This month I tried the test again and It showed up that I was again, but what's happening is about 3 to 4 days after I had breakthrough bleeding last month that lasted about 4 days, then when it was time for my period at the end of the month I went on and had it anyway. I don't understand whats going on or if we are going to have trouble getting pregnant again. This month the breakthrough bleeding has not started yet,but its now the time that it showed up I was ovulating and I am having some slight cramping , is that normal around ovulation? Help |
You can definitely cramp around the time you ovulate. This is very common.
I've had 3 miscarriages, and I know how stressful it can become if you are trying to conceive. While this is difficult, please try to be as calm as possible! There are a number of very safe herbal teas that you can take to help to stay calm; valerian is quite good (and helps your adrenal glands) and you can mix it with passionflower at night to help you get a good rest.
If you are willing to try Bach Flower remedies, you can also take these even while pregnant and breastfeeding. They are completely safe and non-toxic. If you are anxious, try Aspen. For your fears of miscarriage, you can also add Mimulus. All you do is add a couple of drops of each remedy into a glass of water and sip it frequently. You can also take a couple of drops directly on your tongue with the dropper if you are in a pinch. The Bach Flower remedies are a homeopathic remedy and they don't work like drugs, which is why they are non-toxic and safe.
I wish you a happy outcome soon!
