Cramping, but no period Pregnant? - tested negative

[durhamjk1]

Hi! I was just wondering if anybody has every experienced this or something like this.  My husband and I have been trying to conceive since November 2007, which is when  I went of the pill.  I have had regular periods, since then in November and December (always with in 3 days of 32 day cycle), but now I have not had a period in January and it is now february.  I am 7 days late for typical cycle, my pregnancy tests were negative (i took 2), but I have been experiencing cramping (somewhat lighter than when on period).  No spotting or anything else unusual.  I actually saw the ob/gyn on 1/23/08 to see if everything was ok to conceive and he said yes.  Just wondering if anyone had any comments on this or if they had similar scenarios.

sometimes it can take a while for it to show up on HPT.  You might want to wait a week or so and test again.  I experienced cramping at the very beginning of my pregnancy.  Good luck!!

I had cramping in early January, took a pregnancy test that came up negative. Didn't think anything of it until I realized two more weeks had gone by and I still didn't have my period--took a test on the 22nd and it came back positive! I think the first test was just too soon. I've had light cramps off and on the whole month!
Good luck with your next test!
