Input, please! (re-post)

Hi guys, I'm new here (although I'm a long time stalker of the site). Strange things have been going on the past two weeks, & I've finally broken down made an account; so here I am!

My husband and I are trying to conceive our first. We've been married for almost 6 months now.
I do need to add that this is my 2nd marriage, and I was not able to get pregnant with my previous, (thank god). BUT I have had everything checked, and the Dr's say I'm good to go.

I know it's not easy for me to get pregnant, and I've been through the depression, and hurt, and anger, and the pregnancy test phobia....
I'm hoping a support system will help get through the 2ww easier.

Anywho, the reason I'm even typing this right now is because I really need some input! And this is why:

4dpo - Cramps allllll day. Not on either side; directly in the center and deep in my uterus.
(This is way too early for me to start cramping. I normally start the cramping the night before, and the morning of day 28 I've started.)
5 dpo - Cramps off and on throughout the day. I had some pictures done this day in a park & I kept having to sit down because if I stood/walked too long the cramps would start.
(I'm very active, so this was strange & just pissed me off a little).
6 dpo - I felt fine until I got to the gym and started to do a lunge. I got a cramp so bad that it almost brought me down to my knees. But it was the only one. I finished my workout & didn't cramp for the rest of the day, at all.
7 dpo - Craving sweets; could be normal for me about this time, even though I don't eat alot of junk food. What was NOT normal about this day is the fact that when I was throwing my white's into the wash, I noticed a stain on the inside of my white sports bra. I have two light brown/tan stains in the cups, where my nipples would be. This is what has me freaking out so bad, aside from the very early, odd cramping.
If anyone can tell me why I would have any nipple discharge, please. This has NEVER happened in my life.
8-11 dpo - Craving milk. Ice cold milk. (I hate milk, and I'm lactose intolerant). Mild cramping, not near as bad as before. & also in my lower back.
My breasts begin to hurt during ovulation, so thats normal for me.
I'm due to start AF on Wednesday.

Thanks guys, for any help!

Hi and welcome. Congratulations on your marriage! I am sorry I do not know anything about the nipple discharge. Have you taken a pregnancy test? I suggest taking one.

HI and welcome

Those can be good signs (never heard the nipple discharge one though), I would take a test!
About the discharge, I would check with your doctor. It doesn't really sound normal. The only thing I could think that would cause that would be an abnormally high level of prolactin which wouldn't be good for TTC because it can keep you from ovulating. But if you have regular periods that likely isn't the cause. I would ask the doc about that, and in the meantime, take a test

Thanks guys! & thanks Cait.
I was going to wait to see if I started before testing. I started spotting yesterday, & now it's full blown. It is strange though; I'm STILL cramping, my boobs are still killing me, and TMI, there are grey(?) stringy and chunky things. Sorry :/
I just got off the phone with my Dr.s office and they can't see me until next month. That sucks so bad because I'm really scared. I have all kinds of things going through my head.

So did you start your period? Is the nipple discharge grey and stringy? If you are stillohaving nipple discharge I think that you should try to go to your regular doctor or see someone.

No, no. Sorry for the confusion. There was grey stringy/fleshy pieces in my blood this morning. I think it's a chemical pregnancy. The nipple issue only happened that one day; I've been keeping an eye on it. Scared as hell about that. This has just been the strangest cycle thus far.
