I think this may be happening to me right now but I'm not sure. My son is 15 months old and still bfing 3-4 times a day. We use protection (condoms) but last week it broke. I felt pregnant super early last time, he is our third baby.. so I was only 3.5 weeks when I started having low cramping a little bit, lots of gas... etc.. Now, I think I might be but got a bfn this morning and wondering if it's too early. Or, are these same symptoms maybe just my period finally gearing up to arrive?? I have never gotten pregnant before while bfing, so I don't know if anybody thinks this may be the case here or what? I feel a little nervous about the whole situation. We weren't planning this but if it happens we'll be happy, just a little unprepared! I can't get it out of my head since this is the exact way I felt in the beginning with our little guy. I need to get off the computer for a couple days probably and test again Monday!

I guess I didn't write in the actual body of the post that I haven't had my period yet since our son was born but it's in the title so you probably figured that out.

No experience with this. I'd wait and test again soon.

thanks, i did a digital this morning and it was a no- but i'm still feeling funny so we'll see if AF is finally showing up or I have a dollar store test I will take Monday if I'm still feeling off. Might just be early.

I did!! I am pg with my 4th right now!! We were being careful (condoms) my hubby also got snipped. I got pg 4 days after he got snipped. I was nursing! I was nursing every 2 hrs all day and 3 times in the night. So it can happen.

I'm frustrated. Got a positive on a first response test Wednesday then negative yesterday on a first response. negative today on a $1 store test.. maybe it was a chemical pregnant, blighted ovum, who knows.. Getting on with life but just as I was wrapping my head around the surprise baby now my body pulls this. If I'm still feeling "pregnant" next week and still no positive or AF I'll call the dr.

That is frustrating! I would definitely call the doctor if you are still feeling the same way.
