Feeling a little 'odd' 1 week before period ??? If so, Join here!

[NewMember]

Hey!

I am due my period Next Sat - according to my CBFM I ovulated this month! I am beginning to feel more tired (although not sleeping well at night time), I am also having cramps in my lower tummy and back - also odd brownish discharge when I go to the toilet (tmi) - sorry!

What do you think?

Hello again NM

Really hope it's good news for you! Can I ask how many days ago you had this discharge/spotting? Just comparing symptoms!

The cramps sound positive - presume you're on about CD21 if you have a 28 day cycle?

I noticed it yesterday and today! I am on CD23 today!

What about you?

Had it on Tuesday and yesterday! Think mine might be too early to be implantation, but we shall see!

You never know - fingers crossed for u

Now having cramp like feelings and a little bit of blood! If its my period I am almost 1 week early - confused!

Oooh Oooh can I join?!

I too am due AF on Saturday but am beginning to wonder -

I've begun to cry twice this week over nothing - one of which was a picture of a very cute dog!!! Seriously, I scared my DP, I very rarely cry, so I wonder whether this could be an early symptom?

There have also been mild cramps so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

Ouch my hopes were dashed today, my AF turned up 1 week early! This has never happened before, so I am rather confused!

Fingers crossed for u tho

I'm so sorry to hear that

Fingers crossed that this is the last AF you have for 9 months though

Fingers and toes crossed

When r u thinking on testing?

I'm going to wait until next weekend - if AF doesn't arrive, the excitement will really begin!

Good luck for this cycle x

Thanx Lisey09 - fingers crossed for u 2 x

My next period isn't due til Monday 4th but my breasts have been incredibly sore and tender the last couple of days, and I've been very over-sensitive and emotional too.

I can often feel when I ovulate, and am sure it was the 18th, but then I felt another ovulation pain on the other side on the 20th Is it possible to ovulate twice in one cycle?

I think my period is due about the 3rd/4th (I am not all that regular) - this is going on a 5 week cycle as I think I am nearer that than 4.

Have been getting painful breasts on and off, am bloated to high heaven (honestly, I look ridiculous!), have had salivation problems and feel extremely tired.

Does anyone know, given that mylast period started on the 1st, when I can test - I hate the not knowing, it messes with my brain!

best to just test when period is due or is a day or two late, i know this is very boring, but it is cheaper than testing too early as millions of us women do every month!
as for symptoms, every woman is different.
some women are sick early on, some get metallic taste very early too. the saliva is a possible one. when i was pregnant with dd i ate like a crazy person and had no idea i was pregnant. i have small appetite, but i was having sandwiches in between meals! the sore breasts were a clincher for me and i tested positive.
the unfortunate thing is that period symptoms are often the same as pregnancy symptoms. mother nature can be cruel.
as for the ovulation willow it could be possible first pain was ovulation beginning and second pain was actual ovulation. you may have heard of woman who ovulated twice and was pregnant with 2 babies who were not twins. crazy i know. it was on news a couple of years ago!!! best not to think about that eh?! good luck
