I never get period cramps, but I've had cramping off and on this week. It's always on the right side low. Is that a period cramp?
-
Maybe? It could be almost anything though! My period cramps are usually in the center of my lower abdomen.
-
If it's concentrated on one side that sounds more like ovulation pain to me.
-
@MamaMoose: I usually get ovulation cramps higher and I'm past O.
-
Sounds like normal early pregnancy cramping. LO is just settling in.
ETA: For some reason I thought you already had your bfp, lol. It's a good sign, if you haven't had it, yet! It could be implantation.
-
For me it is different from cycle to cycle. Sometimes it is a dull ache all over and sometimes it is intense and very centered.
-
@littlek: Then in that case it definitely could be implantation cramping.
-
@MamaMoose: I hope so....
-
My AF cramping is like a dull ache all the way across my abdomen, from hip to hip. Sometimes if it gets bad it feels like a squeezing sensation in the middle, slightly over to the left as my uterus lies slightly that way. It doesn't sound like what you are describing.
-
AF cramping to me is more in the middle, ovulation on one side, and implantation on one side but lower
good luck!
-
it varies so much for me, sometimes in center abdomen, sometimes it's back and sometimes it's like a muscle ache from my back to my thighs.
crossing fingers for you!!
-
I get period cramps in my lower back...not in my abdomen. But it usually feels like a dull ache, or if they're really bad, just an ache. My implantation/pregnancy aches so far have been in my abdomen and feel more like stretching/pulling.
-
@littlek: NEVER had period cramps? Oh my, you are a lucky lady!! I had them so bad in my teens/early 20's that I thought I was dying.
-
@CatchAFallingStar: No, I'm weird... I also don't get headaches
-
@littlek: Wow. You are just the luckiest! I'm guessing that if you've never had cramps and you're having them now, that's a darn good sign!! How many DPO are you??
-
my period cramps are never on just one side. cramping during early pregnancy, however, were. i think it's a good sign!
-
@CatchAFallingStar: I'm 11 DPO.. but they started around 7 DPO..
-
@littlek: hoping to hear some good news from you soon!!! I never got period cramps until I had LO. When people told me early labor felt like period cramps x100 I was like "what's a period cramp feel like???" Now I get bad back pain and abdominal cramping since having LO
-
@littlek: Too early to test? Maybe you should!
-
@littlek: Sounds promising!!!
-
@littlek: Test yet?
-
Nope, AF showed up this morning..
-
@littlek:
I'm sorry...
-
@pui: Thanks
It sucks but oh well.. not my month.. I'm hopeful for an October baby.
good luck!
I'm sorry...
