Convinced that my period is coming?

Did anyone else in early pregnancy feel convinced that their period was on its way before or after they tested positive? I’ve got constant cramps, luckily only mild, and that heavy pressure type feeling down below. I keep wiping and checking because I sometimes feel convinced that I’ll be bleeding :( its making me so anxious. Hoping to hear some reassuring stories.

Very much so. I could have sworn it was imminent for at least a week.

Absolutely, which is why I didn't take a test until I was a week late 🤣🤣 currently 37 weeks pregnant and the period feeling lasted till about 8 weeks

I’m now 12 weeks pregnant with my third baby and in every single one of my pregnancies I’ve felt exactly like I’m about to get my period for the first few weeks. Try not to worry, it’s just the baby implanting properly.

Thank god someone finally mentioned the pressure down below !!! I have searched Google and found nothing I had 4 positive pregnancy tests and swore my period was coming I still get it now at 7+2 and I found out at 4 weeks !

Yes, I definitely remember having this, up to around 8 weeks but maybe after as well

Same experience here. Although, I did a test when I was a couple of days late, came out negative. Had bad period pains and back aches, just thought period was coming and didn't even expect otherwise for another 2 weeks, just thought it was odd. Wasn't worried about pregnancy, but picked up another test without giving it too much thought. Turned positive instantly.

Yes! I had this until about week 10. It felt exactly like my period was about to start. The doctor said it was normal so not to worry. All the best Flowers.

Yes, until about 12 weeks. It's totally normal so try not to worry.
