Hello
Today I am 15dpo, and for about 4/5 days now I've had horrible AF cramps yet it's still not here?
Yesterday at 14dpo I had a very small amount of light brown discharge. Now that's gone and cramps have eased slightly this morning but still there.
I've never had cramps for this long before AF starts usually?
Has anyone had this?

Have you POAS?

DairyleaAddict · 09/09/2013 12:46

No I'm too scared! Cramps and discharge are back! Not turning into anything though! I'm gonna have to poas aren't I?

Think you need to POAS. This is pretty much how it happened with me but my browny discharge was from 10-11dpo.

Haylebop12 · 09/09/2013 12:48

Oh and cramps. Just hear yourself up for a negative :-)

Good luck.

ImpatientOne · 09/09/2013 12:49

Yes you need to

Writerwannabe83 · 09/09/2013 13:26

I always get excited when I know somebody is going to POAS!

Good luck!!!!

DairyleaAddict · 09/09/2013 14:04

I dont have any in and both DC are asleep at the moment :(
Would it still work if I got one this evening?

OP posts:

Writerwannabe83 · 09/09/2013 14:24

Definitely!!

I got my BFP at gone 4pm in the afternoon at 14dpo.

I had tested with two brands that same morning with the 'oh so powerful FMU' and both had come back as negative!

Just don't have anything to drink for 3-4 hours before you plan on testing

Best of luck for your results!!

DairyleaAddict · 09/09/2013 14:28

Thank You, Did any of you get AF cramps if it is BFP?
I remember having some with my first but it felt different. I had none with my second.
God I'm driving myself crazy here!

I'm similar to you, af due today and I got faint bfps on Saturday and Sunday. No sign of af yet though, but lots of cramps today. I'm not hopeful though, I had chemical pregnancies in both the last 2 cycles so am convinced this will go the same way. Good luck to you when you poas :-)

DairyleaAddict · 09/09/2013 17:35

Hopefully this is a good month for you this time owainsmum! I still haven't been to get a test! One minute the cramps are so bad I'm convinced AF has started. Now back to only slight cramps. I really don't want to test coz I'm scared of the result. But it's all I can think about too!

OP posts:

DairyleaAddict · 09/09/2013 19:26

Af got me! Just wonder why it took so long. :(

OP posts:

Haylebop12 · 09/09/2013 22:49

So sorry :-(

DairyleaAddict · 10/09/2013 11:02

So it turns out AF didn't get me? Apart from a small amount of link pink blood last night it stopped soon after and nothing since! Now this morning I'm getting stabbing pains in middle of stomache! Sometimes I have to stop what I'm doing and wait for it to pass! I know I know I need to go doctors but DH has gone to his first day at new job and have no one to watch DC. I really don't fancy chasing a 2 year old and 3 year old round a doctors surgery.

Apparently women can have a bleed, called a Break Through bleed, whilst pregnant at the time their period would be due!! I had some bleeding when I was 7 weeks pregnant (so 5 weeks after conception) and this was the explanation given to me. Something to do with the hormones still adjusting.

My friend didn't find out she was pregnant until she was just over 10 weeks because she thought she was still having her periods - when really she has very light periods and was just having break through bleeding. She'd gone to her GP about stomach aches and diarrhoea and when he asked if she could be pregnant she said definitely not and explained about her 'periods'. He got her to take a test in the surgery and she got the shock of her life!!!

DairyleaAddict · 10/09/2013 14:09

Funny you should say that writer wannabe! I've had a bit of an upset tummy today. I know I'm gonna have to get a test but I'm scared it will be negative and I'm still gonna be stuck in this limbo. I will update when I have POAS

OP posts:

DairyleaAddict · 10/09/2013 16:58

So I POAS!
And as I got off the toilet AF started with a force :(
Why do our bodies wait until you are POAS to start!
I had convinced my self I was pregnant!
I even sat staring at the BFN willing to see another line even though I knew it wasn't gonna change :(
On to the next cycle!

OP posts:

Writerwannabe83 · 10/09/2013 18:15

Oh no

Best of luck next month though x x

ImpatientOne · 10/09/2013 18:27

Oh :(

POASing always has that effect on me too - bringing on AF! A very expensive bad habit.

Good luck for next month

DairyleaAddict · 11/09/2013 10:46

Thank you!
