but i am cramping... i dont remember if i got cramping with my daughter when i found out i was pregnant... is it possible?

they feel like normal period cramps... but since my period is late.. i'm hoping its pregnancy. i plan to test tomorrow morning if i dont start my period by then.

I frequently have cramping prior to my period starting (it's usually a sign that it's on its way). Of course, it's possible that your pregnant, but only time or an HPT will tell.

With my previous pregnancies...I had AF like cramps like crazy and swore it was about to start...and never did. Although I don't test positive until a week past my expected AF...so it could still go either way for ya. I also had AF like cramps for the first 9 or so weeks with my pregnancies.

I always get period cramps the day or so before my period starts. I never thought anything of it, but of course now that we're TTC every twinge, no matter how "par for the course it may be, makes me think that it's a sign.

So my answer is - could be regular AF cramping, could be a sign that you're pregnant - only way to be sure is to take a HPT!

When I was pregnant (ended in m/c), I had intense AF cramps the week my period was due. I remember being SO bummed out because I thought the cramps were AF coming on and then I realized I was late enough to test and got a BFP.

FX for you---good luck!

I had AF type cramps around when my period would have come when I was KU, and I had let my OB know and she said that it was normal. That being said, it could also just be AF cramps. You really can't know without taking a test. Good luck!

Hey- I'm in the same boat as you! AF would most likely arrive today... I have mild cramping, but so far no sign of any blood (I usually spot the day before). If this keeps up I'm picking up some HPTs and using one when I get home tonight. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

OK, I don't mean this in a bad or rude way, but you are not really late yet, your period is due today so........

Just wait it out a couple more days and if you still have cramps but no AF then maybe there is something to celebrate:)

Good luck!

Yes you can get cramps when you are pregnant. I got AF like cramps when I was expecting AF with each of my pregnancies. But honestly you will not know which it is until you test and find out. Technically you are not considered late until tomorrow, and even if you get a BFN and no AF, it could just mean you Oed late...which is normal. Good luck

BirdGirl, did you test? I did, and guess what- I got a BFP!!! I have my fingers crossed that you got the same results!
