I've been doing the same thing for the last week. Every time I go to the bathroom I expect to see blood, but there never is. By the way the morning sickness is a great sign!
thanks to all for your response. i am hoping that it is just something normal. i think because of the other miscarriages, i am on edge and am probably making a big deal out of nothing. i keep going to the bathrooom to check for blood or any brown spotting. ugh! i just wish i wasnt worried about any of this. i am trying really hard to keep my mind off being pregnant and just go about my days like nothing is going on, but its hard. ive always tried to tell myself in the past that everything was okay, and then i would miscarry. i sooo hope that this time is different
im having morning sickness today. bleh.
I had period like cramping the weekend AF was due, so I figured I was just getting AF. Well AF never showed so I tested and it was BFP. I continued to have period like cramping (not enough that I needed to curl up in a ball or anything) for probably the next 2 weeks. I was concerned but the doctor kept telling me it was normal. I too have had a m/c in the past where cramping was the first sign, but with this pregnancy I had the doctor draw my blood and do the hcg count- then do it again a few days later to make sure my levels were rising properly. That's what helped put me at ease, especially since I wasn't going to be seen for an u/s until I was 9-10 weeks along. Good luck, just be in touch with your doctor and trust your instincts.
I tested on Monday and started having cramps the next day. Because of my previous loss I have also been freaking out, but..... everyone seems to think that mild cramps are very normal. Even with the cramps my numbers are going up.
If you are anything like me, knowing this won't actualy make you stop worring. I only hope that this brings you some comfort and reassurance. Go on the Sept forum and I think most of us have had some mild cramps.
Feel better!
Cramping is VERY normal early in pregnancy as long as it isn't too painful, it should be a dull achy cramp, almost like period cramps but not quite as painful. Try and relax :)

Try your hardest to not worry too much until you know for sure, but cramping is normal. Everyone is different and cramping might feel different for you. Yes, the mind is a powerful thing so try not to overthink things or it will play tricks on you. Go to the doctor and get checked, if it will help you rest easier :) Good luck!
with my first when it was time for my period i had period like cramps too. Everything was fine.
Try and relax hun! I know its difficult...having been through many M/C's...but your body needs as much rest and relaxation as possible. Think of the transition it's going through right now. Cramping is normal, especially in early Pregnancy...it can feel Period like and it could feel completely different...everyones experience is different. I remember having some period like cramps...and than a couple weeks afterwards the cramping felt completely opposite. So I wouldn't worry! You could take another test tomorrow just to make you feel better and see that BFP again. Or like Army said, schedule a blood test, the HCG never lies!
But either way, you're okay and just nervous because of the past. I was the same way...I still worry and I'm 37 weeks! It's just part of mommyhood :) Put on a good movie, put your feet up...everything will be okay :)
Ps I'm sorry I mis read it I thought you said bfn. Yikes I have no brain. Anyway I would def get in and have some bloodwork done and take another test a digital one it can't hurt. Try not to panic. I'm here if you need to talk.....

I would re test again you may not be pg. If you still think you are pg have your blood drawn. I woudln't freak out until you know you are pg. I'm 12 wks and 6 days pg and I have cramping everyday with bleeding and my baby is fine. Bleeding and cramping is normal in pg. I have suffered 6 m/cs I know it's hard not to freak out over every twinge but there comes a point where you have to let yourself really enjoy things. Sometimes we can't control what happens. I know it's easier said than done. I hope things work out for the best for you take care and let me know what happens.....
Hugs,
