I'm suppose to start my period in 3 days (approx.-my cycle isn't always regular) I keep getting a cramping/pinching feeling in my lower abdomen on the right side. It feels that same as when I'm ovulating. Could I be pregnant? what is this?

I had the same thing and was wondering why I would have cramping near my ovary before my period. I haven't bothered to look it up yet, though. I'll let you know if I find out what it is. Btw, I'm not pregnant. AF arrived yesterday.

Hi I rec my BFP last Thurs 15 dpo. I had what felt like ov cramps 7dpo I think it was implantation. Had cramps again the day af should have come 14dpo and then 2 days later at 16dpo. Hope this helps.

Koden.....I'm due for my AF (period) in 3-4 days also. I had those same pains at 7 dpo for a few hours....and now at 11 dpo too. I'm also having watery and ewCM today, which I've never had before....but I think some women have fertile cm right before AF....so who knows? I pray we both are!!

Hi, I'm 11dpo and af is due in 3days too. I tested today and it was bfn. But yesterday and today I've had on and off cramping too. Not really like af cramps though bcause they don't really hurt, it's just like twinges. Like I'm very aware of my pelvis, i know sounds crazy, but its hard to explain. Last night I was standing up and stretched upward and it caught right in my left side of my pelvis, like a knife jab. Quick but hurt! Hmmm. I've got lots of tests that are calling my name, so I'll probably test like everyday. Good luck to all you guys. Sounds like we're all pretty much in the same boat.

I took a test today too and it was - . I know exactly what your talking about the knife pain. I slept horrible last night because of that. I would move just right and it would hurt!! I'm also getting these weird hot flashes. I'll be fine one minute and burning up the next!

You know I slept horrible last night too. I fell asleep really fast and was out like a light, but then woke up at 3 -had to pee, then woke up later burning up so hot, then later I was cold, and just tossed and turned all night.. It was awful. I'm still having the slight cramping.

That was my exact night!! fell asleep at 8:30, woke up sweating, had to pee, then freezing, pains in my abd. it was horrible. I've had the cramping on and off a lot today. I'm confused?

Well lets just hope its a good sign for both of us. I didn't really have the cramping during the night. But while I was working yesterday evening and night and today I have. Is yours like af cramps? Mine aren't that intense, just mild, twingy. I don't know how to describe it. Not painful.

By the way, I took a test today too, it was bfn also.

My pains are like pinches or stretching. It's hard to describe. Still no AF yet. I always start in the mornings, and nothing this morning. I do feel very nauseous this morning though......now I'm beginning to wonder.....do you know how early is too early to test?? and is morning tests really better?

If you are testing early, then moring pe is the best since it is more concentrated.

Thanks! Does it have to be the 1st when you wake up, or can it be late morning?
