Hi there, just wondering if anyone had a BFP after having bad period like cramps day 4? This is my 8th cycle and I can't recall having anything like this before. Feels like my adenomyosis period like pains... feeling disheartened. Have felt like this since early arvo and can't shake it.

Me! ✋I thought my period was coming. Started on day 4 and then again on day 6 and 8. My worse pain was day 4, I even had to take some paracetamol. On day 4 and 7 i had some spotting too. Turns out it was implantation bleeding and the cramps were just normal, apparently it's the uterus stretching after implantation. I got my BFP this cycle. Fingers crossed you do, too! Xx

I got the most intense cramps during the early hours of of 2dp FET- they woke me up in the night and felt like terrible period pains. They only lasted around half an hour but they were a bit worrying. I also got a tiny bit of spotting. Because of this and a mix up with my meds, I thought it hadn't worked and tested the following afternoon (not entirely sure of the logic there) and got a BFP. It could all have been coincidence or side effects from the meds (even something I ate). I also had two previous early BFPs and didn't get this, but for me on this one I took it as a sign of implantation. Best of luck!

At the beginning of my first pregnancy I had cramps and thought my period was coming on and the cramps got so bad I went for a scan-and there was the yolk sac! So cramps are very much a sign of pregnancy. Not helpful when they also signify a period! It’s the lack of blood that signifies pregnancy
