Could The Cramps Be Due To Pregnancy?

Hi, Monday through Wednesday I began to become really thirsty and tired. I drank so much water I had to pee a lot. Last night I got about twelve hours of sleep.(I needed it) and woke up feeling fine. Then later I got cramps underneath my ribs. Would these be pregnancy cramps? It's still 2 weeks till my period. And I believe the reason for my thirst is because I drank nearly no water, just sodas for about 5 days. Do you think I'm pregnant?

Hi,
Pregnancy, on the first hand, can happen only with an intercourse, essentially unprotected, during the fertile or ovulatory phase of the menstrual cycle, and this is two weeks from your next menstrual cycle. So, you have absolutely no chance of conception as you are just into your fertile period and you do not seem to have had an intercourse during this period. It could be just that you were dehydrated and demineralized. Cramps underneath the ribs could be related more to the gastro-intestinal system as uterine or tubal cramps are felt in the pelvis. Hope this helps.
