BFP but cramps

Today I have found out I am pregnant after 9 months TTC was so so happy I am still in shock! I am getting some period like cramping quite mild and so worried I’m going to come on my AF :( has anyone had any positive stories with this?

Cramps are completely normal in early pregnancy as it's your uterus expanding for the baby.
With both my DDs, I was convinced that AF would come at any moment because of all the cramps.

Everyone I know has had exactly the same.

Hope this helps x

Also, congratulations! X

Definitely normal! Mine were so bad the first time round I was convinced af had arrived. Try and relax, congratulations! X

Cramps are an early pregnancy symptom and can last a few weeks and with your first can be quite sore. It's the baby getting nose and comfy but also your uterus starting to stretch x

Thank you so much I don’t have anyone to talk to really as we have decided to wait to the weekend to tell parents and then the scan for friends so was starting to panic. Thankyou xxx

Thanks for posting this as I was coming on this morning to ask the same thing. I estimate I’m 4 weeks and 5 days today and I still have cramping and it’s putting me on edge but glad to hear it seems normal 🤞🏻

Congrats to you!

Congrats @HumbleBee223
I've had cramps for a week now. Periodically throughout the day along with another few symptoms. But I've had 3 BFN and I'm now 5 days late for AF and I've never been a day late in over 4 years so I'm slightly anxious to know why

@Chica1990 congrats to you too lovely! Glad it has helped you. I have also got sore boobs, nausea and the worst headache.

@Aims1991 I’m sorry to hear that, when was the last time you tested? Xxx

@HumbleBee223 last tested 2 days ago! I'm trying to see if waiting another few days makes a difference. I have cramps, sore boobs, headaches some back again and had some random gum bleeding🤷🏻‍♀️

@HumbleBee223 Congratulations! Just for a heads up I'm 14 weeks and 5 days and I still have cramping :-) completely normal x
