Hey girls,

Just after a bit of advice here,we are ttc # 3 and have been bf ds as well.

It has been a hard 6 months as i haven't had any luck with falling pregnant,although now i think i may be :confused:

I am 14dpo and for the last week i have been getting period type pains,i never really thought much of it i though i was either o'ing or getting af because i didn't want to look to much into it because i have been let down so many time.

But now in the last couple of days i have been getting that strechy cramp feeling when i move all of a sudden.I had this when pregnant with dd and ds but never when i wasn't pregnant.

What im trying to get to is,can you get the stretchy feeling even when your not pregnant?

I have a few other symptoms but they are the two main ones!:o

Hey Heaven Sent if you only get this when your pregnant and you have never got this feeling when not pregnant. i would have to say i think your up the duff. All the other signs you have been having sound very promising

well i really hope you are! good luck :babydust2::babydust2: how many more days before testing

I may test on Thursday when im due for af but if i am up the duff i don't expect to get a bfp for another 2.5 weeks.

They take ages to show up for me!!

Hello, I get this feeling at times unrelated to pregnancy.

Hope you are UTD though. :fingerscrossed::babydust2:

Is it like a muscle pulling feeling?

Im starting to get it now for nothing even when i breath out and my tummy moves.

Along with af cramps maybe im just getting af?I hope not :no:

This is what im getting

It says it starts in the second tri,but maybe its cause ive already had 2 babies?

What is round ligament pain?
Round ligament pain generally refers to a brief, sharp, stabbing pain or a longer-lasting dull ache that pregnant women commonly feel in the lower abdomen or groin, starting in the second trimester.

You may feel round ligament pain as a short jabbing sensation if you suddenly change position, such as when you're getting out of bed or out of a chair or when you cough, roll over in bed, or get out of the bathtub. You may feel it as a dull ache after a particularly active day — when you've been walking a lot or doing some other physical activity.

The round ligaments surround your uterus in your pelvis. As your uterus grows during pregnancy, the ligaments stretch and thicken to accommodate and support it. These changes can occasionally cause pain on one or both sides of your abdomen.

You may feel the pain starting from deep inside your groin, moving upward and outward on either side to the top of your hips. The pain is internal, but if you were to trace it on your skin, it would follow the bikini line on a very high-cut bathing suit.

found this too

Some women are concerned because they don't have round ligament pain, or they don't seem to suffer from it as much as other women. Not every woman will experience a large amount of pain. Generally, in a first pregnancy, the pain won't start as early or be as severe as it is in a woman's second, third and subsequent pregnancies. This is normal and to be expected.

Hi I remember getting that on my second and third baby. and in the very early days too

I am BF now near the end though down to one may be two feeds a day

But i have noticed a couple of days before af is due i get it one or twice in the day

This month i got it nearly straight after ovulating which is a little strange but there might be a chance this month im pregnant. like you im afraid to get hope up i hate the let down plus if i was to test it will be Christmas day.

i just hope with the reduction in feeding my body will do its thing:yes:.

good luck and i hope you have good news soon
