Stomach cramps

HI there

Have been having mild stomach cramps for the last week or so. Its about the right time for AF so I assumed I would be getting it but so far it has not appeared. Now I'm wondering if it might be a sign I'm pg? We are moving house in two days so all my pg tests are packed and I can't get it out of my head that I might be pg. But at the same time I don't want to go out and buy a test in case its a BFN and I get disappointed (silly logic I know :rolleyes:). I had a look at various sites and they say that cramps can be a sign of pg but is this common? I almost never get cramps before my AF only during so if thats what it is is would be unusual for me! It's driving me a bit nuts (in a nice way) thinking about it to be honest but I have so much else on this week with moving and work that I'm not sure I want to know yet...if that makes sense!!!

Any thoughts??

Hi,

Leading up to the time I knew AF was due I had slight cramping and had that usual bloaty fullness. I was SURE AF was on her way but she never showed. :)

Slight cramping can definitely be an early pg symptom. If you don't want to be disappointed by a BFN then see if you can hold out until AF is due and if she's late test then. HPTs are more reliable after AF is late anyway.

Good luck :bluedust:

Hey there, yes I so do understand. Like you i have a thousand things going on at the moment, and didn't even notice that the 'due date' for AF cam and went last week. When I did yestrday I was really really ill, so I don't know if that masked any symptoms. I'm really not keen to test cos I don't know what my reaction might be...but then I'VE GOT TO KNOW!!!

GL with the move nad let us know if you decide to test.

Hi there, I got an early HPT yesterday and did it this moring. It was a BFN!!! Feeling a bit disappointed about it but I have so much going on right now it would not have been the best timing!!

The only thing now is that I'm puzzled by what these cramps are as still no AF!!

Good luck with your test Kim!
