Could I be pregnant?

Hi all,

There are probably so many threads like this one and if I were here I'd get sick of it but I don't know where else to turn to. My last period was on the 13th december and my cycle has always been regular as clockwork every 28-30 days. I have 2 period tracker apps and they both told me I was due on the 11th. They're pretty much always right in my case.

I've had a feeling I was pregnant for around 2 weeks now. I started getting weird light cramps in my lower abdomen and pms type symptoms even though I was nowhere near due. When I did get within a week or so of my period all the symptoms went away. For the past 3/4 days I keep feeling like I'm about to start my period or that I just have but it never happens. Is it normal to have cramping in early pregnancy? Could I be pregnant? Or am I just late? I know other things like stress can cause late periods but I am such a stressful person and every other month, I'm fine.

Thank you for reading

No one on the internet can tell you if you’re pregnant. Only a test can do that.

Yes period like cramps are a common symptom. I'm just pregnant with the same dates as you. Could be, why don't you do a test?

Why haven’t you taken a test? That’s the only thing that’s will tell you if you’re pregnant.

I am of course planning to do a test in the morning. Just don't want to waste one if I'm being unreasonable, never heard of the cramping thing before. Thanks anyway for your replies!

You can get a cramping/ sensation at implanration which is around halfway through your cycle. Did you do a test?

Waste a test? They are cheap and available from supermarkets...?

Did a test this morning, BFN. AF still hasn't made an appearance, so now I wait I guess.

Hmm, defo sounds like you could be since you're a few days late. Do you want to be? Just test again in a few days I guess.

Sorry some pps have been a bit snippy to you. Sounds like you're feeling a bit anxious and just wanting to hear what others think is going on, which is totally fine.

I would wait a week and if you still haven’t had your period, do another test. Good luck x

Thanks smellyjo, glad someone understands. Smile Just wanted to know other people's experiences. Anxious is an understatement, absolutely terrified!

Day 4 of late period now, spotting last night and this morning (which I've never had before, very weird. Confused )
