Have any of you had af symptoms but got a BFP?

We've been TTC for many months now. Every month I get my hopes up only to start cramping about 5 days before af is due and then she arrives

I've only ever read about this and have never actually spoken to or heard about any friends who've had cramping before a bfp.

I used to just have one day of disappointment - the day I tested and got a BFN but now it's nearly a week since thats how early the cramping starts.

Have any of you experienced cramping but got a BFP?

Appreciate any thoughts, thanks.

I did. Period was due on the Monday and I felt all week it was going to start any time, lots of tummy aches. On the Friday evening I did a test to rule out pregnancy and got a positive result.

Good luck.

Yes, all three times I was certain I was getting my period.

Thank you all so much for posting. I feel better already

I know it may still take a while and af might visit a few more times but at least I can stay upbeat and hopeful for a little longer every month now.
