anyone pregnant and bleeding with cramping

[bioclock1]

Okay...I'll try to make this short and sweet for those who can respond but haven't read my previous post. I think i'm pregnant. Lmp 11/19. Next due 12/19 (usually right at 31 days, 30 if you don't count the day I started). Had mulitple pregnancy symptoms: frequent urination, nausea off and on, visible veins in breast, odd stomach tightening, lots of cm all month (never happens), and what I thought was implantation bleeding 2 days ago. I started today with painful cramps and took 4 advil and three hours later I'm feeling fine without cramping (which is unusual for a period) and very light bleeding...very light. Mostly all brown but enough red blood to make me feel confident that this is my period. HPT still say -

Have any of you been or currently are pregnant and had bleeding that you thought was your period WITH painful cramps? I know it's possible to bleed but I haven't read anything so far on the forum about women cramping w/period while in the first stages of pregnancy (like 4-7 weeks pregnant).

I  would really love input on this so please respond if you can!
thanks a lot!

Thanks ladies. Alas....I think AF is the only new friend I have this month and she isn't exactly a friend. I've had nausea before (not this long though) but I don't understand the vein thing and the urination all day. What else causes that stuff?
Well, I know everything happens for a reason and if nothing else I've found a wonderful group of women to help me through things!!

Hey Lady. I'm in the exact same boat right now!! Mine started off really light Sunday night, contiued that way until yesterday morning. I thought it was implantaion but as it turns out I was wrong. AF veered her ugly head full fledge later on that day. I was so sure this month that we had finally gotten pregnant. Had what I thought were a few symptoms. The sore breasts, veins, urination, even in the middle of the night, and very emotional mood swings!! I thought I knew what I was looking for in symptoms, I've been pregnant b4, but had a miscarriage in july 07 at 5 wks.  Pms symptoms are so similar to pregnancy that I almost feel silly now for even confusing them. I was so sure this month!!! SO, in my opinion it doesn't sound like pregnancy. Like kstarr said, the sign of red blood isn't a good one, and you combine painful cramping with that, it is very unlikely that you are pregnant!!! Feel better

it's probably your period... but you could always get a blood test, and for future ref. don't take advil if you think you may be pregnant. tylenol is the only thing proven to be safe to take. and if it's red bleeding and cramping, even if you were pregnant it would most likely end in a miscarriage unfortunately, however, if you're expecting your period around now that's probably what it is. some cramping, but not really bad presistent ones, and some spotting or very light bleeding, but not red blood, is sometimes okay in pregnancy but not severe c ramping or red blood. i hope this helps.. good luck.
