pregnant?

Hi everyone,

This is the first time I'm posting on a forum, but since we've been trying for a third baby for over 15 months now, and every month I have to face that disappointment, I had a different feeling this month. I wanted to hear if any of you have experienced this too and ended up being pregnant.

I ovulated a few days earlier than usual (I could feel it). A week later, I got some cramps in my left ovary (that's how it felt). It was more of an aching 'pain', not really painful, but it felt quite intense. Then I had pain in my lower abdomen when I went to the toilet and saw a plug of mucus come out, a small amount of white-yellowish stretchy mucus. I thought, oh no, maybe I haven't ovulated yet, so I had sex with my husband that day. The rest of the week I had stomach issues, like nothing was digesting.

I also had quite a bit of headache for one day; it came and went. Headaches are something I normally never get.

Now, around my period, I have very light bleeding, not really blood, it looks more like a little bit of pink. Normally, every month a week before my period starts, I get breast pain and they become very sensitive. But this month, I don't have that at all, which I find a bit strange. I know sensitive breasts are one of the first symptoms of pregnancy. But the fact that I don't have them now feels weird to me.

I always have some light pink or brown spotting a few days before my period, so this isn't unusual for me.

I just hope that this time it will be a success (which I hope every month, of course ;-) ).

If my feeling about my ovulation was right and it was a few days earlier, I should be getting my period around this time. But lately, I've been feeling super good, without any ailments, except for a little light pink spotting.

Has anyone else experienced this too?

    Hi Ikke,

    It sounds a bit like my story...

    I ovulated on Feb 10 (ovulation test was clear and I felt it). On Feb 19 I suddenly had very light bleeding, just when wiping, you know... My expected period was yesterday (23rd), but apart from some light pink discharge every day and now and then a drop, I won't consider it my period.

    I tested this morning, negative.
    But I've been nauseous, dizzy, and have stomach and back pain for days. I'll just wait another week. If my period still hasn't come, I'll test again.

    Quick question for you... why don't you use ovulation tests? Then you're more sure about your ovulation and can time things more accurately. Also, after 12 months of trying, you can definitely see a doctor.
    And for now, I'd also recommend just taking a test, so you'll have some clarity right away (or not right away, like me haha).
