Does anyone here know the difference between AF cramps and early pregnancy cramps? Are pregnancy cramps higher up, or are cramps just cramps? Asking for a... friend. 😆

@Mosherchick I'm afraid for me there was no difference which is massively helpful 😂

@Ladybird345 I suppose that's somewhat comforting 😂 I've started cramping, and it's making me anxious. Thought it may have been a little higher, but I don't really trust myself to be impartial haha

@Mosherchick all the same I'm afraid! That's what's extra cruel lol

@mosherchick I'm afraid for me af & early pregnancy cramping felt the same... Our bodies like to trick us like that 🙈

@Ladybird345 well I'm determined to!! I don't have any tests in at all so hopefully I won't be tempted to order any! We'll try and stop each other😂 mine have been strange to since I took northisterone in August! Well not strange but just longer than usual, I used to be 30 days dead on and ovulate around CD 16/17 but my last 2 cycles have been 33 days and last cycle ovulated cd 23 and this cycle cd 20, so I'm just gonna wait for af to show up! I really hope I get my BFP and my due date will be OH birthday!!

@Mosherchick I've never had a BFP so I'm not sure but my friend who's pregnant now said she just felt like she had really bad period pains!

@mosherchick I've been pregnant a couple of times so I can tell you they aren't all the same. You can have no symptoms or the whole lot, or really bad cramping. The only time I had cramping in early pregnancy it was super bad cramping like woooow so yeah they can all be different.
I kind of needed to say that because I started telling myself well I'm obviously not pregnant even though I know I've found out I was pregnant at 7 weeks and was shocked haha

@gem176 my 2 are 10 and 11 and I'm ttc now 🙈

@nestinginNL fab puppy. Heres my baby after her groom this morning 🥰

@hopeful110 hope ur ok hun. Its dreadful, it comes out of no where. I let hit me the other day when I should have been heading for my booking in apt and scan 😥

God u check in once a day and theres so much catching up lol
So did opk and got this. Had a nice hot relaxing bath last night, DTD last night, will again tonight and over the next few days if we can. 🤞 and toes crossed.
Should I keep testing opks for next wk or so to be sure?
Because I've no idea when af is due if its not here my end of month I'll test. See closer the time.

@Juno231 pop me down for the 18th of November ☺️ I’m mostly regular with the occasional crazy long one. It seems so far away! I remember when I was younger having long periods was a good thing, now it’s just fewer 👶 opportunities ☹️

@Minster2012 older dog’s doing much better already. Much less jealousy and ignoring him less on walks. She keeps trying to play with him, but he gets scared and flops over or dives into a ditch 🤣 we’ll get there soon.

Have attached a cuddle picture but it seems to have gone upside down 🤔

@Mosherchick I think they’re the same. I spend every month trying to work out the difference though 😅 How long till AF is due now?

Thank you, guys. I suppose I just need to be patient! Hearing about your experiences is great though, as I have nothing to base it on.

@2alreadywantanother I'm not sure tbh - your OPK labelled peak doesn't seem to be as dark as the control line to me? Had it perhaps dried out by this point?

@juno231 this is it on it's own
