What a crazy week it's been! I'm relieved that hopefully the end is nigh. I need a break! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2520595 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 20:19:26 +0000 WifeMama24 2520595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Aalismom it could be late implantation bleeding, esp since you got a positive this morning. Some people bleed more than others and I've heard implantation bleeding can sometimes be painful. Wishing you the best and keep us updated ☺ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2520580 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 19:34:49 +0000 AalisMom 2520580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@madger: a lot longer? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2520579 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 19:33:08 +0000 AalisMom 2520579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FaithFertility: Thank you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2520578 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 19:32:51 +0000 AalisMom 2520578@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: I'm sorry for your losses:( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2520577 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 19:30:17 +0000 FaithFertility 2520577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AalisMom: So sorry :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2520576 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 19:29:20 +0000 AalisMom 2520576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: I'm pretty sure I O'd right on time based on the O pain I get each month and ewcm, but since I'm not temping or using opk's there is room for error. I got a faint positive on 12dpo at 2:30am, a lighter positive at 2:30pm the same day around when the cramps were really bad, but this morning (14dpo) I got the strongest positive yet! I'm not sure why that would be? Also my period never comes this early- it's always a 28-30 day cycle, and honestly these cramps are FARmore painful than AF cramps ever are for me. The bleeding is still like a light period- I'm only wearing liners- and the minor clotting stopped after the first day of flow (Thursday), but the cramps, although much less painful today, still continue. They feel different. My belly is sore and feels bruised. Oh and I did get a lot of ewcm like discharge early morning when I got up to pee. So yeah- it's all very confusing and I'm going to get a blood test on Monday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2520553 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 17:08:58 +0000 simplyfelicity 2520553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AalisMom: I would count this bleeding as your period since it essentially is. Are you sure you didn't ovulate early? With my chemical, I got a :bfp: at 10 do but, by 14 dpo, the tests went back to negative and AF was here the next day. I didn't have any moreviews bleeding than that. My next cycle was super weird (it was about 38) days and I never confirmed ovulation. The cycle after that, I ovulated a bit earlier than normal (12 or 13 dpo) and got pregnant that cycle. Unfortunately, I lost that one, too at 11 weeks. I hope you get some answers soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2520390 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 10:13:21 +0000 AalisMom 2520390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sorry Madger :/</p> <p>Ladies, when your CP was ending, did it go out with dark brown spotting? My period isn't due until tomorrow - I keep hoping I won't start bleeding all over again just as its tapering off! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2520294 Sat, 09 Apr 2016 04:30:18 +0000 madger 2520294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm currently in the cycle after a CP and it has been longer than normal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2520261 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 21:56:04 +0000 AalisMom 2520261@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My bleeding is how a light period is for me and the clots have stopped but the cramps are ridiculous. I'm walking hunched over because my belly is so sore and feels raw. Let's see what tomorrow brings.<br /> Thank you again ladies! I'm so grateful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2520258 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 21:46:11 +0000 catomd00 2520258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AalisMom: yep the cramps with my CP were intense - I don't get bad AF cramps. These were very much like contractions with the pain wrapping around my back. Mine came a day after I expected my period but just was heavier (and way clottier) and lasted a few extra days. I got my period like normal the next month, but even then it was still a little heavier and clottier. The next cycle after was back to typical light periods. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2520173 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 19:32:59 +0000 catlady 2520173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AalisMom: If this is indeed a chemical, this bleeding would basically be the start of your period. Mine was a couple days late so I just counted it as my period. It was a worse and longer than usual but otherwise not that different. Hugs, sorry you are going through this. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2520161 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 19:12:35 +0000 AalisMom 2520161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok, so at least things will hopefully go back to normal for me too! I guess the best part of all of this is its made me realize that I absolutely want another baby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519960 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 14:36:18 +0000 deerylou 2519960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AalisMom: I'd compare my CP to a relatively horrendous period that occurred a week after my expected AF and followed a faintly positive test. I ovulated the next month, and my cycle essentially just reset by a week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519938 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 14:11:29 +0000 WifeMama24 2519938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@aalismom I still got my period when it was supposed to come and I dont know if I ovulated the next cycle because I didnt use opks yet but I did have the feelings of ovulation </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519930 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 14:04:42 +0000 AalisMom 2519930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jh524 I think not :/ the cramps are really painful. It's almost like after my C section- that bruised and sore feeling like you've been beaten up? My BFP this morning was also much fainter than the BFP from yesterday afternoon which was light to begin with.