Help please! Bfp but cramps like period

[thatgirl28]

Hi everyone,
I took a test yesterday and this morning and it came out positive. My period should be due today or tomorrow (I'm not super regular) but hasn't come yet. However, I feel like it's about to come. I feel cramping in my abdomen (not super strong and no spotting) has anyone felt that? I'm so worried

I had really painful cramps around the time my period was due in my second pregnancy. I even took painkillers for it before I'd tested as I was so convinced it was my period. It's very common apparently. It was absolutely fine and I had a healthy pregnancy.
Congratulations on the BFP!

Hey hun. I got my BFP on Monday and had cramps ever since. AF was due tomorrow. So...I'll keep you updated x

I had cramps pretty much continuously for the first 8 weeks. Unless they're accompanied by bleeding or they move up to serious pain level, they're normal. And even for the bleeding, I was in for spotting three times and everything is grand.

With my dd I refused to do a pregnancy test as I was convinced my period would arrived at any moment for four days. Really bad period feeling cramps. She's 2.5 years now.

Thanks for letting me know! I feel a tad bit better!!
Went to the doctor today and he said as long as I'm not bleeding it should be fine. He didn't seem concerned but of course, I'm parables

I meant I'm paranoid stupid autocorrect

I had cramps all day every day for the first 8-10 weeks. It's usually just your bits and bobs shifting and expanding and growing to make room. That's what mine were. I still sometimes get them a bit but a lot less now at 12+3.
