Big TMI question! WAY TMI...

Okay...I'm trying to keep my hopes up here...but if you guys think I'm probably out...please tell me!

This was the strangest thing...during the very early morning hours my DH and I did some "just for fun" BDing. (Around 1 a.m.) Well...before the actual BD, I had the other more fun "O" (blush) and immediately after had VERY painful cramping, like AF, for a minute or so. Enough that I said "ouch" out loud... It went away. So...DH and I started to BD...and I had to stop almost immediately because the cramping came right back. I went to the bathroom, and was spotting. (Yes...I lost it and cried because I'm totally sick of going around in this circle of waiting for yet another month).

DH was very sweet...he said he wondered if it could really be AF, because my temps had still been up pretty high...and I should wait to be upset until my temps drop or I'm bleeding heavily. We went back to bed...and I've had no more cramping since the BD.

My temp did drop some when I woke up this morning, but it is still way above the coverline. And Spot is still here...a light pinkish brown on toilet paper only.

Could this be implantation? Could BDing during implantation make cramps more severe? I've never heard of that. But, I've NEVER experienced severe AF cramps caused by BDing before. What do you guys think?

I'm really trying not to cry here. This is such an emotional rollercoaster. It seems especially hard to have gone through side effects of Clomid this cycle for nothing...and I dread starting Clomid again. But I will...

Someone give me opinions, please...

Here is my chart:

I am from the December board and I saw alot of posts from women who had painful orgasms and bleeding after sex. From the info I gathered there I will try to explain what "could" have happened if you are indeed pregnant. When your body recognizes you are pregnant your uterus immediately begins to grow. When you have an orgasm it causes your external genitals as well as your uterus to contract (not a bad contraction like the one that would cause labor or a miscarriage, just your bodies reaction). Well your uterus having grown a little could have caused the orgasm to become a cramp. If you are pregnant then your uterus and cervix are getting a larger blood supply which can cause swollen blood vessels on your cervix. Those vessel can become irritated or even bleed on contact, so the bleeding could have easily been a result of internal stimulation or sex. After reading alot of women (probably a third of our board) experiencing this I am pretty sure it is common in early pregnancy. GL & HTH

Tasha,

Thanks SO much for that info! I'm SO hoping that that is what caused the cramping and bleeding last night! You've given me more hope for this cycle. :)

I'm still going to try not to get my hopes TOO high...as I just don't want to be disappointed even worse. So I'm just going to try to relax and have a good weekend, and then maybe test again on Monday!

Thanks!

Anne

Oh...and congrats on your pregnancy!
