Cramping, but lots of mucus-can I be pregnant?

Question

The husband and I have been TTC for a few months now. He thinks this time is it. My cycle is about 32 to 33 days long. We used ovulation predictor tests so I would have ovulated between 10-11 days ago. Within 4 days of ovulation, my b*****s began to hurt. I have never had sore b*****s before, even before a period, my entire life. Except for last month they hurt 4 days before my period (I'm assuming my cycle and PMS symptoms are changing) Now, my b*****s have gotten a small shade darker, there are rings around them, and little white bumps. I have backaches, am tired, my period is due in 2 or 3 days and I have a lot of white mucus that looks almost like sperm after ejaculation. But I did start having minor cramps this morning, off and on. I took an early pregnancy test that detects 20miu, but came back negative. Other symptoms include being tired, eating a lot more than usual, and some of my favorite foods make me want to gag.

When should I test again? Am I just crazy? Has anyone had similar symptoms? Can you have a lot of cervical mucus before your period?

Answer 1

Well im going through the SAME thing, i should start my period eather today or in the morning, and all day today when i wipe its clear stuff and then i got a glob of something whiteish i dunno weird things but my BACK is killing me and i am crampy sooooo i dunno i prob just have a UTI lol but best luck i hope u are, sometimes the hubbys are right.

Answer 2

an accurate result will show 12 days after ovulation, i'd try a couple of days from now too, and if negative and no period, try talking to your doctor about a blood test....

Answer 3

I had a lot of cramping about a week before my period was due. It was so intense it woke me up while I was sleeping. It lasted for about 3 days. I am now almost 7 weeks pregnant. The symptoms you are having do sound like pregnancy symptoms, but I wouldn't go by that. I would wait until you miss your period and take another test. Also, I did have a lot of mucus and still have some! Good luck!!!
