This is, of course, the month I didn't use my monitor to know when/if I ovulated, so I have no idea when/if I ovulated or how many DPO I am. I'm still nursing my 18 month old. We are TTC #4.
My AF should be here now and it probably will start as soon as I "send" this message out but I had a question. I usually don't get crampy before AF starts, usually cramps start late day 1 or day 2 when she really gets into full swing.
Today I've had horrible cramp type pain on the sides of my belly (around where the ligaments are) and I had that pain the last time I was pregnant. But today it is really really bad. No spotting, even at cervix, cervix is still high and soft and closed. If you've had more than a few babies does that pain in the ligaments gets worse with the next pregnancy?
I took a early first response this morning and it was definetly a BFN. I don't want to waste another one tomorrow and will wait until Friday to take another one.
Thanks for any help ladies!






I was kind of thinking the pain gets worse because I remember breast feeding #1 and having no contrations while nursing at all but when #2 (and #3) nursed those first few days it was like labor starting all over again it hurt so bad! So I was wondering if the same kind of thing happens to the uterus. The balloon getting blown up again kind of thing :)
That's a good point about just knowing our bodies better. It's certainly seen a baby before :). I do know that it's ligament pain and not regular uterine cramping and I know that because we've been down this road before. I guess only time will tell. Boy, a few days go by so fast usually but when you are waiting for something time bascially just stands still!
Good luck to you!
