I just would love to know anyone’s experiences with pregnancy and what early symptoms you had?
It’s so hard for us to tell if it’s Endo symptoms or pregnancy compared to other people who don’t experience cramping, spotting, nausea etc on the regular anyway.
I’m experiencing pain AFTER ovulation which is unusual for me, I usually get a gap between ovulation pains and lead up to period pains.
Has anyone experienced pain similar to endo cramps in early pregnancy?
I would SO appreciate any info.
Thank you!

With my second pregnancy I experience a lot of cramping and back pain throughout the pregnancy. So much so they thought I might be having an ectopic pregnancy and did an early scan to check. The baby was fine and is now five years old. I did get a lot more general pain during this pregnancy but everything turned out well in the end. I hope this helps and I wish you all the best. Good luck.
Hi, I got exactly the same symptoms you are describing with both of my pregnancies. so much so I thought I was starting my period due to my regular painful cramps I was getting. It was only because I didn’t actually start my period and have the usual heavy bleeding that I took a pregnancy test and I was pregnant! Good luck with everything x x
Before i found out i was pregnant i had the usual pains but i had bleeding before my period was due. Only spotting. Then i got ridiculously tired and fatigued but stil had all the cramps and usual symptoms coming up to my period, it was only when it was late i found out i was pregnant.During pregnancy i had bad cramps and pelvic pain but it was dismissed by the doctors saying it can't be endometriosis as the hormones during pregnancy should improve the endo. Instead i got told it was pelvic pain. It was ridiculously painful for me especially moving anywhere.I had a scare at 6 weeks as i started bleeding alot but thankfully my son was ok.
Now (son is now 10months) my endo has come back worse but they don't want to believe it as "pregnancy should help".
This is only my experience of pregnancy and after, for you or others it may present very different or not at all.
Management options during it was difficult, cant have heat pad so a bath (37c) was my go to. At one point the drs did give me a codiene dirrivitive but could not have much and pregnancy pillows and lots of pillows.
