Q: Menstrual Cramps

After All I've been investigating I searched that menstrual cramps and feeling you're having your period but not having it are pregnancy symptoms.... these are the only things I'm having right now. I'm irregular so I don't know if im overdue. With these symptoms you can tell there's a chance? Or there should be anything else. I don't know if I should be worried because I'm having cramps but my period hasn't arrived yet... thx =)

I've never heard of cramps being a sign of pregnancy... if you think you're pregnant then go buy a pregnancy test, it's the only way to know.

When I was about 4 or 5 weeks pregnant I experienced period-like cramps. They were not severe, just like I was going to come on to a period. I was advised by the obstetrician I saw at the hospital that it was entirely normal and was common in early pregnancy.

This was the way I was. I still have slight cramps on and off. At 12 weeks and 1 day. U/S shows perfect baby and heart rate. Doc said there is a less than 1% for m/c. Cramping is normal. It's stretching of the uterus.

I had some cramps in my lower stomach when I found out I was pregnant with my first child, that is what made me think I was pregnant, along with my missed period. Every person is different though, and may concieve pain in different ways. Maybe you should take a pregnancy test.
