Cramping, Pulling, Tugging Sensations?
43
Tue, 10-28-2003 - 12:53pm
Just wondering if anyone else noticed any odd cramping (sort of like AF on the way), pulling or tugging sensations in early pregnancy? I haven't even tested yet, but this has been going on with me for almost two weeks. Most of my sensations seem to be located at the very top or the very bottom and occasionally across the front. Sometimes it's more like cramps, and other times it's more like butterflies. I'm hoping this is a good sign!

Need more info?

Are you pregnant? Are you TTC?

When was your last AF? Was it normal? Have you been spotting? When did you O?

Here's more info for you:

Yes, we are TTC.

LMP: 9/25 (lighter than normal, but not just spotting either; came right on time); we were on vacation that week, so there was more hanky-panky than normal from 9/20 to 9/25.

I think I O'ed around 10/10 although I thought it would be a few days later (my last 4 cycles have been 34 days). I had EW on 10/10-10/12. We were intimate that week on 10/6, 10/8, 10/10, and 10/12.

On 10/6, I was feeling mighty weird (though maybe I was finally starting to feel ovulation coming since getting off the pill in May); had cramping and was lightheaded.

Weird cramping became noticeable around 10/19.

AF is due tomorrow. Haven't tested yet.

Other things going on:

* Prominent nipples (is this a sign?) but no soreness

* Tired

* Thirsty/Frequent Urination when drinking, but otherwise not much different

* Waves of nausea here and there (not today)

Hope that helps!

Not sure what to tell you - best bet would be to test if your AF does not show.

I am not TTC, but lurk on this board b/c I am sometimes scared that I am pg.

Sorry.

I have the same pulling, tugging feeling but most of all the butterflies. We are TTC and AF is 4 days late. scared to test, don't want to be dissappointed.

Hi there. I tested yesterday, and the result was a resounding POSITIVE!! It didn't even take 10 seconds for both pink lines to appear. I hope that when you test, you get the result you've been hoping for. Kerrie

It definitely meant something to me... just found out Tuesday that I'm pregnant!! The test was a clear positive in about 10 seconds. Hopefully, that's a good sign for you. Go take a test already!! ;-)

hey,

I have been trying to get pregnant for a while. I also have been getting some cramps, but

mostly the butterflies too. I thought this was strange to cause i have never felt this

way. i wonder too if i could be pregnant. I havent tested either for it is too early. I am expected to start my cycle in 4 days. Please post it if you are pregnant. I would love to know.
