TTC... cramps before missed period?

Dana

Can you have cramps before a missed period?

I feel like I might have period cramps but not sure... We are TTC. Had a MC and D&C 8 weeks ago, period returned 4 weeks after and we began trying again after that. This week is a big week as I am supposed to get my period. So far nothing but i feel like I could have pre-period cramps. Maybe paranoia or maybe normal even if we are pregnant... Thoughts? Can anyone else relate?
