Fi,<br><br>definitely try not to dwell on them, because I and lots of others have said how we thought AF was due because of the cramping pains, only to find that we were pregnant.<br><br>I've got everything crossed for you for a positive result.<br><br>Take care,<br>Suzanne.x

Oh Fi,<br>Don't give up yet, you may be feeling hormonal because you are :-) (and maybe in a good way). I felt dreadful before my test with a stomach that could have been mistaken for being 6 months.. I've had some form of bleeding every day since week 5 and am now almost 12 weeks, so don't give up hope yet. So many people on this site seem to feel like you are so as Suzanne says - don't dwell too much - you'll only drive yourself crazy. I know its hard, but I just wanted to say I'm thinking about you.<br>Take it easy this weekend<br>Zoe x

Fi<br><br>PMA, PMA, PMA - it ain't over yet honey!! Cramping and AF pains do not necessarily mean that AF is on it's way. Our bodies can be very cruel to us at times!<br><br>You spend the weekend chilling out and thinking positive. Monday will come round soon enough and I'll be praying that you get a positive.<br><br>Take care, Helen xx<br><br>PS - thanks for your note on the other side. I think you've got enough to worry about without me adding my sorrows. :-)

Don't you dare think it's over yet! Even if you do get blood, think of all of the others who have shared the same story, thinking they were through, only to find out they were pregnant! Ask women close to you about their own (natural prego) stories, and I bet you'll find women who bled as well. My sister bled her first month with her dauther and my girlfriend (due to deliver next week) bled through much of her pregnancy - practically every month!<br><br>I'll be thinking about you and sending you lots of PMA. Hang-in there!

HI Fi<br>try to stay positive so many people have had af type pains and still been pg.<br><br>What day are you on - I think some hpt tests you can do from about day 12 - if I remember correctly- that is of course if you really do want to do a test this weekend. I kind of know I would tho!<br><br>Remember tho IF it is -ve it maybe that you have tested too soon.<br><br>Sure you know all this - but thought I'd just chip in to send best wishes<br><br>cazxx<br><br>

Hi Fi<br><br>Just wanted you to know am thinking of you. These last few days before "D" day are a living hell. The treatmeant I can cope with but I know how hard it is for you waiting and wondering and wanting it over yet at the same time balancing all these emotions.<br><br>I don't know what you should do re the test...tricky is n't it? <br>I am always inclined to leave it until the day itself but to be honest am always bleeding heavily by then anyway.<br>What about Monday after work? or don't you want to wait that long?<br>Whatever you decide am keeping my fingers crossed for you and as everyone else says all these aches and pains mean nothing.<br><br>By the way yes you are a hormonally imbalanced and crazy woman, but we are all in that boat!<br>Love Gracexx<br><br>

Fi,<br>Dont give up hope, I had AF pains, on day 11 thought for sure I was going to come on, but didnt got to day 14 and did a predictor test, and it showed the feintest of pink spots, so still didnt dare hope, but on day 16 when I went for blood test, it was possitive.<br>And since then I've been having Af type pains on and off, and I'm 7 and half weeks.<br>Keep Happy<br>Charlotte x
