Implantation cramps?

[ilovemybabies]

Hi! I am new to these boards. I was just wondering if there is such thing as cramps at the time of implantation. I know there are ovulation cramps, because I get them each month at the middle of my cycle. I have already ovulated and don't expect my period until November 20th or 21st. I am experiencing light cramping on and off that feel similar to my ovulation cramps. The light cramps just began today.

Could they be implantation cramps? Could I be pregnant?

Yes, they could very well be. I never got any, but my Dr constantly asked me during my first apts if I had any cramping or spotting. I think that when the egg attaches, you can feel some cramping.

My husband and I are trying to get pregnant and I am due for my period on the 20th of November too, but all last week I felt cramping in the early morning hours. I am wondering too if that might be due to implantation. If so, how happy we would be!!!

I just found out that I am pregnant and definitely felt the ovulation cramps, then about a week later I felt what I am guessing are implantation cramps for a whole day and a half. I did not feel so fantastic!

Congradulations, vwgirl! I also experienced some cramping about a week and a half after my ovulation cramps (which I ALWAYS feel). Some pregnancies I noticed them more than others, I guess because I thought they were early PMS cramps at first.

I am wondering right now, too. I took a test this morning, but I am not supposed to start for at least three more days...This afternoon I am so nauseous and I have been burning up all day! Like serious hot flashes. Whether I am pregnant or not, I really have no idea, but something hormonal is going on!

Okay, I just started! yay! I am not ready to be pregnant yet. I want one more, but I just weaned my almost twenty month old son, he's number four. So I would like more time to not rush his infancy and lose some weight! Whew!

I am new on here,
and am trying to conceive. I just got off birth control a month ago, and have had light cramping with light brown spotting/pink spotting that lasted for a day, then nothing, then a few days later have same thing. i have just worn a panty liner today, but not much spotting on it. I was supposed to start my period 5 days ago, but don't want to get my hopes up taking a pregnancy test yet. Should I test for pregnancy? Or is this even normal?

Excitedsarah,If I were you I would go get a test!If your 5 days late it's not to early to test..I have always tested 5 days after.I would say there's a good chance your pregnant but it could also be from the horomones of trying to get pregnant or being off b/c and your body is still adjusting.When We decided to get pregnant this time my body and cycle went outta whack and The Dr. said the horomones can do that to a women!So these things are normal
Good luck!

Thanks for your help.
Today I have a heavier red bleeding but isn't flowing alot, know that i had brown /pink spotting about 1 week ago, and now have red blood
I want to be pregnant, but don't know if I am. I just got off birth control pills since Oct. 26, and don't know if this fluctuation is from being off B/c, or what.
I just feel different, have a hard abdomen that feels very bloated.
I haven't felt nauseous yet, my breasts are more sore than I ever remember with my period. I have slight cramping too.
I don't know if this was a miscarriage, or if I am even pregnant at all.
