8.00 pm.

I am a nervous wreck! i know that some of the symptom could be from clomid but surely not all of them. You all seem to know more than i do. Could i be pregnant? i will test after Friday as AF is due Friday.

Sorry for making this long i am so lost right now and thank u for reading.

A/F is supposed to arrive on 24th aug, i have noticed my bbs hurt much more than usual, and seem to have got much bigger! dont normally get that, also i have a a bit of a snuffley nose for about a week. Seems to be a lot of cm (sorry if tmi) also i love tea but it tastes funny to me at the mo. Any of this sound family to any one with a BFP?

just updating my post ......Hey just thought i would post my comments by your seeing as they are pretty much like mine.....

Last Period was 18 july - 25 july and next one is now is 2 days late. my boobs been getting bigger for past 2 weeks and i have started getting cramps around 8th august and suddenly started bleeding, red blood but quite watery at not very heavy but was having bad cramps like menstrual pain. but one day when i wiped it was like very thin stretchy cervical mucus but was full of blood. and then it went just ever so slightly brown. no blood what so ever!!! so the bleeding only lasted 24 hours but i still had stomach cramps.all of a sudden the cramps had gone but the reddish watery bleeding came back slightly. The watery bleeding came and went throughout the day.

Also i have a map of blue veins across my chest and one really prominent blue vein on my breast leading right to my nipple. My boobs feel ever so swollen and tender and are getting fuller noticeably every day and my stomach feels full and swollen!!!

Now today i have very muddy brown coloured watery discharge with cramps!!!!

whats going on?? xx
