Hi, i guess i'm asking if anyone who has gotten a BFP has actually had AF cramps and thought AF was on her way? I know there are several who have gotten "pulling", dull cramps, etc. But has anyone gotten those pre AF twinges that you can't mistake for AF cramps and then ended up with a BFP? Just wondering, and obsessing...because i have those twinges right now that i usually get a couple days before AF and I wanted to know if anyone else has gotten them with a BFP later instead of witchhag AF?

Hi Danielle,

I can't speak from personal experience, but I remember before my sister found out she was pg she thought that her period was coming. Everytime we went out for almost two weeks she would be like "do you have a tampon, I think I'm finally getting my period", needless to say after she was 12 days late she took a test and was pg. She was trying, but not really keeping track of her cycles - she is lucky - I hope that you are too!

Yes, Danielle! BOTH times I got a BFP I didn't even test early like usual because I was totally convinced that AF was on her way. I had exactly the same pre-AF type cramps and then AF just didn't arrive. I hope this is the same( but stickier) for you!

GL!

Before I found out I was preg with dd, I thought af was on her way. As a matter of fact, for the 1st month or two, I was getting af like cramps around the time of af.

Yes, all three times I had AF cramps around the time AF was due. The first time was the worst. I even had pre-AF discharge and thought for sure she was on her way. I was even a few days late and convinced she'd show before I took the test and got a BFP. I hope it's the same for you!
