BFP but period symptoms

[Jasmin1993]

Heyy. Got my BFP today! But have got bad back ache. Last night I had really bad stomach cramps and back ache. Is this normal or should I be worried.
Thank you xx

In my experience its perfectly normal. Congratulations 🎊

Ah ok thank you. Was just worried because it’s a dull ache and cramps on and off xx

I just got a bfp this evening too and I'm in the same boat sore boobs and mild cramps. I'm glad I'm not the only one. Fingers crossed we both have successful pregnancies 😄🙏🏻

Congratulations!!

I’m sure it’s normal but i think when you know your pregnant you look out for all these symptoms and then worry about them being normal. Typical haha. Xx

In my experience of two totally straightforward, healthy pregnancies, early pregnancy symptoms are pretty identical to pre-period symptoms. I had sore boobs, mild cramping etc at the beginning with both of mine. . Relax, it's normal

I had period like cramps until I was at least 15 weeks with my first pregnancy. I paid for private early scans as I was so convinced something was wrong as it just felt so much like period cramps. My health 19 month old is asleep in the room next to me currently, so I’d say it was normal :)

Thankyou that's so reassuring ❤️

The hormone fluctuations of pregnancy are very like what causes the symptoms of pms. It's what makes symptom spotting so hard when TTC! It sounds like nothing to worry about. Congratulations!