</p> <p>To the ladies who've had this- will I still go on to get a period on the 10th in addition to this bleeding? Or should I just count this as my next period? Did you ovulate like normal the next cycle? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519902 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 13:35:43 +0000 jh524 2519902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AalisMom: maybe it's implanting and your just bleeding and cramping from it. Just re test and try not to stress. Good luck :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519886 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 13:19:47 +0000 simplyfelicity 2519886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so sorry. My chemical was similar. I remember it being much more "clotty" than a normal AF. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519803 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 12:36:46 +0000 winniebee 2519803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It does sound like a CP. I have had several. A few of them were very, very painful. Hugs :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519798 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 12:35:18 +0000 AalisMom 2519798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>:(<br /> Thanks ladies. I appreciate your thoughts and sharing your experiences. Everywhere else I've read no one ever mentions how painful it is! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519771 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 12:18:58 +0000 WifeMama24 2519771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went through the same thing with my CP, it was painful to the point where I couldnt even walk, I bled in between my periods and I didnt know what was going on since it was the first month of ttc, it hurts to lose a baby no matter how far along you are, sending you comfort and letting you know that everything will be alright </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519767 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 12:12:57 +0000 deerylou 2519767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This sounds very much like the CP I experienced a few months ago. The cramping was shockingly painful and just felt "different" than a normal period. I understand how upsetting it can be, despite it being such an early turn of events. Sending you comfort. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519756 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 12:04:43 +0000 catomd00 2519756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds like a CP :( wishing for the best though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519725 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 11:34:27 +0000 Anonymous 2519725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had to go make a new username/password because I couldn't log in with my old one and password recovery is broken too.</p> <p>Anyhow, thank you for your wishes and positivity! I didn't really think it would hurt so much this early or that I'd be so emotional. Like you, Cat Lady, I've only been pregnant a day but in my mind I jumped ahead several months :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519612 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 10:10:05 +0000 psw27 2519612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No advice, just positive thoughts! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519588 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 09:55:22 +0000 catlady 2519588@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My chemical a few months back was similar. The cramps were surprisingly bad (as were my emotions about it...I was "pregnant" for only one day but it still really hurt). All you can really do is wait a few more days and see. Sorry you are going through this. Hope it ends up working out for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519584 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 09:53:46 +0000 madger 2519584@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That sounds a lot like my CP experience (definitely the worst "period" cramps I've ever had), but I've also heard similar things happen with positive results! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleeding-and-cramping-at-13dpo#post-2519563 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 09:37:18 +0000 AalisMom 2519563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hello ladies. I'm so disheartened this morning. On Monday at 8dpo, I had AF type cramps. I had them before I got my BFP with DS so I knew something was up. On Tuesday, I got a little bit of red tinged CM when I wiped and thought it was implantation bleeding. On Wednesday and Thursday the bleeding picked up and I thought AF was here early but it was on and off. When it stopped entirely around noon yesterday at 12dpo, I took a test and got a faint BFP. But then by last night, the cramps intensified and now the bleeding is like a light period. I didn't have cramps all night but am having them now. I tested but the line is fainter than yesterdays. Sigh. </p> <p>I just thought I'd ask if anyone has had any experience with this kind of thing? Is it a chemical pregnancy? At 4 weeks is it usually this painful? The cramps were as bad as the worst period cramps yesterday but better today but they wrap around to my back too. I also feel like someone is applying pressure and squeezing me gently but firmly from the inside. Oh and I've had clots ranging from very tiny to pea sized. We weren't really TTC but it was a really lovely surprise and now I'm really, really sad :(</p> <p>Could any of you ladies please share your CP experiences? Or did you have anything like a light period and cramping and go on to have a successful pregnancy? </p>
