Stretching/Pulling sensation in stomach at 10 DPO?

I have heard of others post that they had a stretching or pulling senation in their stomach prior to getting a BFP.   I was wondering if anyone could confirm this and tell me what it exactly felt like.  I have had some strange fellings in my abdominal region and I will try to describe them:

My lower stomach (below my belly button) feels tight and sometimes, when I move a certain way it feels like I am having muscle cramps or a stabbing sensation.  The cramping/stabbing senation is isolated on one side and like I said only happens when I move a certain way.  

Just wondering if this could be related to pregnancy or if I am just hoping - Thanks, Karen

No it doesn't sound crazy.  I tested this morning with first morning urine and it was so very faint.  I know that if I tested any other time it probably would have been a BFN.  I would definitely wait.  Good luck and keep me posted!
