hi all
can someone please try to answer my question.
i started my period on Feb 11 and on day 16 and 17 i noticed some slight cramping which i assumed is ovulation pains. then on day 22 and 23 i noticed some light cramping again. could these be implantation cramping?
i'm due for my period around 11th or 12th March.
i didnt have any spotting with my last 2 pregnancies. my cycle seems to be around 30-32 days long. well thats what its been the last 2 cycles anyway.
some advice would be fantastic.
thanks
colette

Ovulation is counted by subtracting 14 to 16 days from the date you are supposed to get your next period. So, you don’t count the ovulation period from the start of your menstruation like many believe but from you’re the date your next period is due.

Knowing this, the first cramping could have been ovulation and the next 6-7 days cramping could have been implantation.
On which days exactly did you have sex?

How long are you trying to get pregnant? Well, it is just another 3-4 days until your period is due, so just be patient for a little while and you will know your answer. I know you can’t wait but unfortunately there is no other way.

Good luck!

hi Thanks for replying Jannie
i have been trying for 3 months but i noticed that i've been ovulating abit later, around day 16-18. we had sex on day 13, 15, 17, 19.
so i'm thinking its a possibility. i never had implantation spotting with my last 2 pregnancies.
what are your thoughts?
kind regards

Hi Jannie
how are you?
no i havent got my period yet, i'm now on day 34 of cycle. i did i pregnancy test on wednesday morning and got a very, very faint positive result. i'm going to wait till sat morning to do another one. with my second daughter, who was born 10 weeks prem and died 4 days later, i was 12 days late and did 2 hpt and 1 at the doctors and all came back negative then on 14 days late i did another hpt and it came back positive. i dont want that to happen again so will wait till saturday. the only thing i've noticed is my nipples are bit tender and i get a prickly type sensation in them and several times a day i get a milky, stretchy type discharge (no smell).
what do you think?
kind regards

I reckon it’s hard to say in your case since you are not regular but if the test showed positive I guess, that should be it. Have you talked about your doctor about these false negative results. Do you know why they turned out to be negative when hcg hormones are produced almost instantly as fertilized egg implants into the uterus lining.

Do you think that maybe it took the egg more than 10 days to reach the uterus or is there another explanation?

I don’t think that your symptoms are saying much because every time I am about to get a period, my breasts get swollen and tender, I experience a lot of mucus, clear, white discharge that I got scared that I might be pregnant ( I am still not planning to have children) and thank God I had that constant pre-period low backache so that I knew I was going to get the period. SO, as you can see-you never can tell for sure according just to the symptoms because they may be tricky.

I guess the reason for this is that just before your period and during pregnancy, estrogen levels are high, so similar symptoms may be felt but I also may be wrong with this one.

Considering, it’s Sunday……what did the test show?
