    Hi all,

    I am in very early stages of pregnancy (2.5 weeks) and am having very light cramping that comes and goes... no bleeding! Due my period today/tomorrow... have done about 10 home tests and all positive - doctors test couldnt detect as he says the home tests are more sensitive...

    Has anyone else had cramping in first month? I'm terrified of chemical pregnancy....

    Anyone else had this?

    Thanks

    Kelly

    I had period like cramps the day my period was due. That period never arrived though and I had a positive test that evening and a baby girl 8 months later.

    I didn't go to the gp until I was five weeks. Depending on your cycle, if your period is due today you should be around four weeks now as you count from the first day of your last period

    Try to relax and look after yourself. Go back to the gp next week. My GP didn't get me to test and just took my word

    Just give it a couple of days to try the test again, as the hormones will have more time to accumulate in your system. Otherwise you'll find out in a couple of weeks if your period comes or not, though easier said than done, when you're exciting or worried.
    If you're worried your cramping is something serious, then see your GP. There's no way to know why you could be having cramps as everyone's pregnancy experience is different.. could be implantation, or could be something else. It would be just speculation on anyone's part here.

    I got implantation cramps and spotting around when my period was due. The cramps were a bit stronger than the usual 'period on the way' cramps and came and went a few times. Sounds like you are pregnant to me!
