8 DPO (or 7) cramping like CRAZY

[Tina_TTC2]

feels like AF is here but am not due for about a week. cramping is really low in the pelvis too..

I dont ever recall having heavy cramping a week before AF.. Usually only a couple of days if that, and then of course during..

Anyone get a lot of cramping early on?

THANKS!

woke up at 4:45 this morning with nausea - nibbled on a ginger snap and this seemed to help for a little bit but the nausea is coming back. Took a test BFN..

I know it's early - with my first pregnancy I had nausea at like 9 DPO, it faded after a couple days then came back in force a week or 2 later for the first trimester.

this early nausea is driing me nuts. Between it, the cramping, the on and off weepiness - I KNOW all of these can be in my head or part of AF coming, but the nausea makes me think - Just maybe -... but then again, I'm probably just making myself physically ill with the anxiety. The only thing on that is that the nausea woke me up this am, so I wasn't anxious sleeping ( * don't think? )

I brok down and sent a request to that Sondra Gibbs for a reading - i figured it wasn't terribly expensive and it gives me something to look forward to (albeit impatiently!) besides testing. I have been using internet tests that are supposed to be as accurate as First Response Early - but I don't know if they really are. All these tests just test level of HCG and if they test the same level of HCG (my internet ones and the FREPT) wouldn't that be the same?

I dono - maybe I am too old and Fat to get pregnant

It sounds promising! I will say that the first month we TTC, I had all the symptoms: sore boobs, nausea (felt like a hang over), headache, all of it! Unfortunately it was all in my head. Not trying to discourage you. As long as hasn't shown up, you still have a chance!!!

Thanks to you both!!! I don't have full blown nausea - but am 'off' on certain foods. I had a frosted lemon cookie that I bought and took a bite of it and it gagged me - too sweet/strong. I'll be throwing it away.

I have been craving protein type things when I can stomach them - meat - beef sticks, or some kind of red meat for the past couple of days as well. That's probably nothing at all though.

I am headed to the grocery store on lunch - will probably get some soft pretzels to nibble on - those with mustard seem to help settle the tummy.

As I said, this could all be anxiety, and if it is, I'll be so upset with myself for doing this. All in my head. could very well be.

Oh well. Thank you again - am off to get something for lunch (if i can find something that sounds appetizing).

I went to the store and picked up the soft pretzels, some cheese, some honey mustard, some beef sticks... some Honey roasted peanuts...... and...........

A first response early response - 6 days before your missed period - TEST...a 3 pack - cost me $19 dollars (I AM INSANE!)...

Just took one.. and of course.. BFN...

Burying my sorrows in my salted soft pretzel and some cheese..

thanks again everyone...
