Would I still be bloated and cramping?

Question

I've been bloated and cramping since the day after I TTC untill 9dpo. Today is 11dpo and I'm expecting my period anytime between Sunday and Tuesday. The bloating and cramping started to go away yesterday. If I wasn't pregnant and was due to start my period, would I probably be bloated and cramping right up untill I did start? I can't remember if that happened last month or not.

Answer 1

I am honestly not sure but I am going through the same thing. I am due to start af this friday. With my last two kids I had a different kind of cramping even before af was missed and I had the same kind of cramping this month so I'm hoping that means I will get the bfp soon. My pre menstrual cramps are in my belly and constant but this month as well as with my last 2 pregnancies, they were much lower, more towards my privates and shooting pains. Also I was really bloated all of last week and when I woke up this morning, my cramps were gone and so is my belly! Hopefully this is our month so baby dust to us both and all of the other ttc'ers on here. (Just don't test too soon, I tested today and got the bfn which really has me down, I'm hoping it was just too early. With my first child i got the bfp 4 days before missed af but with my second I didn't get the bfp until 10 days after missed af and I was testing every other day.

Answer 2

I thought for sure my period was coming, but after a day of bad cramping (i remember yelling cause of a few shooting cramps) and no AF I just had a feeling it wasn't coming. These were bad cramps, not like I had felt before, then in the 2 days that followed they became weaker and more normal. On the 3rd night of waiting for AF I got my BFP.

It was pretty tricky for me, my positive came 3 days after I was supposed to start and my PMS always mimicked pregnancy symptoms.

Good Luck and baby dust
