How do you know if your cramping is related to gas, PMS, or possible pregnancy cramping?
My friend thought her period was coming because she felt cramps but turns out she was pregnant.

I'm just not very good at telling sensations apart in my abdomen and wondering how you all know the difference or if there is even a way to tell?

So far I've had twinges, almost sharp pains but not particularly painful entirely on my right side, but general crampiness elsewhere. This general cramping sometimes makes my back hurt. These seem like good signs to me, but I'm afraid its all in my head right now.
I noticed I got the cramping a lot worse right after I did a bunch of bending over. Not sure if that means anything at all though... :( Just trying to keep myself sane and make sure I don't get my heart set on a BFP anymore than it already is.
 
I got a faint :bfp: today and I had AF like cramping on and off for the last two weeks. Sometimes it was horrible, the cramping was bad, then other times it was like mild twinges. . . .

Hope that helps. . . .:dust:
 
How many dpo are you both? I am 10dpo and feel like af is going to come on any minute, despite it not being due for another 4 days (19/04). I am on metformin for the first time though, so it could be that it is going to mess up my cycles. Hoping af stays away for us all xx
 
I'm 11dpo right now but have been cramping for a while now. It may be related to the Clomid I'm on but I just don't know. I normally only cramp while I'm actually on my period though that was before I started Clomid. Now I get cramping more often but I'm not always sure exactly what kind of cramping its.
 
9 DPO....have been having tight cramps which happen really quickly for milli seconds, quite painful and make me ouch out loud!!
been doin hpo but nothing, did a ovulation test last nite and had a positive!! so this would mean iv ovulated twice within 9days!
any advice.....Lisa gud luck iv been on clomid in the past and ended with twins heehee!!
 
I normally have a 32 day cycle, I am currently on cycle day 38, I think I o'd late on the 29 of march, but not really sure.. . . I had cramping since then and super bloating! I looked like I was 4 months pregnant! The bloating has gone down and the cramping stopped about 4 days ago . . . .
 
this gives me hope because i have cramps and feel as tho af is due even tho she shouldnt come till tuesday
 
I have also had painful cramps since last week and tonight they have been really bad. I'm 12dpo and not due AF until Tues/Wed.
 
Hi everyone

Congratulations on your :bfp: TTCEmily x

Im going through the same thing now with the cramps. Because we wanted to try getting pregnant just by luck for a while im not checking ovulation dates or anything but i think im roughly 4-7 dpo from what the ovulation calenders on the net tell me. Ive been having mild cramps and been really bloated since monday, to the extent that im having to undo my jeans now :-( .
This is exactly how i get just before AF but shes not due till about 25th so not really sure whats going on.

was just wondering at what dpo you all started getting the bloating and cramping ?

:dust:

Started right away for me this month, usually I get the cramping and bloating a week before af is due.
 
I'm so glad I'm not the only one wondering about this. I am 14dpo today and I had cramps lastnight that woke me up. I thought for sure it was AF but wasn't. I tested this morning and BFN so I dunno. I really want this to be my month......don't we all!!!

So nice to know im not alone :) When is AF due? xx

AF is due on the 23rd for me, and it's also my late grandfathers birthday so I want to wait and test then, maybe it will be lucky for me. How about you?

My cramping turned into bathroom visits (tmi)
I still have cramps and feel kinda nauseous right now.
I just want this week to fly by so I can get on and test lol

When are you testing?
 
I had the cramping and bloating form the first dpo, I was running to the bathroom very hour because of that and a wet feeling. It was just creamy cm and cramps.. Good luck ladies and lots of :dust:

How many dpo are you now? You still cramping
I think I might just drive myself crazy symptom spotting.
I need something to take my mind of it for the next week
 
I am 13 dpo. Been having mild cramps for a few days, I think :witch: is on her way for me!! Going to test Monday if :witch: isn't here.

Aren't our bodies confusing??

Lots of :dust: for you all!!!
 
Hi everyone

I am 7DPO and have been cramping and having twinges since 1DPO! I also feel very bloated and gassy (sorry TMI) for the past couple of days... have a wet feeling and keep running to the loo but seem to have lots of creamy CM.... dont want to get my hopes up but cant help thinking... humm maybe...

I will also be testing on 23rd (if I can keep myself from not doing it before!!!)

Congrats ttcemily

:dust: to everyone else
 
I'm in the same boat as you guys, keep popping to the loo with that wet feeling only to find lots of cm! Hope its a good sign for all of us! AF is due on 25th for me so was gonna test on 28th... but not sure I can hold out that long!
 
mine are still just cramps coming and going normally i come on the next day when i get the cramos and its been a few days so ya never know and i know what you mean about the wet feeling fingers crossed for us all
