BFP? Feeling really crampy

11 replies

DP and I have been trying to get pregnant for about 8 months now. Am at CD23 of a 22-26 day cycle, POAS yesterday and I think there was a very faint line, looked more clear when I did one this morning - there's a pic on my profile. Is that a line or am I hallucinating?

The thing is, I feel exactly like I normally do before my period - quite crampy and backachy and I'm in a foul mood (get really bad PMT).

So pregnant or not?

I would say you are pregnant - congratulations!

but what about the crampiness? Is that normal (really can't remember from when I was pregnant with DS)?

Looks like a BFP to me! Hopefully the cramping won't come to anything

ChuckleMonster · 06/04/2012 08:18

I think cramping is pretty normal - a line is a line, and there is definatley a line!

Pregnant.......definitely. You will only get 2 lines if the pregnancy hormone is present. I would try a Digi but congratulations.

Pregnancy and PMT are so similar, if not identical.

I had lots of cramping early on with both my pregnancies. Congratulations :-)

Both my pregnancies were symptomised by feeling like my period was about to start, but then it never happened. Sounds like a BFP!! Congrats!!

I had period like cramps for the first few weeks after bfp. Congratulations

Been cramping for the last week! Was expecting AF 4 days ago!
Half hearted did a cheapy test to see a faint but definate line!
Only had lines when pregnant!!!! I believe I am not a sniff of AF but the cramps! Are worrying so still expect AF to turn up!
And pee on my parade!!!!!!

Good luck and Congrats!!!!

I'm pretty sure I had a CP Jan/Feb as I missed AF with only spotting for a few weeks, a couple of faint BFPs then BFNs. AF finally arrived 22nd March and I'm spotting again now. Did a mega early test a couple of days ago and got the same faint BFP. Hoping it'll be a nice clear BFP in a couple of days so being cautiously optimistic. I also feel a bit sicky and was really bloated yesterday. Again exactly the same as before. My EDD would be 27th Dec. FX for us eh?
