Did anyone else feel like they were going to start their period when they were pregnant?

Thread Starter 

So, I wasn't quite sure where to post this but seeing as how we were going to try officially in April of 2012 and I have a one year old I figured this was appropriate :)

 

I had my period about 2 weeks ago and my husband and I don't use condoms when I am if ya get what I'm sayin :P. We have never had an issue with doing that but this time I pretty much stopped bleeding the next few days, safe to say my period was shorter that time maybe? 

 

Anyway, it's 2 weeks later and after 2 weeks of being mentally and physically exhausted (which I attributed to cosleeping with a one year old getting his molars) my eyes have been abnormally dry, I have a skin tab (which I had when I was pregnant before), I have tiny red bumps on my nipples and the last 2 days I have felt like my period was coming (cramping, lower back and hip aches). I have also had 2 instances in the last few days where I started crying for no real reason. I remember feeling like I was gonna start  my period when I was pregnant with my son but we weren't ready to start trying to I'm just trying to figure out what's going on. I can't really test yet but what do all of you think, do these look like pregnancy symptoms?

Two separate times I've been convinced that I'm just about to get my period, but have actually been pregnant.

Interesting milk! I have struggled to gain weight for MONTHS, my son just sucks me dry and I can't eat enough. So I have had a hard time getting over 96 pounds but I weighed myself just now and I'm 100 pounds.....which is like an alarm going off. Either way I am happy to gain weight but every day it's looking more and more like pregnancy. This may sound weird even if I am only 2 weeks along (IF I am pregnant) but I feel it, now I get it when people say they feel pregnant. And if I'm not than maybe I'm just crazy! heh :P

The first time I was pregnant, I had really bad cramps around when I expected my period. I remember sitting on the couch and telling DH "I wish my period would just start already so I feel better soon!"

 

As it turns out, I was pregnant. Good luck to you!

Yup - with every one of my pregnancies I have always felt like I was getting my period.  The only difference for me was that my breasts were very tender/sore...otherwise it felt the same as a period.  Good luck to you!

I just recently got a BPF and I definitely had some AF symptoms--low backache, pelvic ache and nipple soreness. :)
