    Is it possible??

    Hi girls,

    Is it possible for your body to think its having AF (I am 4 weeks and 4 days pg) but not actually be bleeding......but therefore getting the aches and dullness of AF pain?

    Hi Flossie.

    Congratulations on your pregnancy. I had all my normal AF cramps and aches for the first 8 weeks! Of course no bleeding (luckily). I just kept reminding myself that the pains are my body's way of starting to nurture the little life growing and naturally there is some stretching to accommodate the ever-growing bean. Take comfort in these "symptoms" and know that your body is just doing its job for you and your bub

    I had no cramping until the day after I told my family I was expecting... typical! But it did feel really period-y and I just put it down to growth. It stopped after a couple of days and only get maybe 5 minutes here and there now.

    Maybe AF loves you SOOOO much she's sent you a little rememberance gift as she can't visit for a while now.

    I had terrible cramps and dull aches in the few days leading up to when we got our BFP.
    I kenw something was different though as I have never had AF cramps before.
    I got told they were to do with my body getting ready to grow baby!
