Q: Cramping?
asked by: angelbeans on January 19th, 2006

I was just wondering if anyone here experienced cramping in their early stages of pregnancy? I am currently ttc, and the day before my period was due I had cramps like I was getting my period, and all through the night, and then it stopped. I no longer have cramps, but I really thought I was going to get my peroid. Has anyone experienced this?

Before I knew I was pregnant, I was cramping, which I thought was my period coming on. During pregnancy, it is normal to have round ligament pain, which feels like cramping.

I Was Wondering the Same Thing!
I've been wondering the same thing, guess this answered my question! I've been having little cramps, sorta like period cramps but they're not as painful! If that makes sense? Lol..But my period is 3 days late & i've been having these for about 2 days now..If I am pregnant I would only be like 3 wks. So I wouldn't be havin to many symptoms yet I guess!
