I am 33 years old and have been trying unsuccessfully to get pregnant with my husband of 9 years, for the last 7 years!! :( I have had terrible menstrual cramps since I first started my period 20 years ago! I have a prescription for muscle relaxers so I usually start to take them as soon as my period starts!! I usually start out with light spotting then have a pretty heavy flow accompanied by bad cramps for the first day or two, then regular flow with out cramps for 6 to 7 days!! This month, I started out just really heavy and very bright red, I got my cramps but not my normal regular cramps, but like I said, I usually take my prescription meds right away... My period only lasted four days and left as quickly as it came and now I've noticed I have really dark nipples and they are usually more pinkish in colour!? They aren't sore or tender though, but I do pee ALOT more lately, but then again, I've wanted this for so long, I have misinterpreted all kinds of pregnancy symptoms before, so who's to say that it's not the case again this time!? Anyone have any USEFUL insight!? I have a pregnancy test waiting in the cupboard, I just can't bring myself to use it, the disappointment is too hard...
