I only ever get cramping the day before and first day of my period. I've been pregnant 4 times and only had cramping as a pg symptom with my last pg, so you never know.
Juniper - no, I haven't managed to get utd since I've had the cramping thing going on. (It's been 9 months or so since my last chem preg, last year I was getting pregnant fairly easily - not that it helped me but that is another story!) It is not even severe or painful, just enough to make me think "ba-bow, out for this month." Actually I've been wondering if it is related to endo for me too. I had (very mild) endo before having my first child, but I didn't get cramps back then, I used to get spotting - for 8 days prior to af. After a lap the spotting diminished and I got utd. These days my spotting is erratic, but I am getting this cramping, and I'm wondering if it could be endo that has returned and is somehow manifesting in a different way.
Or is this just a common thing with pmt? I am suspicious of the cramping going on for so very long though *scowls at stomach*.
That would make endo a prime suspect. Problem is, of course, you have to have a surgery to check it out and remove it... I don't think it's the only possible explanation though. You could always have a chat with your Dr about it if it's worrying you that much.
I just do my best to ignore it, but it makes me super cranky by the end of the week. It's like having AF taunt you for an entire week, saying, "I'm coming!"...
Yeah I've got a FS appt next week so will discuss it. Yes it's been making me pretty cranky too!!
I haven't had many cramps today though, and am 13dpo so should expect a lot by now. And I haven't had any spotting this month either which is quite unusual by now although feeling a certain 'heaviness'. *Shrug* will probably test tonight or tomorrow.
