Good morning ladies. I'm currently cd20 dpo7 (average 27 day cycle). My chart, I think, looks pretty good so far, but last night I felt a couple brief stabbing pains right in the middle of the lower part of my abdomon. I normally wouldn't think anything about it, but that's what I felt right before I m/c last month. I felt the pain, then, the next morning, woke up to blood. Last night I felt the pain a couple of times. It's real brief and feels like someone is stabbing me (but not unbearibly painful). It's located really low (I had a c-section with ds and it's right where the scar is - that low). Now I realize I'm only 7dpo and chances are, that if I am pregnant, I would have just implanted, but still, it was exactly the same thing I felt before my m/c (8/29). Wouldn't it be too early to feel anything? Am I just freaking out? I've been pretty calm with this try because there is a possibilty we didn't catch the egg in time so I've been trying to be very realistic. I don't think I'm reading into things. But, last night, when I felt that, I started freaking out. Anyone have any encouraging words? Do I just have m/c on my mind since I just went though one last month?

I really don't know about m/c but I think its too early for that. Your chart definitely shows ovulation, and at 7DPO, you could be feeling some cramping related to implantation or just natural cramping. I really don't know. If you are really concerns or the pain is bad, I would call the doc to be sure. They may check you out and make sure there isn't something else going on. Good Luck!

I cannot relate to your situation but I can see why you'd be freaking out.

Even if you are feeling things from a pregnancy this early on no bleeding is a good sign. Take it in stride if it continues I would definately see your OBG.

Could you possibly have an ovarian cyst? They would cause that type of pain. I too have a c-sect incision from a Myomectomy it took years before I stopped feeling weird things at the incision area. Between adhesions & scar tissue build up over time - it must have been 5 years before I felt nothing in that area.

Hang in there.....

Hey Susan, I know after having a m/c your going to try and associate every twinge & pain with it. Try not to stress yourself out with all these things running through your mind. If it continues or if you need answers call your OB and maybe they can shed some light on the situation and clear your mind. Maybe they can tell what that feeling is associated with. Good luck Susan and I'll be thinking about you.
