(warning: Tmi) Cervix During Af? (hpt Pics Included)
Posted: 04-18-06 12:05pm

I know...It's kinda gross...But I had to
check.
I had very light bleeding sunday, medium
yesterday and very, very light again today
(there was very little and it was brown
and sticky on tampon when I got up ).
So...I checked my cervix and it's so high
I could barely reach it and it felt very
soft. I've never checked during af
before...But I know it's usually extremely
low and firm just before and after af.
Also...I usually have really severe cramps
(i have endo and the cramps can sometimes
bring me to tears) and I just realised
that I didn't even notice them yesterday.
Also...I've peed three times already and
i've only been awake for 2 hours! I
have other little "symptoms" too...But i'm
gonna wait and see what happens with this
"period". Maybe...Just maybe...There's
still hope this cycle??? Maybe it's
implantation??
Any opinions?

I have no idea, but your post made me
curious about something I think you might
be able to answer..
How do you check your cervix? And how is
it supposed to be?
Sorry for the ignorance, i'm 22, and
apparently I have no clue about my
reproductive organs :-p

You never said what cycle day you are on
or when your period should start.

If you're currently on your period theres
no way you would be experiencing pregnancy
symptoms. These might be symptoms of your
period. During your period, your
reproductive organs can swell causing your
uterus to sit a little on your bladder.
Which may be the reason why you're peeing
a lot more than normal.
The only thing I could suggest is for you
to take a pregnancy test when you stop
bleeding completely. If you don't get the
results you think you should, call your
.Dr and set up another urine and a blood
test to know for sure.
Let us know!!

well...I don't know for sure that what I
am experiencing is my "period". The
bleeding is less and the cramps are almost
non-existent and they have always been
severe. I would have been 13 dpo when the
bleeding started. There have been many
times when a woman has mistaken
implantation for her period. I also had a
dip in temps that day (maybe implantation
dip?). On top of that...Some women do
still have bleeding each month while
preggo. My mother did for several months
in all three of her pregnancies.
Anyway...Sorry for not giving more info.
If this is not my period...Then I am on cd
30 and 15 dpo today. I took a hpt two
hours ago and had a faint positive.
So...Maybe...I am preggo after all. I
will test again after the bleeding
stops.
Here are my symptoms so far from 1 dpo to
15 dpo:
-very emotional and crying for no reason
(several days). Very irritable and
impatient.
-sore bb's and sharp twinges in nipples
-odd feeling in the lower belly area (i
have no idea how to describe it...Except
that I notice it most when I breath
out...Almost like muscles tense or
contract)
-orgasm feels different (???)
-severe carpel tunnel and cramp all the
way up my arm for three days (not sure if
this is related...But it's very
annoying!!)
-weird dreams
-feeling flushed and like I am coming down
with a cold.
-cramps since 7 dpo
-very hungry/hollow feeling in the stomach
(even an hour after eating sometimes).
-headaches
-very tired
-bloated and gassy
-couple tiny spider veins appeared on bb's
at 10 dpo.
-temps haven't really dropped much this
time.
-heartburn (which I have never been prone
to get)
-nausea
here's my chart:
sorry this post was so long,
melanie :)

Faint Positive

If you got a faint positive, I would take
it as the real thing. My 1st 2 tests were
very faint. The determining line would
not have shown up if the hormone wasn't
detected.
Go to the .Dr to confirm this. Bring the
tests with you to show them.
Good .Luck!!
Sarah
p.S: are you trying to conceive?

lol!! I just wont allow myself to even
think that right now until I get a darker
line or confirmation from a blood test. I
went through this at the end of january
(when I first signed up here) and had two
faint positives and the doctor agreed I
was preggo during a pelvic exam. I was
soo excited!!! I had even told my closest
family members. When the blood test came
back...It was negative. I was sooo
devastated. It took quite some time to
get over it. The only thing I can think
of is that I miscarried or had a chemical
pregnancy...Although this was never
confirmed by a doctor. I guess there's
always a part of me that thinks that maybe
the faint positives were evap lines...You
know? I just kept doubting myself. I
know I had many, many symptoms...But it's
just one of those things that i'll never
know for sure. So...I hope this line gets
darker!!

i chart my cervical position, cervical
fluid and basal body temperature. They
are all great ways to track ovulation and
to know if you've achieved pregnancy. I
have been charting since february. I have
been ttc since december. Usually...Your
cervix is low and hard before, during and
after your period. Once ovulation
approaches...Your cervix becomes soft and
rises up and opens to release the egg. I
wondered about my cervix being high and
soft...Because this usually happens when
pregnancy is achieved (the cervix will
rotate upward to protect the baby from
infection and harm). This can happen at
different times for different women.
The bleeding has become very light
pink/brown spotting (only when wiping) and
cervix is still almost unreachable.
Here's to hopin' that I am!!! I've been
disappointed before...And don't want to go
through that again. :(
i'll keep you ladies posted.
Melanie

Here's a couple pics of the faint line.
It was hard to photograph...It's a lot
easier to see in person. I had waited 4
minutes and seen nothing...So I got tired
of waiting...And set a timer. I came back
in at 9 minutes and seen this:

Yeah...They say it can take up to 10
minutes to get your result...Anything that
appears after that...Is to be disregarded.
It's a test I bought at wal-mart...No
name kind called "one step pregnancy test"
and it can be used up to 4 days before
your expected period.

So is this the kind where you'd get the
vertical line to confirm that you peed on
it and the horizontal line to confirm a
pregnancy??
Or...Is it the kind where the one to the
left is a plus or a minus?? If it's
anything like the one I had, a line would
show up if it detected the hormone...And
if there was nothing, the box on the left
would remain empty.
I would feel the same way if I were in
your prediciment...I wouldn't count my
chickens until they hatch...Ya know what
i'm saying. It's just too similar to your
last experience. Go get another test and
see what it says...Get a different brand.
If it comes back positive...Than call your
ob.Gyn asap!! Like I said...Mine were
very faint...I waited a week and took 2
more and they were darker!
Good .Luck!!
