Hmmmmm...I really don't get this. Last month (while on our honeymoon in Paris) we TTC. My cycle is like clock work at 28 days, ovulate on the 14th (feel the pinch), period last 5 days. As I was anxious to test this month because AF was late, she showed up two days late (I have NEVER been late that long). I had cramps (although somehow different than regular AF cramps (if you know what I mean)) and today...nothing...cramps are gone...AF is gone...(after only 2 DAYS!). WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON? I have been regular since I first got my period at age 15 (I am now 30). The month I decide to TTC, I get a short and late period with unusual cramps!?! Anyone been threw this??? Please HELP, when you are as regular as I am, this happening to me is really scary!!!

I would test, Or get a blood test right away! It sounds like you are diffently pregnant!

You know your own body, It might be to early to test, I hate to tell you this, But I would wait it out and see what happens. But, If this has never happened before, than it sounds like you are pregnant! Make an appointment with your docter right away!

Oh, I did the same thing just about, Read the one under your post. It's to poohbear12.

I think I am pregnant with # 2! I hope this helps!

I read your post and it did sound similar except your AF was early (which could of been implantation bleeding), mine was 2 days LATE and it only lasted 2 days. I had pregnancy symptoms last week (before AF) but now since Tuesday (AF showed up) they are all gone. I think it is all the stress surrounding TTC. Tuesday morning when I woke up (and AF was two days late) I tested and got a BFN.

I've always been so regular and now that I am TTC can't seem to figure out my body, everything seems out of whack for some reason.

Hey, I know what your going through! I went through the same thing when I was TTC my daughter. What every one told me to do is to relax! It was very hard for me, But it works!

I read on the internet, that you have to relax, B/C if you don't you can make yourself inferlil! OOOHHH, That made me even more upset, But my DH calmed me down, and we finaly hit the right day and got pregnant! Have fun with DH, Relax and know you will concieve! Cause belive me, you will! Watch for any other signs. A women on here told me that she was 5 weeks pregnant, And woke up one morning to find she was bleeding, and cramping somthing awful! She went to her docter, And he told her it was simply a period!!

She also said, that she had a period with her last child also!

So, I would diffently see your docter about this, realy since you've always been so regular.

I hope this has helped! Let me know how it goes!

P.S If you have any other Q's I'll be happy to help, Or reseach for you.

Angela,

You're so sweet, thank you so much. Well, I am assuming it is just AF that is playing tricks on me because of my nerves. If tomorrow nothing happens (AF does not continue) I will definately call a doctor just to be sure.

Thanks a lot.

GL to you too.
