How early do period cramps and bloating start before it’s due?

24 October 2009 5 Responses

A Parent asks, My period is due in 7 days. Have been very tired, enough to where I fall asleep sitting up. This could be beause of my ear ache. However, I have small headaches and feel bloated and crampy. I don’t remeber this this far away from my period though. I know sometimes it happens like 2 days before I start. Is this just because of a sinus infection and ear ache or could I be pregnant?

    PMS symptoms could happen up to 2 weeks before your due period. If you are pregnant you have to wait and see.

    every woman is different, so every women get different signs and symptoms.

    Just take a test when your AF is due.

    Good Luck
