M/C Cycle Post-O...Body Mimicking Pg Symptoms?

pepper73 · #1 March 14th, 2011, 03:17 PM

Hi ladies,

This might sound nuts but since this is my first loss, I'm still trying to figure things out. I am 4 DPO after my m/c almost a month ago. What I find strange, is that I am experiencing "symptoms" that are not normal for me but that I had when I was pg (minor cramps/pulling, heartburn, skin break-out). I especially never have heartburn...ever...but I had it bad when I was pg and I've had it bad all day today. I know that if I were pg again, there's no way I'd have pg symptoms this early and since BF & I weren't actively TTC this cycle the chances of pg are next to nothing anyway. We did BD on O day but he pulled out for the most part (a little late but I can't imagine many swimmers were "granted access")...sorry for TMI. What I am wondering is, since it hasn't been that long since I was pg, do you think my body is automatically mimicking those symptoms? Like it's remembering what happened last time after O? Has anyone else experienced this right after a loss? I hope this makes sense.

Thank you for any input you may have!

My m/c was on 2/19 and I think I ovulated in the last 5 days or so. I am currently feeling nauseous (just a tad) and cramping some. I don't think I am pregnant though! That is all I got though...I am not really sure :/

My cycles were just permanently different after our loss. Mine was very early. I found out I was pg, then a week later, miscarried. One thing I never used to get before the loss was sore boobs. Now my boobs start hurting about 9-10 dpo. I can't say I've ever had heartburn.

My cycles have also been altered from my losses. Most cycles I have pg symptoms after I O.

The progesterone generated during ovulation can cause pregnancy like symptoms.

and it is different for everybody.....i went literally crazy this month (first month after early m/c) because i got symptoms so early (3-4 dpo). I've actually decided it's not progesterone but a mean evil trick that someone higher up likes to play on women.

LOL! I like that theory!!

It's so interesting to see how much our bodies can really be affected! I always get the sore breasts about 7 DPO that I knew was caused by progesterone but now these new "symptoms" had me all confused. I guess I'll stock up on tums!

Thanks everyone!

Yeah it sucks because it's honestly hard to know if they are real pregnancy symptoms or just our bodies out of whack.
