Period or implantantion bleed?

[ICEy]

Hi, I'm new to mumsnet and not even sure if I am pregnant! DH and I decided to start TTC on Christmas day and for the last ten days I have been feeling dreadful - nausea, lethargy, slight period-like pains in lower abdomen. Have done a couple of tests which were negative and am now bleeding. My period is due about now but the symptoms I've been having are really weird. Do you think I could be pregnant? Could my body have been thinking I was 'almost' pregnant? Anyone had a similar experience. Am seeing doctor later today but in the meantime am stressing lots!!

Hi ICEy. All through TTC I felt PG from mid way through my cycle until my period arrived. It seems the symptoms are very similar when your looking (nobody told me!) I've never had an implantation bleed (on my first pg now) but many people have. Just wait a few days and if the bleeding gets lighter you could test again. But in the end you may have to accept the negative result and move onto next month. Keep us posted though. Good luck
