Planning a Baby  Discussion Forum

Hi all,

First of all, thanks a lot to \";PR\"; and \";Sunshine\"; for their replies to my posting earlier and keeping my hopes up!
Had another query - Usually a week before my periods, I get the signs of it like water retention, bloating etc. The pain gets worse, and then disappears the day I get my periods. Now we have been trying to get pregnant - and I want to know if I might have conceived and would still get those signs? In the sense, we have tried in this month, and now my periods are due in 3-4 days time - I have started getting the signs and pains, but is it possible that I still might have conceived and my periods might not come at all?
P.S - I am 30 years old, and have regular periods.

Thanks a lot,
Manisha. Sunshine replied. Hi babes,
Good to see u happy and positive. :) I would say u can continue your gymming, except, when u ovulate, just slow down, don't do strenous exercises then, and immediately following that, so it's like for half a cycle, just work out like normal, and when u ovulate, either stop gymming or just go easy, don't strain.
I do go to the gym too. My doc has told me to continue. till she tells me to stop.
All the best.
Much love,

its great to hear that u r periods have got delayed by 2 or 3 days but if u still have the symptoms , then please please dont start dreaming..dear it pains a lot ..i mean generally symptions appearing might be delayed periods also..but i am praying god from core heart that u should be pregnant..dont worry and have faith in god.be positive of course..do please let me know..and if ur periods are delayed by more than 15 days immediately see u r gyno.ok bye sweetheart Sunshine replied. Many a times symptoms for both periods and pregnancy are similar. However, I would suggest that u don't get your hopes up. I don't mean that in a negative way my darling, all I'm saying is that I don't want to see you sad and disappointed. So I suggest that u relax, wait for about 10 days, if by then u don't get your period then got a test and subsequently a gynac.
Most important of all, please remember not to get stressed.
Much love,
