Anyone felt like AF was coming? - Page 2  

post #21 of 25
Many to you - I just had a m/c at almost 6 weeks right before this pg and I know the sense of dread any cramping can bring on - I am also on Prometrium this pg for my history of low progesterone for the 1st 10 weeks but my OB said anything over 10 for progesterone is good.

I wanted to also point out that in addition to the "normal" pulling and stretching type cramps that are common in early pregnancy basically right around where your pelvic bones jut out, I have also had a lot of cramping from gas in this pg - this can be in all sorts of different areas - including sort of where you might feel AF cramps - but they pass - I find that if I make sure I am drinking enough water and eating enough fiber to keep me regular (sorry if TMI) they pass a little easier - but it is not the intense cramping I had with my m/c which was more constant and brought on a total sense of dread - these gas pains are more come and go - not sure if that sounds like anything you are going through but I was just trying to reassure you and other mamas out there. Also, when I had my m/c as soon as I had period-like cramps I started spotting - a lot - which quickly turned from brown and gushy to bright red - every woman is different though...I hope you can get answers soon....

Thanks mamabella!

I took one progestrone pill and it made me very sick, the studies are so divided, so which is right we don't know, maybe it helps maybe it just prolongs stuff, often a m/c is for the right reasons as bad is it is for the person having it, I just try to remember if it is meant to be it will happen, KWIM?

I'll feel better if my HCG is still doubling, last time it double in 1.48 days!!
