Kinda Scared

[iwannabemommy]

AF is due in 3 days. I've been cramping over a week and a half... I've got many pregnancy symptoms.. Mainly cramping, taking naps everyday, and moodswings.. I've got CM too. A LOT OF IT. But, I'm getting nervous. Just a few minutes ago I went to the bathroom and I checked my CM. It was white but had a brownish tinge to it. Now, I think it's AF coming... Someone please ease my mind. I know it's possible it's just spotting for AF but, I need something to hold on to hope. I know that a lot of pregnancy symptoms are possible AF. But I want it to be it. My cervix was very low the other day and now I can't reach it..(I know it's not a good way to test for pregnancy)

I will keep my fingers cross that you get a BFP:)

those were all of the symptoms that i had when i got my bfp!!  my biggest signs were being so tired like i was hit by a truck, mild menstruallike cramping starting a few days after ovulation, and i had implantation spotting at about 7 dpo.  hopefully that is the spotting that you are experiencing!  i wish you luck and baby dust!  let us know what happens!!!  what day exactly did you ovulate?  i got my positive 12dpo, the day of or day before my period was due...

well I think I should have ovulated around the 7th.. I know about a day or two before we BD'd. But didn't get to BD on O day. After O, I started cramping and getting nauseated.
I've had some throbs in my breasts and the nipples have been going back and forth between small and HUGE... what really sets it off is I'm taking naps during the day. I'm actually sleep enough to nap. I don't like naps! LOL. Since the CM that was kinda brownish tinge, I haven't had anymore that color... (that I know of) And, I do feel a little nauseated. So there really is no telling what's going on.

okay, I went to the rest room and gently pushed a soft piece of tissue inside , not too far, and theres a little bit of brownish tinge. Very light. But, I'm getting a little... umm.. hmm... what's the word... I'm losing ..hope.

Okay belly button pain? Kinda like a stretchy crampy feeling. anyone know what that is?

[iwannabemommy]

the brown spotting seems to have stopped. It's 3:03am!! LOL. Im tired but I can't sleep. I guess I'll be taking a nap tomorrow too! I'm usually in the bed before 11. lol

i had the belly button pains and weird stretching feeling at about 3 or 4 weeks pregant.  my implantation spotting was brown blood, but just a tiny bit when i wiped.  i would test the day you expect your period.  do you track your temperatures in the am?  i'm like you, never ever nap!  ...until first trimester!!!!  i was a zombie!

[iwannabemommy]

I don't track my temps. Although if I'm magically not pregnant I think I might try it next time. But, I think I'm pregnant. The brown spotting is gone... and it too was just a tiny bit when I wiped and 3 days before AF. Now I'm 2 days away...So let's hope for the best!

GAR, the brownstuff came back and it's mixed with pinkish. I'm so frustrated.

Good luck to you. This is how pregnancy started for me exactly.

[iwannabemommy]

thanks. I'm so frustrated. I'm trying to keep hope but it started yesterday.. which was 3 days b4 AF. And I'm afraid it's her peeking in saying she'll be here soon.

have you taken any hpts??  what is today's update?  if this cycle doesn't work for you, definitely track your temps!!  i kept detailed charts when i was trying and it really helped me.  i also used the ovul. pred. sticks, which were a bit expensive, but definitely helpful!
