I can't help myself

I'm a post addict! Seriously! lol. I just wanted to ask while brushing your teeth your gums suddenly started bleeding? That's not normal for me.. I know I don't brush that hard. And also, I get tiny leg cramps at night. Or randomly rather. They just throb. My hands have been going asleep a lot too..  


For those who arn't following my posts I'll catch you up a bit.. AF is due in 2 days... I've been cramping for over a well week and a half. Yesterday, being 3 days before AF, I started getting brownish CM. Wasn't a lot but, I could see it.. It went away. Then today, it came back.. and it had some pinkish this time. Now, it's back to brown and isn't much there. Just when I wipe. Today my nipples are sorta tender. They're big in size and lightly brown around the edges.
I was going to test, yesterday, today, and tomorrow. But, DH decided he wanted me to see if AF comes. So I agreed. I guess now I'm just looking for your thoughts :)

Bleeding gums are normal and not uncommon during pregnancy (as long as it's not a ton of bleeding, of course). A little pink in the sink & gum sensitivity is one of the "joys" for many of us! Something to do w/hormones.... Minor circulation changes are normal during pregnancy too which may be contributing to your "sleepy" hands. I've had that throughout my pregnancy, especially in the beginning. I will be crossing my fingers for you!! And good idea about waiting to test until the day of your expected period. W/my first pregnancy I drove myself NUTS testing 3,2,1 day before w/BFN or super-faint-need-a-microscope-to-see-it (or-is-it-even-there?) positive lines.... with my second pregnancy I waited until the day of my expected period and got a super dark positive line!! There was no mistaking that one! :) **baby dust**

Thanks ladies! hehe. yeah Dh said it's better to wait for a blessing than to force one that might not happen as soon. :)

If it turns out you're not pregnant, though, go see a dentist as bleeding gums is a sign of gum disease. Hopefully it's because of pregnancy, though!!! Don't forget to keep brushing while preggo because that's when you're susceptible to getting gum disease and other probs. Okay, stepping off the soapbox now!

If im not pregnant, I'm going to change tooth brushes and if it continues I'll go see one. I should probably change my brush anyways :) lol

hmm the brownish discharge was gone when I wiped a few minutes ago. But, I wanted to know if I needed a liner incase. So I washed my hands and used one finger to feel. I wiped it on the tissue and it was pinkish/brown. Bright pink actually. Maybe it's the start of AF? :( But, I'm curious. can you get spotting, from an Orgasm? Without something going inside of you. Is that possible?

Sonicare is expensive but the best one. It got rid of my MIL's gum disease and her dentists were ASTONISHED. They now sell it, at cost (they don't make a profit), in their office because they recommend it so much. Can get it at Walmart I believe.

But I still hope you're pregnant!

ME TOO!!! lol so do you have any idea about the orgasm and spotting part? :\
