Actually cramping does occur in early pregnancy. You feel like you are getting your period. What other symptoms are you having?

Yes, it is a sign in early pregnancy. This is how I knew I was pregnant. Usually if I cramp, I start bleeding almost immediatly. I cramped for a week straight and then my period never came.

I had the 5 days of ovulation pains(middle pains), then these small cramps in my ovaries--different from the ovulation pain for around 3 weeks. I am now 6.5 weeks pregnant. And you know what I have no uterus. I still have the pains intermittant but not all the times like the first 3 weeks. I even had 3 times that the pains so bad I got severly lite headed. But extrauterine and or ectopic pregnancy is quite different from intrauterine preg as far as the pains in abdomen goes. But my boobs are killing me. Lol

Yes these are the main symptoms I have been getting and am just putting it down to periods on their way. Since having unprotected sex over three weeks ago with my partner, I have been getting them a couple of days after. Its going on too long to be period pains, surely. Straight after sex (well a couple of days) and I am still getting them but not as bad. I have been getting bad mood swing and alot of gas?

Have done two test and both negaitive, so will do one on the 16th aug when i'm due them! So hopefully it is a symptom as its frustrating as u all know. Don't know how many website I have researched since.

Also www.Faqfarm.Com do alot on this subject - cramps in stomach

At this point since you've missed your period already you need to test yourself or go to the doctor.

This are the symptoms I experience--morning sickness later on in preg around 3 months, sickness from eating certain things from beginnings of preg, swelling in boobs and privates, sometimes swelling in hands and feet, white discharge in the beginning, super sensitivity in privates, pain in nipples and general breast tenderness, bloated feelings, tightness in areas around pregnancy, headaches esp in beginning, moody, leg cramps, lite headed ness, pain in area around pregnancy if pressure is applied there, nausea after lite headedness or pressure applied to the area, possible easier to get yeast infections, the very next morning with 4 of my pregnancy's I felt like a butterfly feelings, and uncomfortable abdominal feelings, very gassy, some constipation, blurts of diarhea, my eyes look different, and this pregnancy I look younger--course im 43 years old and havent had those hormones in my blood for 20 years.

Forgot to mention urinating like crazy, in the beginning its hormonal in the end its the baby that makes you go so much!!

Fatfamily02 i'm starting to wonder if I could be pregnant. My husband and had unprotected sex on the 6th of august, he also ejaculated inside of me. My period isn't due now till the 20th or around about. I never experienced breast tenderness with my other two girls. But ive been havin cramps now for 2 days since the 6th off nad on, gassy, urinating during the day and in the middle of the night. What do you think. My cycle used to be every 28 days, but since I misse carried two years ago my cycle can start anywhere from 22-27 days

Most Probable Time to Conceive...
Posted: 08-11-05 12:14pm

You take 14 days off of 20th and you get 6. That means it was your most possible time to get pregnant. So chances are you could be pregnant.
Id wait until after missed period to do pregnancy test though. I have found them not to be accurate early on. There could be a little brown blood or spotting right around your period, but might only be the implantation bleeding, which I never had but a lot of these women say they get it.

Dont worry if first test dont come out the first time, for my daughter had to wait 3 weeks after missed period to get pos on the test.

Bady dust to you--that is if you want it

good luck

I Think So...
Posted: 08-11-05 12:42pm

I have a question too, I have been without contraception for a month now, sleeping with my partner every other night, and not become pregnant. I had a period and had a neg hpt. I have also been without protection this month, am I infertile? Could I test for a pregnancy now?

Thankyou very much for your advice

Usually after b/c pills it is easier to get pregnant.

If you had regular period chances are you werent preg be4 then.

Cramping
Posted: 08-09-07 17:16pm

I have a few questions for fatfamily02... My husband and i are trying for our 2nd child so i stopped my birth control around the middle of April and my cycles for may and june were 28 days but last month it was only 20 days first of all how do i know when i'm ovulating this month and when i'm suppose to have my period? Second of all we had intercourse on July 30th (which was our anniversary) and now for the past two weeks my stomach has been cramping like i'm about to have my period but i know its not time yet! And on top of that my right ovary had started trobbing for the past 3 days and above my pelvis is tender if i touch it and sharp pains shoot up from my rectum and into my lower stomach if i sit down or touch it but not consistantly. Pretty much all thats from my navel down hurts. Could I be pregnant??????? Please help me figure this out!!!! Please!
