Cramps before AF

Hello

Has anyone ever gotten cramps a week before af? I’ve had cramps for about 5 days. Last night they felt intense as if AF Was showing up. It’s not due for another 5 days. I keep testing negative. But I’m hoping to get my bfp. I’ve never cramped before af. My only indication of Af arriving is sore breast. I usually get sore breast about 5 days before AF faithfully every month. Has this ever happened to anyone before their bfp? I’d love to hear your stories.
