    cramping Q

    Has anyone been a couple of days late and gotten cramping (like mild period cramps) on and off and then gotten a BFP? I tested 2 days ago (AF due date) and got a BFN but AF is still not here which is very unusual and I have some mild cramps on and off. Do you think I should give up on the BFP this month and assume AF is just late and will show up or could I still be preg?

    Yes. I had on and off cramping for 5 days before we got a BFP with DD. Was the week AF was due. I was sure that I was out for that month, but I did a test 4 days after AF was due, and got a BFP straight away.

    It could still be too early for you. Depends on your HCG levels. I wouldn't give up untill AF shows. If you want to know either way, then maybe book yourself in for a BT....

    Wishing you all the best and I hope it is a BFP for you

    I didn't have any cramping before my BFP but just wanted to say don't give up until she rears her ugly head (and I hope she doesn't!)

    Im with adkins_81, last month i had cramping around af and just assumed it was that, but she didnt come and all my hpt and bt's came back -ive. I am usually regular 28 - 30day cycle so i was a bit concerned that by cd43 af still wasnt here and i wasnt pg. Anyway my dr seemed to think that i o'ed quite late and the cramps were o cramps - i didnt believe him but 14 days after the cramps and cd44 AF came. Dh and i didnt bd aroung my actual o time because i swore black and blue that i already had so i was a bit annoyed at that. My advice would be bd for fun just in case, but i really hope for you that you are pg and you'll get your BFP in a few days.
    Also you could go and have a bt as some women dont get bpf's on hpts
    Good Luck

    No BFP this month. AF was 1 week late. Better luck next month - hopefully.
