Hi ladies, thought I would tell you of one symptom that I get 3/4 before AF that always means I am pregnant!
It never fails!!!

TMI alert
If I orgasm, It will damn well hurt! (for about 2/3 mins)

I asked my doctor years ago about this, when pregnant with my first and she had never heard of it, but I get it all throughout my pregnancy! I have since read other women with the same experience through the wonder of the net!

Anyone else ever have this???

@ joe- welcome! How long did it take you to conceive your first?

@catchwin- hello hello! Not sure about orgasm but my cervix would kill me during sex.

AFM- temp spike this morning. Praying it keeps climbing!

Tara - yay spike!

Catchwin - I never hurt vaginally or cervically with sex while pregnant. Sex felt much, much better for me due to the increased blood flow to my nether regions. I did have a lot of breast pain with my first, but it wasn't as bad with subsequent pregnancies. All breast changes were less noticeable with babies2 & 3. Oral sex was tricky, though, because I was nauseous all the time.

I guess Tara and I are cycle buddies, my temp spiked too..hoping mine climbs also.

Right ladies I really need your honest reply to my question, otherwise I am going to go CRAZY!!!!!!!

I am 7dpo on my first month of ttc.

Symptoms so far from 0dpo, dull cramping pains on and off, more when I am resting, Bloating and headaches and the round ligament pain when I cough or sneeze. Yesterday while walking to my doctors for my progesterone blood tests, my breasts hurt with every step, enough for me to have to hold them with my arm! This morning at 6am I was woken by a huge spike of pain in my uterus. Then this afternoon I have a tiny and I mean tiny bit of spotting.

Please tell me I'm not cracking up!

@catchwin- You are not crazy honey! It all depends on what dpo you are. When you OV, you have a dramatic increase in progesterone. Progesterone can cause almost the exact symptoms of pregnancy. You usually wont start feeling real pregnancy symptoms until at least 6dpo cause the egg has to implant first. The sharp pain could be implantation and the spotting could be implantation bleeding. Since you had the progesterone test, I guess you're about 8dpo. So if your symptoms keep up, it's a good sign!

@phat- Love ya babe!

Decided to start preparing for rain, so dh and I went to a city wide garage sale on the hunt for baby stuff!!! Got a couple cute outfits that would be good for any gender. Got some toys too. Most of the furniture was outdated and I knew was recalled. But it was exciting! I would have bought TONS more clothes but I'll do that in the future when we know what gender(s) God will give us!

Tara - love you, too! One thing about recalled items - you can usually return them to any store that sold them for a refund if the manufacturer doesn't have a fix for the recall. I did that at Target with a drop-side crib I knew was recalled. I got it from a thrift store for $40 and got $200 in store credit.

Af is sup to show her ugly face today, no sign of her yet so ill test tomorrow. Wish me luck!! She is probably showing up late to be a big B... and to play tricks. Ugh and to everyone

Thanks Joe! Welcome to the forum :)

I think I did have some cervix pain during sex in the early week's but I couldn't say now. Poor dh isn't getting any since I've been sick! I tell him he's had his fair share lol

I went to Lowe's to have some window shades cut, and the girl was so sweet. Then we were talking & she told me they're getting ready to put her back on the register, and said she didn't want to, but the doc was ordering it. She's pregnant, and it's high risk due to 3 prior miscarriages, so they don't want her lifting anything. So we talked a little, and I find out she had one baby girl, but she died at 2 months because she was really sick. This lady looked like she was in her early 20's. Then she told me her last miscarriage was in January & in Feb her sis who already has 2 kids told her she was pregnant again. The baby is due soon. My heart just broke for her, but I didn't show it, tried to stay positive & wished her the best. I so hope this prey works for her!
