Sorry if I offended, just had a question

betwise · July 2015

I offended someone with an earlier post and unfortunately can't delete it so I just edited the whole thing out. Being an infertile woman I would never want to offend someone who has the same problems as me.

Implantation cramping is actually incredibly rare, but we really discourage symptom spotting at all on this forum. It will drive you crazy. Not to mention you're on an infertility board, so the majority of these women have never been pregnant and this is a rather insensitive post. I'm sure you didn't mean anything by it, but another board would be more appropriate (though again as a whole these forums don't like symptom spotting).

To answer your question, unless you ovulate very early that is almost certainly not what you are experiencing. With my successful pregnancy I had no implantation cramping at all - most women don't

Best of luck on your journey and good luck with your RE!

I have infertility so I assumed this was the place to go. No insensitivity intended as I know some have been pregnant before bc I've seen post that they have been including you admitting you have been. Thanks for the info. I will now delete the post if possible. I would never as an infertile woman want to offend anyone.

I got implantation cramping it came when I was supposed to get my period and that's what it felt like but my period never came. Unfortunately I miscarried at 7 weeks. I agree. Symptom spotting will drive you crazy. No point.

@jnissa Pray tell, who is we? This isn't baby center first of all. I'm offended that you feel you can police the board and tell other users what they can and cannot post. This is an infertility board and we are all here to help each other. Not scare someone away and make them feel like they need to apologize for asking a question. You're the one that is insenstive in my opinion. This is the internet, and unless a post is against the bump TOU, then anyone can post whatever they want and if you can't handle it that is no ones problem but yours.

@betwise this IS the place for you. Please post whatever you want whenever you want. To answer your question I DID have implantation cramps as well as another regular girl on here that I am friends with. Were both currently pregnant. It did feel different than period cramps though. It was like dull cramping and not sharp painful cramps. Like period cramps felt kind of raw to me and fleshy if that makes sense lol. Good luck to you and please come back whenever you want!!!!!!!

Thank you so much. This was a very thoughtful post bc I did feel very bullied and felt like from reading other post that I could ask that question. I feel very turned off by the response I received so I'm not sure I will be back. I have too much stress in my life to be talked to rudely on here that creates added stress! You are very sweet and your post was very helpful and I understood it completely. Thanks again!

The bump no longer tolerates abuse of any sort. Many people have been banned from posting on this forum for causing troubles. Those that bully really aren't here for very long nowadays. It's been slow for a little while but it's picking back up and it's a very friendly place. That's why I am here and not any other forum. Feeling attacked is honestly the LAST thing someone needs when they are dealing with infertility. It's sad that another person experiencing the same thing wouldn't understand that people on the same journey just need a kind word. We are all sisters striving for the same thing. There are tactful ways to express your opinion, Being attacked in a place where you are suppose to be getting support is enough to push someone over the edge and it sickens me that you were made to feel that way. Most people on here are very nice and helpful and have a lot of valuable information. Please don't leave. Lots of ladies have implantation cramping they just think their period is coming and it doesn't. Please keep us updated on what happens with you. I'll be back to read of your BFP @betwise . Hugs xxxxxxxx
