Period cramps but no period?

Last week I had this mild cramping feeling in my stomach, it felt exactly like period pain but I wasn't due on until 2 days ago, I still haven't had my period and keep cramping, I haven't taken a pregnancy test yet just incase it is my period but.. I feel so strange!

@Babydust112 I would take a test. Are you hoping to be pregnant?
Before I realised that I was pregnant I had unusual pulling feelings down there, is it like that?

Babydust112 · 13/02/2022 15:51

Yes!!! Omg! I've been experiencing these sharp stabbing twinges that come and go and this dull period like ache in the bottom of my belly, I'm 2 days late today but haven't taken a test just yet incase I've got it all wrong, me & my partner aren't TTC but I think both of us would be happy! I think I'll wait until tomorrow and then get a test!

@Babydust112 well what I had I'd never really experienced before. It wasn't like period cramps, more like a tightening, pulling feeling especially from sitting to standing. Let us know how the test goes.

@Babydust112 Any news?

What's your age? A friends cycles started going slightly off second half of her thirties. Her mums did too.

Babydust112 · 15/02/2022 21:18

I'm only 25 :( I hope nothing is wrong, it's very unusual for me to be this late and I will test again in a few days xx

Covid jab?

QuitMoaning · 15/02/2022 21:22

I had those pains and went to see the Doctor.

Those pains are now 24 years old and he has a degree, a good job and a lovely girlfriend.

Babydust112 · 16/02/2022 13:36

I really think I am pregnant but those tests I took said different so I can only go with those negative tests I guess! 😔 I'm still late and no sign of period, it's so strange I'm never this late xx

Good luck! If it's not too late ask him to get a pink dye test like a a First Response as they tend to give clearer results.
If it's negative, the covid jab can mess up your cycle in some people, if that's a possibility.

Similar boat, but I'm a week late. All negative tests. Had brown discharge around ovulation time. GP has me booked in for a blood test on Monday.

Hope everything goes to plan for you.

UserBotLurking9to5 · 17/02/2022 22:26

My daughter gets this all the time, nearly 19.

DailyFailstinks · 17/02/2022 22:55

I had the exact same thing after each of my COVID jabs. Period pains but no period, and then a very heavy one arriving a week late. Happened for two cycles after each jab, but went back to normal after that.

carsty · 09/08/2022 15:32

i know this is late but any updatr, were you pregnant?

Feelinghawt · 24/09/2023 20:20

@bedheadedzombie I know this is an old thread. But I am the second half of my thirties and this is happening to me. Did your friend and her mum ever find out what it was?
