12 DPO-cramps for pregnancy or period!?

Question

Hi all! I have been experiencing cramps the past couple of days. I am expected to get my period on Friday and I'm 11 DPO today. For those who have been pregnant, did pregnancy cramps feel identical to cramps you get right before your period? Like a mild cramp in my uterus area. I did get a shadow line on three different types of tests today, but I feel like my period is coming :(. Any advice?

Answer

Thanks for the advice ladies!!

Answer

I've been super crampy since about 5/6 dpo.. I'm 10dpo now .. I normally don't cramp at all between ovulation & AF .. hoping it's a good sign 🤞🏻

Answer

My pregnancy cramps didn't start until a few days after I missed my period. They feel like bad period cramps, but they only last for about 5 minutes and only happen once or twice a day. With my period cramps were more dukl and could last hours. The pregnancy cramps lasted about 3 weeks into my pregnancy and now they are gone. I'm 8 weeks and days. At that point, my biggest symptoms were extreme fatigue (think jet lag when you fly several time zones from home on the red eye) and my boobs actually hurt waaaaay less than they normally do when I'm expecting my period. Now they hurt more. Hopefully that helps!

Answer

I been having cramping the last two days as well and I don't start my period until next Monday. This is making me think I am pregnant for the third time. I have one daughter and I had a miscarriage in December. The last time I was pregnant I didn't have any symptoms at all this time I am feeling off like I may be pregnant or my period is coming early. If you took the tests and they all came back with a positive then I will tell you it's a positive. I think you should make a doctor appointment. The symptoms are very similar between early pregnancy and periods
